Sure thing. How about this one you wrote on page 5? Very necessary for sure.

Question

So let me get this straight: The topic that I didn't respond to productively and with a level-headed argument was an allegation of trolling that itself was neither productive nor level-headed.

And here I was worried that someone had a legitimate point that I'd responded to in an illegitimate manner. Threshold's legitimate (although terribly misconceived) points had perfectly "productive and level-headed" responses.

If you argue that anyone who decides to supplement their ideas with name-calling should not be responded to with dignity, then you don't deserve dignified or courteous responses yourself.

Question

Can you read? I spelled it out for you: Legitimate points deem legitimate responses. No I don't care if you respond to "Yo Momma" with another "Yo Momma". I do care that you respond to the other points without that sort of idiocy. If you're such a whiner that you can't ignore a retaliatory insult in the midst of a valid argument, especially when that insult is not used to justify any claims, then that's fine, I don't care about your opinion anyway.

Your post has justified my case yet again. It already contains multiple examples of rude retorts. Plus the fact that you stated that your "retaliatory insult in the midst of a valid argument...is not used to justify any claims" is laughable because it further rests my case.

It is your attitude, approach, and serious lack of respect that makes for the immaturity your tone provides to the rest of the posters. Your lack of tact is highly detrimental to the arguments you are trying to arrange merely because you lack the basic finesse required to say things decently regardless of the point you are trying to make.

So don't be so brash. Stop being so directly insulting and maybe you'll get people more likely to listen to what you have to say. You do yourself more harm than help. If you're going to remain self-righteous with the way you talk, then you're going to continue being the one presenting himself in a bad light, not moi.

People who are arrogant enough to be so inconsiderate disgust me. I'm glad I never have to work with anybody who talks like this.

Question

I often wonder that myself. Fortunately my clients have never brought up the touchy subject of interior decorating in multiplayer games, and thus have not yet felt my righteous wrath.

I'm honestly a nice guy, even if I have a habit of feeding whiners to my pack of hungry velociraptors.

That's fine =). I do admit, I do get carried away. However I just can't bring myself to be completely mature in a thread about furniture. It's just too silly.

I never hyped the thread. My first post was a question about when he decided to put furniture in, and the second was a joke about furniture gifts. I haven't really posted that much in this thread.

You guys really are just at the boiling point of an all out flame-war aren't you? Remember when I posted that single post "Achaea Sucks" in the hopes of starting one and it sparked about ten pages of dialogue? Yeah, we even get in flame wars about mundane things. Such as, I don't know, chairs?

Alright boys and girls, I'm starting to sense a kodak moment coming. The love and warmth exuding from the text is starting to sicken me. WE CANNOT HAVE THIS HAPPEN!

And so to refuel the fire, I submit the following:

Matt's furniture is ugly, Matt is color-blind, and you are all paying for his obvious inferior decorating skills. I mean c'mon people - MAPLE dresser with GREEN painted walls? That's just so..declasse.

SUCKERS

Are you just that thick? Janus is mature, unfortunately, and chooses not to argue with someone who is unwilling to talk in a manner suitable for adults.

Have you ever taken a marketing class? This is done everyday. He doesn't have to contort much of anything when the obvious is much easier.

There is no argument. There is just Janus whining about my being "negative". I'm glad he's not willing to continue.

Jesus, did I offend the Imperian Pansy Guild?

Yui Unifex, you are acting like a childish, insufferable troll.

Please, go work on something somebody cares about.

Furniture?   Does ThresholdMurpe have furniture?

Impossible.  It's too difficult to implement so soon after its invention.  I know we've been unable to cross what scientists have dubbed "The Chair Barrier" and have been stuck with only technology for custom floral arrangements, jewelers. etc.  And the color-vs-flower-type technology is clearly in need of tweaking.  Pink sunflowers, my ass.

But chairs?  Inconceivable.

You say 'I'd like to order a custom flower arrangement.'
Alanna says 'Excellent! Would you like a single, bouquet, boutonniere, corsage, or circlet?'

You say 'A bouquet.  It's for Threshold.'
Alanna says 'How wonderful!  Would you like it to be white, red, blue, yellow, pink, purple, orange, black, budding, wilted, or dead?'

You say 'Ooh.  Pink.  I like pink.'
Alanna says 'A splendid choice.  Would you like it to be made of roses, poppies, orchids, sunflowers, violets, daisies, marigolds, carnations, tulips or forget-me-nots?'

You say 'No pansies?  Well, tulips then.'
Alanna smiles as she arranges a bouquet of pink tulips.
Alanna says 'There! a bouquet of pink tulips.  You may buy your order from me now, if you wish.'

buy tulips
You haggle the price down to 41 copper.
You buy a bouquet of pink tulips.
