This is the response that anyone gives who sees more than 20 words strung together and can't be bothered to read what they say.  I can understand the guy perfectly, and he's taking a coherent philosophical position.

Funny, since you are the one telling others how they should post. How ironic. Get your stuff together... dude.

What's the irony?  The OP is about something.  I've entered this thread with an interest in discussing the ideas expressed in the OP.  You guys have not even responded to it, and I'm pretty sure haven't bothered to read it.

My question is this-- why?  Why piss on a thread that other people might have found interesting, just because it's not your cup of tea?

Fuck off.

Bennyboy, calm down. Nothing is stopping you from having a serious discussion on the matter with anyone who might be interested. If people want to mock the OP for presenting bad philosophy, let them. We are all free to respond to these ideas as overderisively as we like.

I don't see your name in green. Or red.


I will post whatever I want to, wherever I want. You dont have the authority to tell me otherwise. Your nastiness in telling others to "fuck off" is not appreciated.

I would love to engage in meaningful discussion with this guy, but as evidenced in his prior threads, he lacks the foresight or consideration to respond to serious questions. His other thread was moved. So what. He still hasn't anyone in that thread who was looking for serious discussion.

Nobody here is responding to the ideas presented at all.  As far as I can see, that pretty much defines trolling.  And I think trolling is bad.

That is your opinion. Just because I don't agree with you, doesn't give you the right to dictate to me that I shouldn't post.

Fuck off.

You do not get to deem what is to "piss" on a thread or not. You are the one more paused by others reply than in talking with the OP.

In the interest of not continuing this futile flame war, I will do as you say and:

I don't have the authority to stop you, nor would I if I did. However, your totally unnecessary desire to piss on a thread in which you have no intellectual interest is trolling. . . and THAT is definitely not appreciated.

The guy's thread wasn't moved. It was explained to him that he would have to wait 30 days to post his homepage and engage in discussion about it-- which point he got and agreed to. It was also suggested he start a new thread about a single idea. . . which he did. He took the time to type out an explanation of one idea, and wanted feedback. Instead he got fucking animal memes, insults, and comments about rock crushers.

I'll judge whatever I want to judge, fucker, and there's nothing you can say about it.  Now, I'm in a thread about a particular subject, and I'm interested in discussing that subject.  If you are not interested in the subject, how about press the fucking "back" button and not piss on the thread?

Double standard much? So its alright for you to be judgy but those who don't agree with you have to toe the line? No sorry. You don't get to be that way. If that's what you want, you can start up your own forum and make up your own rules.

I can tell you that I value the OP more than your worthless contribution and that you should fuck off.  Yes, I absolutely DO have that right.
