I just find it interesting that you always say "some posters"
or "certain posters" without mentioning anyone specifically.
I do not understand that myself. I am not trying to start a beef
with you but I just do not appreciate you saying some posters
on here have issues. Because the truth is everyone has issues
to a certain extent. And what you said on this post was shit you
have said to me before.
If someone does have "serious issues" I do not think making
derogatory statements about them is right.
I respect you and your opinion immensely, I just think you have
been coming on here too cocky for someone who is only 21
years old. O.K you have an opinion but just like belly buttons
so does everyone else.
Again do not take this the wrong way,you are cool as hell, but
imo you have been acting like your opinion counts more than
anyone else.
Gyno, sorry if you feel that I was directing my comment towards you, when in fact it was intended for a larger audience than just you...but that is exactly the point. Hopefully a comment like that will cause some introspection, not defensiveness. But the bottom line is that while yes, most people in general do have "issues," not all of them let it affect the way they post.
As for me being cocky and thinking my opinion counts more than anyone elses...that's the first time I've ever been accused of that, to be honest. All I've ever done is given my opinion on certain subjects. I've never forced my opinions on anyone or claimed to be the authority on anything. But if I have an opinion on something and I feel the need to share it, I will. Isn't that one of the points of a forum? So if you can provide examples of my arrogance/cockiness, I'd appreciate it.
And as for the age thing, since when does age determine how credible someone is? I think the fact that you continue to refer to age as a means of measuring how intelligent and insightful one's opinion is shows immaturity and indirect discrimination on your part. If you looked at HinesWard's posts, for example, you probably wouldn't assume that he's a 21-year-old. He posts with class and maturity. But now that we all know he's 21(I think? 20 maybe?), does that make his opinion count any less? Are his posts all of a sudden less insightful because of his age? That's the problem: a lot of times, age discrimination happens before our very eyes, but is never addressed. You yourself just committed it. One should be able to gain respect simply through his thoughts and actions; there shouldn't be an age requirement. How would you feel if some of the respected older posters like OldManTed or CoachLT dismissed your opinions or took them less seriously simply because you were only 25? My guess is you wouldn't appreciate it. Age doesn't matter, knowledge/thoughts and actions do.
This post isn't intend to be an attack on you by any means, so don't be so defensive. I just simply disagree with some of your comments and actions.
Oh, and by the way, I'm 22, not 21.
ucking: :monsters- :nohead:
