Translation - It's OK because it is me. It is perfectly fine for me to make an ass out of myself and flame others, but they are idiots if they do the same.

Response - grow up.

Old Reliable · 06-09-2003, 11:15 AM

Old Reliable · 06-09-2003, 11:24 AM

i dont see why you need to further this examination unless you can provide me with a good book on this subject? of course, this is the forum where no one will answer a difficult question

Sorry zoner, but this is one of the things about this board that is really starting to chap me. Yes, I am guilty of flaming the flamer, but old is one of the worst about randomly flaming legitimate threads. For the shit he gets away with, you would think he has naked goat pictures of the mods and admins around here.

[quote="Old Reliable":41798]its really sad you dn't know what the battle of the bulge was, yet you post on the forum that deals with a WW 2 game[/quote:41798]

Sorry to tell you, but I didn't know the exact details about the battle, either. I knew who was in it, and where it took place, but that's about it. So, please don't go jumping down people's throats.

maybe for the better, my first impulse was to write a 5-6 page essay on teh Battle of the Bulge, I thought no one would bother to read such a rant anyways so I said some stupid thing about how schools are crap now instead.

Ydiss · 06-09-2003, 01:36 PM

I'm not flaming, Zoner. I am sticking up for someone.

There is absolutely no need to post in the way Old Reliable did and I am starting to get pissed off with seeing it here.

If someone posts rudely or asks a stupid question or spams questions then fine, I don't see anything wrong with the sarcastic comments I see. After all being too "PC" is boring.

But, when someone takes the time to ask a question (especially one that is hardly ever asked) in an adult and respectful manner and someone comes here, reads the question and spams with a one sentance put-down it pisses me off.

It's even worse when that person doesn't apologise and just starts cussing the thread author's intelligence with poorly written English and usage of words in the wrong context.

Ignorance is not a lack of intelligence, especially when someone who is ignorant is willing to ask questions to learn and erradicate their ignorance. Lack of intelligence can be displayed in many ways, as Mr Reliable has so eloquently portrayed.

Damn right I'll stick up for Swill. By his posting his question here instead of using google I have learnt something as would a number of other people.

How crap would it be if every single person who asked a question on these forums was told to "Search google" and nothing else? Interesting forums they would be.

I've said what I think and I'll leave it at that.
