- The Nightstalker looks pensive. He kneels down on the floor of the bar
- and speaks.
-
- "This is instead of getting up on a soapbox. Let me state, that this
- is not meant to be a flame, but a comment that I have to make to Stm.
- I want you to say what it is you feel you have to say, but not to say
- what you think I have said. You put words in my mouth in replies to
- my posts. I never said 'evil scum', you put that into my mouth. I
- never said that freedom of speech for you is censoring me, you said
- that. What freedom of speech for you seems to be, is to be nasty
- and hurtful, to not only state disagreements, but to be spiteful. I
- am not the only one to recieve such treatment either. Why are you
- so nasty? Is Carl like that in RL? Just because we are only connected
- by some VR link, does that give you any right to be rude? I don't dislike
- you, but the Stm I know is just a wall of hate, that is all I see.
-
- I don't read your posts so I wont be inflamed or hurt by what you say. I
- only saw bits of what you had said in others posts. I had to state that
- you have hurt me often. I turn the other cheek, but I had to say it.
- I don't want callahans to be a battle ground with anyone, but this is a
- public declaration that I think that you could be less agressive towards
- this group. You have had chance to pick me to bits, this is the only
- comment I have to make in return."
-
- The Nightstalker gets up, sighs, and disappears into a dark corner of
- the bar.
