If its his ethics to "steel" stuff and post it here, you should not judge or question him. Its his post, not yours. You certainly dont have to read his.[/QUOTE]LOL! Kathen I fail to see how you are in any position to criticise me speaking my mind when you are quite happy to speak yours against me on the issue. Apply your reasoning to your posts to me in this thread and you'll find a "do as I say, not as I do" situation. Your points against me have amplified what was simply one post after a sea of Arvon threads. Doctor heal thyself. |

Here we go again Yorick , Like I said, It was his post to begin with, and you picked on him for it. Im picking on you for replying with your negativity. Whats with the semantics anyway. Your articulate come backs dont inpress me. You started the problem with your reply to him. Pointing the finger back at me does not excuse you of your berating someone for not quoting the proper person for a joke he found the internet. Oh wait, It was only the first time compared to his endless posts, so its ok, right? Doctor heal THYself... [ 02-10-2003, 06:50 PM: Message edited by: LordKathen ]

A mate of mine used to say:
If you shamelessly copy one person - its plagarism, If you shamelessly copy two people - its research, If you shamelessly copy an entire genre - its homage.

1. Stop the off topic bickering, please.
2. Remember to cut some of the longer quotes, they get incredibly cumbersome and Z isn't fond of 'quote pyramids'. 3. Arvon, your jokes are fine, but if you DO have a credit to give, please do, as we're asking that of people who repost articles of serious nature - or just put the thing in quotes or italics or something [img]smile.gif[/img] 4. I'm off to bed, so let's keep it civil, shall we? *sets [img]graemlins/choc.gif[/img] to watch*

You've blown this out of all proportion with a vendetta-like persistence. Leave it alone Kathen. |
