I saw that. He was rude to me too. I think maybe it was an intentional plea to get more points or for attention. I have encountered a lot of hostility on here recently. It isn't good.

Like retired first, you have been tired.

@jorj
Who said so ?

Think they miss understood the process. They did not redact but then understood.

@jorj, @azzow2
I never had any problems with it ?

Read the profile no age they claimed to be a Grad student figured macho attitude l left him slide will watch how he acts in the future.

They did not understand about greeters. I just looked in my in box and that statement I had with quotes around it was the first words. To me.

greeters have a standard greeting they have written which i assume administrators vet before sending out. it's the same greeting to everyone. but even "hello how are you" can be offensive if someone is pugnacious enough. i am very sure the greeting was not offensive; admin wouldn't allow an offensive one to go out. we greeters don't even send them; admin sends them. we just write our own.

@genessa Welcome to the realm of the realistic mine says.

@genessa So what did you say?

@Jolanta what do you mean what did i say?

g

@genessa How did you actually great this person. Word for word.

@Jolanta "Hello there. welcome to agnostic.com. this is a place to communicat​e with others who are somewhere on the scale of the labels you looked at when you joined -- agnostic, atheist, all that, but mostly atheists and agnostics. you don't have to talk exclusivel​y about religion, though. there are many categories​, including a general one for stuff that doesn't fit into any category. snoop around, have fun, find out what you like, and feel free to ask me questions if you have them. i'll do my best to answer!

"g"

i am sure azzow2's greeting was just as generic and inoffensive. i don't think our messages would have been accepted by admin otherwise. i do not think it is a matter of either us having said anytihng offensive. some people are just nasty. you can say "hello" and they will be rude back to you.

g

@genessa Thank you for that. Perhaps that person who you greeted has mental issues.

@Jolanta i don't think that's the problem. i think my respondent is an actual scammer. i think azzow2's respondent may have mental issues.

g

@genessa You are probably right.

I would have been insulted for you had I know there just is no place for prejudice on any basis.

@azzow2 nor unearned name-calling (i don't mind calling people idiots when they act like idiots, but i don't do it on the basis of disagreeing with their statement -- unless they're offensive; if someone calls me the c-word i feel i have earned the right to call that person an idiot).

g

@genessa You are correct with that. When someone causes you animosity normal reaction is to counter attact. I do not blame you one bit.

@azzow2 i try to keep it clean but some folks just don't respond to that lol

Nice, shmice...you get what you deserve, and hopefully quickly! (Now, on to the voting booths!)

I vote flag and report it to site support.

@CaroleKay also public humiliation.

@OpposingOpposum OK, I'm down Lol! I'm easy.

@CaroleKay I think she actually got herself removed.
