I think it's a conspiracy...all of the other forums in forum-land got jealous when they saw Kasept's growing Kingdom and tried to take him out! :D

I don't want to speak for others but I think this might be part of your problem, in my opinion:
You are a relatively new member of this board, and yet you make really strong statements such as calling horses the "most overated horse EVER" or "hands down" the best 2yo ever, or calling a horse "unbeatable". Those are really STRONGLY worded opinions that the majority of members are going to disagree with. When you state something that strongly, you are going to get strongly worded responses.
Most of the people on this board are good people, and I think if you tone down the strength of your statements, you will be fine. Right now you sort of come across as a know-it-all, and that rubs people the wrong way. You might also want to avoid any more melodramatic "last posts."
We welcome all opinions on this board, even those of a 21 year old, so I hope you stick around, but I think that as long as you make such bold (and in my opinion incorrect) assertions you will get strong responses from some people on the board (including me).
I hope this helps.

Just be cool and don't go around looking for trouble and you won't find it.

You did a nice job of summing up what I just posted, but with a lot fewer words!

the younger, espn/mtv generation doesn't understand that in order to get respect, you have to give it (I can't believe I just wrote that, I must be getting OLD)!

listen i might come off that way like i know it all but i know that i dont, and if i come off that way im sorry, im definitly not the type who needs attention and i will tone down my statements so that it stops looking like that

Agreed, that was a general statement about today's world, not necessarily indicative of this forum.

good lord how many threads do we need which become about correcting this kid's behavior? DaHoss and Miraja2, your hearts are in the right place, but i hate to see quality posters like you reduced to babysitting.

its rare on this place to have to ignore someone, as most people bring something to the table. but for me this is an ignore from here on out. there's nobody home.

Dixie will go down in internet history....I take it you weren't on the now defunct Thoroughbred Times forum?
