Is it possible that chez is trapped in Hades and being forced to rehash this **** for eternity is his divine punishment for diddling puppies?

You are making pointless and needless argumentation about discussing this topic. So far your underly reason chez or anyone else should not discuss this seems to be that you don't want to discuss it. Seems fair to point out how much a waste over nothing you are making.

I'm biased in favour of him posting, I make no bones about that.

Not sure what else you mean by arguments in favour of him posting.

How do you think that prolonging this discussion helps Bruce post again?
This thread doesn't help - that's not it's intention is it? I mostly only come here to respond to stuff. Just like the ATF thread.

I prefer the idea that he is in purgatory and is tasked with getting some guy to post on a poker message board before he can eearn entry into jazz heaven.

I just wanted to be clear that there is bias in all of our positions, bias says nothing about whether an argument is correct or not only its motivation

It's a thread chez it doesn't have an intention, but if the thread isn't helping and you would like Bruce posting again surely it makes sense to drop it long enough to see whether it makes a difference.

You've managed to become your own parody congratulations, now I am putting you on ignore, should you choose to reply to me that is your prerogative.

Well I am just challenging your ideas and trying to figure out your motives in telling people to stop discussing something they want to talk about.

Wouldn't you be better off criticizing the people using uncommunicative argument devices rather than arguing that people shouldn't discuss this?

The more obvious problem is how some people are not even trying to communicate, but are still generating anti-social noise.

The thread was created with an intention and it continues because of that intention. They could drop it any time they wanted to but that's not up to me.

Obviously I don't agree that never responding is best but I don't bother with the trolls anymore as you must know.
05-05-2015 , 10:58 AM
You're trolling right now, so clearly you do still bother with the trolls
05-05-2015 , 10:59 AM
It's my opinion chez and the people who knew bruce have the stronger and better bias in this matter. Why? Their appeals goes along with the over-all implicit appeal that people deserve a new chance if they had made mistakes. That all makes the matter worth discussing in principle from my view. Whether, one chooses to discuss the matter or not.

Parallel argument. Making a disruptive, false accussation of trolling towards a polite and thoughtful discusser.

Lol, this is the same bull**** from the SMP thread. Chez deciding not to post about Bruce is the necessary and sufficient condition for chez stopping posting about Bruce, but other people have hijacked the decision making process of a grown ass man who purports to be an independent, logical, intellectual such that he cannot decide to stop posting about Bruce unless all the other people stop posting about Bruce.

You get confused easily.

I'll stop responding about Bruce if I think that's best. I don't think that's best.

Others can chose to bring it up or not - that's up to them.

I'm not sure if this is known outside of the SMP-brain-swamp... but the 'Fiasco' claimed another victim on team #cockroach last Sunday. It seems TomCowley decided to commit 'suicide by mod' in protest of BruceZ deciding all on his own not to post anymore... even though he is welcome to. The following was directed at Mat Sklansky...

You lying bitch.

And yeah, you (and Mason) decided to do nothing, a bunch of colored-name cretins started whining, and then you appeased them (did I mention bitch move?). Do you have an alternative explanation? You know, one where you weren't a bitch, gave 0 ****s what a bunch of irrelevant wankers were going on about, and changed your mind anyway? I'd love to hear it. But we both know I never will. Bitch.
The real question is... where does team #cockroach go from here... considering their delusional dreams have been, again, dashed ??

Those of you that don't read the Masque walls o' text are missing out.

Lets have Bruce back posting again so that among other creative things we can also disagree again in a civilized manner, like people who care for the discussion arriving at the truth and not for scoring individual victories. We can actually all benefit from such approach in how we interact with respect for the process.
Example of civilized manner:

Masque's post also contains a wonderful logical example of how Bruce might be needed to save someone's life by correcting a chemistry error someone is live streaming to 2+2...

How much success have you enjoyed in life where every single person tells you your course of action is wrong?

Wall de text's life saving hypothetical was amazing

Done okay thanks as have you I gather.

I'm considering adding the ziggy tactic of ignoring most of reality. I understand that works well too.
05-05-2015 , 11:51 AM
I feel like I trolled masque pretty successfully, although it's hard to tell since he spazzes out normally.

I think you've been on the reality ignorance program for quite some time.

your biased 'fair minded' tactic has been a master class.

lets continue this exciting ding-dong until someone manages to say it's just me - my would we laugh

Hahahaha, the commentary in the SMP thread prior to Mason's post is pretty amazing. I love the theory that Bruce was just a scapegoat who happened to be in the wrong place at the wrong time.

Chez,

The fact they don't want you to discuss this, while choosing to not discuss it, and still generating the argumentative, noisy, and uninformative behavior is a sign of the reality you have the better appeal. They really can't discuss it because it is rather embarrassing for them to have such weak and criticizable opinions on the matter.

Why they don't just choose to quit, stop, or retreat and rather choose to blame you for communicating is another tragic comedy befitting of the ongoing routine of errors.

Your opinion does require Bruce's posts be taken out of the setting and context of time they were made, and then diminished and reduced. Look at you scapegoating here in that post!
