For the record what I said was that I thought his ignorance of British politics was leading him to say things that sounded stupid because he didn't know how stupid they sounded. I know it's not your country so you don't know how stupid you sound when you imply otherwise but you sound pretty fucking stupid. I didn't ban him but if we're going to discuss who said what then we should at least get it right. I said his lack of understanding of the subject was understandable because it's British politics and he's an American but when he made proclamation about the subject based on that lack of understanding he sounded pretty fucking stupid. Maybe you think that's too far, whatever. But I said his ignorance made him sound stupid, I didn't say he was stupid. | ||

Also, there's a difference between telling someone he "sounds/acts like a twat" and that "he is a twat"... everyone acts twatty sometimes, but calling someone a twat removes that temporary aspect and just leaves you with a personal insult. for comparison: "you're being an overgrown twat right now." "you're an overgrown twat." There's a vast difference. The first one can be seen as (albeit not very constructive) criticism, because it implies that if the addressee changes their current behaviour, it will result in a reduction of their twat-factor. The 2nd however does not imply that. :D | ||

Also a great example of why i dont want to be a part of this shoddily run website anymore. Can i have my perm ban now please? Ive asked like 4 fucking times. EDIT: Since it seems all my PMs go unanswered when i ask for something politely before i actually get it. p.s. while im at it shoutouts to KBB and plexa, they're actually pretty cool. ETT can go fuck himself since he blatantly had it out for me when i was still active here and a massive thank you to that mod who went on a rampage in the lol subforum calling out everyones shit and got demodded / banned, what a legend. If i finally get listened to & banned, Good bye! User was banned for this post. | ||
