Don't be too quick to judge who is the fool and who isn't, LOAP. =)


I don't care what he did on any other thread. Your joining the fray in this thread and accusing him of running away was unfounded, irrelevant to the thread, and incorrect. It really is that simple. Congrats on aligning with Scratch, though.

I like Scratch. But, I don't 'align' with anyone.

Of course, peoples' interests sometimes do coincide.

But, I will remember in the future that, according to LOAP, whatever thread one jumps on, such action indicates alignment of some sort or other.

It cuts both ways, as you well know, LOAP.

Cheers!

And again, you manage to miss the point entirely. I repeat. Maklelan is not running away. He made his case, made it decisively, and then departed when it became apparent he was talking with someone he would rather not talk with. It was utterly apparent. You missed it.

Dosh garn it. I always miss that stuff staring me so utterly straight in the face. =)

Again, Mister Scratch offers the olive branch. What a gentleman.

And he will not be the first to have made a dogmatic pronouncement on a matter without providing any evidence and then scurrying off.

Maybe he's just running to go fight in another fight, away from the first fight.

Once again Blair demonstrates his poor reading comprehension. (Good luck with that Kuhn, by the way!) Maklelan said that he would leave if I did not "concede." Being the gentleman that I am, I went ahead and conceded. However, Maklelan tucked tail and ran anyways, apparently because having his poor grammar pointed out to him was too much to bear. I found that incredibly hypocritical, given the way he had scolded Gadianton earlier in the thread.

Tell me, LoaP:

Why are you so in love with DCP? It is very clear that you love him, after all. Why do you idolize him so much? Do you think that he is more important than the prophet?

What was the purpose of this thread, and what was its conclusion?

Red herring. Back to the question:
