How to Prove Your Own Position without Trying Very Hard

[Randy Carson]

No, Mike. The more respected members of the forum are the ones who know the correct CATHOLIC ANSWERS to the many questions that are posed by Catholics and non-Catholics alike DAILY. It may surprise you, but my rather substantial library of copypasta has a purpose...to enable me to provide solid, orthodox Catholic Answers to real questions - in 6,000 characters or less - in only a few SECONDS. For example, just this week, I got a PM from someone active on an Orthodox board who wanted quotes from the ECF...um, Early Church Fathers regarding the keys given to Peter by Jesus. I had a few dozen that I sent over to him. Because I could.

Now, I don't copypasta as much here because there aren't as many questions being asked here, and because I've chosen to manage my time differently here. There, I can post one thing in a thread and move on, because there are so many other Catholics who are involved in the discussions. It's the Protestants and non-believers who are swarmed. Here I post one thing, and suddenly, I AM the the thread. I'm swarmed, and I have no backup. But it's cool. I'm learning how to manage the load. And I'm quote mining Ehrman, O'Neill, and others so I don't have to re-invent the wheel every time an atheist says, "Show me the evidence." I will. click. click.

Except you haven't. And your insistence on copy/pasting your posts instead of actually having a discussion with people is a large portion of the reason why you have gotten terrible reception here.

Except I haven't what?

And you say it's the copypasta and not the stout defense of Christianity that has gotten me in dutch with so many here?    

I never said I reported Kaninchen. I said she got suspended. Are you privy to some information about what motivated the mods at CAF? Are YOU Kaninchen?     jk

I didn't get that information from you, jackass. And yes, I am Kaninchen. The very same. I have hoodwinked the entire staff and am posing as the very same Jewess who has plagued you at the other forum until you reported her because she was making you look like a fool in front of the line of people waiting to prostrate themselves in front of you because you confirmed their bias in the form of 6,000 characters of copypasta which half of them didn't even read.

Well then, Kaninchen, you didn't have much of a response to Contarini, did you?  

C'mon, Mike...you obviously didn't think that I serioulsy thought you are Kaninchen. Man, you have been in a mood for weeks...

But yes, as you can see the mods at CAF do run their ship VERY differently. If you think that Kaninchen was suspended for a trifling, then ask yourself how is it that I've managed to NOT get banned or suspended in ten years there? Catholics get banned there, too, ya know...just look through the old threads for ample evidence of that. I've just taken on a different personna here...an edgier style that seems to match the carpet and the drapes. But I always try to mirror the tone of the person I'm talking to. Jenny, Jorm, Nemo...they're nice to me, so I'm nice to them. Others....not so much. And rather than getting into big pissing contests with some, I just ignore them. There are too many other people I'd rather talk to.

I have NO ONE on ignore at CAF. Let that sink in.

I don't fault you for having people on ignore. I'd imagine if I deigned to go to a religious forum for some reason, I'd probably have some people on ignore as well, if only to cut the chaff so I could respond. I do, however, fault you for continuously sniping at the staff and making childish, passive aggressive comments directed at the staff because this forum didn't suit you. I fault you for continuing to do it, even after multiple staff members acknowledged your complaint, and said it wasn't going to change. I fault you for whinging about people not being able to take a joke (this thread) when the entirety of your post count to this point has been condescending and officious---and we took this to just be yet another point in the catalog.

The parody of the OP was spot on, and the fact that so many people got pissed is because it cut a little too close to the quick for their comfort.

"This forum is not for the thin-skinned" or so I've been told.

But lock this thread if you think it's best. I won't mind a bit.

But, yes, it took me awhile to get used to the way things are done here, and I was not very happy about some things. But it's all good now. And I have not caused you any headaches recently, have I? (other than all the posts which are undoubtedly reported daily) So, I publicly thank you and all the staff for your forbearance. Hopefully, it was worth it, because I am now providing regular entertainment for all the troops. I mean, if it wasn't for me, you'd be stuck beating up on huggy and how long can you do that without getting bored? (No offense, huggy!)  

All told, Randy, yes, you have caused quite a few headaches of late. I won't post the report count publicly, I'll repeat it's non-zero.

I'm actually surprised, but it's a pity folks don't actually respond with arguments of their own instead of clicking the report button.

Well, that places you at Hawaii, Georgia Southern, or Navy. I have to say, I was not sure CPJ would survive this past year given the season they had two years ago, but they shocked a lot of folks. I absolutely love that offense.

I played safety for Navy for four years under PJ. (He was, by far, the highest paid person in the DoD) Coach Niumatololo took over for him for the 2007 bowl season.  I didn't get to play in the Army-Navy game that year because of a mangled knee from the very last defensive play in the Notre Dame game, where we beat ND for the first time in 47 years in triple OT. (Which I almost lost for us by biting HEAVY on play action then falling down when I tried to recover, and if it weren't for a dropped pass, I would have been the reason we lost.)

Well, let's build on this little bit of common interest and go forward with no hard feelings. Deal?
