You created an account just to reply to my comment ???

Im flattered. My comments seem to have that effect on people. I dont speak for everyone in Miami. I just speak for the people who wipe their ass with the sterotypes typically associated with Transformers fans.

Boy some people are just too sensitive these days. Not sure exactly what a "troll" means. I dont really follow blogger terminology. I can tell you this...I met almost everybody I used to debate and argue with on this site at Botcon last year. They were all really cool people. I had a great time drinking, talking Transformers, and making new friends.

You guys from my hood right ??? Why not let us hit the Ale House and have a few drinks ??? First rounds on me...

Rated X, You keep it up and you'll get a warning. Knock it off and stop trying to get a rise out of others.

Everyone else, cool it and stay on topic. I'd prefer it if a war didn't break out over something so mundane.

I apoligize. While it is impossible to predict everyones reaction to every comment before posting, I would like to treat my fellow Miami Seibertronians to a round of beer to show them no hard feelings.
