I think my effort does serve a positive purpose.
Got you all talking again, didn't it?
And Striker, your back-handed compliment is something I'd consider as good a 'troll' as any. As far as the rest of you are concerned, I suppose it's an "attack" when it comes from me, but "constructive, fair-minded criticism" when it's source is anyone else.
Sparrowhawk, your not-so-subtle attempt to compare me to DraconicDink is not appreciated. I was just hoisting you on your own petard. Some of what he said is just unintelligible. And yes, 'poor taste' is an objective criticism, otherwise it's just 'taste' and if it's the opposite of yours, it's just different, not 'good', 'bad', or anything else. That is, if you're as subjective as you pretend to be, which you aren't.
Tal: Adamant, yes. Arrogant, bite me. I'm no more or less arrogant than anyone else here trying to defend his opinion.
I thought we were having an argument/discussion here. I'm just trying to win. If you expect me to relent, guess again.
Again, not defending Simon's every move. Although I can see how painting my argument as simplisticly as that would make it easier for you to win-- 'straw man' tactic, there.
But, back to the original point, as to the efforts my postings have served...
How the hell do you entertain yourselves? As far as I can see, it's in much the same way.
And try taking some personal responsibility, if anyone here has in inferiority complex (which I highly doubt), it's 100% their problem, and 0% mine. That's not what I'm trying to do, although I can see how a difference of opinion might be interpreted as a personal attack and stunt the mental growth and personal development of the weak-minded. Please.
And for the paranoid among you, that last comment was not directed at anyone personally, Tal.
For the record, my aim was not to enshrine Simon's work, but to have it portrayed in the proper perspective. One thing you said is true, more effort really does show through.
However, the truth of it is that all these points are really mute, now.
All these mods are over and done with. Yesterday's news. Let's see some new stuff. Which was my original point, if you'll notice.
