The Ed Forum is having a total Meltdown and chicken bones!

[Martin Weidmann]

And what "personal attacks" would those be?

Why you did not reply to my post on this forum and engaged in a proper discussion, only to copy my post to your site and "reply" to it there?

[David Von Pein]

I share your sentiment, Colin.

Sure, David can do on his site what he wants, but when he does not engage in the actual conversation on this forum and [then] uses one of my posts to attack and ridicule on his own site, where I have no way to reply, he's pushing it IMO

I would like to find out which post Martin is referring to. (I'm genuinely curious.)

Because I sure don't remember posting something to my site only (when I could have ALSO responded at this forum too). That seems unlikely that I would have done that. And I've been a member here since Feb. 2009.*

* But, of course, trying to track down whether I said a particular thing on this forum or not in the past has now become an impossible task because of the January 2018 crash-and-burn. So most of the pre-2018 posts are lost forever, unfortunately (except for a few I've been able to rescue via the Wayback Machine).

It's easy nevertheless, David. You have full control over your own website and you should be able to find the postings under my name and take it from there.

I have to say that, after all this time, I don't actually recall the post(s) either. I just remember seeing them on your site, but you have a possibility to prove me wrong. If I am wrong, which I don't think I am, I will gladly admit so and apologize. It's in your hands

[John Mytton]

but it's pretty obvious you have great difficulty answer a simple question honestly.... 

You asked me a self indulgent question and I gave you an honest reply and let me repeat this because it's so important, "I don't care what you think you are" and I doubt that anybody else does either. What a person argues, who they attack and the accusations that are made, that defines who that person is and there is nothing that I can do to change that reality.

John,

Please, try to stay out of this conversation. Your opinion means nothing to me.

Exactly, now look in the mirror

Which is why I provided this "Weidmann" search link in my last post. (And you've got to hit "Next Posts" at the bottom of that page to see all of the posts that contain the name "Weidmann". And maybe one or two more "pages" beyond that too.) I thought the post might ring a bell with you if you saw it. It's certainly not going to ring any "bell" with me. And, as I said, there's no longer any possible way to cross-check my site's archives with old posts from this forum, because the pre-2018 threads are now lost forever due to the hacking episode last year.* So it will be impossible for me to "prove you wrong" (although wrong you may very well be in this particular instance).

* Which is one reason why my pre-2018 posts archived at my site are more valuable now, because it's probably the only place on the Web where those discussions (or partial discussions, at least) that started out at this forum can now be found. (No need to thank me for this valuable online forum-archiving service. I've been happy to do it.)
