Arrogant I might seem, but its posts which try to interpret rules as they shouldn't be that annoys me.
You might have to reconsider that not only your opinion counts regarding how things should or should not be.
On most of my posts I post fairly toned down answers. I do not try to deliberately annoy people, its not my fault if people disagree with what I say.
Disagreement is not a problem. The problem is how the disagreement is put into words.
If im wrong ill admit it, id apologize, but if there is no actual proof of a rules ironclad existence, or people are trying to make something out of nothing, then sure ill argue that it doesn't matter.
I don't think I read anything from you admitting you were wrong about the shield stuff in the other thread.
Also, I excersise my right to freedom of speach. As long as im not derogatory towards people and only expressing opinions on gaming rules I cant see that as being Arrogant. You might do, but thats not my problem.
Yeah, you do have your right of free speech (actually, as this is a private server owned by someone you don't get the complete deal, but it does not matter for the purpose of this discussion). I'd like to point out though, that I did not try to forbid you anything. I did point out to you which impression you make on me (and I somehow doubt I'm the only person alive to have it) and that it might offer certain longterm benefits to avoid giving that impression to people.
(On a more personal sidenote, in my internet experience, people who feel the need to explicitely invoke their right of free speech out of the blue to justify their behaviour often have ... let's call it "some issues".)
Also generally I wont post to say "yes thats right". Ill only post if I feel I have something to add, rightly or wrongly to a topic. So its entirely possible that what I say is wrong, but if people can/do prove im wrong then fair enough.
Yeah, fair enough. However, what I'm trying to tell you here is that not only facts matter, but also how they are presented and argued. There is a rather big difference between "for this and this reason I do believe it should be done like; also, have a look at these rules over there" and "it's like that. everything else is stupid."
To all others: Sorry. I ended my lurker existence just to post a small response and now it looks like I'm here to pick a fight with Crimson...
