I have, that's why I've posted four paragraphs in response.

You posted the story, pal.

[gi_dan2987]

You're correct, I did. You've made your point, thank you. The world is now a better place.

I would rather have been on the Eastern Front. The chances of surviving were better.

On the other hand
1) Better rations.
2) More frequent leaves and in better places.
3) Better pay.
4) Better chances of a quick death.

I see what you're trying to do. I'm not being sour, I'm just politely expressing my lack of will to continue this conversation, as you seem to be one of those individuals who has to come out on top with everything, even on a forum. To you, simply "winning" is your end game. In a discussion like this, that means having the last word, as you have done. Congratulations, I'm sure you have a sense of inflated accomplishment now.

He was an old man, probably deranged and clouded by years on his mind. I was simply sharing something that I heard from a vet, and being the person you are, had to dive in guns blazing and shoot my thread to pieces over it. Nobody asked you to, but because you were so inclined to grace us with your presence, I felt the need to write this one final message to you in closure. Have fun interjecting on other threads! Just a fair warning though, Neal's moderators watch out for people such as yourself. You'll find yourself keelhauled before long.

I just love it when non-donating stowaways feel they have the right to bust in on a thread and tear it up as they see fit. No respect anymore these days. For being somebody that just signed up in October, you sure have a lot to say!

Wow, what just happened here?

I just thanked you for sharing.

Why all the hostility and the insults? Why so sour?

How about sitting out a few plays to regather yourself, and think about what your saying?

I've said all I needed to say. He came in here shooting up my thread, I've spoken my piece, and this has been reported. No skin off my back!

Yes and my response was with reference to the post report I received.

Look pal, if you're going to post unbelievable stories about uboats in here, then be mentally ready for some feedback. If you aren't ready for some feedback with facts, then perhaps you should take your insults elsewhere.

That's why we are here. We live the uboat life in simulation, and we know uboat nonsense when we see it. No offense.

Ok, well for the record, I've stated what I've needed to state. Thank you for your consideration in this matter.

Btw, the guy who started this thread seems to hold a grudge to extreme levels. He just sent me this PM:

Nobody asked you to come in here and give your opinion. Had I wanted your opinion on this story, I would've asked for it. You've insulted the deceased man behind the story, not me. For that I find you deplorable.

You may be talking about a video game, but I'm talking about a real life story, whether real or not. Try to play it off as much as you wish, but remember where you are. You are a non-donating unsubscribed member of a heavily moderated forum, with only 2 months here. Don't think for a second that that will not be considered by the moderators.

I urge you to continue flaming posts by subscribed members and see what happens.


So be weary...

He may be capable of dangerous things.
