Again, it's not with just about everything. You only notice it when i do. If you check up on the cuontless of threads around, you'd notice that i'm not that bad :p

Also, if you look at EVERY thread in the past, say, 6 months where people do get annoyed, you'll notice that not once, not one time, have i started the "toht is x" discussion. When someone claims that i'm something i'm not, ofcourse i'll defend on it. But before someone brings out the classic lines of insult, i'm keeping on the topic.

To be fair mate, the Toh is x is all in your head.

As an example and I don't want to go deep with it because I can't be arsed! In the God thread a couple of months ago you came out with an opinion/theory about god which pretty much using your own explanation was effectively a Placebo effect. Someone commented on this being a Placebo and you argued that it wasn't anything like it, when the reality was that it was exactly like it. Having an opinion is fine and backing it up is also fine, but you can't just back things up with well it's my opinion, (which you think is a safety net in every chat)

You can pretty much use it in every discussion where there is an opinion to be had.

And to be fair; the toht is x thing isn't in my head. Take a look at few of the threads, how many times the following has been used(to begin with);

- You're just arguing for arguings sake.
- You're moving goalposts as usual.
- ignore him, he just needs attention.

Anybody can rip an example out of their arse and that god thread has nothing to do with it as it's again, you said i said.

If you want an example of how you look to a lot of people at times Calaen, take a look at Tuthmes there.

THAT is twattish behaviour.

Me arguing a point, to wahtever degree of success, is not.

Also you can't really blame me for not saying "I was wrong" when it happens here ever 1 millionth post :p

And seriously, you just used an example of a couple of months ago. I didn't even remember that thread before you mentioned it. It was just a discussion, that's how i treat every thread, discussion of the matter.

I don't look at who posted it, or who said what, i look at what is said and discuss it, then move on with no hard feelings.

You bringing that up clearly shows that it's not me who has a problem changing or letting go.

Oh and one mroe thing, which i've mentioned countless times;

The difference in how i see things has a lot to do with the country you're from.

When i for example talk about texting and driving with people around finland, they tend not to rip my head off.

When i mention some god debacle to a swede, they tend to discuss it and we have a nice chat.

When i mention that there's a bug in my window to a brit? Hooo boy, i shouldn't have said that.

If we take a look at all the problem threads, it's very rare to find that the problem is with me and another scandic for example.

The problem with accepting different views as just different views, that's all britannia :D

For example what Everz there just said; i think it's supposed to be an insult, but to me it's "Hmm, why?".

And you can't ignore the fact that there's a real listening problem with you guys at times. It seems you only cherrypick one line from every post, then concentrate fire on that. Everything else is a blur. Also explaining things seems to be a major issue, seems like you should know every detail and share every single databit of info RIGHT NOW or never say anything to clarify.

But refer to my initial post, I take what people think of me on a forum with a pinch of salt, it's hardly going to effect me now is it.

I've no doubt some people think what a twat he is, but that pretty much stands for everyone elese on here, there's enough of us about.

The reason people say you change the goal posts is because you do. It's not a generic response to you.

You keep using everyone else as the reason why threads get fucked up when you post in them. If there was another one of you posting the same opinions as you they to would be jumped on to. Maybe you could do like a russian bride style search but instead of a bride go for like a forum buddy with similar views as yours. Atleast then you wouldn't feel so singled out.

But that's again all in your head. You're ignoring any bit of info that might make you at fault and expect me to accept everything as my fault :p

Just the other day there was a thread where ford pretty much said same exact things i did, he got a discussion, i got generic bullcrap.

Clear as day singulation.


The following is a fact;

Threads get f*cked up when people make it about something outside the thread discussion, i don't do that.

I don't give two hoots about how you think about me for example, you're hardly part of my life adn you've said so stupid things that i doubt you ever will(like "you don't know if you want children" etc ;)), but i do mind when people ruin a perfectly nice discussion with...*waves hand at thread*...this!

I've accpeted blame on many occasiosn, but can you honestly point out one occasion when people accept any blame at all?

I think you'll find they avoid those posts/lines very well and concentrate on, well, like you did last post ;)

Sorry but when I have a chat with someone I remember what they said and when they said it. That's kinda the point of communicating with people, you have a discussion and you remember their views/opinions. Otherwise you come across as ignorant, when you chat with them the next time and bring up something that would make the conversation uncomfortable

I used an example where you posted a definition that was clearly Placebo yet you argued it wasn't and it was your own made up ideal.

Strangely enough I remember most of the things you say and you know why?? because they are so fucking out there it's hard not to.

See, another case of "Let's ignore everything said and just post what i want".

THAT is the kind of ignorance that is abundant. You simply block out everything that might A: make me look normal/outside your picture. B: make you look at all bad.

The thing was my own made up thing, i posted it in the first post, but it was completely ignored as it wouldn't be as naughty to just say "I don't agree with that, interesting idea".

Everyone seems to have this picture in their head, about some evil argumentative thing that invades every thread and every place. When infact, it's one guy who just happens to have different opinions.

You only notice the BIIIIIIIG threads that have strong views in them, which ofcourse will clash.

It's not "toht vs 6 billion people", it's "toht isn't agreeing with 10 uk people" :p

Yet you made a post yesterday about changing a moral stance with regards to having sex with someone who was in a relationship. You are potentially changing your mind for no other reason than this chick makes you feel a bit tingly.

Shit happens, that's my stance.

In fairness mate you got a discussion well before the shit started in the god thread, you just refused to answer peoples questions and argued that they were misquoting you. And despite them then going back and quoting everything and giving responses. You then point at a different post and refuse to further the discussion.

And again.

Does anyone else see this happening? Cherry picking a point, oblivious to what is being said?

You also mistook the thread about the chick completely.
A: it's not about sex.
B: it's a rant about principles clashing with interest.

Me hooking up with a taken woman IS NOT at the same level as marriage and children ;)

In fairness; the god thread never had any discussion on what i said. IT had what i said, then someone claiming something irrelevant and a lot of insults, before it turned to the usual crap.

Thing is;

I REALLY should start acting like you CLAIM i act, then you'd see how much of a difference it is.

Your own idea, possibly. But the definition of that idea was Placebo.

It's been nice chatting with you.

It really wouldn't change anything mate, because you're clearly oblivious to what you do. That is abundantly clear.

I'm not oblivious to having different views. I've said it many times.

What's oblivious is what i've said a fair few times here already ;)

I'm a bit appalled by some of the responses in this thread if I am honest.

I don't care if Toht started a thread saying it was ok to poor lighter fuel on your trousers while playing with matches and flying a plane. He has an opinion and he is entitled to it as everyone else is entitled to theirs, but for some reason a lot of you seems to take it really personally. I genuinely don't understand why.


Actually thinking people are taking it personally is a massive assumption.

Toht derails threads, massively, all the time. Usually by picking some obscure argument or POV and then continually hammering it, shouting louder and louder until people lose all other threads of the thread. It draws people into arguing it because the view is usually so bizarre they feel compelled. His 10 posts per minute posting style drowns out other posts.

Bahu, you've taken some banter in the HP thread completely out of context as well. I saw your first post defending Toht in that thread, it was completely unnecessary, he got the same treatment anyone would for missing a joke, the only reason it carried on so long is that he refused to just accept it.

Ford / Bahu: There is clearly a large a growing camp who don't respect Toht's posting style, so ask yourselves if you really believe Toht does not go out to frustrate on purpose, because the majority of active posters on general and OT seem to think he does...

I don't actually care if he offers different opinions, that is not the issue. It's his relentless style of pushing his point across. Bahu you mentioned people warping and taking Toht's posts out of context, that made me laugh in real life, suberb irony.

Bye thread! *waves*

Perhaps it is an assumption, but there seem to be very strong and rather personal opinions – so I am not so sure.

As someone who inherently sees things differently and tends to focus on obscure point of views, I really don’t see what is wrong with it if I am honest. Sure he may push it a little far sometimes (as I'm sure I do), but that is probably because he is unsure he has gotten his point across or whatever, but people can simply move on and stop responding rather than feeling the need to get in the last word.

As for the HP thread, I didn’t get that at first either (even though I read the toner cartridge article only hours earlier) – I’m autistic, but Toht is from a different country where it wasn't big news and as such has a different sense of humour, so I am unclear as to why people felt the need to take the mick for x number of posts, because he missed the point. / shrug

I may be looking at this very simplistically, I just don't get it. It all seems a bit over the top and unecessary to me.

the HP thread - because he didn't let it go. In a social environment, if you take the piss out of someone and they react, you are more likely to continue having a dig at them -not in a nasty way, it's just how banter works. If they laugh with you, and accept the joke, you move on.

There is a difference between getting your point across and needing to be the loudest voice and get the final word in every time.

I could agree with you Ch3t, if it wasn't clear that it isn't just banter.

You saying there's a growing dislike(which seems to include every psoter on FH according to you), is a clear sign of the hate campaign you yourself started.

Or are you denying you started an actual anti.toht group, focused solely on being against me? (not even getting into how it violates the coc)

And i accepted fault on the HP thread, you ignore it ofcourse because that wouldn't drive your point :p

Funny that you should talk about assumptions, since your whole campaign is based on assumptions.

If you could even try to understand anything, you'd see that there's two things;

I'm no different from other posters(which you say i shouldn't be when i get bantered) and that i AM treated differently.

Clash of points there buddy.

NOT to mention; there's been only one example(unproven even) that i am "toht against everyone".

So to recap;

Will you start treating me like everyone else, OR, do you accept that you treat me different?

Funny how that works out doesn't it.

Either you stop the bullsh*t, or you accept of acting like a dick.

Let's take the travel agents suck thing for example?

You say "it was just firenly banter", yet, when i do a similar thing to poke at you, you get on about how i'm riding on a high ego horse etc.

When i got burned, it's friendly banter.
When you got anything similar, it's "toht being a dick"

Just more proof on how you just don't treat me equal, then try and claim i should take everything as such.

Or how about;

The forced labour thread?

Me and ford made pretty much the same arguments. I get "that's why you suck" and ford gets a regular conversation.

I've tried over and over to stop this ridicilous feud, but every single time, out come the anti-toht brigade.

Funniest part about this, well, most likely very pointless thread as no one will change their mind...ever...on the internet; me and ch3t would probably have a blast night out, could have a discussion for hours about any subject with no problems and yet, put it in writing between two cultures and voila, oppenheimer :p

Hang on. Do I have someone on ignore or something? Last comment by anyone other than Toht was over two hours ago, that was 5 posts back :p


Anyway, this ought to be closed but I can't do it.
