The Trilogy is massively underrated

[Z J]

Your arguments are bullshit and noone cares about them. Trilogy minus most of the Dos is one of their best works. We all know you hate it so there is no good reason to keep explaining why you hate it. I love the trilogy and you can go jack off to AI garbage too.

Please, for entertainment, explain why my arguments are bullshit but yours (I haven't seen a real argument, only angrily stated finalities) are so enlightened

[DookieLukie]

So he has a good vocabulary and that makes him self-righteous? I guess all of us English majors are fucked, then.

It's not about the vocabulary. See...if you people had any sort of social skills you'd understand where this is coming from. It's the way it's said and phrased.

[Z J]

It's phrases like that...sounds so self-righteous and mightier than though. You say that to a group of people irl and you get eye-rolls.

I'm not trying to be self righteous, but if you're in a debate and you use logical fallacies, people in real life will call you on it. You're argument contained a lot of those, so I stated as such, nothing more

So knowing words that a high school graduate should know makes him self righteous?

Btw, how was Seagull's last post not self-righteous? Just wondering

Because you have such social skills. Remember the racist rant you got suspended for? That was a dazzling display of social grace.

If your argument is fallacious--which it was--there's nothing wrong in saying so. If anything, Zack is treating you with respect by responding to your position with formality rather than "That's fucking stupid."

I'd prefer that response instead of some old English novel. And you think my online behavior is at all similar to the real world? No, because it's the internet, and nothing here is "real." My relationships in the real world matter. My actions in the real world matter. Obviously you can't differentiate. In my opinion, the internet doesn't count as a social life. It's the opposite.

Then how the fuck can you judge OUR social behavior via the internet?! The contradiction is mind-blowing.

[DookieLukie]

I get that my whole point here is completely lost on people because I think entirely differently. We have different ideas of life, so everything that may seem sane to you guys seems very weird and peculiar to me. And that's how it always will be until you become exposed to my world or I succumb to yours.

Implying fallacious is a word found in old English novels? Logical fallacies are a basic part of debate (or shouldn't be, for that matter).

Nobody here is even discussing our freaking social lives. You seem very strung up on explaining to us that you have one. We get it. And we are proud of you

Ok you're right. You could be pretending to be anti social/strange just like I'm pretending. Good point.

[Anaïs.]

Or I could just not be pretending at all and actually be perfectly social. I don't know if you've noticed, but we Trilogy haters have friends here. Quite a few, in fact. And one of us was made an admin in less than a year, which you don't get by being antisocial.

But you use big words….clearly you aren't social.

This is sarcasm right? Or did you actually mean that being friends with people online, particularly and admin, makes you a social person? When did internet friends become a source of social interaction? That's sad right there.

[Anaïs.]

But you use big words.clearly you aren't social.

Alas, you have discovered my lurking, ebon secret, you malevolent archfiend.

[DookieLukie]

But whatever. Done here. I won't get through to you partly because of your need to defend your own actions and the obvious differences in how we define social interaction.

[WhiteTim]

Why do you think folks on here have no real life or friends?

[DookieLukie]

Because of phrases like that

I'm saying that one doesn't rise from nothing to one of the three people running a site within twelve months without possessing a certain force of personality.

You know what I think is sad? That you have to resort to these bitter, pointless ad hominem attacks when you've lost a debate.

Because of phrases like that

Yes, I was clearly serious there. You've nailed it.

A homeschooled kid fits in just fine with a bunch of other anti-social homeschooled kids. That's what I mean about different worlds. You might have social success here, but not in the real world.

And what debate did I lose?

[Z J]

Because of phrases like that

Does intellect intimidate you? To the point that you can justify insulting other people while discussing MUSIC? That, my friend, is sad.

1. And you know my level of success in the real world...how?

2. The one where you asserted that all we Trilogy haters do it for attention. You've forfeited it by resorting to personal attacks and abandoning any sort of reasoned argument for your original position.

[Sauli]

I have figured out the eternal cycle of GDC. Steven comes in, says he hates AI and 2st CB, people tell him to fuck off and get tons of rep.

Seriously though, could we just stop this shitstorm already? Its getting ridiculous.

[WhiteTim]

Well in order to have a real life socially is you can't know any big words...

[Spike]

I think that's enough. DookieLukie, you're being an asshole. Now go back to your real world if you're as above arguing over pointless shit on the internet as you claim to be.
