    It's not that you "posture as some enlightened being."

    It's that remaining calm and reasonable around someone who has "troll", "fucker", "boneheaded" and the like at the tip of his tongue (ie. you) is too much of a challenge for most people here and in general.

    Perhaps Gendanken and a few others can keep up with you, but as you can see, most cannot and instead don't think all that favorably about you.

    Exactly.

    Which is why I wonder what you are trying to accomplish with these threads in SFOG.

    You don't seem to be genuinely interested in the betterment of this place.

    So what are you doing, if not indulging yourself?



    This place is home? Really?

    Then why are you shitting all over it?

    popularity contests are just silly


    so getting bogus infractions should not be a concern?
    rectifying them is an indulgence?

    I wonder what you are trying to accomplish with that focus
    You don't seem to be genuinely interested in the betterment of this place.

    So what are you doing, if not indulging yourself?


    mmmm
    contrast with this sentiment....

    It's not a popularity contest.


    It should be.


    The way you go about that sometimes - with all the name-calling - is an indulgence.


    I am not revoking anything I said. I wish I could be so detached and aloof as you are. I never suggested I want to be a copy of you. Bah.

    But you apparently will not share the secret of how to become that way, will you?

    indeed
    it is your sense of well being that should be my concern
    never mind that i have to sit out participating in sci for days on end for bogus reasons

    how silly to think that i am the victim when it is clear that all this "pain and suffering" is actually yours to bear

    Victims don't call their abusers "trolls," "fuckers," "boneheaded" and the like.

    But martyrs do.

    Just pointing out that the first is not a strawman as it is a statement of observation, same with the second... a strawman is an attack on a person instead of their argument... he isn't attacking you in the slightest.

    Oh, and just putting this out there... calling people idiots and megalomaniacs... generally not a good way to make friends :shrug:

    I also have to say... Gustav, you are dodging every question put your way and redoubling your efforts to appear the victim... victim of what? Signal has pointed out, quite clearly, why some people react to you the way they do, and did it much more tactfully than I could have. I try to act, both online and in real life, on a simple premise - don't act like a douche unless I want treated like one... golden rule kind of thing, ya know? If you act like a jackass and treat people like shit... well, how do you expect them to treat you back?

    incredible
    are you asserting that james deliberately and dishonestly interpreted my post in a way that enables an infraction and ban because he is a jackass and wanted to treat me like shit simply because i act like a jackass and treat others like shit?

    for the record
    i accept james assertion of a misunderstanding
    i do not however accept any blame since i hold the post is quite clear and unambiguous as to who the insult is directed at
    james reviewed and agreed with that assessment hence the reversal of infraction

    again
    it is a matter of standard forum convention

    dashed lines within a post indicate the termination of a conversation and the onset of another. it is a separator
    linked text signify that any sentiment or whatnot expressed by that text refers to the source of the link

    this is forums 101
    i expect all who participate here to know these.
    i especially expect those that run this site know these formatting techniques.


    the trolls here however see an opportunity to inflame and incite
    hence here we are on the 6th page

    how is this person even qualified to be a mod? he confuses the strawman argument with an ad hominem

    umm
    does the fact that i was sent on a 3 day ban for bogus reasons even mean anything to you? does the fact that conventional semantics allows for the assertion of victimhood in a case like this? do you understand that pathology is not required for such a claim?

    gustav was a victim of an erroneous infraction

    it is that fucking simple

    is it because of your idiotic sensibilities derived from pop culture where one finds victim status to be held in disdain and kneejerk prejudice that all invocations of such are automatically invalid?

    -----------------
    present all questions
    hopefully they are all relevant to the ban and subsequent reversal of infraction

    You are correct - I did in fact mistake the two and for that I apologize -

    a strawman is deliberately twisting another mans words, not attacking the other man. My bad. Note to self - stop trying to multi-task while setting up virtual-box servers for my class... it ends with my foot in my mouth

    As to the second part - you are still dodging the questions that were posed by Signal, specifically:

    That post was just Gustav using the equivalent of a double entendre.

    That way he could imply that I'm a retard, and yet by naming his link retard he can claim he wasn't actually doing so.

    But the use of different fonts and the alignment of the retard text with the previous reply to me suggests strongly that he was indeed calling me a retard.

    James did him a favor by reversing the infraction, but he need not apologize for banning him for that post.

    He recently did essentially the same thing in the Quotes thread.

    http://www.sciforums.com/showpost.php?p=2844929&postcount=2

    His veiled personal attacks against other members of the forum are both childish and transparent.

    i reject signals inane and hypocritical premises
    how the fuck would you like me to respond to the latter?

    "i am shitting on sci because............."

    dumbfuck questions like that merit a response?

    kitt
    why do you persist in this flame war?
    why do you dodge my questions?

    a sentiment that could only stem from paranoia

    a delusional fantasy and malicious conjecture

    that explanation seems to be pulled out of your ass. it makes zero sense and is convoluted beyond belief. all quotes that are not post quotes have the same format. they are indented and usually use serif

    and admitted

    I see no reason why a response isn't possible... after all, it is a legitimate question - if you like sci-forums enough to consider it "your home", why do you continue to stir the shit-pot? At the very least, the first question should merit a response. As for "how the fuck" I'd like you to respond - preferably truthfully and in plain speech, without any double-meanings if possible.

    I persist in an attempt to determine the root cause of any issues that there may be and what can be done to resolve said issues - I was under the impression that the job of a moderator was to help keep the peace - was I incorrect in that assumption?

    And what question would you like me to answer?

    Let me ask - would you call THIS an insult? Or "a simple verbal command"...?

    I would consider it both - it is a simple statement/command, given to the owner of the message preceding it - at the same time, you are implying that they are low enough to warrant eating shit, and thus insulting them... see how great it is to play with the english language?

    /sigh

    no it does not
    you two are severely lacking in both comprehension and intellect
    i will not explain the obvious when it should be readily apparent


    how do you feel you are doing so far? this thread was only intended for james to review infractions. he took care of the latest one on page 13. the matter was resolved. can you explain why we are still here on page 17?

    who is responsible?
    you and signal yes?

    are you making progress?
    are you fixing things?
    or is it getting worse?

    /chuckle

    none have been posed eh?


    thats your prerogative of course
    why don't you go eat shit as well?
    if you get bored doing that, feel free to roll over and die

    I will then take your refusal to answer the question posed as an inability to from this point on



    I feel as though I would have better luck trying to lick my own elbow - it's becoming increasingly clear you have no desire to be amiable, courteous, or even remotely pleasant to converse with... so why do I persist in looking for some redeeming quality :shrug:

    If anything, the situation has gone nowhere... well, it has, but not the direction intended I assure you.


    I did not say that - I simply asked what question you would like me to answer. Stop trying to put words in other peoples mouths - you just end up with your foot in yours.



    *shrug* I prefer to eat food, and I rather like living. However, should my preferences at some point change, I will keep your suggestions in mind.
