I don't mind if someone has a different opinion to me. If we all thought the same it'd be pretty crap.
However Tohtori I have noticed you almost never agree with a majority of people's opinions. Ok, so maybe you see things different to most people, that's also fine.
However
I feel like you disagree on purpose, just so you can see people reactions, like it's a game of "how can I disagree, then wind the person up" - or as Dukat said, "wave a red flag to a bull".
I see so many posts where it's you quoting 5+ people on a discussion. Normally it's Chronictank who *dare i say* relishes the challenge against you.
I realise I've just done all what I've accused you of, but I never said I was perfect.
1: When this stuff happens in almost every thread,
If you read what I've posted in this thread, 2: you'll see that I actually agree with you that whine is annoying. I've never really entered the whole "whine vs dont whine" debate in any great level in this thread.
What I've been posting about is the way you seem to have - 3: yet again - entered the thread with what looks like the desire for an argument, or something along those lines.
4: I've called you on the whole controversy issue because - just like you - I find the whole thing very tiresome. I'd rather we can get this out in the open, find out what the problem is, and solve it, rather than going round in circles with every thread ending up a carbon copy of the previous one.
5: How many people have "brought the same sh*t" so far Toh? How many are going to have to "bring it" until you realise that perhaps there is just an ounce of truth in there somewhere?
6: I remember once, not long ago, when I used to flaim about the whole middle-east thing, me and Tierk and sometimes a couple of others would have big rows quite regularly at one point. I rarely budged from my opinions and they rarely budged from thiers, the threads seemed to be never ending and it really did bring the forum down a bit.
7: What stopped me was that at one point, someone completely unrelated to the argument, but someone who I knew of and kinda half respected in a way, jumped in and told me they thought I was talking shit.
8: When enough people do that, you sit back, look at whats going on, and wonder - just maybe - that what everyone is saying is true. Even if its not, there is almost always something you can learn from what someone else thinks of you, even if you flat disagree with it.
9: What makes this story relevent, and what frustrates me enough to make me type all of this crap out, is that you seem to be banging your head against the collective brick wall that is the OT section, repeatedly, and not listening a jot to anything anyone else is saying.
10: It kinda hurts to say this all of this Toh, you've always been someone on this forum I've respected, since before I joined even, but I'm only saying this because I want you to try and see what we're saying and learn something from it so that these ever-recurring threads can finally end.
thats what i thought untill i realised a few things
1)he agrees with me a lot of the time, or says he does.
2)the way he words things is not always in the most ideal way.
I cant win, no matter what the fuck I say you just breeze past it and insert some flaimbaiting meaning in there.
if that is your statement. nobody is flamebaiting then. Sure its your opinion. If i said to a fat man that he was fat - it's my opinion, but if he came and stomped me i should NOT be yelling I DIDNT WANT TO FIGHT because i brought it upon myself, as do you. and that is what you're yelling. (and i like how you conviently edited Dukats post when you always yell that people qoute you out of context, which they may or may not do).I read it fullwell, did you?
It was necessary as i'm tired of the whining. My opinion, my right. Clear?
I didn't.
That's your problem.
I answered each and every point you made and the mistakes you made also about your "high depth analysis".
You, yet to answer one thing.
Every point i make, every thruth i say, you ignore and go "flamebait!!!". See the problem?
- I don't come to threads to fight, like i didn't on THIS thread.
- It doesn't happen o every thread.
- I don't return this kind of paranoia withchunt to you.
- I give my pure and 100% true opinion on matters, yet you bring out this cop-out.
Did you read and TRY to comprehend anything i said?
And if you don't want flames, arguments, or strife...try not to attack me personally with bullsh*t claims and tret me with the respect and common courtesy i've shown you over the years.
if that is your statement. nobody is flamebaiting then. Sure its your opinion. If i said to a fat man that he was fat - it's my opinion, but if he came and stomped me i should NOT be yelling I DIDNT WANT TO FIGHT because i brought it upon myself, as do you. and that is what you're yelling. (and i like how you conviently edited Dukats post when you always yell that people qoute you out of context, which they may or may not do).
but yes, it has always felt pointless to argue with you for many reasons, and so i shall only comment on things now and then for a bit of flamebaiting.
this is bad enough;
But after making a post like that, you then have the gall to put this on the end?
You rip my sentences in half and take them out of context, generally seem to miss what I'm saying, and then call it a cop out?
Personal attacks? Where in the hell have I said anything to you thats insulting? I've gone out of my way to try and talk to you in atleast a half way civilised manner, and you accuse me of personal attacks?
Treat you with the respect you've shown me? I thought I damned well was, and this is what I get?
If I ignore every truth and just cry 'flaimbait' then what was that minor essay I just spent my afternoon typing out?
Either something is getting very, very lost in translation here then I am at a loss for words as to how you can see what I've been saying as anything of the kind.
Dukat I think you should take a step back regarding this thread, although it's nice to say what's on our mind.
Tohtori I think you are a great guy, that's the truth. I know my response probably rubbed you up the wrong way and I kinda feel bad for doing so (again, you're a clever, funny guy who makes me laugh so I'd rather not spend my time annoying you).
However I cant help but notice every thread which results in a heated discussion, has you smack bang in the centre.
What may come as a suprise is I dont write all this to make an enemy. I have an opinion and unfortunately it means I have to annoy a clever, funny FHOT member.![]()
When this stuff happens in almost every thread, surely it points to the fact that it isnt the subject matter to blame?(...)
When this stuff happens in almost every thread,(...)
is what he posted you posted that he wrote this:
and no, i didnt get it.
its failed now ;<Too bad that pic will 404 in about, 30 minutes![]()
