Schappert: 360 has the power to run MGS4

Blerk I tried to let this comment section die…

I am not getting involved. But it’s true, I’d love to be involved.

You know, I have a nasty feeling that every single one of the longest comments threads on here has either Me or Shatner involved.

Admins… what’s the highest number of comments on an article so far?

Shatner – perhaps you should back your opinions up with credentials before you call other people liars and worse. If you develop games then say so ( and even then I’m guessing there’s /probably/ a better way to voice your opinions )- if you don’t then shut the fuck up. Regardless – there’s a difference between opinion and lies.

Internet morals? the only difference between internet conversations and real life ones is that you’d have been punched in the face several times for saying what you did here in the “real world*”. People are people regardless of whether they’re on the internet or not. I’m guessing you’re a cunt offline too. I’d guess it was aspergers but I’m going to put a tenner on plain old sociopath for an even bet.

*you know the one where people have jobs? Your posting rate suggests you don’t live in that one.

BraveArse,

I have very strong feelings against the notion that WHO says something makes a difference to the validity of WHAT they say.

Personally, I see something said and it makes no difference to me who says it. Something isn’t more truthful or less truthful if uttered by one person than if it was uttered by another.

I don’t need to justify who I am for my comments to hold any weight. If you can tear your emotive interpretations away from this and simply look at the detail of the statement given (including some from some chap who made some Metal Gear game or something) you’ll find that my statements hold a lot more water and have been far better substantiated than most others.

Of course, I’m in a fortunate position where I don’t have to choose a side to support based on HOW something was said. In certain instances I’ve enough knowledge to KNOW whether someone is making up rubbish or not – no matter how politely or aggressively they may say it. If you’re not so well equipped than I can see how you may have to resort to picking a side by more arbitrary means.

By all means, BraveArse, argue for internet manners as much as you like. But doing so in the form of an attack on someone you don’t know and calling them a cunt makes you nothing more than a hypocrite.

Bit of an own-goal, don’t you think?

Just so you know, I have as much of a high regard for hypocrites as I do for bullshitters.

Have a nice day!

I’m even more confused now having read through this thread.

Shatner you gave up the right to be treated politely early on in this thread. So no – no hypocrisy here.

“I have very strong feelings against the notion that WHO says something makes a difference to the validity of WHAT they say.”

So because /you say/ something is a fact then it’s a fact – someone who has a different opinion is, however, a biased moronic bullshitting lying plank amongst other things gleaned from your “witty ripostes” further up this page.

“Something tells me David has never ever programmed a modern videogame.”

Like I say – back it up or shut up. You imply you have the knowledge – I think you’re bullshitting. And according to your logic, I guess that’s a fact because I trust my own opinions more than I do yours.

Feel free to reply – I have gathered so far that you have an inability to leave the next comment blank. I however have added you to my mental ignore list with the many other obvious twats I have come across on the internet.

“Shatner you gave up the right to be treated politely early on in this thread. So no – no hypocrisy here.”

Where did I make demands of others to be treated politely?

You, on the other hand, have jumped in to this, you’ve not bothered with the actual topic being discussed, you’ve just chosen a side and, in one breath, chastised me for not being polite to someone whilst, in the other breath insulted me and called me a cunt.

That, sir, is hypocrisy.

Based on your understanding of hypocrisy and your inability to see points proven in black and white simply because they substantiate what I happen to have said rather than the horse you chose to back, I don’t particularly feel compelled to jump through your little hoops. Based on evidence of your comments, you’ll only see what you choose to see and ignore the rest (mental ignore list – OH NOES!)

Last time I checked, I wasn’t answerable to anonymous hypocrites, bullshitters, pirates and liars on the internet.

I’ll tell you this for free: I know I’m right. And that’s good enough for me. If you can’t handle that then that’s your problem.

I do so enjoy people who choose wilful ignorance because they either can’t accept facts that go against their guesswork and bias or because they’re not presented in the appropriate sugar coating they want.

I’ve never really seen how declaring (wilful) ignorance is meant to be seen as a commendable debating gesture.

And, DUH, yes, if you make a comment about me then I’m likely to reply. It’s basic social behaviour. You’re not some internet mastermind by addressing me directly and then predicting I’ll reply!

Really, a lot of you need to stop giving yourselves so much credit for stating the obvious!

Oh I have no problem with thinking you’re a bullshitter and knowing without doubt that you’re sociopathic.

/ends

My my, you certainly practice those manners that you preach! Such flattering labels you’ll fling around!

OK, you say I’m a bullshitter. Please disprove any of the information I have stated.

I guess it should be easy for someone of your caliber

Christ, is this still going? I’ve been down the pub.

Whoops! I think I left my “talk down at easily excitable people on the internet” postbot script running.
