I'm resisting the urge to flame him. I'm being (for a given value of) good.

That would be impossible, can you imagine it happening? [:)]

I think this might get your message across better... yes?

Probably. There's just so many great Failure motivationals on the net that not using them would be criminal. Also, I love Smash Bros. series.
Anyway, I hope you got the point.

So? People use "I" when they refer to themselves in english language, as swedish use "jag" and as finnish use "minä".
You sure are funny guy Kayoz. [:)]

You always use "we" - "We approve", for example. It seemed uncharacteristic.

No no no - if you read J GH T's posts, he always uses "we" - I suppose it's a Star Trekky Borg thing. First time I've seen him use "I".

It's kinda a inside joke, Kayoz. Refers to hive-minds, group-minds, conjoiners and other similar societys in SciFi.
Examples: the Geth in Mass Effect, the Advent in Sins and hive-minds in DW. I find the concept both fascinating and scary. But still mostly fascinating.
Also, always means 100% all the time, and I clearly don't use "we" always. Pay attentation.

J's right, I also noticed him using we in particular situations and not all the time....just as he uses aye in particular situations and not all the time.
But this is just a tactic to divert the subject, distract attention....and I'm not referring to J
In the end Webbco is right, this is a pointless pattern - attacking and diverting; nothing but hollow rhetoric

Aye!
And apologies from my part for continuing this kinda pointless conversation. We shall punish ourselves by abstaining from playing DW for a day.
Will not (probably) happen again.

Divert? I noticed a deviation in J's referrals to himself - I thought it was amusing that he always used "we" - and this was the first instance I've noticed that he's used, "I". Are you suggesting I should start a new thread to query it?

I'm finished here, do whatever pleases you...and doesn't affect others in a negative way.
I'll have to abstain two days now....but someone has to defeat the dominators anyway [:)]

Considering that you don't know the difference between a program and an operating system, you can probably figure out how dearly I hold your opinion.

Kid, I've kicked about everything you've thrown into this thread, out of the park. I've shown almost every statement you've made to be false, misleading or completely senseless. And in the end, you've admitted that you're wrong. And now you're back for more. Why are you continuing this masochistic behaviour?

Perhaps Data disagrees with my methods and thinks I'm not being terribly "nice" in my dealings with you - but then again my objective isn't to be "nice". If you could come up with something that was insightful or new, then you'd probably find me more pleasant - but for some unknown reason, you insist on debating an issue which you know little or nothing about. Maybe he feels sorry for you - but I don't. I haven't put a gun to your head and forced you to write - any entry here is entirely your choice.

So choose what you want to do now.
