Uh, no?
I don't have any particular investment in the romance aspect of the game, I just don't mind that other people do. It's really quite simple, I am able to accept the fact that other people have a different opinion than me. Also, I really dislike bullies, and someone who enters a thread with the intent to belittle and make fun of those that enjoy the subject is a bully.
Oh Lordy, Lordy I'll never sin again!
You've done exactly what I said always happens. Critisism leads to someone taking affront, which leads to the derailment. Thank you for making my point for me.
Opinions are not sacrosanct, if you don't like the criticism fine, don't let the door hit you on the way out. My reply was to Allan, I disagree with how he looks at it, and if you handn't taken affront to what I said. This would have ended on the previous page as we got bored an wandered off.
You started things off again, and here we are.
So you act like a jerk, hoping someone will react to you acting like a jerk, so you can be a jerk over the fact that you got a rise out of someone by acting like a jerk.
If romance threads and their discussion offend you so, then stay out of the thread.
It doesn't particularly offend me, at least not initially, until it becomes the exact same argument all over again, but that's irritating, not offensive. At which point I start making fun, because the thread is already headed for lockdown and it's derailed into something only vaguely similar to the original post.
See, you've done exactly what I said always happens. Criticism is not allowed "you can only like what I like and if you don't get out"
You've somehow taken offense but, if you let it go, this conversation wouldn't have happened and a series of silly posts 2 pages ago would have simply been forgotten. Congratulations for derailing this better than I ever could.
"LOL. My intentional jibe at people who enjoy things that I don't has elicited a response from people. Now I will blame them for responding to my intentional derailing of the thread and blame them. Muahahaha!"
I'm certainly not blaming you. I'm thanking you. I hadn't intended to get this thread locked down, but you guys have made that far more likely.
It's not going to hurt me, you wanted to discuss the topic more than I did. Yes, and if I'm making a jibe and you were silly enough to take it and get your panties in a bunch, you really proved my point regarding how vitriolic posters are whenever you criticise something they've invested themselves to an absurd degree. You just became offended on their behalf.
Also, I had no intention to make a reply until your unnecessary jibe at those who do enjoy this subject. And yes I became offended on their behalf because I generally become offended at unnecessary digs at people who are not offending anyone in the slightest.
Also, you keep mentioning vitriolic posters and taking offence to them, I am perfectly fine with posters who take offence (for whatever reason) to the romances. That is not what this little "tiff" is about. You specifaclly took offense to this entire thread (for reasons unknown), that is what I dislike. I'm not sure why you can't comprehend my reasoning, or the fact that you might be the single most hypocritical poster in all time, but all the power to you.
P.S. I am sorry for derailing the thread, just felt it necessary.
