10. I remember that thread.
I didn't know he was biracial, which would explain the sarcasm, and why I didn't get it at the time.

16. his sarcasm was his schtick and many took what he wrote
literally because he never used the sarcasm emoticon. He used to make posts that would appear quite outrageous if they were to be taken seriously or literally. He was a major ally to the DU GBLT community and I appreciated it. I won't comment on his tombstoning though, because I know nothing about what lead to it and wasn't even aware it occurred until you mentioned it to me a few days ago. :hi:

12. Yeah, I suppose if you weren't used to his style of posting, one might get upset.
If that's what it was, I hope he explains it to the admins. I liked a lot of his posts.

14. I know that I alerted on more than a few of his posts.
How are we supposed to know it's sarcasm? Freeps do invade the boards on occasion. :shrug:

19. I didn't dislike him either. Sometimes I didn't understand where he was coming from.
I don't really dislike anyone here.

He did push things pretty far in some of his posts and probably should fessed up to the absurdity in a few threads where people went off on him but he wasn't any more provocative than some others who still remain. If you're lurking indy, :hi:

8. Wow. I'm sorry to see that.
He had a different sense of humor and liked to provoke but it wasn't serious.I had a few situations where he surprised me with his comments and support.

23. yup. if one wasn't aware he was being ironic or whatever he
could appear to be over-the-top offensive. Once I figured out his schtick i found the responses to his posts by people who took him literally quite amusing. Like I mentioned upthread, he was a strong advocate/ally of the DU GLBT community.

25. Sad news - I loved his posts
I know a lot of people didn't get where he was coming from but his sarcasm really highlighted the types of bigotry people have to deal with. :(

26. When did that happen?
It took me awhile to 'get' his posting style, but then he was very entertaining and thought provoking.

27. I didn't really read enough of his posts to figure out what was going on,
but it sounds like he was a good guy. Sorry to hear he got TS'd. :(
