[QUOTE="Celebrim, post: 5445288, member: 4937"] So, per your judgments so far, if I respond to sarcastic and obnoxious remarks with sarcasm then I'm being just as bad as the rest... And, if I respond to sarcastic and obnoxious remarks by pointing out that they are sarcastic, obnoxious, insulting, and sometimes downright slanderous... then I'm being insulting (per your list)... And, if I try to engage in reasoned debate and point out the logical flaws in peoples sarcastic and obnoxious statements, then I'm a conceited know-it-all who is not willing to have an honest exchange... So, based on your posts, from what you've told me thus far, what I'm supposed to do is just shut-up, stop participating in this thread, and if don't play D&D your way, that I should stop playing Dungeons and Dragons. Is there anything I missed? Do you think I'm being unfair in this summary of you participation in this thread? And, if so, would you like me to post the relevant quotes? I promise to give them plenty of context. This is the second time through this schtick of getting all self-righteous after you post some out of context quotes and get called on it, and I'm just wondering if you are done yet? You seem to be of the opinion that an argument is won by being the first one to call the other person rude (or whiny... or whatever). The thing is I'm not actually bad at insulting people. I'm just not allowed to do it here. I really can insult people quite well. What I'm not particularly good at is innuendo and plausible deniablity and things of that sort. It's pretty much hostile or helpful and not much in between. And the other thing is, people don't always take my posts seriously, but in general getting people to take me seriously is not a problem I have here or anywhere else. So, if you aren't taking my posts seriously, I am in fact arrogant enough to think there is a possibility that it isn't my fault. Arrogance is a charge I will concede to; unwillingness "to have an exchange" is not. [/QUOTE]
