Big grin Proper etiquette...

Noli nothis permittere te terere
----is not the same as----
Noli nothis, such as Twonky, permittere te terere,
...unless, perchance, it is!

Does anyone know how to say "whiney-butt" in latin? Or maybe in sanskrit...???

Re: Proper etiquette...

I speak just English. I wish you and twonky would do the same.

So what 'bastards' were you referring to?

Re: Proper etiquette...

I just want to say that I may be a lot of things, but I am not a liar. You can sit here and call me a baby killer, or say I'm "for abortion", and all liberals uneducated or whatever, but it was absolutely ignorant to call someone a liar just because you cannot find what they are referring to, and then go about stating your FALSE idea and calling it "fact". Not to mention ASKING A QUESTION and then closing the thread after you ask it, making it impossible to answer it. It seriously makes me want to leave DoD alltogether. And I suppose I can go right ahead and post all my freebies and answers to points and rewards programs elsewhere. And I can think of plenty of english words to call people, but I don't think I was the one changing the topic of a thread from one it actually was, into a thread where you make up false accusations about someone in order to make them look foolish. And don't even begin to pretend that you didn't make the statement "that is what this thread is about now." So, what the thread eventually became "about" was you making up a lie about me. Right? Thank you. I didn't lie. The end.

I cannot find? You're the one that claimed it was there and now mysteriously gone. I was simply asking you to provide the information you CLAIMED to have found.

It's open now. I have no problem continuing the discussion with you. I figured it was you locking the thread before me anyways so I thought you'd appreciate it.

Ok.

They'll make it here one way or the other I'm sure.

Ho hum. You're the one that said you verified all that information on the DoD website. You're the one that said you did it a month ago yet the first statistic you listed wasn't available at that time. Believe me, I'm not trying to make anyone look foolish.

What lie did I 'make up' about you? All I've done is ask you to prove what you were saying. How is that making up a lie about you?

Quote:
Right?
Wrong.

Quote:
Thank you.
Uh. You're welcome?

Quote:

What is a lie? Isn't that when someone says something that isn't true?

Tell me this then.

The first statistic you showed is dated June 16th, 2004. You claimed you verified all this information 'a month ago.'

How could you have verified a statistic that wasn't even available?

Apparently you did not read a damn thing I said, because I said, very clearly in fact, that the link I supplied you with WAS AN UPDATED VERSION OF THE ONE I GOT LAST MONTH. I am sorry if you do not read paragraphs thoroughly.

But thanks then, since you, miss/mister moderator told me to leave, I will gladly post the answers to points program questions on a forum where the moderators don't make up their versions of the truth, and call people bastards in the process.

I'll see you in ****. As you will not see me reply to whatever name calling you want to do next.

Re: Proper etiquette...

I have been following this thread with interest and have watched people get caught up in minutiae. In other words, what is more important here, where auryn got her stats, or what was her point in posting those stats in the first place?

I'd rather not speak for her, but I'd be willing to bet that her disdain for this war in Iraq doubtless motivated her to post those stats. Isn't this where the focus should be? She, like many, do not approve of this war.

There is a pertinent point to be made to all who don't approve of this war. What is the solution to the pernicious mission that Islamic extremists have embarked upon to destroy the West? I would imagine that the answer to this question is probably far more elusive than that which may be found in some obscure documents held by the DOD (Dept. of Defense) that some in here are apparently so anxious to get their hands on.

Oh I read it all right. I've read everything. I double checked it too. You sure did say that didn't you. Convenient.

Quote:

Well here's a lie. Where did I TELL you to leave? You simply said you were leaving and said 'OK.' Hardly a command.

Quote:

Talk about reading comprehension. Where did I call anyone a bastard? That was CT. I bet you double checked that as well.

Quote:

Name calling? I've yet to call anyone anything. But I don't have a problem letting this drop. Save face for those involved.

Out of chaos (actually, I'm more of an anarchist, but nevermind that now) comes order. Thanks 'Cat!

I don't know. How about answering both questions?

Re: Proper etiquette...

"Empty your cup", then ask the question..., Grasshoppa.

(Seriously, every warped answer so far has made perfect sense. It would take me about an hour to explain to one who has yet to snatch the pebble from my hand or walk across the rice paper without ripping it to shreds, but it's doable. But instead of asking the questions in search of elusive answers, you've been doing it to furthur obscure the obvious ones. Almost as deliberately as me misspell of "further". You were doing the same thing with Auryn, btw, which is what got me started with the zhen shtick in the first place. Thank you.)
