I came across page 46 of some old RHP thread from '05. I didn't look at any other page but that one and...it's just so stupid. It's a debate over abortion that seems to have gotten sidetracked by petty bickering over semantics.
I read the first two or three posts and thought: how much freaking time did these blokes waste on a post after post of childish crap that they no one even remembers? What a legacy to leave behind.
Just a sobering thought if I ever find myself in these stupid exchanges.
@vivify saidNemesio is missed. no1marauder too. Bosse de Nage, as well, certainly. LemonJello doesn't post enough; when he's not around, sonship likes to talk about how he ran rings around LemonJello this time or that time; but when LemonJello is around, sonship doesn't run rings around him. vistesd is another poster I miss, despite the fact he called me impudent once [with justification, I seem to rercall]. Or maybe it was telerion who did that. He is also missed. bbar was an interesting poster, a bit in the DeepThought mould.

Now is the time to understand more, so that we may fear less.

ready, eager and straining at the chains to rebuke,
i must remind myself that the things i see that need to be set straight are merely an illusion that my own mind has wrought...

I never boasted how I ran rings around LemonJello.
I never boasted how I "RAN RINGS" around poster LemonJello.
Look, you want to tell everybody I did something, tell them how I just now wrote that YOU are full of crap.
@sonship saidYou boasted that you had run rings around him when you'd supposedly demonstrated that, according to his philosophical beliefs, he couldn't tell the difference between a cockroach and a human being. You reckoned you'd had him dancing around. You'd had him stumped. You'd dismantled his arguments. And you did this when he'd not been around for so long that it seemed as if he'd left the site.

@vivify saidIMO, the quality of the argumentation was much much higher back then than it is now.

This forum's now filled with a bunch of posters who can barely spell the word "argumentation".

@philokalia saidThat is fun indeed.
Fun note: No1Marauder is still around and a big persona in the Debates forum last I checked.

@fmf saidTWhitehead was also in former times a formidable debater, though perhaps not to the thread mentioned in the OP.

Perhaps he had just had enough of it here, I expect many of will have that moment one day.

A lot of exaggeration, wishful thinking, assuming the worst.
I don't recall strutting around assuring posters that LemonJello had been trounced by my arguments.
Settle it.
Produce the post you are talking about. Otherwise, we have seen how your memory works.

I have asked FMF to produce this post where I bragged that LemonJello was so badly refutted by me.
Now FMF is slick. Watch him. He may subtly refine and refine the original charge. This is his sneaky backpedaling. He may refine his accusation until he can produce something that seems somewhat appropriate.
Watch out for that.
