This is for Tony.
         Tony,
         I just wanted bring up a point to you. Mike and I have known Christian for years now. By no means have we ever been best friends or anything, nor have we hung out together besides the PTQ they went to together and the Hobby Horse. I know that he has hung out with you and others though. Never during our years of knowing Christian have we ever heard that he has Dandy-Walker Syndrome. I am not saying that he doesn't, but who are you to tell the world? If Christian had wanted others to know I think he should be the one to share this information with the people he chooses to share it with. If you know this for a fact, then he untrusted you with this information. I would view this as disrespect to a friend for makiing this public knowledge through something that had nothing to do with you. Regardless, I'm not going to re-hash the entire incident. By no means am I trying to say this is an reason for occurances because I had no knowledge of Dandy-Walker Syndrome, and it very well could have been. Because of my misinformation of the Syndrome I have looked it up. I believe that the best way for people to understand something is through research. I do not mean to exploit, but I also feel that people should be informed, because "knowing is half the battle." Therefore, I have posted a link at the bottom of this post to a web page which covers the syndrome. Diabetes is something that is apparent to all of the Hobby Horse patrons due to his shot taking and such. Dandy-Walker Syndrome is apparently not as noticable.
         All in all, I feel that you are just a confrontationalist and feel left out of many of the discussions so you feel as though you have to put your two cents in. I hope you feel better now after exploiting something that was not common knowledge to many people about a friend to others that really had no right to know this without Christian stating this to the person for a reason. But for the sake of your friend I would suggest you really think about how this could affect him, if it does, and if you really had the right to say anything at all.
        
        For anyone which would like to understand Dandy-Walker Syndrome here is the website:

        Knowledge is power!

         Apparently I don't feel left out of this discussion. Usually I try to excel and put a buck fifty in.
         Such pretentious rubbish. How dare you use Christian as a shield to hide behind, so you can insult me. Your problem is with me not anyone else. Everything you said about me can be used directly at you for making excuses for Mike's cheating. The only one to look the fool is you, so bugger off.

         Just to inform you, I didn't use him as a shield. If I truly felt that I must insult you I just simply would. But as I stated, I feel you crossed the boundry by making it public knowledge. It also seems that only a slim few "believe" that Mike is cheating. Also, I'm definitely not hiding. I'm sorry that you are so confused about my mentioning of you, and that you feel this in an attack. Apparently anyone on here can voice their opinion, so I am stating mine. If you don't like it, you don't have to read it. :)

         So....
         You post a topic called "This is for Tony", voice a (illogical) complaint, and then tell him if he doesn't like it, he doesn't have to read it. Wow.
        
         In regards to people responding in topics that don't concern them (like what I'm doing right now): This is a Public Forum. Putting your two cents in a conversation that has nothing to do with you is the rule, not the exception.

         Hi Josh. By the way, how's the Bladder Exstrophy-Epispadias-Cloacal Exstrophy Complex doing? Not affecting any of your games is it? ;> <--- This symbol, that I'm pointing at, means I'm winking as if in jest.

         Welcome in Josh. Apparently the point has been missed. I just simply thought that it was a little disrespectful for friend to give information our like that. It doesn't matter what I say, the point is not understood from the other side. But, Christian will no longer be referenced to, it was more about the jabs Tony has been taking all along, trying to reinforce his point. As for Tony, he will never understand. As for Josh, I have no problems with you. You are probably one of them I respect the most at this point, besides Banks. I do understand this is a public forum and that is cool, but I thought the point of the website was for magic and magic related issues. What I mean by don't read is just simply if you don't like my opinion or thoughts, why even bother clicking the thread to see what is there?

         I understand enough to know that not everybody can take a joke. I prefer rabbit punches to jabs. What's not magic-related about diseases influencing players during the game? Usually when somebody writes "This is for Tony." I tend to check it out. Being a public forum, others will read too.
