Reeni, I`m afraid I have to echo StephenK`s sentiments on a previous thread that your picture is in bad taste, and your choice of words makes your explanation suspect. It really doesn`t reflect positively on you, so why go there?

The participants on the flute forum seem like a close-knit group of individuals, and this seem really out of character.

I wasn`t trying to offend anyone. If you read my post about alcohol, you will see why I posted it. It had nothing to do with Scotch the poster. Why does everyone always have to think the worst of everyone? To Bilbo, that is the same way I feel about it. I grew up with an alcoholic father and that is my main reason why I hate it. I am making a statement and it is so wrong of everyone just to jump on me because of it.

Another thing, I don`t even pay attention much to what poster I am replying to, so your preconceived ideas about my picture being some vendetta against one person then so be it.

Like I said, it was your choice of words that made me thing otherwise. I wasn`t jumping on you. But if my pic had the words "Reenie sucks" and I responded that `reenie` was my cousin and not you, it would raise a few eyebrows too.

And I assume you will be posting in other threads too. Are all readers expected to know your background in order to interpret your picture properly?

Anyway, do what you want, but expect this type of inquiry from others from time to time.

What choice of words are you referring to? These?
"I have met that guy before. I hate to say it, but he was very rude and arrogant. I would be careful of that guy."

What is wrong with that? Now you are prejudging me! Let me get one thing straight with you, you don`t know me and I don`t know you, so please be careful about judging people for others to read about unless you really know that person. If my picture offends you, then too bad, get over it.

I am referring to the word `scotch` in your picture, not any text you have written. And I made no judgement of you, but you should be aware of how the picture may be interpreted. That`s all.

There is that better?
