Who rattled your cage SS?
And a fat lot of good that advice was.
About as much as good as his earlier posting about a downloader.

Are you saying I've stopped answering posts properly by expressing my views on the topics posters bring up, and now just resort to sniping, flaming, and sarcasm; without bringing anything useful to the topic discussed?

Damn, you must be contagious mart! !wink!

[mart]

Whatever SS.
The jackals hunt in packs on this forum.
Yet again resorting to accusations of flaming, sniping etc. when someone doesnt agree with you.
I believe this has become a standard tactic with manipulative people.
Why do I even bother to respond?

Ah the imageshack downloader written in Perl - works a treat. Can't help it if you don't know how to use it.

I always live by Nietzche's "he man of knowledge must be able not only to love his enemies but also to hate his friends."

I don't hunt in packs mart. If I think someone's right, I'll say it regardless of other peoples views, and I'll contradict anyone who I think is wrong regardless of an opposing majority. This personality trait doesn't win you hoards of friends, but the friends you have are more trusted, and honest friendships.

I'm not blind to the fact that Jacques & you don't see eye to eye, but the fact remains that you asked for help and then you started sniping at someone's social life. For what? Gratification? Hey we all make sarcastic remarks sometimes -that's human nature for you- but that's 'all' I see you do.

I've said it once, and I'll say it again. I've not seen anything regarding your personal view on 'any' topic discussed on here, only your view on other peoples views. Whether you're wrong or right in your view it's a cowards road you travel. Expressing your views strongly on a tricky subject can see you arguing with 90% of the posters but that's what discussions all about. Keeping your views to yourself and just flaming other peoples views is...............well..............I think 'snidey' is the best adjective to describe your posts off the top of my head.

This is why I like going in to bat against Sam and why I like reading his posts, we don't have to agree but can have a damn good fight about it and I'd still buy him a pint at the end of it.

And yeah I don't see eye-to-eye with mart, is it so obvious?

Cheers sir. We all disagree and agree in equal measure I hope, and it shows individuality. Nothing wrong with that. Sometimes I've agreed with mart on his disagreements with someone or other, but he just never seems to expose his own personal views at all. Why can't he just stick his neck out and tell us his view on a topic rather than resorting to constant negative remarks upon other peoples posts?

Oh and as for buying me a pint, I hope you're not assuming I'm easy? !wink!

[Sam Slater]

[quote]and even when my original opinion has not been changed by his posts, I still feel I have learned something.[/quote]

!blush!

Cheers, you're only being nice cos it's nearly Christmas though, and as for you learning off me?! I'm gonna send you my ex-headmasters number. He'd laugh his bollocks off at that one Warren (you being a teacher & all). He'd probably lose the will to live (can you tell we never got on?)

!drink!
