Thank you Ant.

The argument is that ulic as a near equal of kun would beat vitiate, its not dependent on the quote

Deronn_solo
Anyone with a brain knew this already, lmao.

No clarification was needed.

Fair enough, I'll concede on it referring to all of history.

Ulic is still > Vitiate though

Dude, you should have asked him about Vitiate.

I'm genuinely embarrassed for even asking this question.

Wow, what a shocker a quote doesn't apply to a character that didn't exist yet, lmfao.

I fully accept your concession, Az. thumb up

;up: thumb up

@Azronger

Your end is near.

DarthAnt66
Also, I'm not sure why the author's response wouldn't apply to other sources also.

I mean, it's just ****ing obvious, but him confirming what I've been saying sure does feel good.

NewGuy01
Well, because he's not an authority on canon, for one.

Geistalt
He's an authority on what he wrote.

He is a contributor to the lore and has the authority to decide which aspects of his works are valid and which are no longer valid.

I am sorry but I have reiterated (time and again) that it is not wise to pick a revelation in a material from the past and impose it on newly established ground realities that appear to challenge it.

Exar Kun was the leader and most powerful member of his Empire. Ulic Qel-Droma was second to him in the same Empire. Vitiate and his Empire are excluded from evaluation because they were a hidden threat at that point in time.

Not only this author but the author of FACT FILES also stated that revelations in them are valid for established realities of that time.

Thank you @DarthAnt66

I don't care for authorial intent.

Boom.

Your case fell apart.

Good Lord, could Ant's questions be any more biased? laughing out loud

That is not intent; the author has rejected your point of view regarding this matter actually.

Benefit of this disclosure is that nobody will take your bullshit seriously on any platform after this revelation is circulated.

When you can't sell your bullshit, your effort is in vain. Your loss; our gain thumb up

That's... not even an argument.

And lmfao @ "case," implying it's up for debate.

Here's an L:

Uh, you must have missed the part where Ant said this should apply to other sources as well.

Pretty sure that doesn't fall under the author clarifying his personal work, dumbbell.

DarthAnt66
*grumbling under breath* it still should count for other sources

The_Tempest
Anyone who has a problem with the nature of Ant's question or the answer it yields should just learn to ask similarly loaded questions. It's not hard, folks.

Deronn_solo
What do you think about all this, Temp?

It's not, and I never sold it as such. I simply said I don't care for authorial intent, and that's that.

He has, and is that supposed to actually mean something? Because as far as I know, that's just him stating his take on continuity, which is not an objective one, but just his opinion. Which is why it's perfectly within my power to not give a crap.

I like Azr, but I think the preponderence of evidence made it clear that Vitiate > Ulic.

Well, I'd be interested to hear what evidence you are referring to (assuming it is something other than what has been presented in this thread), but another user has already pledged to take me down, so maybe next time.

So, let's get this straight for the record.

We all read this one source.

Everyone read it and interpreted it one way. You, alone, interpreted it a different way.

I stated I would contact the author and you agreed, saying that we'll finish this once and for all.

I get a quote saying it was era specific, and you agreed to it, saying Vitiate still applies.

I get a second quote saying it didn't apply to Vitiate, with the author clarifying the scope of his own work, but now you dismiss it under author intent.

... despite already accepting the author's first statement and encouraging me to contact the author.

This is the most blatant display of bias I've seen on this forum since 2015.

Nobody cares.



I withdrew my concession and provided reasons as to why. You're just having a mental breakdown at the fact that someone could offer a valid alternative interpretation of the quote, and that your beloved Vitiate sucks smile

Expose this member on comicvine as well, in the relevant thread where he attempted to promote his BS.
