This kind of event has been a regular occurrence where I live for years. I might say you’re fortunate to have your assumptions, and while I may be false to assume it is like my situation as elsewhere, just as you two do for yours, playing devil’s advocate, I still feel safer with my assumption. Admittedly my bias, I do not mean to put you on defensive, just explain my position.

I was not intentionally insulting his intelligence, but educating him on the proper way to argue. For whatever reason I was struck by his comment enough to respond, but hardly a test of masculinity.

I am glad you are an educated parent who know many others. Kudos. A majority of the parents I know are blissfully ignorant. So the point stands.

I believe what you saw as hypocrisy was my way of challenging him to argue fairly. I see it as a challenge for listening/reading more than challenging his intelligence. I told him to look in the mirror BECAUSE the first thing he did was attack the speaker. I wished to illustrate how ineffective that was in both communication and open debate.

@mirtzig – I do apologize if you took personal insult, and also that I singled you out when I clearly applied crtiticsms. I do hope you were able to calm yourself enough to see what I was saying. I hope in this effort truly we may show this was not some battle of masculine pride.

yes because this is clearly a game any good parent would rush out to buy for their children.

Straw man is not applicable. Please reread your definition since you so kindly provided it, and try the analysis again.

Logic: the glorious refuge of the .edu page creators, and the eternal shame of the .edu page parroters :(

ps Someone please email the Witch-King of Angmar and ask him if he’s mad at me – he doesn’t reply to any of mine.

I’ve been in GameStop many a times (too much my hubby says for God sakes they know my name) and there are plenty of soccer mom’s and non-gamers who ask is this good, is this not and can I play a demo. People are not stupid and they are not going to waste 50 bucks on a brand new game for something that is going to blow. Especially in this day and age. Hell hardcore gamers go into GameStop and have long as* conversations about what games are good and what is not. I’ve seen people in line with a sorry game and hard core people come up to them and say I wouldn’t do that if I was you. If your looking for a shooter go this way not this way. The mechanics are all off. Save your dry wall.

anonranreader and mirtzig why don’t you both just compare the size of your units and move on. Really. I find it funny anonranreader your upset or commenting about mirtzig attacking someone’s intelligence and you do the EXACT same thing. Doesn’t that make you a hypocrite no matter how eloquent you state it? Just wondering.

Damn these amateurish, idiotic writers and reviewers getting media attention for questioning insosequential things that people already know way better than they do.
