So we have to play the game in which we act like we don't know the intentions of otherts even when they are so obvious? This is one pof those things I find hard to understand about this place, we have users that constantly lie trying to create an atmosphere of pessimism around the thing they fear (this is not the worse case though) and we all know it, but it is accepted, i cannot refute his "opinion" because is just that, an opinion, but I can make him know how obvious the intentions behind those comments are in hope that they don't repeat them so often. I won't report him because I don't think he should be banned for that at all, but some consequence is needed I think, and I don't see other way appart form ignore it, which I trouble with.

Several things -

1. An opinion can be refuted. If what he said was factual, then I'd agree. But, unless you're saying that it is, you can present a counter argument. If he is lying, explain how? What in his wording is deceptive? You can't say it's irrefutable and then try to dismantle it with "if a user is lying". Lying how?

2. There isn't a game, here. Many, many posters on this site don't stoop to a level of attacking a user personally that they don't agree with and get by just fine. You're capable of it, which then leads to...

3. (The Bold) If you have trouble ignoring something, then that is a situation you need to deal with on your own terms. 

4. If you know his intentions, then report it. If that is not something you'd prefer to do, then other options are available to you. Attacking him personally, however, isn't one of them.

Ok, I just think is too inocent to be reported yet too annoying to be ignored, but I'll try to ignore it in the future.
