[QUOTE="Wayside, post: 927355, member: 8394"] [b]Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: ?[/b] Frankly, your actual quotes can be confusing. But what's more important, the way to point out bad reasoning is to break it down into propositions and get rid of the rhetoric. However, the question was 'what's with the attitude?' so in this case my response was 'I dunno, you tell me,' hence I left the pertinent rhetoric in, because that's where the bad attitude originated. The fact that you only mention the top of my two examples speaks volumes. But since you didn't actually give any reasons in your post in any case, I have no idea why I bothered to say all of that. That's right, no reasons. You just restated your position. You know, the one you thought I missed. It's a fine, valid position though. Players should have fun. Word. (Another minor point: just now, you didn't actually give reasons why my statements are 'wrong' either. That's more of that bad attitude thing. An argument can be made from your statement, but obviously I don't want to attribute something to you you didn't actually say. You do imply that I don't quote you directly because my comments are disingenuous, which is funny.

However you indicated that the length of the thread was proof of that wrong. The [I]reasonable[/I] reply to this assertion is to get the facts of the thread straight, whatever they may be. So don't hold his being reasonable against him. I say it to you because, unless my memory has lapsed, you were the one that made the initial comment. I say it seems to annoy you because it has been brought up repeatedly, most often as somehow being indicative of Fusangite's arrogance.
