Ideal Job

I can see why you get under the skin of so many posters with your inability to answer a simple question with having to rub in how much you think you know and how little they do. I consistently defended you, maybe I shouldn't have bothered.

Here's a hint for you sweetheart, when someone tells you they know f-all about something and asks a question which you can easily understand, getting all sarky because their question shows a lack of understanding is just childish; that's WHY they're asking questions in the first place. Either answer the question with grace, or don't bother at all.

I dunno maybe you are just trying to get some street cred by picking on someone, but attacking someone who has supported you out of the blue is pretty pathetic. Makes you as bad as the ones you ganged up on you really.

I think the "what a cow" message that you left for me in my rep panel said the above more succinctly, and revealed rather more about your true character than the rant above.

I thought perhaps you'd retract your sarky attitude at being asked a genuine question if I made it clear it was a question not some elaborate plot to attack you.

But it seems unlikely since you have spent several more paragraphs repeating yourself and making up claims I've made. I didn't claim anything. I asked you a question and then I asked you a follow-up question. The fact my question[s] betrayed my lack of understanding is hardly something I'm embarrassed about since I told you I didn't understand it in the first place. So trying to point this out and score points on it is pretty silly.

Not every poster on CUK is out to get you. Your quip about "I see why other posters don't like you" is ludicrous because the people who have a go at me are the same ones you accuse of ganging up on you.

So you can admit you over-reacted and show you're reasonable, or continue to drag out a stupid non-argument and demonstrate having the last word is of more importance, and alienate one of those who stood up for you.

Your call.

+1 to that.

Why can't we all just get along ? Group hug anyone ?

Christ, you really do just make it up as you go along, don't you doogie? Have you read anything I actually wrote since this thread started? It doesn't seem that you have, because once again the highlighted text above isn't what I said. What I actually did say, and I quote, was:

No offence, but you do have an unhappy knack of missing the point and asking daft questions sometimes, doogie. I can see why it frustrates people.

There's an important difference between your inaccurate recollection and what I actually did say. My comment was about your behaviour, your misquote is instead merely an ad hominem. i.e., what I actually did say focuses on your frequent tendency to miss the point and dwell on non-issues, which other people (myself included) find frustrating. Your distorted recollection is instead merely about people "not liking you", with no reason given.

Discussing a topic with you is like talking to someone with dementia or Aspergers. In this entire thread you've consistently missed the point, become abusive off-line in areas like the rep system based on your misperceptions, and reacted inappropriately to what you believed had been said rather than what actually was said.

As noted, that character trait of completely missing the point is what several people find frustrating about your behaviour. Liking you or not doesn't come into it.

You and doogie first.

PS: That's the second time you've mentioned standing up for or defending me. Feel free to agree with me or not on any subject that comes up, but don't imagine for one moment that I need to be defended or stood up for by anyone.

As an impartial bystander, and at the risk of getting involved in the crossfire, I would say this all started to go a bit Pete Tong around about post 9, which was unnecessarily abrasive in my humble opinion.

In the interests of calling a truce, Ms. Gentile perhaps you would care to consider stepping down from DefCon 2; I don't imagine the other protagonists are too interested in posting a response so let's move on.

Agreed. There was a history to post 9, but it's not worth going into. The bottom line is it's a mistake to argue with anyone on the internet, but on CUK it's doubly-pointless. I'll leave this particular 'debate' alone at this juncture.

Hang on a minute, Doogie abused you via rep system for a thread on business section ? That is a straight ban offense, I hope the mods have taken a look at this.
