Please do rage quit again. You won't be missed.

Please.

Pretty please.

Pretty, pretty please.

Ok. You want it, you got it.

Lol, firstly, you didn't "destroy" anyone's argument, you've only waved them away, which anyone with half-a-brain can see. Secondly, if you have a rebuttal to anything I've said, you either have the 'nads to say it or you don't -- this pussyfooting of yours might be funny but it isn't substantive.

Finally, call back when you have some experience in the matter under discussion. Until then, you're an inexperienced prick running his mouth who is is too foolish to see the ditch he is digging for himself.

Do carry on. It's not like you're impressing anyone but yourself.

Where's the "it's about fucking time" button?

I think you're massively projecting right now, old man, and I feel sorry for you.

Some observations:
-EP still can't understand why he's not well-liked around here, even though he basically continues to spout, "I'm right and you're wrong even though I don't know shit about the topic!" ad nauseum, as he's done in countless threads prior to this one.
-Kit is doing his "I'm different from eeeeeeveryone and I'm bored, so I'm going to bring the drama" thing. (sorry, Kit, but once in awhile, you're worse than a high school chick)
-Parents are trying to discuss the subject-at-hand, but somehow (Oh, I wonder how), the thread keeps getting derailed.

I can't blame the people who are getting pissed off ITT, but please don't let the drama bring you down. This was, and could continue to be, a really interesting convo. I don't have kids, but I'm learning a ton in between the bullshit posts.

Translation: NO U

Keep making my points for me. The harder you swing the shovel, the deeper you dig your hole.

Ok, stop with the fucking death metaphors. It's creepy and you sound a little crazy.

It's not derailment, Empress. We're having an argument over my reply to one of the contributors to the thread. It happens. It's called a discussion. I'm sorry to burst your bubble, but forums aren't meant to be places were we routinely give out replies only to the OP and leave it at that. We're meant to discuss things, as we are, and especially when there's been a misunderstanding.

You know what actual derailment would be? If I started talking about math or football all of a sudden with no connection whatsoever to the topic being formally discussed. I'm tired of pointing this out over and over again and it frightens me that now I have to do it to an ex-staff member as well(although, on second thought, knowing your lack of objectivity, it doesn't really surprise me after all).

Oh, please keep telling me how forums work

Wow, this feels like another mafia thread.

Losty, I am pretty sure EP isn't trolling, he is just behaving as he usually does everywhere.

EP, you suggested this about Thena: "Not to mention you sound a bit like a maniac. Shouldn't be looking after kids in the first place, if you ask me." which is a pretty shitty thing to say based on the discussion till that point. You don't know anything about her or why she did what she did, and you have no right to judge her. Also since you are basing this on statistics, look at https://www.childhelp.org/child-abuse-statistics or just google for other reports. For a parent, they have to be extra careful because most of the time these dangers occur from people close to or even within the family. A parent's job doesn't end with just protecting the child but ensuring the child can protect itself when needed.

People, most of you, if not all, have prior experience with EP. If you don't care for his opinions, just ignore him, but please stop derailing this further with pointless arguments.
