No, you put them on ignore, turn notifications off, and then move on with your life.
You don’t stoop to their level and then imply you’re somehow better than them; that you hold some sort of higher responsibility to defend everyone that may have been “attacked” as justification for what you do.
That fact is that the mudslinging has been going on for so long now that I can’t discern who started it. All I know is that months after this thread should have died, the same people that were in it to begin with are still mudslinging, but the only difference is that one side insists that they’re in the right by running in circles justifying their actions.
I don’t ignore anyone and if someone is spreading lies or misrepresenting my arguments I want to know about it. Your proposed solution is to let them continue spreading lies and misinformation without getting any word of the truth in.
And they are the ones making this “discussion” go in cycles.
I think you need to reread the thread to see who started the insult war.
I’ve had that happen to me as well. It’s likely it happened to other people too. I’ve seen it happen on numerous threads on many different topics, anytime there’s a topic that people feel strongly about. Should I assume that shows the type of attitude those against dual spec have towards actual discussion?
That’s exactly what I say about you. I’ve said it many times. I’m confident that anyone who has read your posts sees you for what you are.
That’s not true and I’m sure you know it. No one who supports dual spec ever suggested or agreed to a 24 hour cool down. It certainly wasn’t what was first suggested. Dual spec was first suggested as it was added in Wrath with no additional limitations. Due to your and others concerns some suggested adding the limitation to just changing specs in a major city while others to just adding a cool down. Eventually most agreed to do both, having a 30 minute cool down and specs only changed in a major city. Then we agreed to an hour cool down and only changed in a major city. Finally for the first time Ziryus suggested a 3 hour cool down which I thought was excessive but agreed to also. Then Basil suggested a 24 hour cool down for no reason I could find and people disagreed to that. No one raids for 24 hours straight. Why would anyone need a 24 hour cool down to stop abuse of dual spec in raids? It just shows how unreasonable and irrational you are.
Here’s a fact. I’ve often found posts, quoted them, and proved you lied. You’ve never found posts to prove you’re telling the truth and I’m lying. All you’d have to do is find someone who supports dual spec that suggested a 24 hour cool down before basil did in his CC thread. Over 6k posts in this thread. Surely you can find someone who supports dual spec that suggested we add a 24 hour cool down. That would prove me wrong. There’s a search engine on the top of this page. You can put “24 hour cool down” and select search just this topic so it should be easy to find if you’re not lying.
This entire debate has like 3 threads on the go, two of which are still very active, and you guys constantly refer back to this thread in the other ones (since at the end of the day it’s basically the same people debating the topic).
These posts are from 2 days ago. Stop trying to act like me coming back in here to read the things you were referencing is some gratuitous act of necroing.
Anyways not sure what I expected, I didnt find any actual valid responses from you or anyone else rebutting our points arguments for dual spec, and I’m sorry but I found the 2 pages worth of insults quoted from you after you demanded everyone debate things civilly to be hilarious. Since, you know, more of the same from you in that thread.
Its kind of amusing in ways, ultimately the most damaging thing for you is to just be confronted with your own words.
Yeah, this guy actually misquoted you here, whether or not it was intentional idk but you’re kinda blowing it massively out of proportion imo calling it character assassination. But, fair’s fair, dude was wrong
The truth if who started the mud flinging contest for starters?
The truth of who is intentionally misquoted and misrepresenting other people’s arguments for their own agenda?
The truth of the fact that dual spec goes directly against tbc design goals (not exact design, but the goals behind the design) which quotes from the devs back then have been given to support as evidence to that truth?
There’s plenty of truths to find. Which one are you looking for?
