I think I've been fairly successful 🙂

I don't wish to change you. I am not dumb enough to think I can. And I am not at all certain you even need changing.
I prefer to change my reaction to people instead. That's all.

You can't argue this point can you?!

Why are choosing to engage divegeester?

Engage ....again....subjective.

He replied to something I posted. I made a quick reply back. To me...engaging is more in depth, more investing, than a reply or two.

You are so particular. Sheesh.🙄

So repeatedly complaining about me like this is you trying "to change [your] reaction" to me?

Stuff you complain about in others doesn't seem to apply to you so much. Is it a stance you take deliberately?

You are right. Once again.

So I will sign off now and go back to ignoring you. This never goes anywhere.

Thanks for yet another pleasant "discussion."

You know there is no comparison to me, on a rare occasion, voicing my unhappiness at the interrogating tone you take with me every opportunity you get, versus your relentless, daily complaints against GB's posts.

That lasted about 6 minutes!

Taken as a proportion of your posts ~ and in so far as when your posts are addressed to me ~ I would say your complaints against me could easily qualify as relentless. But I welcome criticism. And I welcome disagreement ~ although I don't think I ever stoop to some of the nasty invective that flies around here (Seitse's, robbie's or Grampy Bobby's for example). I confront posters for their behaviour and respond to what they say head on, so, therefore, I must accept that I will be confronted too.

But what if you really are a huge pair of judgemental buttocks and you simply dont know it. Almost every single one of your texts is composed of an odious self righteousness and a marked proclivity to belittle other people. Your hollow assertion of welcoming criticism is demonstrably false because when you have been confronted with how you conduct yourself you seek to justify your actions as some kind of self appointed inquisitor general. You are almost incapale of making people feel good about themselves as your entire posting history here testifies.

Your entire posting history.

So you can't cite a post where I "self-appointed" myself something or other and then used it to "justify something else?

Isn't every single person who decides to join the fray of a message board "self-appointed" for all intents and purposes?

If by "inquisitor general" you mean (...and mean to signal your disapproval of...) me being a poster who is not afraid to express disagreement or to ask questions that get to the heart of a contradiction or inconsistency, and won't be easily put off by dodges and deflections ~ then fair enough.

Not dumb enough ... but dumb any way.
