Sput, I'm not sure whether your response was initiated by arrogance, ignorance or just plain irritation at being exposed for what you are.

Are you simply annoyed that your modus operandi had been exposed for what it is? The only peoples' views I have criticised have been in a well-mannered debate, certainly nothing selected for serious discussion that wasn't said in earnest. I would mention "pots & kettles", but that probably wouldn't be pretentious enough for you!

It's a discussion forum, not a place for ego posturing.
Sput wrote:I honestly think you're wrong and fucking rude.

All I do here is post stuff. If someone says something that's plain wrong, I try and make them see why. If they piss me off continually, I'm rude to them. If they post something I disagree with, I argue with them.
You're wrong, Sput. I'm trying to be helpful and constructive.

Your general style is aggressive, demeaning and generally intended to ridicule the poster's comments; especially if you think they won't respond and you can get away with a "cheap win" with those reading your well-contrived comments.

Your comments can be humorous, and I have also had many well-meaning debates with you. But you should perhaps keep some of that superior intellectual attitude tucked away back in its box on ocassion rather than aiming for the "quick quip" at someone else's expense.

Constructive cricism? Exposed? All you've done is called me names! Yeah, sometimes I take shots at people when they're annoying or rubbish, but at least I don't hide behind long words and delete my messages before people read them. My posts are generally intended to say what I think about things and sometimes people. You just interpret them all as trying to score points when I'm not even playing your pathetic little game.

EDIT: No, I'm really peeved now. What have I been exposed as? What MO has suddenly come to light?

Stayaway from coastal areas they say. Well that will certainly guarantee the usual morons who rush to the seafront to watch the waves crashing in land. Oneday one of them will get washed out to sea, oneday.
Mondays are my duvet day, so the weather can do what it wants tomorrow. I'll be watching it from the warmth and safety of my bed.

I'm not really expecting it to be too bad. Maybe one or two trees blown over and roof tiles dislodged.

I love how the media whips everything up into a frenzy. Tossers.

If only that were true. Personally I'm gagging for a bit of sexed-up weather.

That sounds so much worse than I thought it was going to. Sorry.

Hmm. Can I experience your warm front, Jenny?

That sounds rather childish, Sput. I've not thrown any infantile names or unsults in your direction. I have simply used the opportunity to air a long-held criticism. It's you who is turning this into a storm of words! (*desperately trying to keep the thread on track*)

I often edit a post before people respond to it, or correct it after acknowledging an error (and mark it as such). I'm not aware of deleting any posts other than those made in error. However, if I did ever delete a post before someone had the chance to read it, then I am wondering how you would know of its content.

I'm not playing a game, pathetic or otherwise. I'm not being malicious either; I've explained all that above. I'm not into point-scoring, I'm simply stating a point of view as best I can and hope that you take the comments on board.

End of!

And helplessly failing as you continue blabbing on and on and on and on pointlessly.

On another note, it is now dark and quiet. Haha, I am scared to get up tomorrow, half expecting Armageddon. :P

No, you've called me thoroughly grown-up names JUST NOW.
Let's re-live a few!

arrogance, ignorance, snob (paraphrasing) and from what I can tell some kind of charlatan

End of? It's just beginning matey. You'd better show some damned good examples to back up your sizeable post or fuck right off.
