[QUOTE="Ovinomancer, post: 7411029, member: 16814"] You mistake me, I'm not defending Max's argument. I did say that his 100% argument didn't actually say anything, so adding and subtracting to that would also mean nothing. Your tilting at the wrong windmill. I'm left wondering what you disagreed with, here. You did construct an argument that it was a qualitative statement to say "more" or "less", and this was in response to a payer disliking anothet poster's claim of "more," so I assumed your argument was defending being able to claim "more." If you had a different point, it remains unclear. Note to self: [MENTION=5142]Aldarc[/MENTION] does not like the term "vinegar." When you use words like, "See, but that sort of thought still often results in conversational [b]religiosity[/b], except not one of conversion, but as combating perceived [b]heresies[/b] that [b]threaten the prevailing hegemonic expression[/b] of the game's [b]religious cultus[/b] [sic]...." it kinda seems like you have a bit of anger. Those aren't the words one uses to charitably describe another's argument, after all. Calling another's posts about playing pretend elves hegemonic and religious is a framing not used for discussion but dismissal. You're welcome, by the way; I did think you had a good statement wedged in there between the bad arguments about percentages and qualitative measures and the ridiculous bits at the end. You should run with that [/QUOTE]
