Skip this if you don't want to see a loser attempt to flame me
dancingdrew - Furthermore, farmers tend to be in foreign countries operating on US servers.
If you're going to nitpick that they might be AMERICANS in foreign countries...well, you ARE ghostlight.
linkmedia - And that quote was written by a Canadian. Technically a foreigner to the US.
Since your splitting hairs.
dancingdrew - I'm not splitting hairs. You claimed that people who sell in-game money for out-of-game money tend to be foreign. Prove it.
linkmedia - No, I said they TEND TO BE. Interesting that you like to be overly literal until its destroying your arguement.
And prove to me that the TEND not to be.
I didnt say it was an absolute. I dont know why you are still buried in this feeble attempt to defend farmers.
dancingdrew - Me: You claimed that people who sell in-game money for out-of-game money tend to be foreign.
You: No, I said they TEND TO BE.
its alright lern 2 read.
I don't have to prove anything, dearie--you made the original claim, burden of proof is on you.
And if you think asking for proof of an unsubstantiated claim related to nationality is a "defense," boy, you've got something ELSE spinning around in that head of yours...
linkmedia - The only thing I have spinning right now is to figure out just which of your verble faux pas to watch you squirm around first.
Let me see.... I was about to let it drop since you seem to be the only one who cares about your crusade to validate farmers (I do wonder if you would have supported nazi's too) but then you drop this gem of an argument in my lap.
I can hardly resist.
First, I made the statement that it would be easy to track the behaviours of farmers since they typically use an account 24hrs a day and "tend to be foreign using accounts on US servers." Now that you have caught up, I will continue.
My statement was a generalization to support the BEHAVIOURS that may be used to track these nefarious farmers you do seem so fond of defending. Thats all.
But you had to insist on me justifying my vauge statement. Poof is not required. Well since you seem to love pusuing the futile, I pointed out that it was a general statement and not an absolute, but you didnt get that.
THEN you have the nerve, or more accurately, the ignorance to call me out on PROOF that a vague general statement such as the one I used does not require. So to use your own logic against you, I ask you to prove to me that they do NOT tend to have farming enterprises outside of the US. Go ahead. Re-read it.. I will wait.
NOW... you say "lern 2 read" I don't think I have to point out just how very grade 5 that sounds. Do you always resort to kiddie leetspeek when you have no point? Thought so.
And just as if your mental suicide wasnt enough of a burden, you have to ice this cake with a profound assumption that I am your "dearie".
Pay attention young one, I am not anyone's "dearie". Your effeminate nominclature might pass as charming while trying to look smart in front of the fanboys in the comic shop, but calling a GUY dearie just makes you look dumb. (in case you were wondering this is yet another assumption you made, not me)
I am sure there is still some of your dignity that has yet to be eviscerated publicly, so please... keep up your rampage. Its quite entertaining.
Oh, in case you are just getting the point, this is where you respond with some witty insult in which you pretend I care that you have less of a point now than you started with.
I look forward to ignoring your ever increasing attempt to get in the last stab when we already forgot you existed.
I would hate to see another rage inspired attempt shattered upon you already discredited ego, so please, count to ten before posting.
If you are able.
dancingdrew - (I do wonder if you would have supported nazi's too)
Godwin.
I pointed out that it was a general statement and not an absolute, but you didnt get that.
No, I got that. I asked you to substantiate your "general statement." I'm not asking you to prove that all gold farmers are Chinese preteens. I'm asking you to explain WHY you believe they "tend to be" in foreign countries.
So to use your own logic against you, I ask you to prove to me that they do NOT tend to have farming enterprises outside of the US.
No. Like I said, it was your claim. It's your responsibility to substantiate. I don't have to compensate for your laziness.
NOW... you say "lern 2 read" I don't think I have to point out just how very grade 5 that sounds. Do you always resort to kiddie leetspeek when you have no point? Thought so.
Let's simplify this for you, honey. You: "Farmers tend to be foreign." Me: "Why do you think farmers tend to be foreign?" You: "I SAID THEY TEND TO BE FOREIGN." You obviously could not or would not read what I actually said, so I made a WoW forum joke at you. Apologies if it sailed over your misshapen head.
Pay attention young one, I am not anyone's "dearie".
Somehow, I'm not surprised.
(in case you were wondering this is yet another assumption you made, not me)
I didn't assume anything. Your LJ name is Rodney. I was aware of your gender. You seem to be under the impression that I give a damn.
Oh, and by the way, learn how to spell and use punctuation before you attempt to claim an intellectual victory, sugarcakes. I wouldn't want you to hurt yourself.
linkmedia - The fact that you bothered to reply only proves my point.
You are (or were) a staff member at LJDrama aka "attention whores for dummies" and you take pride in quoting one of your online friends as saying "Never expect to have a civilized or intelligent discussion with dancingdrew. His goal in life is to be argumentative"
So since you have already proven yourself to simply argue for the sake of arguing when there is NOTHING to argue about, then you have already defeated yourself. My generalization requires no proof, its a suggestive to support a possible scenario. Get it yet? Didnt think so.
You accused me of assuming that ALL farmers are foreigners, to which I said they TEND TO BE, something supported in this very community as well as on the WoW forums (long threads defending the term "loot ninja" and "chinese farmers" clarifies that they might MOSTLY be non-american players, but not neccessarily chinese) and not to mention the mass emailing Blizzard sent out addressing the rise in account fraud. They even addressed them as "foreign wealth farmers" and "leveling services". While you are accusing me of failing to read, I would suggest reading your own emails. I wonder why they would assume that since you know so much better???
Stop calling me your girly names. I am secure enough in my sexuality to not be threatened by homosexuals and count a number of alternative lifestyle people as close friends in my life. At least they have the decency to not cheapen their lifestyle choice to think that you can call every guy by your girly names. You seem to think your flaming affectations are going to unnerve me. Sorry, try another trick kid.
You accuse me of being incapable of spelling even AFTER you told me to "lern to spell". That's just weak.
I tire of playing into your childish backtalk and circular logic. You already know you are wrong and that you dont have any more reason than this aside from generating some sort of empty arguement you already lost. I am sure this is what you like to do with your time, but I am through watching you embarass yourself.
Feel free to post this to your little moron lj drama club. I know thats why you bothered to babble in the first place.
dancingdrew - You are (or were) a staff member at LJDrama aka "attention whores for dummies" and you take pride in quoting one of your online friends as saying "Never expect to have a civilized or intelligent discussion with dancingdrew. His goal in life is to be argumentative"
Funny, I didn't have to go to your userinfo to find ample evidence of cranial trauma.
You accused me of assuming that ALL farmers are foreigners
Provide a link to said accusation?
this very community as well as on the WoW forums
An LJ community and a player forum. Authoritative, wot.
They even addressed them as "foreign wealth farmers"
Open email. Ctrl-F "foreign". "The phrase was not found in the document."
At least they have the decency to not cheapen their lifestyle choice to think that you can call every guy by your girly names.
Yeah, I'll bet you hold them in high regard, candy-ass.
You accuse me of being incapable of spelling even AFTER you told me to "lern to spell". That's just weak.
I thought it was rather obvious that "its alright lern 2 read" was a joke. Since it DID go over your head, would you like to compare spelling and grammar errors over the course of this conversation?
I know thats why you bothered to babble in the first place.
What's your excuse? :D
linkmedia - I wont lower myself into letting you continue to pretend you have some mental leverage on me.
You already know you are beaten so you resort to empty insults and weak retorts.
And yes "candy ass" I do hold all my friends in high regard. I am not as feeble as a troll like you to try and use your lifestyle choice like some sort of crutch.
Enjoy washing dishes kid, someday you can aspire to short order cook.
You are beaten, dont bother to reply, the thread is already gone. Im tired of you wasting my time with your blatant stupidity.
dancingdrew - Oh, and by the way, I have the thread backed up. I'm thinking of reposting it somewhere so the world can know how incredibly bright you are--because you're obviously a little camera shy. :D
linkmedia - Priceless. You presume I am not worth much more than a "buffoon" who cant play video games. This coming from a DISHWASHER studying THEATRE. And you talk to me about stereotypes.
Your threats to back this shit up and repost it is weak. As if I care what mindless morons who would read your dribble would think of me? The sort of social rejects that troll looking for flamewars are of little consequence to me kid. I deleted the posts because they are pointless, like you.
And feel free to post it. All you prove with your empty assumptions is that you can troll and start fights over nothing. You are worthless and THIS is all you will ever amount to. Enjoy that lovely smell that rubber gloves leave on your hands boy.
ps, your increasingly frequented faggot stereotypes just prove how weak you are.. please consider a vocabulary. Those candyass and honey remarks only work on sexually insecure people who think being gay is wrong.
If you're going to nitpick that they might be AMERICANS in foreign countries...well, you ARE ghostlight.
