Jimmy Page, I stand by my comments that I find EZ's behavior to be bullying. I have never looked up the definition until you questioned me on it and there are many definitions. Here is what wikipedia has:

Definition

Bullying is an act of repeated aggressive behavior in order to intentionally hurt another person, physically or mentally. Bullying is characterized by an individual behaving in a certain way to gain power over another person.[8]

Norwegian researcher Dan Olweus defines bullying as when a person is

"exposed, repeatedly and over time, to negative actions on the part of one or more other persons." He defines negative action as "when a person intentionally inflicts injury or discomfort upon another person, through physical contact, through words or in other ways".[9]

We can disagree on what I believe to be bullying. Your definition may be different which is fine by me.If you look at what I wrote I said:

"I used the term bully when describing his behavior. Since I don't know EZ personally I don't know if he is like this in real life or just because it is a message board."

Like I said I don't know EZ but I find his behavior at times to be offensive. Call it what you want. One of the complaints about EZ was his interjecting himself into other peoples discussion with personal comments. This is the point I was trying to show with my personal example. I only used my own since I didn't feel right using other peoples posts. There are many that are far worse that mine.

It is shame you all call EZ a bully but please let me know what harm he caused to anyone that did not have the ability to respond or defend themselves. It sure is easy to call someone names when he is banned and can't reply.

Jimmy it troubles me that you feel that as long a someone has the ability to defend themselves it is OK to call them names and be abusive. If you truly don't understand what harm this type of behavior can cause or that it shouldn't be acceptable behavior we are on different ends of the spectrum.

If you read my post again I think you might find it isn't about calling EZ names. I labeled his behavior as bullying. You may call it whatever you want. If EZ wants to respond or talk to me I'm fine with that. Send me a private message and I will send you an email address where he can reach me.
