Lol! Nothing here belongs to me. I've been around doing this from the beginning. All I do is pass along what I gather. It "belongs" to the kind people who agree to take time from their busy schedules to answer questions. I take no claim or credit - never have and never will. The minute one "creates" here, the minute they need to stop and walk away. Again - I am NOTHING but a conduit.
The attacks offended a genuine PLAYER in the game. You gents offended him with genuinly stupid positions. When you dance with the devil, don't gripe about getting scorched...
And as said conduit? Yeah - I'm gonna report it. It is direct support for other opinions.
Can y'all step far enough back to "get it" ie what not just I but others are saying? Here and on my "informative" post wher you two dive down your respective rabbit holes? You both derailed a post of clear authoritive information with insane ramblings and claims.
And YJ - your entire attack (and it is an attack) based on this claimed ability is gonna draw fire. Don't whine when one of said real players laughs at your ridiculous claims of superhuman ability...
I think it is more important to protect the public from palm readers than to protect the palm readers... That is why this site was started...
So can you clarify what the "attacks" were? I've written stuff for peer-reviewed articles while teaching at a uni and nothing I've written here is out of line with a loose form of academic argumentitive style. I set up a hypothesis, and state evidence. I can't see why Neil Cooper would care less, much less be offended. And there's no need for YOU to get upset about it. I laid out at the end of my big Part 2 thread any criticism is all good and all in the fun of analysis. Why were my posts so threatening?
Any highlighting of an "I" position is actually reinforcing that it's my (subjective) position. If I were imposing myself as a voice-of-God, I'd write entirely differently, believe me! Taught those academic writing subjects for 5 years.
I wasn't whining. What I was actually saying "Well this doesn't make sense - and here's why." and at another point "I think this is a case where we can all be right". Hardly words of revolution.
And as with past arguments, you never answer the difficult questions posed - just cover them with bluster. Disappointing, but that's fine.
But are you seriously saying that observations and attempts to make sense out of this and that of the deatil of Indy's gear don't have a place on this site? REALLY? Isn't that what half the readership engages in? Trying to figure this stuff out?
If you actually go back, you will even see I HONORED your request to bow out of your earlier thread.
At this point I'm not even sure what you're upset about, to be honest... If you want to protect the public, great. Prove me wrong with evidence that isn't contradictory. That's all I'm asking you to do. If you don't want to or can't, I don't see what else there is to say.
