Re: Alien's abusive behavior
No, he didn't "own3d" us. He posted an opinion so hyperbolic and illogical that I've given up on refuting it.
"Illogical" coming from you means nothing. It's rather ironic, since you were stupid enough to call this "level-headed" on a public thread:
NokX would die a happy man knowing that the guy blowing his dysfunctional brains out was doing the right thing by taking out the threat that is NokX. And the world would be a better place, rid of human garbage like him.
If you've "given up on rufuting" then why are you still replying? If you thought there was no point in convincing members that agree with me, why are you still attempting to do that?
You were exposed for the brainless clod that you truly are, so instead of replying, you chose to insult me. I'm fine with that, it just destroys your credibility even more.
Let's leave the readers with one of your lasting quotes:
Unless we knew that the poster was a very level-headed and reliable gent who got testy
(that poster wrote):
"really,t ruly hope some copper someday will mistake you for a terrist and blow your smurfing head off."
Thanks for playing, better luck next time, salope.

And that, from you, means nothing to me.
Call me all the names you want, I still think Joost is a level-headed gent. Even Jesus got angry once in a while, and he was as level-headed as they come.
If you've "given up on rufuting" then why are you still replying?
I guess I'm the "last word" type. Who knew?

WOW! You didn't tripple-post! You must be feeling better... 
Did you know that show only lasted two seasons? Mind you, back then they did 32 episodes a year, not the "exhausting" 13 episodes today's TV stars have to suffer through.

Re: Alien's abusive behavior

Really? I'm the one being rude? Let's take a little review of what Reefdog said before my post.
Reefdog posted in reply to christian3807, who quoted my post and wrote in agreement:
Just own3d all of yall:lol:
Now, let's take a look at what Reefdog wrote that you conveniently ignored. Keep in mind, it was prior to my 'rude' post that you quoted.
No, he didn't "own3d" us. He posted an opinion so hyperbolic and illogical that I've given up on refuting it. -- I like how he insulted me first here just because someone agreed with me. The insults are in bold, unless you overlook them again. Reefdog's way of retaliation in losing an argument.
Anyone who thinks he has a strong point won't be convinced by my continued rebuttal, so I'm just leaving it. -- Oh really? You consider insulting me in retaliation "just leaving it"?
Oh, and Joost won't get punished. Don't that just grind yer giblets? -- Reefdog's nice attempt at getting a negative reaction, too bad it didn't work.
So Benighted, since you...for some odd reason, happened to pass-over Reefdog's little 'rude' retaliation, I just thought I'd repost it for you. Like yourself, I don't appreciate "rudeness", so I figured you'd appreciate me pointing out what you just so happened to overlook.

Reef was critical of the argument you presented, he wasn't abusing you personally. Lets look at what you said in retaliation, presented in the same way you chose to present reef's post to me:

Re: Alien's abusive behavior

I like how you left out what Reefdog called "level-headed."
For those who forgot:
NokX would die a happy man knowing that the guy blowing his dysfunctional brains out was doing the right thing by taking out the threat that is NokX. And the world would be a better place, rid of human garbage like him.
I didn't conveniently omit large parts of Reefdog's post in my 'presentation.' Someone who's name starts with a B and ends with a D did.
Reef was critical of the argument you presented, he wasn't abusing you personally.
I had a feeling you'd use that as an excuse.
He called my argument " hyperbolic and illogical" when it clearly wasn't. He was obviously offended because he had no rebuttal. He was threatened when members were telling him that he had no rebuttal, therefore, he resorted to a post with nothing but insults.
Deny it all you want. Defend him all you want. Make all the excuses you can. Edit the post. Delete the post. You still know what truly happened.
"He posted an opinion so hyperbolic and illogical"
Good post. Lots of thought, lots of facts to back it up. Keep up the great 'level-headed' posts, Reefer.

I omitted it for brevity's sake. Feel free to view it as if the post is still there in its entirey, as my point is that your outburst is not justified given the circumstances.

That's because it's the truth.

The only thing that can vaguely be construed as in insult in reef's post is his calling your opinion hyperbolic and illogical. He's free to do that within forum rules.
Deny it all you want. Defend him all you want. Make all the excuses you can. Edit the post. Delete the post. You still know what truly happened.
I'm neither denying nor editing anything.
"He posted an opinion so hyperbolic and illogical"

Nope, no facts to back it up. Purely reef's opinion.

You were abusing him personally.

The poster posted the post.
That's why he's "the poster." Apparently, "the poster" wanted someone fatally harmed in his "post."
You were abusing him personally.
Naa, I was critical of the argument he presented, I wasn't abusing him personally.
Hey, if that excuse is acceptable for RuffDog, then it works for me too.
We're all just 'regular members' remember? Whatever 'illogical and hyperbolic' excuses you use for ReefDig, applies to me too.

Is every post completely representative of a poster? Let me quote what reef actually said:

Which does quite the opposite of implying that the post in question was level-headed.
You were abusing him personally.
