The joke was funny. Maybe someone should apologize to taxidriver and get him back.

And after only a couple days of quarantine, hate to see us in a week!

That escalated quickly. I for one apologize, didn't mean to upset anyone. If you are still reading this taxi. Please come back.

You and @mrp may not have meant to upset taxidriver1980, but it certainly looks as if you have. He has self-deleted his account as a result of your comments, after all. With that in mind, and in light of the current global situation, can I just urge everyone here to try that little bit harder to be kind to each other. With people quarantined at home, tempers are likely to fray a bit quicker than normal. The forum will likely feel like a sanctuary to all of us at some point or other in the coming weeks or months. So, we need to go that little bit further to stay on friendly terms with everyone. Let's not argue over the small stuff and wind each other up. Let's try to focus on togetherness and community. Be kind. Be sensitive. Look after one another.

This too shall pass.

I think the opposite. He should never have found the killer. That way his war continues. Well, I think his war would continue regardless. Yeah, there's the theme of his war being about making sure such tragedies do not befall other people and not about vengeance and such. However, this killer forever altered the trajectory of Bruce's life in the worst possible way. If he cannot capture his parents' murderer and bring that person to justice, then what good is the rest of his actions? He can help stop others but he can't help his own pain? No, no, to me, if Bruce never captures Joe Chill then he is a failure.

This too shall pass. I don't think anyone said anything wrong at all, period. I assume taxidriver is just under extra stress with everything going bc IMO that was a massive over reaction to...well, nothing. It was just regular conversation and banter. That said, I hope after he cools off he comes back. I always enjoyed his presence and comments. I just don't think you can find fault in anything anyone else said.

Be kind. Be sensitive. Look after one another. Yeah, but we were just discussing the nature of a joke. No personal insults or anything was directed at taxi. I get how raw the situation is now, I am in New York. But it is hard to have any discussion if disagreement means we cross a line. This is in a thread whose name is "There I said it" after all. I apologize to taxi that he felt dumped on. I don't think that was anyone's intention.

Jeez. It was NOT meant to be a joke that would have audiences laughing for years to come. I'm done here. Hey, taxidriver1980, please reconsider! I, for one, value your contributions here highly, and I thought your joke was pretty funny. I’d be sorry not to see any more of your comments on comics, as your genuine enthusiasm is a refreshing change from a certain gloomy attitude common in the fandom at large.

I sent him a message, butI don't know if he'll get it if the accounts deleted.

Sorry you felt you had to leave taxidriver1980. If you are out there in the ether and ever peek in on the CCF, know that I enjoyed your time here and wish you well and hope you consider returning. Be cool, be safe and keep on enjoying your comic books!
