haha very funny, but fun is entertainment, and there's plenty of it in the argumentative side of this thread. Partake in it if you want to.

I'm having fun making fun of you argumentative asshats, yes.

Is most of it happening in your head?

No.
Maybe.

how is he going to win like that when half the site doesn't like his personality.

lol
"why do you dislike me"
this is why

Verbatim is the worst marketer I've ever seen. He wants people to jump on board with him to change the site but at the same time calls them idiots. Yeah, that's not how you throw a pitch.

and morons like you (presumably) discard everything about his arguments because of this; which is not in my nature; and is actually something that I've never seen before going onto the internet, which makes it so annoying that people are this unreasonable.

But hey, that's just my take on it all.

I agree with both Psy and Verb on this. Both of their points are correct IMO

Already jumping to call me a moron for a correct observation on how Verbatim tries to "pitch" his arguments?

Also, if you'd pay attention to the reason people don't give credit to him anymore is because he derails multiple threads and can be a total buzzkill in some of them. Nobody likes that so it's, in his words, "not unreasonable to be bitter" about Verbatim.

No, I'm calling you a moron because you fail to process information that's not interesting to you. You refuse it, and make fun of how it's so unattractive to you.

For the latter part: Read my previous comment in where I called you a moron.

Now you are making false claims. Never did I overlook any of what he said because I found it "uninteresting", at all. I can't disagree because I believe the ideas are bad? I never "refused" anything, you're just making assumptions and an ass of yourself.

Pitch, pl- sorry, I meant Bitch, please! You must have influenced me from the many times you said pitch.

>I said pitch twice
>"Many times"

Actually, you'd only said it once at the time I called you a moron. It was also your first comment, and the first interaction with you that I had.

because their reasons for not "jumping on board with me" are completely asinine, and based on fundamental differences between what we think a forum should be in general

seems reasonable to me that i'd get bitter over it

You don't understand marketing at all.

Oh, and the "change the site" part is unknown to me. I have no idea what you're talking about.

You clearly haven't been here long enough if you don't know what I'm referring to.

Edit -

OH BBY A TRIPLE

Doesn't he live in USA? That would mean that the time zones would make it difficult for me to- you know what? My brain is crying out right now, and I think that it's because of how full of shit you are. I can counter anything you throw at me. Child's play.

Yeah, I feel like I'm playing with a child, certainly. Great (lack of) counter, buddy.

Fine, then let's get to facts, asshat. I know that I'm right, but if my knowing isn't enough, then let's go for round two, which is obviously going to be different.

When did Verbatim pitch his ideas so badly?

You claim to be right but, as evidenced by this thread, there is nothing to substantiate that claim. It shows you like to try to twist the argument in your favor by throwing out false claims tagged up with assumptions, though. And then once those fail you start claiming you have all the facts. A typical routine of someone who has no substance.

To answer your question, he does it and has done it in multiple threads where he whines about this post or that post and goes on to talk about how the site would be MUCH BETTER if it was done from his iron-fisted idea of a forum, all the while insulting the very user base he's trying to convince to change the forums.

Oh boy, here we go.

It's relevant, because I attacked
"Verbatim is the worst marketer I've ever seen. He wants people to jump on board with him to change the site but at the same time calls them idiots. Yeah, that's not how you throw a pitch."
and you're telling me that you don't care about the marketing. That's clearly not the case, or you wouldn't be posting all of that.

Time to look at it in retrospect:

"I don't care about the marketing of Verbatim's replies."
You said pitch so many times that bla bla bla (meaning that you've been talking about it so much)
"I only said pitch twice" (thinking that I care about the word itself)
No, you said it once (which shifts attention to the original argument)
__________________________________
If you look at our first interaction, you can see that my accusation should be correct. If it's not, then you spew a lot of shit about irrelevant things, and that's misleading, as it's completely irrelevant to anything other than the label "Verbatim".

Wanna be right and be seen as a fool, or admit, and we can drop this?

The difference here is
-Making fun of someone's appearance
-Flaming someone for disagreeing with you

If anyone actually gets butthurt over being called ugly online, they really reaaaaaally need to get over themselves.

It's official. You're the stupidest mod. Congrats.

If anyone actually gets butthurt over being flamed for having a different opinion online, they really reaaaaaally need to get over themselves.

The problem is that flaming of the sort Psy describes isn't at all conducive to whatever discussion is going on at that time, and potentially harmful--especially if the topic is serious. It's not really about whether people get mad.

Now, answer my question. When did Verbatim pitch his ideas so badly? Give me the time.

There is no time. He's always doing it, that was part of my point.

"You clearly haven't been here long enough if you don't know what I'm referring to."
I countered that, but you said that it was bad. I wanted to go on facts like this:
Verbatim started doing this shit at Monday last week.
I've been posting nonstop since Sunday two weeks ago to now.

That way it would've disproved of the bad counter theory, and shown you with facts that it was a good counter.

The problem is that flaming of the sort Psy describes isn't at all conducive to whatever discussion is going on at that time, and potentially harmful--especially if the topic is serious. It's not really about whether people get mad.

oh god

i can't do it

You have to understand that what you just said was very circular. You say flaming is bad if isn't conducive to the discussion--making threads like this okay, because flaming users is the entire point. Okay, but that misses MY central point, which is... threads like this should be against the rules. There should be no "who is the ugliest user," "who is the stupidest user." I'd love to participate in such threads, but at the end of the day, it just creates drama, tension, and a bad atmosphere. The mods talk about new members being driven away by the negative atmosphere created by the userbase--but they do so little to curtail it.

Banning threads like this is not a hugbox mentality. Like I said--that would be acting like forum topics are black and white. Like, you either have to make a thread that promotes insulting users, or complimenting users. That's what Psy was tacitly suggesting. And that's simply not the case. A true hugbox would be if literally every single thread was a circlejerk thread, but that's not what we are. We're a shitbox, not a hugbox.

there i did it

Fat people think they're attractive,
