There's only so much one can do to counteract someone's hubris. Can't win 'em all.

Using jokes/memes to react/answer to other comments is not shitposting,

You are obviously shitposting.

You ignored substantive comments by the membership, and post memes instead.

It's funny how you came here apparently looking for higher ideals, to expand human knowledge, to share your great insight with the world.... yet you've spent more effort on posting cartoons than engaging all the difficult stuff.

No one's make you do this Isaac - only you, and your ego.

Using jokes/memes to react/answer to other comments is not shitposting, it can more easily convey emotion through a chat.

Me showing that your removal of my account's ability to ignore people does not limit my brain's ability to do the same is to show that that petty move meant nothing.
I brought facts here and, other than a couple pleasant comments, I got insults covered as "FaIr CoNsTrUcTiVe CrItIcIsM" or just straight on directed insults such as "You like something said from Person X which I DON'T like? [vomit gif]", which sound pretty direct if you ask me. I'd like, instead, to see anyone trying to tackle even ONE argument from my project instead of... whatever this is.



In addition: doing no research? Are you kidding me?
I don't need to do to an excavation to (in this case) find out what Ayn said by opening rocks and finding a fossilized book. How far back must it be pushed to be "doing your own research"?
You can't read books because you're reading what other people researched by their own. You can't read scientific papers because other people did the work needed to find out le stuff.
Your only option is to do every single experiment yourself, discover everything and build a time machine to ask stuff to the people in question directly when they were still alive.



P.S.: saying that /saying X/ is "a retarded thing to do" is not the same as calling someone a "retard". It may have a different weight in english or a different meaning in this forum, but that's how we use it where we live.
I said that I didn't know if it was a TOS breaking action and didn't care both because I didn't remember and because it needed to be said.
What I said is true and nobody can actually deny that, to do such is to say that you can't actually learn anything from other people because "you must figure out everything by yourself" or something as dumb.
If my account gets deleted because of something like this, as I already said in our DMs at the first report, I would be more than happy to be booted off.
You all hold no true power over me and to silence me instead of addressing my points is the utmost proof that you can not rebut them in any way at all.



This is Isaac, expert in being right and being perfectly capable of explaining why I'm right but getting negative responses because people don't like neither to be wrong nor to fight their dogmas, closing the message (idk how to close a post and I don't care).



Become a Circus Clown​


What if your job was to make everyone laugh and smile? How sweet would that be? Are you wondering what type of job you might have where your entire goal is to be funny, to make people laugh, and to make people happy?

It’s a circus clown. Clowns play gags and tricks to be funny. They walk around in big floppy shoes, paint their faces in silly makeup, don ridiculously colored afro wigs, honk big red noses, and wear bright, baggy clothes. Then they do silly things like squirt water out of flowers, cram too many clowns in a tiny car, throw pies in people faces, or fall on their silly clown butts. In general, they just act silly and foolish. Plus they get paid for it.

I don't know about the reason for the ban as I (and others) aren't privy to whatever transpired between him and yourselves as Mods in DMs but it's a pity we never got beyond the "Is too! - Is not!" stage.

I always see banning as a failure to get through to them. I think that we should be able to rise above their flaws in thinking and behaviour.

As I now understand it, the ban is actually just a temporary suspension, anyway.

@Dragan Glas

You are to be commended for your desire to help others understand, your limitless patience is beyond impressive and has always been so. I indicated in a previous post that the ban would be permanent, that's my fault and I apologise for the confusion. When I issued it I made it temporary (7 days in this case) in the hopes that the user would reform a bit. I anticipate that this will not be the case, however it's a moot point now because the ban is upgraded to permanent on different grounds. Those ground being attempted ban evasion in the form of a sock account.

So, I'm sorry, but neither you nor anyone else will be able to continue with this user.

This must seem like magic to him given how thin his grasp of the world seemed.

Ahh but they can always go and add to the rowdy debate in the comments channel of his video..... /crickets

Greetings,

I had noted his posts throughout the thread and had just put it down to the usual pattern of those who come here certain they're right.

I always see banning as a failure to get through to them. I think that we should be able to rise above their flaws in thinking and behaviour.

As I said, it's a pity.

This ban seemed like it came too early. My favorite thing about this forum is that they always give the trolls enough rope to hang themselves, and this one did not get enough rope (in my opinion).

Well he tried to get around the ban the forum software was not amused by him doing this.

Yeah nearly 15 pages of nothing but shyte in the form of "I'm Isaac and I'm an expert at being right about everything" - it was noted many pages back that this thread wasn't going anywhere, by more than one member. The temp ban was justified, he could have come back upon expiry but attempted ban evasion speaks volumes as to a member's personality.

We do not (and never have) allowed sock/proxy/alt accounts and we aren't going to start now.

With that, this thread is now closed, since no one knew what his 'point' was supposed to be anyway. If anyone thinks they've discovered what his 'point' was and wishes to continue the discussion, a new thread can be started by anyone.
