> 1) First of all, never use the Forum to speculate on who is playing who. It's -the- fast track to getting banned. See the Rules. 1) It is also against CF rules, or at least considered cheating and bad form to intentionally let people know *cough challen*. I wasnt actually speculating, I was saying that a few people had already connected the two, and if it was true it was bad form. > 2) I'm sufficiently confident that you are laughably wrong enough that I'll leave this post up for a bit so Macheath gets a good chuckle at your detective skills. 2) I dont care what you think of me or my detective skills. The post wasnt about my skills as a detective, the point of the post was that this sort of...sad...display of low self esteem has happened before, and I didnt say it WAS happening again, but if it was happening again, I wished to express my distaste. > 3) Macheath actually did not invent the word/sound "eh". It might seem that way to the uninitiated, but I swear I've heard it elsewhere, especially during my travels to the north. 3) I never said he invented it. But I see what you are doing, the taking something to an ubsurd extreme in order to disprove it. It's a debate tactic that really doesnt have much basis with truth. What I SAID, and what I meant to portray, Was that to the majority of the populous, Macheath's (the character) most memorable character trait was the "eh". Which while it exists in the real world, in cf he is the one who people DO think of when people talk like that. > 4) Calling people "worthless", then saying "If I am wrong, please accept my apology" is rather poor diplomacy. Try it on a large passerby outside your home if you do not believe me. Please? 4) I was saying that I already consider Macheath worthless, and I was just saying that if Estabano's player was one in the same...well....and if they WERENT one in the same, well sorry. I wasnt trying to be diplomatic. > 5) If you're going to make shit up, at least do a better job. Sheesh. 5) Once again, The point of the post was NOT "Look everyone, I think this is happening". It was "Look dude, *if* you are doing this it is sad".
