A lot of people on this board are territorial, yes. But very few newcomers manage to consistantly hit nerves as much as Somthor does. Hell, I don't like him - and that normally takes EFFORT by people. I mean, I count count on one hand the number of people here who actively annoy me... and it doesn't even take the whole hand.
I think he's just somehow managed to develop a talent for pissing people off.

There was much rejoicing when Nina said this:
Oh, of course, Parcelan-san is the most popular figurehead on the boards and thus should dictate everyone else's opinions.Not.
You're just upset because your entire moral compass has been reduced to the self-serving sham it really is.
Bummer, dude.
Besides his title says it all. We've just gotten used to and accepted it anyway.In all honesty, If I ever get upset at Sage, its for his methods, not a lack of usefullness or intelligence which he offers quite a bit of.
Somthor on the other hand... Trying to demand the respect equal to what another has earned while not having earned that same respect yourself... Well that's an easy way to get the worse possible attention, label, you can have.
But hey, I'm just a lurker. I have been for pretty much 2 years. Almost three. A lurker who's nearly gone gold, and isn't all that well known. At least I know my place in this community and accept it.
I just got tired of trying to find a way to politely phrase the fact that he's an idiot.

He's in his forties, and is apparently married, for instance. He's been in the military, apparently in the air force (since he refers to Sage as having a higher rank). But these are facts he whips out as part of an argument or the like. We have no context to put his comments into, because he hasn't been around long enough, whereas with Sage, we know quite a bit.
And I hope no one would go so far as to think I was insulting Bloodsage. Aside from the obvious fact that I wouldn't want him to tear a piece off of me, I consider Bloodsage to be someone very worthy of my respect, even if I don't always agree with his methodology or stance on a certain subject. For some reason I keep having to point that out every few months hehehe

Channeling the spirit of Sherlock Holmes, Ja'Deth Issar Ka'bael absently fondled Watson and proclaimed:
I think I may have been mis-read here. I was calling Bloodsage "arrogant, obnoxious, and rude" because the insinuation had been made that because board regulars act that way, we should accept newbies who we know nothing about acting that way as well. And the argument I made (using Bloodsage as an example) was that yes, Sage is all of those things, but we accept it due to context. Context is something you can only understand by observing something (in this case Sage's action, or on the larger scale how the board works). Somthor didn't, therefore while we will accept it when Sage is "arrogant, obnoxious, and rude", because we know him and he's earned his rights, Somthor is a newbie who seems to have gone out of his way to be as assinine as possible, while revealing next to nothing about himself until he chooses to whip it out.He's in his forties, and is apparently married, for instance.

He's 34 and he used to be in the Navy as an E-5. . .firefighter or weapons controller of some sort I think he said. 
Have to address everyone else's points when I get back from work. And I'd really like to hear what Lashanna has to say; intelligently dissenting views are always welcome. [ 12-04-2003: Message edited by: Bloodsage ]
--Satan, quoted by John Milton
Therefore consider Fae's last post as basically my opinion. I can't way I always agree with Sage's methods and he does annoy me sometimes but he is intelligent and correct most of the time. Somthor, on the other hand..
Well, I can't say I hate him since I don't particularly hate anyone here but I would pull out the 'lurk more' card about now

gentle correction. IM 34, I served in the Navy not the Airforce. I was a FC-2 (E-5) which makes me someone who rose a bit in rank but nothing really noteworthy its entirely possible to join and go out to the fleet E-5 rank after your schools. thus its not a sign of any merit whereas to achive O-5 you have to pretty much have your ducks in a row.
I bring out facts as people ask or it seems pertinate, pretty much all you need to know about me is out there.

No I never said that. I'd personaly feel like i was leaching if I didnt contribute.
The main problem, besides your spelling and grammar, is that you act like you don't have to listen to anyone else.
People bring up irrefutable proof of an issue you are arguing; or someone with much more knowledge of a subject then you posts their educated opinion with facts to back it up, and you completely disregard it. Not only do you disregard it, but you refute their claims with no backup, whatsoever.
For instance; I stated what I knew was happening at Wal-mart because I worked there for almost a year. In fact, I worked on the day in question.
You responded you worked for Sam's Club (a different company) for 4 months, which... somehow, in your mind, seemed to trump me working there.
With the "Mr Blood Sage" he was commenting on you splitting his name in half. Look and see that his name is spelled "Bloodsage". One word.
What seems to be the major problem is you get these ideas in your head, and you voice them; there is no proof behind them, and you will not listen to anyone else's refutations of them. So, even with experts in the particular field telling you that you are mistaken, you say you are right, and they have to prove you wrong.
quote:
To Quote Bloodsage:Further, you've just violated every rule of logic known to humanity: one doesn't simply make assertions then vow that they're correct unless proven otherwise. What is it that makes you think conventional weapons will work against hard and deeply buried targets?
That's the whole crux of the arguement. What makes you think your arguement will work? You don't back up your arguements in ways that can't be refuted with other, better sources. You act like you know everything about whatever you are tlkaing about, whether you actually SAY you do, or not. Even though yousay you know nothig about something, you get upset and keep arguing when someone who knows more then you corrects you. And it takes you so frigging long to admit defeat - and you still don't.
Bloodsage says you are completely and utterly mistaken. You say "I believe you!" and then... you keep arguing.
Don't you see a problem here?
I hope this Somthor bashing fad ends quickly. I stuck him on ignore a while ago, and may have to end up ignoring a good portion of this board if every other thread doesn't stop turning into a "hey lets bash Sothmor again!" thread.

Uh, he didn't say that at all. He said he personally doesn't want to be a leech. He didn't generalize and say everyone who doesn't, is a leech. That was just your own misunderstanding and grasping for something that just wasn't there.

yes in my mind Wal mart and Sam's club are the same thing becuse they are owned by the same parent company. you asked if i had ever worked there and so I responed that I had. cant help it if you think they are not the same and I do.
Yes he blasted me on how I should be addressing him which is the same as me asking him to then not address me as "Dude"
Bloodsage was saying A I was saying B when I finaly realized B was A i said you are right and I stoped argueing the point.. please show me where after I said i was misstaken that i continuted? what followed after that was a question of Sub orbital kenitic energy weapons which would be "C" and I dont think Bloodsage commented on them and the thread eventualy died out.
talk about being dense you parrot over and over my spelling and grammer and how im annoying, how many times do you have to repeat that until you realize saying that isnt going to change anything?

Hey man, it's simple.
Opinions are worth about as much as the effort you put into conveying them to the people you want to listen to them.
Meaning that your opinion is worth shit 
Seriously. It doesn't matter how intelligent your point May or May Not have been, when you express it like a six-year-old would, it makes us treat it like such.

Someone who says that to me, may very well know the meaning of life! But because he types it in like a retarded monkey on crack with broken fingers and wrists, do you think I'm going to take him seriously?
That is you, Somthor! A retarded monkey banging away. Your points are worthless because reading through the mess that is your posts is like trying to understand someone who speaks in pig latin. It's possible, but it's more trouble than you are worth. [ 12-04-2003: Message edited by: Khyron ]

Now, let's go over what was missing. Punctuation was! And what was messed up? Spelling was! Grammar was!
Somthor, I'm not parroting anything. I'm telling you that your opinion is worthless because you don't take the extra ten seconds it takes, to look over your post, fix missing capitalization, add in missing punctuation, and ask yourself, "Did I spell that right?". Sure, it's only a few marks here and there. But this, this was a SMALL post. On your big posts, they're everywhere (Apart from where you C&P stuff).
If you can't be bothered to take the time to spell your words right and make it clear and easily readable, why the fuck should I bother reading through it?

However, in your defense... I can excuse UBB mistakes because you don't use UBB, well, all the time.
Spelling and grammar, however, should be part of your daily life, and you should have 34 years of experience under your belt. There's no excuse for being a shitty as hell at it. Even that lame Dyslexia excuse you put forth. [ 12-04-2003: Message edited by: Khyron ]
