Defend what? His unprofessionalism? His opinions where they don't matter? The example was clearly pointing out that what he said was completely unrelated to the topic and issue at hand, something that you can't seem to grasp.
If you felt the need to correct him on that point, please do it on your own time.
And if you have some sort of vendetta against me, please don't hesitate to bring it forth directly instead of muzzing up these threads.
1) " His opinions where they don't matter?"
For the record, right now you're expressing your opinion where it doesn't matter. Keeping the Administrators in line is Richard's job. There is, however, a difference between your opinion mattering and your right to voice your opinion.
2) "The example was clearly pointing out that what he said was completely unrelated to the topic and issue at hand, something that you can't seem to grasp."
As I've said, this is no different. If hes not allowed to post his opinion there, then kindly stop posting in this thread as you are going against what you're saying. You do, however, have just as much a right to voice your opinions, just like FireZ.
3) "If you felt the need to correct him on that point, please do it on your own time."
I did, right here in this very thread.
4) "And if you have some sort of vendetta against me, please don't hesitate to bring it forth directly instead of muzzing up these threads."
I have no vendetta against you, however it seems you have one against me. From the very day you saw that thread about me disabling my PMs for 2 minutes to prevent me having to infract a user, you've been searching for a reason to bitch at me ever since. I'm absolutely sick of it, and anyone who wonders why I'm so angry toward you should simply read what I've just said. The bottom line is, if you had simply asked me why I disabled my PMs or asked me to re-enable my PMs (which was already done by the time you posted), you would have gotten the full picture. Rather, you choose to complain about things when you don't have the full story, and that's most likely why you dislike so many people, and so many people dislike you.
I'm done with you Mage, if you choose to overcome this fued between us, you can PM me and we can sort it out. I'm not hard to get along with, but I'm not going to continue wasting my time any longer.
But that isn't the only places where he has this bad attitude, it is over the forum in general. Any time he posts it is generally not helpful, and while they are scammers, or hackers, or trolls you still have to approach it respectfully to show that you can handle situations without devolving into negative remarks and just bad mouthing.
I personally will never show respect for a scammer/hacker/etc unless I personally forgive them. In turn, I will not bow down to them and treat them with respect, but rather I will treat them how they treat others.
