have you ever noticed that perhaps some people will lurk around an argument and not bother posting because he has nothing to input because of the sheer stupidness of the argument itself?

yes, that's exactly what i wrote about. it applies to your "witty" and oh-so-original post perfectly. your opinion of the argument and whether or not you think it's stupid is completely irrelevant if you're not involved in the argument. from your standpoint, you can choose to do a few things: ignore it and move on, jump in while it's still going and call it stupid/pointless (thus involving you in the argument and making your opinion relevant), or... WAIT UNTIL IT'S FIZZLED OUT AND THEN JUMP IN WITH A SUPER DUPER WITTY "HAHA I'M SO SMART HERE ON THE SIDELINES YOU CRETINS" douchebag post.

"that guy" chooses the third option every fucking time. it's safe pussy bullshit.

i didn't actually write that post in response to you; i wrote it on o-u-t-w-o-r-l-d a few weeks ago and copy&pasted it. that should probably tell you something

Seriously, a few guys find a member annoying. Does this really require an multi-page long arguement? Is there really nothing else to discus?

the issue really boils down to jumping on a bandwagon of being a dick to a guy who doesn't deserve most of the shit he gets. i have no problems getting into that and defending the underdog

You are proving Index right you know, especially with what is in bold. You are implying that because you didn't say anything, that you are better than everyone else on the thread (Pretty much all the speakers were engaged in the argument), but I really dont know if you intended to imply that or not...

I was just saying I didn't take part because i didn't have anything to say. Sorry, next time I'll jump in and say that the whole argument is retarded, instead of lurking and keeping out because I had nothing to say in defense of one side or the other.

EDIT:

At the time of the post it didn't look like it had fizzled out. In fact it still seems to be going on a bit.

i can barely tell when things are posted because of my connection, but your post didn't attempt to break up the argument or inform us about why it was so pointless and stupid, but instead served as a way to make you look "above it all" like a douche

the thing i pasted was just a relevant mini-rant; i don't think it's actually worth making a big deal about to be honest. but your sort of post does seem to happen over and over again

If nobody acted like a douche then everyone would be a kind, upstanding, model citizen of SP. And that's no fun.

there is a right time and place for being a douche

when everyone is already in a negative mood, it's just a flaccid attempt at kicking everyone while they're down

Oh I'm not justifying his post. I'm just expressing how enjoyable these things are for me.

Just to clarify, this is now an argument about the general reaction that Grimm received and how it's uncalled for, not whether or not Grimm was obnoxious... right?


it was uncalled for because he wasn't even being inflammatory, shitposting, getting in anyone's face, spamming, ect etc

he wasn't doing anything wrong at all.

it was just his reputation following him around and people taking whatever opportunity they could scrape up to have an excuse for flaming him

oh, that joke was SO unfunny! WOW, you're a fucking pretentious retard. tryhard cunt. hey guys, he's a tryhard! c'mon, let's all gather round and make multiple pages of attacking every reply he makes with buzzwords! tryhard, tryhard, tryhard, tryhard! hahaha! look at the tryhard!

schoolyard children bullshit.

If acting rude and stubborn is a bad thing, then why haven't you guys pulled me off to the side to have an intervention with me yet?

Hey Arch, there's something we've been meaning to talk to you about...

I thought asking everybody to stop being so butthurt at each other would qualify as trying to break up the argument.

This thread is suddenly full of blatant ass-douchery. All I can smell is the douching of asses. It's a foul smell.

that's kind of the same thing, not a real attempt addressing why the specific issue shouldn't be talked about anymore, but just an obvious "hey i see there's an argument. i'm not in it, but obviously i'm in the superior position, because the simple fact that they're arguing makes them all stupid/uncivilized/negative adjective."

have you guys ever noticed that whenever there's a big off-topic argument in a thread, as soon as gets drawn out and finally starts to settle, there always has to be this one smarmy, "i'm better than all of you", spectating douchebag who comes in and posts something like "look at what you guys did, you seriously argued about so and so? Pah, you silly idiots. How petty! Look at yourselves! That argument was so pointless and you are just silly, here's a sarcastic and joking exaggeration of what happened." Holy shit, shut the fuck up you smug dickhead. Every fucking time. "itt: silly people argued a silly thing. (Wow, I'm so much better than everyone even though I wasn't even here when this thing happened. I have no side or real opinion, just smug meta-commentary about the act of arguing itself.)" It's such a ridiculously safe way to look better than literally everyone who participated in a disagreement by saying that they were stupid just for disagreeing and making a big deal over it. It's so safe that it happens every fucking time by different dickheads around the world. They all had the douchey idea to grab that chance at looking better than everyone who just finished actually racking their brains writing the best arguments they could about something that concerned them. It takes no intelligent thought and is completely undeserved; it's an obvious opportunity to not even kick people while they're down, but to give the illusion that you are kicking them while they're down.
