You say youve been on the destiny forums since halo 2, which im not sure is possible considering destiny wasnt even a thought at that point
English
-
Lots and lots of fail on your part friend.
-
I like the reading comprehension skills of everyone, i said destiny forum, which in no way has it been around since halo 2.
-
It's funny that you mention reading comprehension skills when the guy you responded to wrote "these forums" and didn't mention Destiny. The b.net forums have been here for a long time.
-
He didnt have to, we are in the destiny forums, by not specifying bungie or destiny it is assumed that it would be destint forums, since we are in them. It would be like saying these basketballs but you actually mean basketballs from the clippers
-
Within the context of his final sentence, it was obvious to what he was referring. By all mean, continue to grasp at straws, though.
-
Actually by the context it isnt clear, if someone doesnt know when halo 2 came out they may not know destiny came out much later, and people would also assume that being in the destiny forums, unless otherwise stated, you would talk about destiny forums when saying these forums. But by all means keep trying to say it should be assumed he is talking about something else
-
Dang man he killed you lol
-
You didnt read the whole conversation
-
Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaand... Muted. Enjoy it. I know I will.

You can always tell when someone loses an argument, they have to mute and act like they are better than the other person

[quote]You can always tell when someone loses an argument, they have to mute and act like they are better than the other person[/quote] Nope, what actually happened here was you lost the argument. "These forums" are the Bungie forums, the Destiny section happens to be just one of the sub-sections. *this is the part where you attempt to exploit flimsy semantics to support your position, c'mon, it's gonna be fun, I can't wait*
-
You have been around here a while, haven't you?
-
Pretty funny that now tou come back after multiple people tried fighting your battle for you, all i have been saying is use better language, i dont think i lost that argument because i didnt have to resort to something as petty as muting, but you can view it however you want

[quote]Pretty funny that now tou come back after multiple people tried fighting your battle for you,[/quote] It's almost like ... I live in another time zone and was sleeping. So crazy, huh? [quote]all i have been saying is use better language[/quote] Saying "these forums" is completely fine. If you legitimately didn't understand that Bungie had been around long before Destiny, that's fine. But it's not up to me to lace every sentence with a history lesson. [quote]i dont think i lost that argument because i didnt have to resort to something as petty as muting, but you can view it however you want[/quote] You lost [i]before[/i] you were muted. You were muted because you tried so hard to latch on to a flimsy justification. But I know how it is with your kind; when someone walks away from a debate because their opponent's argument writhes on long after its demise, all you see is a straw on the ground. The straw, grab that straw son, it's your key to winning! You can still win this!

Ah more pettyness, why arent you walking away, do you just need to feel big and bad, trying to tell people to grasp straws and stereotyping, all i said was use better language, these forums in the specific destiny forum means destiny forums, not the bungie forums. But you will keep going on, probably saying something along the lines of oh now you have to be defensive because that straw isnt there anymore.

[quote]Ah more pettyness, why arent you walking away, do you just need to feel big and bad, trying to tell people to grasp straws and stereotyping, all i said was [i]use better language[/i], these forums in the specific destiny forum means destiny forums, not the bungie forums.[/quote] Can you spot the ironic part of that abomination of a sentence? Hint: it's italicised. [quote]these forums in the specific destiny forum means destiny forums[/quote] Prove it. That's just one possible interpretation of what 'these forums' means. It also happens to be the interpretation your entire argument is based on. [quote]But you will keep going on, probably saying something along the lines of oh now you have to be defensive because that straw isnt there anymore.[/quote] You're right, I probably shouldn't kick a man while he's down. Are we done here, or do you require more evisceration?

[quote]Prove it. That's just one possible interpretation of what 'these forums' means.

Definition of this(in case you didn't know these are a plural of this), used as a pronoun. The specific thing would be the destiny forum, as it wouldn't make sense to say the thorn forum, and destiny forum is what this thread is in, therefore in this case these=destiny.

I'm sorry you misunderstood me ... then subsequently concocted an elaborate argument to prove that you didn't misunderstand me and that I was at fault.

Considering I simply said you should use better language in your remark, I knew you meant the forums as a whole, but simply said what I did partly as a joke and partly saying that others could be serious. It wasn't until people said things calling me out that I defended my statement, seeing as people did not take it as jokingly as I intended. But I guess it's my fault that I didn't show it was a joke more. Moral of the story:Don't assume I don't understand you, it's not like your intelligence level is high anyways.

I give you a 6/10 for that dismount, you lost points for ending with a pretty poor insult. Have a nice life, mate.

-
Can you take a hint at all? everyone else here already knows you lost this argument ages ago. Just stop trying.
-
Pretty funny that you would say that, you come into the argument, after it's over, and say to stop. That makes total sense
-
apparently its not over, seeing as though you replied so quickly.
-
I replied quickly because I was on my phone watching youtube. I don't know if you noticed but everything was said and done when you added your two cents. You should probably stop, considering you look like a fool when everything was done
