To quote from http://www.etymonline.com/index.php?term=levity
levity
1564, from L. levitas (gen. levitatis) "lightness, frivolity," from levis "light" in weight (see lever).
of humor showed by many of the ``original'' posters---and,
obviously, discussions that provide me with knowledge
and insight I did not previously have.

Mr. imaginative, as you are conducting an experiment to find out how the human mind works, perhaps you may want to also accept humour which is less than perfect and wade through posts which are less instructive as well.Fire Impossible.

I posted on both TS and here even before TS's demise.
I enjoyed both forums.
The difference is that the posters here are snootier and you may be banned even without a direct warning.
On TS it was looser, there were more kid posters mixed in and a lot of the post didn't seem to be generated by people trying to impress each other with their knowledge (both track and otherwise) like here. That is, no one seemed to present themselves as better than other people like many of the regulars do here. Sometimes TS was over the top though.
Also on TS before people were banned (which seemed rare) you were given a direct warning.
Although I posted for years on TS I was never banned, but I've been banned here without a direct warning. So take the mods warning seriously.
I think I was banned for posting what I believe in a thread where people were posting what they believe. What I believe was formed by what "I believe" and so I believe that is why I was banned. It's okay to say that you are an Atheist and don't believe in God, but not okay to proclaim you do, I guess.
Now I just read what other people "believe" and keep what I "believe" to myself.
I'll be glad when the WC start.The fool has said...there is no God. Psa 14

Above all, try to remain courteous, adhering to the old adage, "it's not what you say, it's how you say it." Insulting your fellow posters is a good way to get banned

Originally posted by 2 centsNo, my guess is when TD uses the word "snootier," he means "snootier," and your post is a perfect illustration of what he means.
1. Snobbishly aloof; haughty.
2. High-class; exclusive.
OK, I must admit it MIGHT have been high-class or exclusive! :twisted: :roll: :wink:

Originally posted by 2 centsYes, your post was an illustration of arrogance, as you attempted to give a meaning to the word snooty which was not accurate in order to gratify your narcissism. That is all.
