It's just that you don't add much by not going in discussion. All you do is say "amico mio". It's great to be nice, but people who never go in discussion, don't add anything extra either.
Gee, I wonder how many ignore lists
I'm on?
Look, I come here to talk Juventus and to hang out with fellow fans. I do not come here to see my country, my religion and my God get bashed. There's enough pricks in the real world who do that.
As for your implication that I am not a "real" fan/member--fine. I've never claimed to be a Juve expert. TBH, it's one of the reasons that I'm here: to learn more about the club that I love. I may not know as much as you do about calcio---it isn't covered here at all on "regular" TV. I really have to dig for my info. Is that a plus for my fandom? Nah, but it ain't a minus, either, IMHO.
A little secret for you: it's more fun to be liked, than to be disliked. I actually think if you could cut out the juvenile bashing, that I might be able to like you. It's up to you, I guess. When your name pops up as having just posted to a thread, do you want people to say "Gee, I really look forward to reading Seven's reply" or, "sh!t, that a**hole just posted again". Again, it's up to you.
I, for one, am willing to let bygones be bygones; to start fresh, as it were. It's up to you, amico mio.
