deranger Posted January 3, 2012 Share Posted January 3, 2012 (edited) There is absolutely no negativity in his statement. He's saying it's on par, by default, with the level of this hack. If he were bad mouthing it, he could have said something like "anything is better than LoC" or something like that. Isn't that essentially what he said. HF's words: nothing < LoC anything = -nothing therefore HF's words: anything > LoC also, I'd love meeting new people, they can't be any dumber than Celice.

It can't be any worse than playing video games in Japanese. Implies that playing video games in Japanese is so bad that anything is better than it, including: shitting on a pillow and rubbing the fecal matter into ones eyes is better than playing games in Japanese, or spiked vibrator to the anus is better than playing games in Japanese.

Celice Posted January 3, 2012 Share Posted January 3, 2012 (edited) "It can't be any worse than ice-cream." If ice-cream is incredibly awesome, 90/100 on an awesome scale, that only means that whatever is being compared with the ice-cream is above or at a 90. You're the only one injecting a malevolent intent, until that dude says he meant it in a negative way :/ It's actually a bit worse on you, because you actively went after his post and brought it here, making you more of an active transgressor than he was ._. also, I'd love meeting new people, they can't be any dumber than Celice. Not only is that a bit mean, it's also uncalled for. I'm sorry :( Edited January 3, 2012 by Celice Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Celice Posted January 3, 2012 Share Posted January 3, 2012 (edited) Excepting that he made an actual negative comment, based on no real merit, and actually contradicts the truth about whether I'm dumb or not :P I guess I could jump on the non-sense wagon...

deranger Posted January 3, 2012 Share Posted January 3, 2012 (edited) how do you not get it? I actually don't know or care about your intelligence level. What I did was took HF's statement, and put in replaced the beta HF wanted to try of the other game (which he would have no idea if it was in the top 10%) with people, replaced goodness with intelligence, and replaced LoC with you. And you're telling me you're hurt, but HF's statement was in no way offensive towards LoC? And merit has nothing to do with whether or not Hf's statement was offensive, though if I legitimately thought you were stupid, would you be okay with me going around the forum posting that?

Celice Posted January 3, 2012 Share Posted January 3, 2012 (edited) I didn't say I was hurt :e And I wouldn't care. Though it'd be nice if needless hostility wasn't perpetuated where none existed.

Chocolate Kitty Posted January 3, 2012 Author Share Posted January 3, 2012 So do you not care or would you like to not have needless hostilityperpetuated where none existed ? THANK YOU Basically Serisu, you kinda jumped where you weren't needed and started spouting your mouth in my topic when the issue A: wasn't a big deal to begin with, no one was upset, and B: was already resolved. If you have anything else to say to me, PM it, don't spam my topic anymore with your crap. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Celice Posted January 3, 2012 Share Posted January 3, 2012 Camtech is right, it looks like. We all have to be careful about reading what is said, and understanding it not through what is meant, but through what we try and guess is meant. Which brings into good light the same problem initially of calling that comparison in the beginning something that it isn't. That's what began my whole commentary :) So do you not care or would you like to not have needless hostilityperpetuated where none existed ? I don't care because I don't have a say in what others do. If you'd like to continue in a PM feel free, 'cause I don't think this thread is about me :p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dr.Sholes Posted January 3, 2012 Share Posted January 3, 2012 By saying it can't be any worse you're implying that LoC is the worst. If I said, "Well, it can't be any more beautiful than Sholes." I'm implying that Sholes is the most beautiful. I'm not trying to start anything but this is getting to be a really dumb argument to watch so I figured I'd throw in my ten cents. i honestly should watch my words more carefully if they can cause such bickering... i mean i don't think i'm importent enough here to cause such bickering over.

Narga_Rocks Posted January 3, 2012 Share Posted January 3, 2012 how do you not get it? I actually don't know or care about your intelligence level.

And merit has nothing to do with whether or not Hf's statement was offensive, though if I legitimately thought you were stupid, would you be okay with me going around the forum posting that? Except the problem here is that Celice was the only person who perceived the statement in a remotely positive way. You made things clear that you believed the statement was saying negative things. Then you "took HF's statement, and put in replaced the beta HF wanted to try of the other game (which he would have no idea if it was in the top 10%) with people, replaced goodness with intelligence, and replaced LoC with you". He would then, logically and obviously, be hurt by what was an implied negative statement. The fact he believes the statement should be read differently would obviously not blind him to what you mean when you use the statement. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HF Makalov Fanboy Kai Posted January 4, 2012 Share Posted January 4, 2012 can i clear this up by admiting i was being negative when i did post that comment in the other topic? i mean, this isn't like the time on FE planet where i got abuse thrown at me because i came up with a theory that Soren was a girl in the beta version of FE9 until an Admin stepped in and calmed the place down. my negative opinion of the beta patch shouldn't deserve to be defended, let alone talked about anymore then it has to be. on a question related to the hack, what is lee's sprite gonna look like when he promotes? i mean he's already using Lloyd's swordmaster sprite.

HF Makalov Fanboy Kai Posted January 4, 2012 Share Posted January 4, 2012 If i say sorry about that, it'll be a half assed sorry that i don't really mean. I'll say sorry when this hack and finished and blows my mind out of the water with how amazing it will be, but as of now, i dislike the beta.

I was, however, explaining how it could be taken negatively despite what it was attempting. Not every single post of mine is a "mod-post". Oh, and what's wrong with the post above mine? Okay, there's an image in there, but there is also a contributing part of the post. can i clear this up by admiting i was being negative when i did post that comment in the other topic? I think that was obvious to everyone except possibly Celice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
