You post from great height
far above your own station

Gawsh, That's pretty subjective, innit?
And not very respectful either.

My 'station' being that I have a Bachelor of Sciences in English Education, and a Minor in Journalism. I taught English at the collegiate and High School level for a number of years, as well as being a paid writer for even more.

I'm also more than twice the age of the average player here, so if I have a bit of hard-earned wisdom, and choose to share it now and again, by using an extensive vocabulary and writing the way I think and speak, that's 'posting from above my own station'?

Frankly, I don't much care what people think of my 'wisdom' - if they get something from it then I am glad - if not, no loss.
(I'm also not saying I'm smarter than a single soul here, either. Wisdom =/= intelligence)

What I don't do is come at people with sideswipe insults at their character, even when I wholly disagree on a particular issue. That's below my 'station'.

Thanks for the jab though, I'm always gladdened when people I otherwise respect pull back the veil and show their acidic nature, it gives me fair warning.

EDIT: since this has turned into a "take pot-shots at Finnegan" thread, maybe this should be moved to Flood so everyone can join in!
