[TopDawg]

Hey Collier, this is Rhino's project. Let him do it.

[Collier11]

Hey Collier, this is Rhino's project. Let him do it.


Oh im sorry, I didnt realize this was a private thread in a private forum. You guys are really hilarious at how protective and child like you act sometimes over threads. If I offended anyone over posting awards then grow up...Seriously!!

[TopDawg]

A) Rhino does a better job than you
B) After you complain about neg-spek, you lose your right to complain about anything else
C) You're a tool

[yermom]

it's Rhino's project in that he started the thread and can update that first post, it's easier to read that way

if someone was just posting the additions that could then be edited into the master list, it would be less junk to look at

[Collier11]

A) Rhino does a better job than you
B) After you complain about neg-spek, you lose your right to complain about anything else
C) You're a tool



Hmmm, im pretty sure that all I did was add to his already produced list, I am not quite sure how anyone could do a better or worse job of that...

second, you are the one talking all tough and hiding behind a computer screen, you seem to get some sense of empowerment from a keyboard. Too bad you are so insecure that you feel that you have to talk down to people that you would never talk down to in person, rather you would probably **** down your quivering little leg if you ever met me. So why dont you do yourself a favor and keep your mouth shut!!! IF you dont like what I post then it is your right as anyone elses to not read it or disagree, but dont come on hear talking sh*t just cus you have a high post count and you think that makes people like you. I dont give a sh*t who you are or what you post, im not disrespecting you so dont disrespect me!!! And third, I dont care if someone neg-speks me every minute of every day, but when people start talking sh*t or calling people names just cus you dont like what I write, then I am not going to appreciate it. Having said all that, HAVE A GOOD F*CKING DAY LITTLE MAN!!!!

[TopDawg]

Hmmm, im pretty sure that all I did was add to his already produced list, I am not quite sure how anyone could do a better or worse job of that...

Well if you'd been around as long as me, you'd realize that Rhino does indeed do a better job of it than you.

Tell me what kind of car you drive too. Maybe that will intimidate me a little more.


Having said all that, HAVE A GOOD F*CKING DAY LITTLE MAN!!!!

I always do.

[Newbomb Turk]

Hey Collier, this is Rhino's project. Let him do it.

you have to be kidding me. :rolleyes:

[Collier11]

Just let him feel important!!!

[TopDawg]

One of us butts in on a long-time poster's annual award thread...mucking up the thread in the process...and I'M the one trying to feel important?

Rhino's gonna need to get his tuxedo fixed if you don't let go of the coat tails.

[Collier11]

First off, I dont really think I mucked it up...if you would look at it, I copied what he had already wrote and just added a few names. Second, what is this crush you have on rhino...he might want to watch out. This is a message board where when someone posts a message, other people reply. NOt so smart are ya!!
