Power: Regarding power, some people have it, some people don't.
Gremlin very solidly has power, in it's smallest incarnation that power resides in his operation of this board.
A few thousand lurkers may have noticed that between now and 5:00 PM mountain standard a post has vanished into oblivion.
I fully support the decisions of the webmaster to add or subtract anything he so desires at any time.
However I'm currently unable to ascertain the reason behind the deletion of my most recent post.
I prevaricated nothing and simply laid out some facts for the perusal of whomever might happen in.
But Gremlin did utilise his power to remove it and I can respect that.

Pride: Pride is funny, again some people have it, some people don't. Some people have far too much of it and actually believe they can get away with virtually anything and no one will call them on it.
Some people exist solely to call them on it.
I am one of those people. Letting people know they're not invincible or untouchable is part of what I do. What I have done. And what i will continue to do.
In most cases, these are merely idiots that perpetuate myths at me.
In still more cases these are people that in some way threaten the well being of those I consider friends.
I have never attacked an undeserving target and especially never attacked someone within my group of friends without knowing precisely what I was on about.
In the coming weeks, days, maybe even minutes depending on how this all works, those involved will remember my track record for never letting them down and never lying to them.

Delusion: Delusion is one of those things people create(however unconsciously they may do so) in order to accept the things around them and some of the more unacceptable things they do. I have no use for delusion.
Typically the people I run across that are delusional are those that would somehow bring harm to my lot.
As stated, I cannot stand for that.
The problem with delusional people is that, in whatever order it occurs, they actually believe their own lies.
Wether it's a lie they make up on purpose and perpetuate so often it becomes true to them, or a delusion they have and are unconscious of the fact that it never happened that way.
Delusional people typically lie, but typically aren't aware of that fact.
Delusional people annoy me.

If my help, is not appreciated in threatening manners, my ability to find out things that I shouldn't be able to in order to progress the lives and wellbeing of those around me unwanted, then so be it.
I work well, and work cheap, but not under those kinds of circumstances.

So, support rescinded.
No need to help those that refuse to see.
