    I'm sorry you always need to declare yourself the winner when you haven't won anything.

    I'm sorry you have people telling you that you are a douche and an excruciating bore.

    I'm sorry you need to rely on your mod status rather than earning some respect and credibility the hard way.

    Maybe its about time you question why you are here and what exactly it is you have contribute, hopefully before this forum is dead.

    Perhaps you could just declare yourself the all time greatest winner of every debate and then leave? There must be a pub without a bore somewhere.

    This could be your problem - You see things in terms of winning and loosing, and when you find you can’t defend an idea you think of yourself as a looser and suppose I think of myself as a winner.

    But I don’t see political argument in terms of winning or loosing as I said many times in elections sometimes the best argument or candidate losses, other times they win but not because anyone has weighed up the opposing arguments.

    This is a talking shop, a place to put up an argument and see if it stands up to scrutiny, really its not my fault if you can’t defend your ideas, and rather than get bitter about it why not improve the ideas or get completely new ones?

    And you do seem bitter, I mean –

    Yes you are one of the people calling me names so come on are you really sorry, I don’t think so, it seems to me that you’re just being spiteful because you don’t like your ideas being criticised and feel you’re a ‘loser’ because you’re unable to defend them.

    So you look around for excuses –


    You can’t stand the idea that your ideas have less merit than you think they do so rather than blame the ideas you irrationally blame the person that has criticised them.

    Not only must the person be a ‘bore’ whose lacking in ‘respect and credibility’ they must also have some type of advantage, and its that ‘advantage’ that allows them to ‘win’, that must be it you feel, that’s why your arguments don’t stand – because it can’t me be that your arguments that aren’t that good.

    Of course you would like me to leave, because I’m sure you would like the person that consistently opposes what you say – to leave.

    In another thread you claim that you don’t take things here seriously and I think that is true right up to the point when you find your being criticised and can’t defend you ideas from the criticism, then the jovial mask seem to disappear and you start name calling, bitching and blaming.

    Look Hipstatic do you really think that childish name-calling and petulant bitching will make you ideas sound any better or do they just undermine them even more.

    LOL! Calm down Balbus. Obviously my comments have hit home, sorry if the truth hurts.

    I'm going to let you end this little chat with another long rambling post where you proclaim all my arguments invalid and bask in your own glory.

    Enjoy the last word, I know how much it means to you.
