I think he's a troll.
Take a deep breath, close the window and find something more calming to do than read inflammatory remarks designed to provoke you

A troll is someone who deliberately tries to cause trouble and arguments on a forum.
James, I don't think you're over-reacting. You are doing the decent thing in paying back your debts and his attitude is bound to infuriate you.
Is it worth arguing though... he's so set in his opinion that nothing's going to change that... and he'll just keep up the 'its a free country, I'm entitled to my opinion' line to avoid ever having to answer the actual question.
The argument will just go round and round and everyone who's struggling to pay debts will feel more and more defensive and angry, but what's the point?
The only thing I'm interested to know from him is how he feels, deep down, about what he has done. What does his conscience say (he might need to listen very hard
) I wonder? But I doubt very much he would answer that! :rolleyes: Don't stress, relax, let life roll off your backs. Except for death and paying taxes, everything in life is only for now... Avenue QOfficial DFW Nerd Club - Member no. 003

Well hopefully he does somewhere, even if it is buried very deep! But he certainly hasn't shown any evidence of it in his actions, I know what you mean.
Thing is he feels the need to defend himself on and on... to press his point on everyone... he's just enjoying being the centre of attention. :rolleyes:Don't stress, relax, let life roll off your backs.
