After some deliberation, I have decided that it's not okay to let someone spread his lies about me, even if that someone might be mentally ill.
I mean... last time it was one of your alternate personalities, not you. Remember that Spiro?
Alhexx, feel free to split this - maybe he wants to respond. I can't in Unrelated, and I wouldn't because I don't think that moderating your
own arguments is cool.
The articles said people were singing and holding hands in the Wii lines and shooting each other in the PlayStation 3 line.
Did you think I drew conclusions this way out of my ass?
Pretty much. Seeing that the people
in the PS3 line were not shooting each other, unless you assume that robbers were standing in line?
*checks links again*
Nope, still nothing about people standing in lines and shooting each other.
Besides, most of the links are about the one and same Connecticut shooting over and over again. If you ask me, the scalper got what he deserved. Not for scalping, but for being fucking stupid. Hello, two men are threatening me with guns. Do I give them my money, or do I prefer to get shot for it? Why, of course I want to get shot over money! Jesus...
It's not like he'd ever have chances to earn that money over his lifetime, even if police fails to find it and he doesn't have insurance. Getting resurrected on the other hand, is considerably more difficult.
My guess would be that they learned tolerance from having to put up with you for so much longer, Mr. IQ.
Oh man, you are still jealous about that? Un-fucking-real.
I was right when I thought it would seriously eat you. Doesn't that alone prove that I see through your ruse much better than you'd like, or would like to admit?
Remember how you so selflessly and caringly helped Qhimm get his 157 (or whatever) score? Of course, no one could get so high without you, right?
...what you say?
You couldn’t possibly accept the facts regarding a certain psychologist, which you later blatantly accused of being a lie, which of course wasn’t a result of bruised ego but of your in-depth knowledge of my private life.
Hahahah. I'm a cynic and I merely apply Occam's razor to stories people tell me. I'm way more likely to believe what you can show me, than what you can claim. Let's face it, people on the Internets lie. Often, even. I could name several people from this board alone that do that. You included. And no, I'm not going to tell you how I
know, I'll rather let that eat you too.
If you choose not to believe me... well, that's
your problem.
Oh wait, my ego is bruised, because I pwned you in the test? There is something oh-so-very wrong with that idea.
Funny how the facts are that my boss kept trying to tell me how hard it will be to keep the project going and how important it was, while I kept telling him he could replace me easily and it isn’t as bad as he thinks.
Fact is that somewhat socially adept person would have found a way to word it in a manner that wouldn't have made him look like a pompous ass - if he wanted to. If your boss thinks that you are valuable, that's great - we have nothing against
that.
For example, the fact is I dislike sitting down for long periods of time and drawing anything. I’ve never given a sh*t about art in my life and never even mentioned it until so many years after being on the site.
In fact, my disdain towards drawing is so severe I haven’t drawn anything but scribbles in over 7 years. If pencil and paper actually required effort to obtain, I wouldn’t even draw scribbles.
Don't you think that it's somewhat surprising that you draw, if you hate it so?
And yeah, I know what you told me in your PM, but I'll let you tell it, if you want. I can state right now that I don't believe it, though. You are free to produce some proof, of course.
Do you know what drives people to pretend they know every motivation someone has for everything he or she does?
Yep! It’s ego!
Just like you tried to extend your incredible insight into the lives of people who you’ve never seen and with whom you had no interaction. Of course, these minor issues thwart not the incredible Mr. IQ who knows why people rob lines even though none of the clippings suggested any specific motive either way.
It's called life experience and common sense, not incredible insight. People are not as hard to figure out as you seem to think - especially stupid people
(and I count most criminals in this category) - and they are not as impressionable as you seem to think, either.
Because there weren’t suggestions that they robbed to get the machines, I didn’t even argue about it and met you at 50-50, without trying to draw conclusions that weren’t specifically stated in the articles.
Wait - didn't you just say that none of the clippings suggested any specific motive either way?
So, that would mean that you
did draw conclusions that weren't specifically stated in the articles, and you drew a huge one: people who play violent video games are violent, according to you.
You want to know what modesty is?
* It’s letting you believe that you got a higher IQ score on that pointless test ages ago. This whole time you’ve believed that, and I am happier allowing your ego to strive as long as we can get along better.
ROFLMAO!
You certainly were really upset - and still seem to be - considering that you just "let me believe that".
Liar.
Here's a hint for everyone who wants to lie - either online or in real life - you have to make it sound believable. I've seen many people who believe that they are way better liars than they really are.
Let's see, the first person - or one of the first - to ever mention his score was you. Trying fairly hard for a "pointless test", methinks. In case you didn't notice, I didn't even let anyone - except couple of people in private - to know that I had done the test, much less what I had scored. I'm not sure if Qhimm mentioned his in public, either.
When you jumped on the 'let's bash Jari'-bandwagon, by the time almost everyone had already jumped out, then I let you know that I had scored better than you.
So, basically you had known what I
would score - or that I would do the test in the first place - so you intentionally scored lower than you would otherwise in anticipation of the future, just so that you could let me believe something?
Not only that, but also set up an excuse right there and then, about how your shrink had told that you score lower in tests than you should. I hope that you don't mind horribly, if I just think that the scenario I mentioned is extremely unlikely, and thus you are just lying. First of all, you'd need to predict the future to be able to pull that off.
I'm surprised that a person of your superior intellect didn't realize my motives, though.
Dude, I was winding you up. I had figured that you are
extremely competitive, and boy was I right about that. My score is real, yes, I don't much like lying, but the reason I told you was purely to piss you off.
And it worked better than anything I've ever done to annoy anyone. More than year later you are still so pissed off that you keep going about IQ score this, IQ score that... face it buster, there are people who are smarter than you. Even on this board. And in plural. Deal with it.
* It’s letting people believe that Qhimm helped me hack more than half a function on the battle animation file format. Interview Yes, I was quite happy to cite Qhimm as a reference to share the spoils. People probably think he had more involvement than he had, but that’s just fine.
*chuckle*
I
could post what Qhimm told me about this, but I'll just let him do that himself, if he feels like talking to you. Let's just say that your views about the matter are quite different. I can't say that I'm surprised.
* It’s not pretending to know every twisted reason every human alive has for everything they do. Sound familiar much? Why is it that I managed to draw my conclusions based off things that were actually stated in the articles without getting too much into speculation. Of course, one could argue that my whole perception is speculation on the subject, but it’s speculation I gathered from those sources, and nothing I said about the subject is unfair.
Assuming that this is about
this thread, since you seem to jump around bit here...
"They won’t allow Grand Theft Auto: * or Dead or Alive: Beach Volleyball on their wholesome systems, so when a group of people come together in front of a store eager to buy a Nintendo product you aren’t going to see these blood-thirsty gangsters with guns and knives thinking violence is the way of life."I would say that that is a conclusion. A massive one. That was not mentioned anywhere in the articles - you said that yourself, and I was kind enough to check them again, too. And, considering the things that have been posted since, very wrong conclusion, too.
What do you do Jari?
Piss people—including Nori—off, harass mods, pretend you own the site, defend yourself at every turn in every case no matter how wrong you may be, go into depressive fits posting pictures of tears in your eye (for attention? Oh wait, I won’t try to find your hidden motives; I’m not so ego-centric), jump down everyone’s throat about spelling and grammar when even yours isn’t so hot (don’t get me wrong, it’s impressive for a non-native [dare I feed your ego with a compliment?]), run off new members who probably aren’t so bad to have, and all while calling Qhimm “That Swedish Fag†behind his back in one of your bipolar fits.
Let's see, due to sheer number of accusations, I'm going to go with bullet points on this one.
- It would seem that most people I piss off are asshats. I hope you don't miss them too much?
- In regard to Nori, there are quite a few things you don't know. And I'm not going to tell you. Feel free to ask her, I have no qualms about that, but I suspect that she is not going to tell you, either.
- You of course would like to present an example where I have been wrong, wouldn't you?
- For attention? How about as part of an apology? But you wouldn't know what that means, would you?
- And you'd rather let this forum descend into a land of IM-shorthand?
- In regard to new members, I hope you don't mind terribly, if I don't trust your judgment on them?
- Swedish fag? If you think that "Swedish git" = "Swedish fag", then sure. Otherwise... nope. No dice.
- Behind his back? Well, if you consider posting in Completely Unrelated as behind his back, then sure. Guilty as charged.
- Bipolar? So, you are a member of MD Junkie's school of medicine, now? Hate to break it to you, but just because he called me bipolar for not letting him act like an ass, doesn't mean that I am one. You might want to dig out a book or two - or to check the Internets - and you might find out exactly why I can't be bipolar.
But anyway, didn't someone say something
"...not pretending to know every twisted reason every human alive has for everything they do..." above? Come on, make up your mind.
Either you pretend, or you don't pretend. You can't have the cake and eat it too.
Who really needs tolerance from the members of this board, really?
What’s going to happen to your ego when Alhexx realizes he doesn’t need to take your sh*t?
What’s going to happen when he gets some confidence in himself so he doesn’t have to be convinced he is wrong in every situation with which you disagree with him?
You sure like manipulating people, huh? Take every chance you can to reassure yourself that you still have some kind of influence over this site (which you keep promising to leave).
One day Alhexx and Qhimm are going to realize that Alhexx got where he is because Qhimm saw it fit that he should be there, and every time you undermine the people Qhimm entrusted you undermine Qhimm himself.
But that’s okay with you because he’s just some “Swedish fag†right? It’s your site, right? Having it named after him is just for show, right?
Heheh. Well, you saw my reply to this above, I won't bother writing it again. It would however seem that someone is making pretty huge jumps to all kinds of conclusions here. You probably shouldn't, since you seem to actually
know very little.
Sony Co., Ltd. have consistently shown an attitude geared more towards money than anything else.
Nintendo has consistently shown an attitude geared more towards family and togetherness.
The two statements I have just written are fair unless someone manages to provide overwhelming evidence to the contrary.
Overwhelming evidence, even? Just because you said so?
Would regular common sense do? They are both businesses and their primary, secondary, tertiary and God-knows-whatartiary goal is to make money.
Nintendo chooses to do so in a somewhat different market, because it's easier to make money there - seeing that neither Sony or Microsoft are putting up much of a fight in that segment. If they did, Nintendo might have sudden change of heart about family games.
