because

I want you to read the post instead of saying ''oh that guy'' and not even trying to read it. that's why I do it. I am guilty of that very thing myself.
there are posters that I choose not to read. Not because I don't like their post, it's more the time to read the material, that's why i do it.mahalo and happy posting

I have a question-

Why do you have to read our username twice? If the post is on a subject that interests you, you probably read the post anyway. The username is on the bottom. When you read letters to the editor in the paper, is the writers name on top or bottom?

THANKS FOR ANSWERING

All of your answers made sense to me. It's not fair, (on my part), but I have a tendency to read posters that I have come to appreciate. That's not always fair, is it? I need to learn all the personalities of the neighborhood I want to be a part of.
I guess I need to admit that I've also learned lessons from the people that have been less than kind, as well! Their posts sometimes have merit, too. It's made my blood boil; it's made me think. Some posters are jerks, but honest & willing to take on that reputation. I respect that, but will continue to say my piece when I disagree!
I still have a problem w/ the multiple poster idea? I still want to be able to know the personality of the person I'm talking to. I can adjust; I got a couple multiples pegged. Just wish I didn't have to.
Slowly, but surely I'm getting it. The computer world is so different than real life, isn't it? Thanks for your understanding & your patience!

Thank you-

for answering. I admit to using multiple usernames in the past. I was barred just recently. Thanks to a poster or so here, I was reinstated after I agreed to post as nedl. I intend to keep that promise if I decide to keep posting.
I hope you don't let the BS here discourage you from posting. I for one, enjoy your to-the-point style and gotta say you add much to this board.
I know I have mood swings, from a-hole to so-so. It's not old age. It's been a life-long affliction. My old crew used to tell me I was a lot nicer guy when I was drinking. I can't drink anymore so I guess I'm stuck on jerk.
I'm babbling so I'll just say happy new year to all in case I don't return.
