[QUOTE="FrogReaver, post: 9229112, member: 6795602"] Can I ask for a favor? Can you clearly identify the posts or parts of your posts that you will engage in discussion around. I don’t want to ask everytime I’m in doubt and I don’t want to waste my time responding to something you have no intention of replying to. Invent a short hand if you want, just some indication would be really helpful. I’m not opposed to discussing with you, I am just opposed to discussions in which I don’t get to speak. we could probably meet in the middle there, but can’t do that without some back and forth speaking - so looks like it won’t happen. Thanks, but saying my piece on something you won’t engage with seems mostly pointless to me. I’m not incensed or mad or anything at all. I respect that there’s some things you don’t want to discuss. If everyone was so open on that front it would make for better discussions (and I include myself there too). I’m sure you can respect my not wanting to be pulled into commenting on stuff you say that you don’t want to engage about. I have quite a few on ignore but I mostly read the comments, and will reply at times - it’s mostly for a reminder that past interactions haven’t ended well and to tread carefully. I have no intention of putting you on ignore. If you really think we have no future of constructive communication then let me be your first block! I don’t think the same or I would put you on ignore. That’s fair. Consider this though. We just had a discussion about the word ‘no’. In some jargon it means one hyper specific thing, but in general it’s broadly applicable outside that one thing. I think if the tables were reversed and I had a huge book of jargon where the normal meaning was applicable to both things and the jargon was only 1, it would be a super confusing and frustrating discussion for you as well.
