Especially given how hard you seem to try to write dissertations in each post, efforts spent to prove a point to a random person on an anime forumboard a remarkably crappy forumboard.. No hard feelings, simply curious. Because from my point of view, it seems like a complete waste of time. |

Hey guy, you quoted the wrong person's name into that quote. You might want to correct that so as to maintain the integrity of the debate people have been having. You accidentally quoted my name under a false quote instead of the original writer, Korotoko, but it's all good. No hard feelings. @Inconscient: Sometimes I am amazed at how much effort Blood puts forth into his posts and responses as well (although technically, to him it might not be much effort at all, it's just from our viewpoint it seems that way), but I am extremely thankful that he does.. because you're right, this is a very crappy forum board at times. People click a topic, respond to the OP, and go on about watching anime, and that's fine. It just makes me all the more thankful that there are also members like Blood that actually read responses and respond to them, creating discussions and debates within a thread that make the thread itself far more interesting. |

Ohh well, I guess that's kind of true.. Wasn't really questioning his activity, but how he actually finds the time to write his shit. Like I said, a lot of people here are very biased and simply block out your argument before you even state it. They (in my opinion) are just to be left alone to figure out their stupidity by themselves, instead of filling up 2-3 pages trying to convince them until they eventually leave.. Haven't really had the chance to chat with him yet so I can't clarify, but writing a chunk of text long enough to pass for use as a scholarly article seems to me like he's simply building up pride on here. Not saying that's a bad thing in particular, but to be frank pride on MAL is quite useless.. Anyway I didn't mean this as an accusation, simply wondering.. If you have the time Blood, continue as you wish, though I'd recommend you find a forum where people actually put up a reasonable argument for a change. |

| Gaiz, gaiz, just to clarify: All I do is box now. That's 3 hours of training, 45 min subway to the gym and 45 min back. That leaves me with a shitload of free time when I get home =d. It's not like my girl(s) asks me to come in bed and I respond with, "hold on love, someone's wrong....on the internet" LOL! These long posts take 1-2 min to type up (650 characters per minute typing speed, you get that from being a WC3 player before Ventrilo and Teamspeak became commonly used). TBH 85% of my rebuttals are already in my head before the person even responds with their next post. It's especially easy with people like Korotoko and Vinter who react so predictably. |

You're exaggerating quite a bit. You take much longer than 1-2 minutes. It takes time formulating ideas, finding information to back them, then organizing, and revising all that. Nobody is fast enough to do coherent WALLS of text in 1-2 minutes, that's pushing it. |

Legendre said: @Inconscient: You're describing every internet forum I have ever been a part of. If you have found this mystical forum where people actually have reasonable discussions please direct me there lol Of course, I'm not saying every single person has to be the reincarnation of Jesus to call the forumboard decent... I for instance often use a forumboard dedicated to computer activities (coding etc...). It's a pretty large community and of course newfags are always popping up, but most frequent users are at least cool. Talking about where there's a relevantly isolated community; where the residents actually have some pride, ever heard of reputation system? Anyway, there are a lot of great forumboards out there in between the skiddy ones, you just have to locate them. Ohh and protip; if a dedicated forum has a discussion/chat section, stay out of it. That's usually where the LQ people gather. @Blood Good enough for me.. |

| @Inconscient: lol @ the reincarnation of Jesus comment.. but yeah, I haven't been a part of an internet forum that actually uses its reputation system effectively (I've been a part of a few that have one, but don't actually use it, or use it to troll people), would be interesting to see it work. Anyway, for fear of straying too far off topic (guess it's a little late for this..) we should probably stop here. Msg me on my profile or something if you want to continue talking. |
