Read your post, read RS post, read Freeman's post. Notice the antagonist persona brought on.Originally Posted by BlackMetalNinja
Here Ill provide you with examples;
Why say that line? You gain nothing from it but just reinforce the notion you are attempting to dispel. You don't on one like say this isnt a popularity contest on the next say but our guy is very popular. Do you not see the double speak there?Originally Posted by BMN
Again why the stab at the end it just comes off as totally pompous and arrogant. That's a very eltist statement even though I know RS is not like that and I dont think his intent was that either. However I also read RS's posts every day and since he's a fellow mod I think I have a decent handle for his sincerity but that doesnt mean the majority of posters have any idea.Originally Posted by RS
Lastly...
The VP himself saying its a popularity contest when the threads point is to dispel the idea that it is such?Originally Posted by Freeman
I mean these are basic mannerism or speech patterns that I can point out in multiple threads, which is why I told Devin, NBF, and L.A. Playa that we didnt need to take the angle of this being a popularity contest it would be done for us.
