I said the act of answering questions itself is rude?

Really? I don't remember saying that. Odd.

This, however, is a thread whose purpose is for me to answer questions. And you are not me. Questions are asked all over the forum all the time, why don't you go answer those instead of going out of your way to be an ass?

Why is it your purpose to answer these questions? Because your name is on the title of this thread? No, I have the freedom to answer these questions if I feel so. Whether I do or do not is my decision and mine only.

Since questions are asked all the time, why not answer them yourself instead of suggesting that I do?

Maybe I don't want to answer those ones. Maybe I want to answer *THESE* ones.

What makes these questions more worthy of your amazing presence than those elsewhere? It's because you're going out of your way to be an ass since the purpose of the thread is for Strangelove to answer questions and you for some reason feel the need to interject.

That and the fact PH's question was in fact addressed solely to Strangelove does in fact make you rude for answering it.

Lord knows where this shit is coming from.

No, don't just call people names because you feel like it. I'm not being an ass nor can you prove it. I merely want to answer the questions in this thread from time to time. Why? This forum is public and so is this thread. I'm entitled to answer these questions. Ironically, one could call you an ass for trying to restrict me from answering simple questions.

That and the fact PH's question was in fact addressed solely to Strangelove does in fact make you rude for answering it.

No, it doesn't. Stop projecting bullshit out of your mouth. Questions are generally given to be answered from a general perspective. Even when directed, if the question is answered, the said entity is not "Rude" for that said intrusion.

Sorgo, just let it go for once please.

That is in reference to you saying you would rather answer questions here than anywhere else. 🙄
You seem to have a short memory.

Yes you are being an ass, if not just by answering the questions than by going out of your way to agitate and instigate shit with Strangelove amongst others.

How am I restricting your answering such questions? Hmmm I don't remember telling you to stop, I merely said that the act of doing so and your general attitude makes you look like an ass.
That and Strangelove has said before that people are free to answer the question after he does so first.

And interrupting a conversation in which a question is directed to a single person even on a public forum is in fact rude, as it would be if two people were talking on the street and you butted in because you happened to hear something that sparked your interest.

But please, go on, try to win with your impenetrable logic and backpedaling. I feel as though I've wasted too much time over this as is.

It was semantics to deteriorate my debate, although it held no relevance. You referred to my "amazing presence", Silver Tears.

I was hoping no one would be foolish enough to attempt to pass that off as a shoddy reference.

But hey, that's just me! 😉

No, I was not going out of my way to start trouble. I was merely addressing some issues and asking a few questions.

I am entitled to ask Strangelove questions, seeing as that is the purpose of this thread that you seem so bent upon fighting for.

I smell a hearty contradiction!

How am I restricting your answering such questions? Hmmm I don't remember telling you to stop, I merely said that the act of doing so and your general attitude makes you look like an ass.

You're trying oh so hard to degrade me. Calling me an ass and basically telling me what I should do. You're ATTEMPTING to restrict me. If you say otherwise, It's merely lying on your part.

That and Strangelove has said before that people are free to answer the question after he does so first.

Ridiculous! I have to await Strangelove to ask a question first? That's not in the rules of this forum. This is a public thread. I am entitled to ask a question first, not wait for another member with parallel rights to initiate the answer for these said questions.

That's utterly ridiculous, isn't it?

And interrupting a conversation in which a question is directed to a single person even on a public forum is in fact rude, as it would be if two people were talking on the street and you butted in because you happened to hear something that sparked your interest.

No, your analysis does not apply whatsoever. This is not "On the street", this is a public forum on the internet with different rules and unparalleled circumstances. Comparing the two is ignorance at it's best and nothing more.

But please, go on, try to win with your impenetrable logic and backpedaling. I feel as though I've wasted too much time over this as is.

Your dry and inane sarcasm is as lacking as your debate.

Go big or go home, m'doll.

The word was 'answer', not 'ask.'

It's a typo. We've all done it before. Thank you for addressing it. Why are you highlighting my typo and always forget yours generally?

I have politely asked that members restrain from answering questions before I get the chance to, since it's my thread. I don't care if you add your input later.

You don't care? How about this: I don't care if you want to add your input FIRST. There is no specific forum rule that I cannot answer the questions given. Yes, you are the primary entity supposed to answer the questions but I am entitled to answer questions as well. You don't care? How come?

And I am politely trying to say I wish to answer questions first or certain questions that I take a liking to. I do not see how this is hard to understand.

I realize this, but I just want to OCCASIONALLY answer some of them. Why can't I? Do you want to answer all of them? How come I cannot answer a few once in a while?

You said, quote "Answering questions is NOT rude", as if I said it was. Which is untrue. Strawman fallacy

No, you made an assumption. No fallacy was made and I showed no indication I was referring to your statement.

How is that a Strawman fallacy? Nothing false was built to attack, Strangelove.

If it was, show me the object of fallacy. I'll wait. All day, probably.

It is not my purpose but the purpose of the thread.

So, since it is not your purpose, but that of the threads, I can answer questions as well since the general purpose does not pretain to you?

And there is nothing keeping you from answering the questions, expect maybe a sense of decency and fellowship.

So, I can be decent by not answering questions members ask?

Humorous to the extreme.

I do answer questions elsewhere from time to time, but this thread is where I do it primarily.

And OCCASIONALLY, I like to answer questions here as well.

Am I not allowed to answer questions here?

That's not my problem, it's yours for being an inconsiderate prick.

Reported. Try not to resort to such a primitive outburst. It's for the masses, Strangelove.

How am I being an inconsiderate prick?
