No matter the result, I think it would be a good idea to have the last posts pm'd to the moderator in future bz, or even the rest of them to be posted simultaneously [post 1 of a and post 2 of b etc.] That way one of the opponents can't post half his replies at the end with no chance for the other to respond.
I think the bz rules should be updated in that regard.
something could prolly be done but personally i've rarely had trouble just going back and forth. you need to be able to respond to your opponent's points, obviously but maybe the concluding posts could be sent and posted at the same time. but often people like being first and that usually means the other guy goes last to be fair, but...whatever is accepted by both is fine with me.
doesn't seem to matter here anyway. i don't think he's gonna make any more posts anyway. if he does, it's gonna be right under the wire. /shrug
Come on DS. Not like its 1 week late. There's been bz's here with 1, 2, or 3 week delays in post. This is not even 24 hrs yet.
I apologize since I was swamped at work. They piled my paperwork prior to my vacay.
And I had issues with posting. I had to revise 5-7 times to reduce even though I was well within post limit. Coulda made the date if not for this buggy site.
Thanks in advance. 😛
I was swapped at work too. I was writing all my posts at 2am, yet i distributed them fairly. I didn't send half of my post at the end and introduce new arguments in literally the last paragraph, posting it over the time limit by a dozen hours, knowing they won't be directly addresed. You knew the rules, yet couldn't edit your post in time, then act like nothing happened. I had the same problem, but i edited until it fit. Because i wasn't posting them on Saturday. It's bi tch moves all around.
That said, it's up to Darksaint, he's the moderator. I'm ok with any decision he takes, sincerily. I've luckily posted enough to directly address even that.
I can remedy that. Rebutt. It's fine by me. That's how u know this ain't a ***** move. A ***** move is trying to use generally accepted forum standards to completely undercut and basically attempt to delegitimize posts before it has even been posted.
You can post any time for all I care. I'm not even calling for a time limit.
In my case things came up that were out of my control.
