| Lord Flashheart said: Are you serious.
Why bring GT and forza into it when we was talking about why he was banned? If he meant something why didn't he say it? Why doesn't he say it about other games he was defending? He admitted he said it to cause trouble? If he sticks to Sony threads then why is he in this one? "In Internet slang, a troll is someone who posts controversial, inflammatory, irrelevant or off-topic messages in an online community, such as an online discussion forum, chat room or blog, with the primary intent of provoking other users into an emotional or disciplinary response[1] or of otherwise disrupting normal on-topic discussion.[2]" He admits he did it to get on peoples nerves. And did he send you the other conversation? |
He left out the first four quotes, which frankly make you both look pretty bad. He shows a temper and admits to making sockpuppets (I think) and also to basically posting the original remarks to "get even" with people posting negative info about GT5.
On the other hand, you show your own bad side, and make some ridiculous attempt to use strict logic to condemn a slogan in mockery of what you presume JEDE3 is doing, but that was actually a really pointless rant of yours, which did not tie in to any specific claim of where JEDE3 acted like that.
(Not to mention the fact that you practically contradict yourself: 'Your objection that it's not realistic is faulty because you're being insanely strict in your consideration of "realistic"!' vs. 'Your objection that it's not realistic is faulty because it's only unrealistic because it's on cosmetic mode and it would look silly if you were driving something with no front end!')
JEDE3's original post, while made in perhaps a poor spirit, was on topic and not (IIRC) particularly inflammatory in substance, any more than ANY reasonable criticism might be considered "inflammatory" by thin-skinned fans. As for his tone, it is pretty heated, but then so is yours. (Actually, you are probably more arrogant/condescending than hotheaded, but your tone is at least as inflammatory as his.)
To get back to the heart of this little side venture: you claim that your main argument in the post in which you misread JEDE3's post remained sound, and are apparently claiming that that main argument was that he was trolling. I think this is a bit rich coming from someone who recently claimed he kept asking for more and more evidence just to see how long the other guy would oblige, and taunted him for how long he did so, but whatever.
You: "Looks like you're seeing things your way again. The title to the message telling me why you got banned was "been banned for calling nightsurge a douche" now it's because you mentioned a game in another games thread!?! Do you constantly lose grip on reality?
"You criticised the damage graphics in forza then claimed you meant that both Forza and GT aren't realistic. without mentioning GT so I said if that was the point then you should mention GT as well or it looks like you're trolling."
I'll tell you right now, the first part stands out a lot more than the second (what with all the exclamation points), but let's go with your claim that the second part was actually more important. I'll admit that JEDE3's sanity does not directly bear on whether he's trolling when he talks about Forza's drawbacks without mentioning GT5's, so the fact that your first argument was obliterated does not invalidate the second.
No, what invalidates it is the idea that he has to end all criticism of Forza 3's damage simulation with adding something about how GT5's is also bad, even if the thread is only about Forza. Clearly that's a silly argument and you ought to be ashamed for claiming that he should do so to avoid the appearance of trolling.
You harp on and on endlessly about the one (admittedly clearly wrong) claim he made that 'his point was that both Forza and GT5' have this problem. I am willing to believe that he misspoke and meant to say that that's what his POSITION is, not what his POINT was, since he clearly should have known that his own post, which he just wrote, did not actually mention GT5.
As for your question "Why bring GT and forza into it when we was talking about why he was banned?":
The answer is simple: because that was the subject of the one out of 70 comments that you were apparently able to find objectionable content in. (To support your claim that he went around spreading FUD or whatever.)
As for "If he meant something why didn't he say it?" (referring, I presume, to what I spoke of three paragraphs up):
It's not like you're Shakespeare yourself, so it may behoove you to not cast stones from your glass house.
As for "If he sticks to Sony threads then why is he in this one?":
I think it is reasonable to not assume he meant absolutely 100% of the time, especially since he was responding to the accusation/implication (I forget which) that he went around the MS forums a lot spreading FUD. 1 thread out of a dozen spent in MS-land is not supportive of that.

My advice to fanboys: Brag about stuff that's true, not about stuff that's false. Predict stuff that's likely, not stuff that's unlikely. You will be happier, and we will be happier.
