From my perspective, having not seen the thread in particular and not being a regular back room reader/poster anyway, it seems that the original issue is now largely irrelevant, and that successive readers of
this thread will base their views on
Vuk's attitude within this particular thread itself, and not on the thread/incident in question.
Ok, let me start with a point by point disection. As a matter of fact, I will skip my usual chronilogical order and tackle Point By Point Disection (PBPD) right here. I never us PBPD unless I disagree with every point being made (or at least all the ones I comment on). It is not a sign of a bad debator, but a thorough one. If I can some my reply up in a sentence at the end, I will do so, but usually the posts I am replying to are so flawed that they require each point to be addressed individually...yours for instance
.
The original thread is what I am arguing, and a don't give a duck's flat rahi (no, before you frantically search, this is not a swear, a vulgarity, or a sexual reference
) about what people think of my attitude in this thread. I have displayed a very bad attitude in this thread (bet ya didn't think you'd get me to admit that, eh?). It is in responce to months of injustice committed against me, and as long as I don't break any rules, I don't care if my attitude is bad here. This is my rave thread in a sense. (one that hopefully will bring some attention from the admins and get them to fairly judge my case) My attitude here has nothing to do with the thread in question. The thread is in question because it is important! It is WHAT is important, or more specifically, the injustice done to me because of my thread.
It seems to me
Vuk, that you have, shall we say, a "talent" for getting yourself into scrapes, through your overly direct and unsubtle approach to particular issues.
Yes, I am very direct and very unsubtle. I am that type of person. If someone doesn't like me, I would rather they tell me and me and him have an understanding than to have him go on pretending to be my friend. I have views, others have views. There is no need to dislike each others over their views, but if someone wants to dislike me, I will dislike them right back. Is it that people don't like my "unsubtle" (ness?) or that they don't like my honesty?
It also seems that after getting into these situations you will almost "fight to the death" in trying and justify yourself and seemingly wriggle your way out again - instead of backing down and admitting your error.
When I am right, I usualy will not back down. That is not a bad thing. The only reason I have ever stuck to something that I have been at error with is when I needed to to show a point. A certain one that I have recently made (but will not name, thoughan animal reference is floating through my mind) was to demonstrate the same pigheaded lying that was made by two other members, and to show how ridiculous some of the accusations (in which my words were horribly twisted) made against me were. Also, I was feeling like spreading a little humor. :P
You constantly try to point out the inconsistency in the justice dealt out here at the .org, yet you seem oblivious to the glaring inconsistencies in your own comments.
There have been inconsistencies in my comments, but I have been the first to point them out. The "justice" (though I am not sure that that is a good word for it) on the Org is horribly biased. I say that now, and will continue to unless changes are made.
When these are are pointed out you, you will begin the word for word post post dissection and demolition process, which is the mark of a bad debater. Jumping on your opponent's posts in a piecemeal form, trying to dissect and discredit sentence by sentence or even word for word where possible. This in itself is not endearing and you have shown countless examples of it in this very thread.
Already covered this up above.
Your comment about Muhammed being an 'animal' is a classic example of inconsistency. You intended this in a derogatory way, I think 99.999% of orgahs can work that one out, yet you have now backtracked and tried to explain this as:
I find it hard to believe that .00001% of the Org could not see the humor in many of the comments I made about that. I did not expect for more than half to get the meaning behind it. I don't think that you did.
You seem to be overly obsessed with "legality" of your comments, and not how your comments are actually perceived. There is no sense in "getting away" with posting something offensive simply because you can explain it away later in that fashion. That does not remove the original insult or the offence and it doesn't leave anyone any more convinced.
I proved that what I said was fact and not insult (thought the sarcastic way I worded several phrases was meant to be a little more than a tad insulting), so I was accused of legal transgressions. That is why I defend them. Many Orgahs say this that just fall inside legality, but are highly insulting and get away with it. That is a big part of this discussion. It is not about me, but about the justice on the Org (with an emphasis on a single thread), and so completely relevant.
