[QUOTE="Jaeger, post: 8630229, member: 27996"] Yes it does. Because dictionary. You are openly denying what a word means in the English language. Still no. The definition of words is not his, mine, yours, or the "gaming community's" call to make on all societies behalf. For someone who ostensibly wants objective truth, you seem to be all too willing to readily discard it when it suits your purposes to do so. Since you are obviously incapable of accepting the actual dictionary definition of a word; I can only conclude that your appeals for objectivity are in bad faith at best since it is obvious from the above exchange that you only accept the 'objectivity' that you want despite actual empirical evidence to the contrary. Yes it was. Appeal to authority is a common type of fallacy, or an argument based on unsound logic. Your citing of 'rule zero' was pointless, fallacious, and of unsound logic because [I]no where did I dispute that the game rules could be changed[/I]. And in fact I cited examples of how it commonly was. You will likewise have a difficult time finding anywhere in my posts that I said anyone was having badwrong fun doing whatever they wanted with the game. In fact, you will find the opposite. But none of those facts have stopped you repeatedly citing of 'rule zero' against a claim that was never made. Seeing as how I had to routinely explain how words were used wrong, and how we now have a open denial of what the dictionary definition of a word means; it would not surprise me in the least that there may be need of such instruction. Reveling in one's ignorance is generally not a good look, but to each their own. [/QUOTE]
