Wow griff, your last post smacks of racism and I'm surprised that is tolerated here.  Grow up and join the 21st century please.

Please, elaborate.

So, you don't like Mr. Green? Perhaps you should take it up with Hoopty.

You're probably less confused than some here.
Perhaps he's offensive to the bald emoticons?

I like Mr. Green  :mrgreen:

And I don't see anything wrong w/ griff using him in his post either.  He was agreeing w/ the quoted text and added Mr. Green as one would a smiley face emoticon at the end.

That being said, I just knew that when I saw the tweets updating this thread for as many days as I have, that there had to be something going on and that it would probably require intervention.  Thankfully it wasn't anything major, but c'mon guys, let's just stick to the topic and keep it from getting personal. 

Thanks!

Maybe I misunderstood?  I actually read his reply as disagreeing with the post and commenting as "this (insert n word)"

I know not of this Mr. Green but if I saw something that wasn't intended, I will give the benefit of the doubt.  Btw, the emoticon reads as "afro", which can easily offend if taken wrong.

I don't require  your benefit, beucause you were wrong, presumptuous and insulting.
An apology would be appropriate.

'mrgreen' Is the 'code' behind the emoticon.
It's pretty much across the top of the message box.
Sort of like :)
The more you know...
BTW an Afro is a legitimate name for a type of haircut. Assuming it is a derogatory reference about a type of person says volumes more about you than me.
Also means you probably never lived through the 70's, a time when is seemed like everyone had that or the Farah Fawcett hairdo, with or without the Ron Burgundy mustache.

You should be clear about a subject before you decide to throw around insults and also have the integrity and good manners to properly to apologize when you're wrong.
You have a nice day.

Put four calibrators on any problem and you will get 4 different ways to solve said problem. Key is to not kill each other on the way to agreeing on a solution.

But griff, I know you would look good sportin an afro..... I tried, but stringy hair + saltwater = no bueno. Just end up looking like every other beach bum out here  :-o

My hair wouldn't do the Afro thing, came close to the Farrah look back in high school...scary really. Had a firend who just sort of woke up with the perfect 'fro every day, hope he's bald now, that'll teach him. Now my hair's pretty much translucent, so I get the old high and tight and pretend it's not gray...it's just really short

Let's look at this logically:
When you hover over the object, it says "Afro".
It appears you replied sarcastically to the previous post and stated "This (Afro Emoticon)"
It has been stated here that the code says "Mr. Green"

Conclusions:
You were calling into question something about the character of the poster by saying "This Afro", or This Mr. Green".  Since I have no knowledge of this Mr. Green, I assumed that you were making a racist comment.  Please explain how "This Mr. Green" applies to a character description and I will indeed offer my apologies.

OK sdmetrol,

This is how it works, let me translate a little better than I did before. 

Griff quoted a previous post where someone said "If I wouldn't do it in front of an auditor, I wouldn't do it any time." (I'm paraphrasing)  Griffs response was "This..."  Which in forum speak... means that he (Griff) agrees with the quoted statement.  Very much akin to the +1.  He put an emoticon on the end.  It's a standard emoticon.  It wasn't meant as a character description.  It's groovy.  Whatever.  Could have been a smiley face, could have been the devilish face, it happened to be Mr. Green the guy with the afro.  It wasn't racist, it was just a cool emoticon at the end of his post.

Standard forum posting.

Case closed.  Thread Closed.
