This post made me laugh  :lol: ; then it made me sad  :( when I realized there was no "thanks" button.
Then I wondered what is C++, or PHP.

C++ and PHP are programming languages.  :)
In conclusion, I can leave you with no better advice than that given after every sermon by Msgr Vincent Giammarino, who was pastor of St Michael's Church in Atlantic City in the 1950s:

    "My dear good people: Do what you have to do, When you're supposed to do it, The best way you can do it,   For the Love of God. Amen"

Well, Jayne has weighed in with her opinion on this already; and given that she has been using internet forums since ARPANET she aalone has the sole authority on the internet to decide how the internet best works and should function. all hail our digital overlord Jayne....

Since I have Arun on ignore, I do not know how often he makes digs at me, but it seems likely this is not an isolated instance.  I only see it when people quote him doing it.  Is it possible for people to avoid doing this?

ETA:  Just to make this marginally on topic, I had no difficulty in telling that Arun was being sarcastic in his comments above. :)

For people to avoid quoting him?

Just to avoid quoting him when he is making comments about me, not in general.

When my name is in a post it catches my eye, so it is hard to skim over it the way I normally do. 

For the record, I do not want Arun to get banned and I do not intend to report this sort of thing from him.   I would not like seeing the moderators accused of being under my control.

if somebody could quote this, it'd be nice: Jayne i wasn't taking a dig i was referencing the fact that you reference the fact that you've been on bbs's for a long, long time and doing it in a silly humourous way that played into the topic of the thread. ARPANET, come on... that's pretty funny.

I knew that LTC would do the opposite of what I asked so I pre-emptively put him on ignore.  HA!   :P

Chestertonian

forget a sarcasm font there needs to be a forum equivalent of this

"I am not much of a Crusader, that is for sure, but at least I am not a Mohamedist!"

The Curt Jester

It would be useless.  I'm always sarcastic and I would never use the font.
The royal feast was done; the King
Sought some new sport to banish care,
And to his jester cried: "Sir Fool,
Kneel now, and make for us a prayer!"

The jester doffed his cap and bells,
And stood the mocking court before;
They could not see the bitter smile
Behind the painted grin he wore.

He bowed his head, and bent his knee
Upon the Monarch's silken stool;
His pleading voice arose: "O Lord,
Be merciful to me, a fool!"

And it doesn't bother you that the Saint avoided being sarcastic?
