when you’re polite and respectful, and willing to work differences out you get that short answer that you proposed.
when you’re clearly being rude, you get the long answer… ok
and you get more of a cold shoulder from me
Now like i said
I’m still willing to work this out
but i’m waiting for you to change your attitude
and IF YOU’LL NOTICE, i’m trying to keep these posts short, although , i’m not really sure why i’m even putting in the effort since you are continuing to be this way.
so what do you reckon… can you give it a rest ?
and also, if i had said this to you
i would consider the “be cool” part to be a little on the rude side.
i personally may have just said, sorry for the misunderstanding
but… that’s me
so, you reckon you can meet me half way here or what ?
Nobody posting in a forum should have to meet anyone half-way, or any other proportion of the way, to anywhere.
7 or 8 of us have the same problems with your posts, Martin, and we say so regularly.
The only realistic way to resolve this issue is for you to change your posting-style. Which, according to some of your recent posts, you’ve expressed yourself as being willing to do, and I welcome that and thank you for it.
[EDIT : THIS ENTIRE POST HAD BEEN INTENTIONALLY DELETED BY ME (Martin K).
there was some confusion in the post,
and at the Request of @Falstaff , who brought the error to my attention,
I have agreed to remove the post in the hope that this will fix whatever the issue is.
i apologize for any inconvenience caused
and whatever was caused was not intentional or malicious on my part.
@Falstaff
and another thing though
he also said this…
followed by …
so… tell me IN YOUR OPINION
how do you interpret this
I INTERPRET IT AS
he is not willing to change
he doesn’t care
he just wants me to change
now… understand
I’m not being arrogant or stubborn
but i’m sensing a lot of rudeness here and non co-operation
tha’ts the way i interpret it
based on this…
so… his morals and his levels of belief of what is right and wrong tells him that Negotiation, Co-Operation and Give and Take are not options nor is compromise
and that no one on this forum should have to do any of the above
in my opinion if a person holds that belief , you can’t get anywhere and there will always be argument because a sense of negotiation or compromise does not exist.
and therefore only selfishness is present.
that’s how i see it
@Falstaff
ok, no problem
what was that thing that i said that you believe you did not say
can you put a screenshot of it up and i’ll do my best to explain it
i do realize you referenced Post 69, however i can’t see numbers on posts, i don’t know how to find them like that.
i usually rely on people to copy Quotes in
so get that to me and i’ll explain whatever i said… ok
no problem
what ???
where is the reference ?
i don’t understand
and is this supposed to be sarcasm ??
mate, i can’t see numbers ok
i really have no idea where Post 69 is ok
i didn’t DENY i SAID… i can’t see them
there’s a difference
you make it sound like i’m lying.
so where is the screen of what you said you did not say
and of what i mistquoted you as saying
and ill explain it
@Falstaff
ok mate… Relax… we are working on it… ok
i interpret this
as you being pissed off… ok
clearly THIS IS A MISTAKE SOMEHOW… RELAX … IT’LL BE FIXED OK
clearly it was done in error
and i still don’t know why your avatar is there, but maybe that’s what contributed to the error , maybe it’s something that the script on this site does
but irrespective IT’S AN HONEST MISTAKE… ok
so… relax and give me a bit to look through the entire post… ok
ok mate, I’ve just spent all that time looking through EVERY SINGLE POST ok
and trying to weed out ANYTHING that i may have misquoted you on
I think i got it all
have a look and tell me what you think
are you happy with the edit ?
let me know
also i think an explanation is in order
after reading all this
i can see what happened
i got caught up in talking to you and charlie and at one point the posts (sort of blended into one) if you know what i mean.
point is… it was not malicious or intentional
it was simply done in error
i have apologized for my error
I hope this makes it cool
