Which to be honest, we all are to some degree.
Except you have a whole thread, so it just looks like you made a thread for people to agree with you.
Tl;dr: generally, stay out of your own threads, unless you're trying to bump them.
i see it differently. as an OP i created a thread. a discussion in the thread began so i am not trying to enforce my opinions on anyone. but i am pointing my points and simply continuing the conversation. the thing with abhi is that it is no longer a conversation but a joke. however, i do feel that an OP has to be the live spirit of the read. not for ego stroking but because its just natural to take part in what you created

Whereas I see that it's unnatural to take part in what you've created.
If abhi and prof and Gaylan come in, and make some points....and no one else challenges them, then if you came in and challenged them once,fine.
But no one else is backing you up or really arguing for Majestic. Only you.
And it just looks like you have an agenda now.

so basically you are saying that me discussing and trying to explain my point and belief is agenda? if that so arent we all have agendas? i mean now you are saying that the OP should be passive and leave things to be for others. i see it differently. also, why do you believe someone who is not backed up while others are, should stop posting and swallow his mind and opinion? this is exactly whats wrong with the new politically correct era. people are trying to shut down different opinions. if we as a society go by that rule, we might as well go back to stone age. thruought the entire history, society and civilization progressed because someone challenged everybody and made a change.
Because it's a thread you created, on an open debate forum.....where no one else is openly debating.
It devolves, as you can well see, into the exchange you and abhi have. You two have exhausted all of your arguments against each other, and it just becomes name calling.
That's not the same as shutting down different opinions. You have said your piece, and others said their piece - the S1M camp even knew exactly what your stance was going to be on the first page (whatever it was).
Not saying you're right,or Gaylan was right (although obv I had my viewpoint).
But it's now page 6. Is it a debate, when it's just the thread creator telling others na uh, you shut up, no you etc etc?
