Since forever.
I don't mind opinions! But he told me further up that I lack knowledge and further down he is speaking for "us".
Speaking with authority on a new platform can on occasion mean that you might first tell people who you are. And not pontificate as a new leader of any pack.
Clearer now?
"Since Forever"
So you do believe that numbers of posts make your opinion more valid than anyone else.
Yes, much clearer now! Thanks for the confirmation.
NO. It seems you don't want to understand!
I don't have any problem with an opinion, BUT with somebody who claims to speak for "we".
You are doing this deliberately?
When you end a thread with a question (i.e. "Clearer Now?") it begs a response. Your statement of "Since Forever" was direct response to my statement about numbers of posts making your opinion more valid than anyone else. Your statement confirmed my point and I was only thanking you for your confirmation.
To respond in writing is deliberate by definition, but I am not trying to provoke anyone.
Yes you are (!!) by deliberately leaving out my assertion that I don't mind other people's opinions, but I DO mind that people claim to speak for some majority (the "we" or "us" here). It is a commonly used (not particularly clever imho) technique to draw lines where "we" are right - and typically "you" are not.
You are cherry picking something I never said (I never mentioned that I disliked other people's opinion or did I now?)
