Good of you to blow off steam here and move on rather than blow up at the person who did this (although I only have a vague clue what this is all about). *pats*
How can anyone think it's ok to call someone a midget or whatever? I can't even really imagine that being a joke, especially on the 'net, where it's so easy to misinterpret things.
Name-calling is basically never good. :(

I think I know who you're talking about... If so, I had to report said person to Beth yesterday (and apparently it wasn't their first time getting in trouble..)
I wouldn't worry too much, I'm just blowing off some steam really. It's a sad reality, but the Internet is full of idiots who love to hide behind two phrases:
"It's just a joke." & "You're taking it too seriously."
I've always been of the mindset that if something genuinely upsets someone, you drop it. I always do for people I consider friends since it's not that hard.
I do find it ironic that you mention Dr. TinyCat since Allamorph likes to tease me occasionally with that.
But on the other hand he and other friends never do things like calling me midget or size handicapped. That kind of joking just infuriates me.

I try not to waste my time with pathetic brats who think they're all that. *::*is curious what prompted the post*::*
Oh, I have to tell you something that I find amusing. Yesterday I kept saying "paging doctor tinycat" (it was stuck in my head for some strange reason) and my little sister went bonkers.
Me: Paging doctor Tinycat, paging doctor Tinycat!
My little sister: QUIT SAYING THAT!!!
Me: Why? I'm only paging doctor Tinycat!"
My little sister: ARGGGGGGGGGGGGGG!!!!!!!!

Is this still about that one member that got banned? Meh...
Oh yeah, beating-the-dead-horse... so much fun. There were some people on Anime Pulse who were doing that a lot last year.
Bazinga!

Couldn't have said it better! Internet drama of all kinds sucks.

Apparently to the clueless, it's "Nifty" I kid you not. I've already talked to the right people about it though.
