It's a triple negative. So it's means Ozy is faster.

IOW, you can't count. That explains a lot.

He thinks "never disagreed" counts as two. Except another way to phrase it is "always agreed". Yet the second part remains Ozy "wasn't faster". In other words, "other posters always agreed that Ozy wasn't faster".

And he claims to be a teacher. How on earth does this guy accurately grade papers and tests?

It’s a triple negative as Vault showed. This effectively makes the meaning, Ozy wasn’t faster. So I made a mistake in the post, but definitely can count (you can’t).

H1 actually thinks you're agreeing with him.

He’s agreeing that it was a triple negative (not a double negative as you said). This equals a single negative (Ozy isn’t faster).

So he agrees to it being a triple negative, nothing more.

Stop falling for Silent’s tricks. Be smarter than that.

No, he isn't agreeing that it's a triple negative.

Then you are an idiot. A triple negative is a single negative as he shown (Ozy isn’t faster).

So do you say it was a double negative? I hope you do.

I feel you man.

Even happy go lucky types like me can't help but wince at some of this stuff.

He wasn't agreeing with you about it being a triple negative. In fact, he actually said it was a double negative earlier.

You're making yourself look incredibly silly.

He never said it was a double negative (that would lead to a positive). He clearly pointed out that that the whole statement meant that Ozy isn't faster.

Either he's an idiot and came to the conclusion of a double negative leading to a single negative or you are falsely accusing him of something he didn't do. The reason why he doesn't answer is because he knows I'm right but don't want to defend me and go against you (you and him are allies against me).

Yup, that's a double-negative in his post. So, if we want to be technical about it, in a roundabout way, H1 just admitted that the Butcher is faster. 😄

You were saying?

Ha ha. Thank you for showing his sillyness and yours as well. You even said that it was a double negative.

"never disagreed" is a double negative.
"isn't faster" is a negative.

Triple negative all day.

You may need to go back to school and pay special attention to English class. That is a double negative.

Disagree means to not agree
Never disagreed means it didn't happen where someone disagreed.

Lol!!!

Despite your inability to grasp the English language, it's nice that you're finally agreeing with me and vault as to what your abortion of a sentence actually meant.
