Hey, JJ, while you're reprimanding TD for smart-assing, did you know you are smart-assing?
Isn't that neat?

Silly me: I thought the VW would be quality-free zone, so that you can post that kind of stuff WITHOUT getting a -qp.

I wouldn't usually make a fuss for this kind of stuff, but I think that Death has such a -qp long coming. Let me add EXPLICITELY, that our discussion in the religion thread has nothing to do with it. It's assuming of me to suggest I could be the judge of it, but just for the record, while I don't agree with the opinion in that posts, those posts are ok in every way.

I don't think it's neat, but it's not so wrong either.

normal behavious. doesn't mean it is good.
people usually answer to anger by anger, to attacks by attacks, to arrogance by arrogance, to jealousy by jealousy, etc...
and they are also usually master at blaming others for what they are themselves and give advices they will never follow themselves.

seriously, if we would judge quality and relevance, I guess most posts would deserve a -QP
that is objective btw, look at people in every day life, how often do they say something that's really useful and relevant?

Interesting.
People get a nobel prize (in relation with a good amount of money) for doing outstanding things, now other people who do nothing outstanding will have to pay the same amount as punishment.
Only because someone hasn't had any sexual experiences (except maybe with himself) as of yet, doesn't disqualify him/her from talking about it and have an opinion.
Just look around how many people talk about football...

Well. I'm not trying to defend my point anymore - it's obvious I'm pretty alone here. But still, angelito, that post of yours is just a bit too strange:
I'm not going to waste time with any remarks concerning the comparison of +qps with the nobel prize and DEath's posts with "doing nothing outstanding", but this is great:

Yeah, right. I remember, there was a great TV show not that long ago where they reviewed all NASA space flights and featured interviews with all the astronauts. One of them - it might have been Collins from Apollo 11, talked about how spiritual the experience was. Flying out there, KNOWING we were not alone and so on. How he got HIGH on it. Now someone like Death comes and says, hey, if it's all about getting high why not trip right away with some acid: it would have been a lot cheaper at that.

Second, it's ignorant: I don't think Death has any relevant experience either with sex or with drugs or with losing himself except in meaningless posts.
Alright, you have a point there and I do agree with you. Nothing more annoying than someone who goes into a 'What is love' thread and not know what they're talking about, or talking about Sex when they've never had it or talking about a sport when they've never played it or speaking bad of concerts when they've never been to one (all things which Thedeath has done, except perhaps the sport thing). That is quite annoying for those of us who actually know what we're talking about. He should stop that but it's still not worth a penalty.

Don't you see it's always the same people accusing me of stuff, into my lifestyle and what not, are the ones to avoid questions, perfectly sound and logical.
If you feel offended by it, I couldn't care less in this context since there is nothing offensive inherent in it -- just because you probably hate drugs or affiliation to it, doesn't make the question even personally provoking at the very least. Because if we were to follow your pissy arguments for this one, then ANYONE who would be associated by anyone else with something, would be able to do this.
Example: a drug addict who gets associated with a heavy alcoholic may also get pissed, if he is incapable of reason. Does that mean if the alcoholic asks, what is so much better about drugs than alcohol, that it was a bad argument? It's a perfectly correct question, reasonable, and deserves a response -- the fact that you (or the drug addict, in this example -- nothing to do with drug/you relation analogy btw) go to the length of even suggesting it's somehow wrong (not just ignoring it) means you are terribly pissy about it and want to avoid it at all costs. Maybe you have no arguments, I don't know. I do know though, that you want to avoid it -- I suspect it's because it touches something that you just are "too much into", you know, like something you hold too dear. (most people do those for reasons). A drug addict that has no intention to stop and is capable of reason (for instance) WILL protect his usage with all arguments possible -- sometimes even health-related. He will TRY to find any good-health-usage for drugs when others point health risks and HOPES he finds any. Just like a video game addict, such as World of Warcraft. Mention him reasonable arguments against and he WILL try to counter them even if he knows they are not much valid, he HOPES to find them (after all, WoW is his life) -- if he can't, he's either ignoring them or going pissy about it, like what you do.
And william, please shut the hell up for things you have no clue about, including my life. I don't CARE what you think of MY life, this is not "TheDeath'sLife.com", so focus ON MY GOD DAMN POSTS.
Most of your so-called "experiences", for instance... you can't "post" them on a forum. I couldn't care less what you say have "experienced", since you don't post them here, all that matters is the posts themselves. In fact, most times I haven't even said IF I had a certain experience with something or not -- it was only your stupid assumption that I hadn't. I didn't mention it precisely because of this reason, the fact that you can't control yourself and a reasonable argument. Fact is, for any reasonable person it should make no difference whatsoever.
And no, I'm not going to feed you information about my life -- if you are not mature enough to hold a logical conversation WITHOUT getting into personal details if it does not add anything to the discussion (it's not a thread about TheDeath's life, you know), then DO NOT MAKE ASSUMPTIONS about me, is it so god damn hard? Just think someone ANONYMOUSLY, someone you don't know, posted that perfectly valid question.
Here's an example of your childish, stupid "experience" argument: I can make a new anonymous account (with mod's permission), have the same opinions as TheDeath BUT do claim that I had experience with EVERYTHING instead of keeping quiet about the personal life. Does that suddenly make that anonymous account's arguments more valid? Can you even verify it? Just drop this non-sense attitude already.
If anyone deserves a penalty here it should be JJ for personal provocation AND taking into account attacks on members when the topic was nothing related to TheDeath's personal life.
You see JJ, or william, or w/e, I couldn't care less, in a topic not regarding your personal lives, WHO you are. If the forum DID NOT display the name/avatar of the poster, it would be fine by me.
So grow up.

TheDeath, I was defending you. Last time I waste my time doing that stuff.
And if you look, I never once really made an attack on you. I defended you from getting a penalty and I was merely making an example for something. I never once made an attack on you or anything. I really do expect an apology because I did nothing wrong.

I wasn't talking about you as a whole, but about the "having no experience". It was NOT the same thing I was talking to JJ about.
Here's an example to understand better what I was talking to YOU about:
Jesus comes, says "of course Heaven exists, you haven't experienced it though so you can't have an opinion about it", then goes away. What is a reasonable person supposed to make of this? If we went by your logic, science would have never taken off the ground at all.
See?

That's all there is to it. The fact that he even avoided this simple question raises concern about his stable arguments for it.
If you ask a nonsense question and no one bothers to answer you "won". If people answer the thread goes into trivialities about nonsense. It's theoretical and it isn't helping with the real questions people are asking like MightyMage's situation with his ex-girlfriend or my question.
In short it is troll-like behavior. I don't think qp's come into it it is just a plea for more considerate posting.

Sure, saying that sex makes you lose yourself has very MUCH to do with MightyMage's ex-girlfriend as well... or just about the whole freaking page where that post was located (to which I replied).
Somehow, you didn't make a fuss out of that. I wonder why? (not really, I'm sarcastic)
