Not condescending at all. Maybe watch the video where it wasn't just Cu who found a drop, but another member...a stranger to him, that he met while looking and they shared the drop. Oh, no, can't do that...
nothing is hard for me here, a few overly sensitive people dont bother me at all
and why should I watch that vid again, nothing in it contradicts anything I have said
edit: spelling
I see some oversensitive people who are also hypocrites, but not the people you refer to.
Actually, if you watched the video at all you'd see why you are so wrong and disagreed with. But, go on insulting people and keeping up this little farce.

It's just a theory, I hope you dont get bent out of shape over it.
And earlier...

So which is it? Because I say "mute" at the end of every message, or because I go by "Wintermute?" I'm not bent out of shape or anything, but you just contradicted yourself.... Search for other threads on where the handle comes from. (cyberpunk is feminine now... but if you want further background, do a google for "wintermute crusades knight" for where Gibson may have gotten his inspiration)

Not to someone who is colorblind... But you're right, it might not have been the best argument. But I still claim that it's still a valid point, because you claim to not have insulted anyone...
ihavenopantson wrote:So you dont know who Im talking about when I say brown-nosers, so I havent really insulted anyone.
You've insulted me. I'm sure others feel insulted by your comments as well...
ihavenopantson wrote:I already gave examples of such behaviour earlier in this thread.
the worst case of it was in the revelation 2 thread.
I have yet to see anything condescending regarding going to a drop. Discouraging? Maybe. Condescending? Nope... Unless it's towards someone accusing Cu of something.
'mute (because it looks more like magenta with the intensity bit set than violet, which is an ANSI color. Therefore, it's geeky fun)

How is it a feminine thing to do? I assumed earlier that mute was a guy. Probably because I know plenty of guys who sign their name at the bottom of everything [email, blog, forum etc.]

Yay a fight thread!
I have nothing of importance to add, but I'll post anyway! (It keeps my post count up).
maybe it's mut-e as in mutie. Like an X-man! (I kid) But I never thought you were female. Going strictly by the screen-name its pretty much gender ambiguous. Now that I think about it people probably assume I'm male.
... I don't know why I'm here. Or why I read every page of this thread and felt the compulsion to post.
*sigh* I need a better hobby.
