Hey, maybe I'm wrong, but something is giving me the feeling, Nursefeet, that you won't be booking any Barcelo resorts any time soon.........

Too bad cuz lots of people seem to enjoy them.

I can appreciate that you dont like how someone may post...However you have now branded yourself as a not so nice person...We on the board would hope that if you dont like something or someone that you would at least have enough respect to keep your childish comments to yourself....If you cant play nice....DONT PLAY!!!!! not agreeing is one thing and having a different opinion is another but being that rude is just not called for....Please refrain from this posting style in the future....

Kinda harsh there sunseekers perhaps you would like to edit my posts before I post them, would you prefer them via email or PM. Jeesh I did not think expressing my opinion would elicit such an attack, perhaps you should heed your own advice.

something about casting stones comes to mind but whatever....

as far as refraining from posting, if others feel the same as you I will leave and not return, dont want to be somewhere I am not wanted.

This is what I was talking about...It is okay for you to tell someone to go away....I am just saying to Play Nice....or DONT PLAY....There is no need for an all out attack....I didnt think I was attacking you at all...Just saying show a little respect....if you dont like what someone has posted...go to the next....a different opinion is okay but not an attack....just keep it up beat and friendly or ignore it....Lord knows I have ignored hundreds of post's because of the same reason you stated......

One could easily get the impression that you don't really want an answer to your questions... You have essentially posted questions before, and they have been answered by people on this board.. You then post the question again, using words which would imply you are trying to provoke an argument or flaming.. However, I am sure that is not the case...

Unfortunately, or fortunately, depends on one's personality, I am not the sort to "ignore" things like this person. I am a relative newcomer to these parts and as such I guess I still have more to learn about how things work around here. I appreciate your not calling for my immediate beheading outright however, I still take umbrage at your claim of "childishness" (there were a lot of other words besides uncouth I considered using and refrained, rather adultishness I thought) and as far as branding myself as "a not so nice person" I would say that is your interpretation (I am an extremely nice person, I love kitties, puppies, babies and butterflies, not neccesseraly in that order)...that said I will take note of your advice and perhaps think a little more before I respond to an annoyng post, I do however stand 100% behind what I said to the person who started this thread...no regrets...no apologies and certianly no retractions or edits...this is who I am and I guess you have to take the good with the bad.

Judging by your response to me I would gather that you hold similar importance for stating your mind and calling to task those whom you feel offend. Having read numerous posts by that person I felt the time and opportunity were right to express my displeasure, harshly perhaps...too harshly perhaps as well...

ps. my favorite part was the 'shhhhh just shhhhh' ...did I take it too far?

Hola Tommy my pal!

Listen, thanks foir trying to deflame this thread while I was busy doing the work thing but I want to say something........

I think lovetheheat has hit the nail on the head with this post:

One could easily get the impression that you don't really want an answer to your questions... You have essentially posted questions before, and they have been answered by people on this board.. You then post the question again, using words which would imply you are trying to provoke an argument or flaming.. However, I am sure that is not the case...

And I think that this IS the case.

I'll state it again...

Nursefeet, I don't know what your agenda is here but I honestly don't think you're looking for answers to your questions. What I think you ARE doing is trying to make waves. I think you have some kind of personal agenda against the Barcelo or are trying to start one. Not sure if you're a troll, not sure if you have something against someone personally and I don't feel like trying to figure you out either.

And IF I'm wrong (but I doubt it)........

You don't seem to want to understand how this forum is conducted nor do you seem to really want the help from the good folks who have already taken their time to answer your numerous questions. All of your Barcelo questions could have been asked in one thread and could have been easily titled "Questions regarding the Barcelo" or something similar. There is not a need to start multiple threads to ask "if the hotel is crappy" or the "service stinks and the food is bad". Just that kind of writing style is bound to cause problems.

As a moderator, and as a frequent poster and reader in this AI forum, I would really appreciate it if you would tone down the nature of your posts and ask more appropriate questions with complete subject titles.

I'm closing this thread and I won't hesitate to close any more that I see starting to go off track and become confrontational.

This is a NICE BOARD, with NICE, HELPFUL people who all take time out of their otherwise busy days to answer questions for others who really need those answers. Please don't make them waste their time.
