This is true, but it should not. His thread is a change, this is a distortion. They're two different things. Sorry.

distort = to change

It's not a duplicate thread. I'm sorry, but you're incorrect.
Whoa, you quoted Smiter on distortion = change? I'm dissapointed. They're two different animals.
Distortion = Slighty twisting something from it's true self.
Change = Is to make something completely differential.

Distortion is different than change. That's why they're two different meanings and two different definitions. Distort is to slighty twist, change is an overhaul.Good for you.
Originally posted by Seraphim XIIImaybe = was a bit much, but they are equatable to having the same generic meaning. To distort something, you have to change it.
Any human being who knows anything about logic or has basic comprehension of the english language will tell you that Distort does not equal change. That's retarded.
And don't make assumptions about my intelligence or comprehension of the English language or I'll report you for bashing

Faulty logic. Any random can come out of nowhere and begin to go against an original thread. According to your logic, this makes any original thread that has been attacked or questioned unoriginal.
Nice.

No, you don't. To distort something, you have to distort it. Logically, it could be said that it doesn't needed to be changed because it's merely being twisted.
They're two different things. You need to get over it.
I didn't make an assumption. 🙂
Originally posted by Seraphim XIIIYou make a mistake in your 'logic' there. It's not about the person doing the questioning. It's the person being questioned. If you have to waste time and energy defending the originality of your thread, then it's not original

No, I didn't. You're directly appealing to ignorance here, A logical fallacy among them. By your logic, ANY THREAD THAT GETS ATTACKED, including those that are original, are simply unoriginal. Time and energy are exerted when a post is made, so that is where your logic kicks in. Any thread that gets attack or criticized is unoriginal, according to your logic. It's very simple. You should know this. Don't just debate semantics to defend yourself, it's ridiculous.

You have no evidence supporting that I directly insulted your intelligence. Based on a possible assumption you may be trying to destroy my thread, I'm going to ignore you for now.
Originally posted by Seraphim XIIINo, you are making a fatal mistake. Any thread can be attacked for being stupid, spam, or just a waste of time. That in and of itself is not unoriginal. A thread can be attack and still original. I'm not speaking of any thread just being attacked in general. I'm talking about threads having their originality questioned. And this is usually black and white. If you have to spend time and energy defending your threads originality, then it's not original.

Originally posted by Seraphim XIIILike I said in the beginning, I wasn't doing this to be mean to you. I didn't care at all that is was your thread. It's a duplicate thread.
