Plus, the posters obviously have a tiff with you and, while I think you are free to feel the way you want and appreciate your pride for San Antonio, you don't stop lighting the fire.
So my question is...
Are you really surprised by the outcome?
I'm not saying all the posters in that thread were being angels or were completely perfect in any way because I know how you feel, dude, and there were a few people in there (usual suspects) making unnecessary comments, but it was pretty obvious from the beginning that things were not going to mix well.

How is a topic about a growing region about pride? It is a legitimate topic that was just talked about in the media. Now, If a CSA is formed or not is besides the point. The topic has turned to name calling, in which I have succumbed to as well, but I never start this kind of juvenile behavior.
I see topics about all kinds of cities in the city dicussions room, Texas cities as well. I wasn't aware we couldn't discuss San Antonio there. Austin does have it's own room, but yet I see all kinds topics and acollades about Austin. It doens't bother me, not in the least. why should it? This forum is so we can discuss and learn about other places, places we may have never been to.
I enjoy looking at what people display about their cities. I dont understand what the problem is?
A matter of fact, I don't go overboard boosting S.A. at all, if thats what they want to call it.
How many threads have I posted about San Antonio?
Not very many, compared to other forumers on their city's.
Now if you trash my city or any city, and it's baseless rant, which is not true I'm going to give you my two sense and hopefully change your view in a postive way.
So Alice, call it whatever you like, I'll call it a uncivillized few.
When I was replying in here, it was slowed, blocked and I had to keep attempting to enter my reply. And it was certainly not my new lap top or internet connection. Someone is going overboard in here over petty topics about cities.
Lastly, I have been a member since 1999, I have never been rude or disrespectful to any forumer regardless if agree with them or not which doesn't seem to go both ways.
There is more to the story, but I'll leave it at that.
