Pretty much, yes, with the right set of circumstances.

Then this is the last that should be said about this:
The emtoicon you used is "threaten" Just hover with your mouse over the one you used and you should see.
We are all responsible for what we post and how we post it. Tone is not easy to discern via type and so we warn people to be careful how they put things in the guidelines.
Points to remember.

Normally that type of emoticon is associated with ' grr' or' the one where you've got the exclamations coming out out of it.. the ' threaten' part of was to me a funny way to diffuse things.. the emoticon struck me as having two paint ball guns or those automatic nerf guns.
Again, taking an emoticon as a serious gesture is something that's never even crossed my mind...

Right, you didn't see the above post of mine, did you?
I am going to try and break this down as gently as possible:
I asked some of the parties involved here to back off a bit because I had contacted you via PM to try and sort this out. Then you post something that could very easily be misinterpereted given the way you spoke in previous posts. The people I asked nicely to back off (because I am trying to sort things out with you in private) now ask me WTF is going on here (rightfully so) and I look like kind of a tit. Now it's all our fault again because your superior intellect could see that it was all in jest, eh?
Dude, just stop. For the love of Jeebus, just stop. No more misunderstandings. We get it.

It would be best, I think, to just remove my account and my offensive threat from the site.. There doesn't appear to be any form of clear communication between myself and this forum.
thank you.
thank you.

For the very reason you've just demonstrated,
I'm not here to a) antagonize and b) to be castigated, I came here for advice, received some awesome advice, had a mis understanding based on assumed attitudes, attempted to apologise with little success due to a breakdown in emoticon threat level.. tried to get past that, but found myself yet again in trouble for trying to make my way past the previous problems because, and I'm guessing at this one; I posted in the same thread?
This site is very foreign to any other forum I've been on, things that would normally do one thing, do the opposite here.
it's best If i maybe once in awhile check this place out, it has awesome information on it.. I just don't think I've got the right mind set or something like that to be posting with the natives..
not trying to be a dick in anyway and I'm not running away like a whipped pup, I'm just at a loss as to how to proceed when everything I've done seems to make things worse..

Kiltman-
This is not meant sarcastically.
Your initial posts came across as lacking a certain degree of humility. You didn't ask questions, so much as make bold statements. You demeaned non-combat arms trade options without, apparently, one iota of an understanding of:
a) what they do; and
b) how the CF operates as a team.
By all means- join the CF. Just realize that your past achievements will be in the past. You will get up, every day, having to prove yourself. No one will care about your stories (all true, I'm sure- again no sarcasm intended). The guys and gals around you will very much judge you on your deeds and how much of a team player you are.

That's all I ask.
All my original post was suppose to do was give a sense that I was not a boffin, not demonstrate ego in anyway. The original post I do agree is awkward in it's approach and set up , but I think that was more due to not having any idea what kind of information might be useful or help someone help me with good advice.

so just ask a question without all of the preamble. Or read a bunch of the threads- there is a ton of good info here.

Kiltman asked me, via PM, to have his account deleted and gave me reasons similar to the above: that he seems to be the only one in step. I offered to clean up this thread and give him another shot at his "apology" but he declined.
I don't think we need to go any further with this.
