Quoting SERA_2005: I didnt at any point say that i was offended i would apreciate it if you could stop attemping to talk for me.I was just asking you why you persist with this constant arguing towards anyone who doesnt 100% agree with everything you say.. |
Sera if you were not offended, then why did you comment on my post? How can you say that I was arguing - I wasn't arguing with anything - I made a comment about the post. Who exactly was I arguing with when I made that comment?   The only person arguing was YOU 
Quoting SERA_2005: This is isnt called Aenigma class! Maybe its time you realised that people have things to say which you might not like but that doesnt stop people saying them no matter how many times you try and belittle them... |
This perception is entirely of your own making. I love to debate with people who have different opinions. Did I belittle you? Are you so easily belittled?

Please don't insult me, my point is that you attempt to belittle people by discrediting their arguments.

Of course I do! If discrediting your argument belittles you then your argument was weak in the first place! The point of debate is to win an argument!!
I love it when people can beat me in an argument - it is really great. People like you just name call or cry - it is very sad

I don't think disagreeing with someone is insulting them. I have rarely seen AEnigma insult anyone who didn't deserve it....ie...insult her first.

perhaps i wasnt clear, i did not mean that disagreement was insulting if i thought that i wouldnt be here! i was however saying that making people look small is insulting.

I wasnt taking about myself personally i was talking about the way you behave on the site generally.The point of debate is not to win! Its to exchange ideas,not a game of win or lose.You saying it like that even makes the act of debate look small and pathetic when you lower it to such a short and incomplete definition.
And that fact that you are telling me i name call well that is just something else,i am not the one that does that! i am saying that i don't like it when that happens on the forum.

Maybe I have not read all the posts closely enough, but honestly, I don't see any belittling. I am on the Belittling Brute Squad and had any belittling occured I would have been notified.

Quoting zbrct: Quoting libralady:
I was once informed that the Zaman newspaper was no more than a pornographic paper, and regarded at the same level as the tabloid press i.e our Sun, Daily Mirror. They breed sensationalism by reporting untruths and exagerating events.
|
Unfortunately, you were misinfomed because Zaman is a highly circulated serious and conservative newspaper. |
Actually Zaman is the only NON-pornographic paper. You must have meant "Hurriyet".
