Kafei Posted September 11, 2018 Posted September 11, 2018 A thread I participated was closed due because I essentially shared legitimate science being done in a science forum. This site is ridiculous.
swansont Posted September 11, 2018 Posted September 11, 2018 As I said, the thread was closed because you aren't following the rules. These rules have been explained to you more than once. Do you have a question about our rule concerning relying on links?
Kafei Posted September 11, 2018 Author Posted September 11, 2018 What rule was broken? As far as I can discern, I've broken not a single rule.

It is not the responsibility of the Moderators to read rules to you which you already agree to when creating your account. I recommend you review the Guidelines. You will find the your answer there.

Myopia is definitely biasing the content of many posts lately. I'll also throw in that any discussion suffers when any of the participants adopts a must-win-the-debate attitude that precludes them from recognizing competing points and good arguments. Kafei, your style suffers from this a lot, and while you think it makes you victorious, it just frustrates others that they continually have to keep pointing to what they said two minutes ago, which you ignored in favor of waving your hands and repeating your same refuted arguments. It's difficult to know if you choose to do this consciously or not. The results are the same, so what does it matter? You're ignoring points that don't agree with you, which amounts to soapboxing, which is just one of the rules you broke.

Citing links to support an ongoing discussion is alright, but insisting people read outside links without discussing the content in the thread is against the rules too. There's just no way anyone should have to browse through the dozens of (dubious or otherwise) Youtube links to qualify themselves for the discussion on this board.

Although it can and has been pointed out to you that all those are, are simply philosophical opinions on some philosophical research, and that what you actually claimed was not actually said, this is a thread started by you on your perception that the mods were biased. And according to the rules anyway, that subject is now off topic and closed. So we are discussing your perception that the mods are/were biased? Perhaps in actual fact, if you could accept that you perhaps were/are biased, for your total out right dismissal of simple known facts, in favour of your own prejudices then we maybe able to continue. Perhaps you should read Phil's post again, and stop trying to make up your own rules, or unjust, unreal interpretations of those rules based on your own prejudices. 12 minutes ago, Kafei said: Maybe if you actually read that block of text, you'd realize I did answer you. No, you pointed me to a block of text, when I asked for a specific content re any non existent evidence. You were/are obliged to answer me. Quote What point? He said absolutely nothing in specific, he just made a whole bunch of baseless accusations. And they all applied to yourself and your inability to accept that you may be wrong, and your obvious "must win" attitude, even to the extent of ignoring valid evidence and arguments, invalidating your wrong stance.

So let's reverse roles for a moment. Let's say I put a hundred links in a comment that refuted your point. Would you watch every one of them start to finish before commenting further? Quite frankly, I doubt it and that's the reason for the rule. Besides that, being a zealot fails for a refusal to listen. Being a martyr won't win the day by appealing to sympathy either. Fail x2 1
Strange Posted September 11, 2018 Posted September 11, 2018 It must be very frustrating when you just know you are right and people still, foolishly, insist on disagreeing with you.

Yeah, it is. beecee said, "And they all applied to yourself and your inability to accept that you may be wrong, and your obvious "must win" attitude, even to the extent of ignoring valid evidence and arguments, invalidating your wrong stance." If I was wrong I wouldn't be here, the fact that he/she (I'm not sure) projects concepts like "must win," that I'm supposedly ignoring points which invalidates the research I've cited. Well, it's precisely the opposite, I'm not here to win anything. I'm merely reiterating precisely what the science that's been done has established. The truth is beecee can't fathom the fact that he/she may be wrong, and that's why you see projections such as "must win," because that's how he/she exhibits her/hiself. -4

Yeah, beecee sure can't fathom being wrong. They even started a thread to complain about being told to follow the rule on this site, led in OP with calling this place "ridiculous", and have proceeded to argue with every participant in the thread without exception. F'n Beecee, smh. If only they could see themselves.

If you were at all paying attention, and took any notice of what anyone else said instead of single mindedly pushing your own agenda, you would have seen I was actually quoting another person, who I believe hit the nail fair square on the head with regards to yourself.

No, the closures and the downvotes on my post are a testament to the fact that these threads are simply filled with biased atheists. That's all that means. I know you'd like to think it means something else, but that'd be wishful thinking.
