None of these belong in here, stop spamming the threads. If I were a mod I'd ban you. Speaking of which, I wonder if I can report this.

His response:


WHY DO YOU HAVE TO BE SO BITTER ABOUT EVERYTHING.....I APOLOGIZED FOR POSTING THIS IN THE WRONG THREAD....BESIDES...WHAT'S WRONG WITH THIS IDEA...I THOUGHT IT WAS A GOOD ONE.

DON'T WE ALL LIKE THE IDEA OF "REALTIME" CONSTRUCTION. I AM SORRY THAT I KEEP MAKING YOU ANGRY...YOU MUST THINK YOU KNOW WHO I AM AND THEREFORE YOU HAVE A GRUDGE AGAINST ME. I CAN'T UNDERSTAND WHY YOU WOULD BE SO RUDE AND INSULTING TO ME OTHERWISE. I HOPE I HAVE DONE NOTHING TO UPSET YOU PERSONALLY.

I THOUGHT MY SUGGESTIONS WERE CREATIVE. I GUESS I WAS WRONG.

CLEARLY YOU HAVE KNOWLEDGE THAT I DO NOT...YOU SEEM TO KNOW THAT WHAT I AM SUGGESTING IS BORING OR LAME SOMEHOW.

PLEASE EXPLAIN TO THE REST OF THE THREAD WHY YOU HARBOUR SO MUCH HOSTILITY TO A COMPLETE STRANGER. I WAKE UP EVERYDAY AND CAN'T WAIT TO CHECK OUT THINGS AROUND THE GLOBE.

I HAVE TO SAY THAT SINCE YOU STARTED HARRASSING ME I AM RELUCTANT TO GO TO THIS SITE BECAUSE I WILL ALWAYS BE INSULTED IN SOME WAY BY YOU.

PLEASE REPORT ME IF YOU THINK I AM RUINING THIS EXPERIENCE FOR YOU...OTHERWISE...F&*K THE H$%LL O*FFFFFFF!!!!!!

Niether of us were really tactful in what we said in this situation, for that, I apologise.

i agree with fairbanks.

people on here get a little anal sometimes

My response to this:

Maybe I am anal, but these threads fly by fast enough... I don't need or want irrelivant information. Doesn't mean I'm not intrested in it, but there are places for these things, and if one can't be found, one can always create a new place. It isn't hard to read the topic titles and deduce where something would go.

While this is an extreme example, it would be liek starting a Dubai thread in say... The Midwest (Chicago) section. No way does it belong there, just as what Fairbanks posted doesn't belong in this particular thread.

This isn't the first time he's gone around and put something in the wrong thread, or the same thing in multiple thread, hence why my response this time around can be viewed as anal. Last time around I was, in my opinion, far more polite voicing my concerns then I was this time around. However, last time around I received a similar response as to what one read above... Hell, he went around voicing the above opinion in threads I never commented to him in, and even the proper thread where he should have posted what he had to say in the first place.

By the way, I still think its a great idea, and I'm sure its been mentioned before, but this wasn't the place for it. It deserves its own thread.

I stand by what I have said, and what I say now... Only uncertainty is what I may or may not say in the future.



And for the sake of not having this idea die, I'm also creating a thread for it, located here (http://forum.skyscraperpage.com/showthread.php?t=128921).

Personally I agree with you, Canadian Mind. Although I think Fairbanks might've deserved a lighter warning. But you're right, it wasn't the first time he posted something in the wrong thread, but I think this time around it was an honest mistake. I've almost confused the Vancouver Suburb Construction thread with the Vancouver Construction thread myself (just still getting used to the existence of the suburb one I suppose). The first issue with Fairbanks was far more annoying since he purposely pasted the same message in like 4 different threads. And the fact that he carried your argument over into other threads where it didn't even originate was pretty bizarre to me. But it was his first time doing it (as far as I know) so even that time I'm sure he just needed to be let known that what he did isn't really necessary or appreciated. He probably learned from that first time, and this second time was just accidental.

Good on you for trying to settle things properly (and in a separate thread) and set the record straight. It would be good if Fairbanks can now see you don't harbour any unjustified personal resentment towards him.

This thread seems off topic perhaps this should have been put in the Skybar or something if that still exists...

my rationale was that if I were to put it in another part of the forum, all the people that actually matter (you guys) may not notice it. I wanted to bring it out into the limelight for you guys to see what is going on.

well, if you felt this place was a waste of space, why didn't you just ignore the thread and let it be buried within the nether-regions of the BC forums?

Seeing as how you were willing to comment once on the waste of space, would you be willing to expand upon your statement? Why is this thread a waste of space, and in what fashion should I grow up? I felt taking the debate out of the original thread would be the mature thing to do. I could have just ignored the issue, but I hate to leave things unresolved.

I agree, this site is not here for your person issues and if you have an issue with someone on the site simple send them a private message and explain yourself to them that way. And honestly who really cares if he posted something on the wrong thread, it was interesting information that he posted and if you are not interested in it, simply skip over it and go to the next post. I just dont see why you are making such a big deal about such a small issue. I myself have no issues with either of you personally, i just feel this thread hold no importance on this site and the mature thing to do would to be take it down, and solve this issue between the two of you.

Cheers!
