You're framing it far too personally. That's not how I feel at all
If you want me to apologize for having a bit more experience than some (not all) here, I can't apologize for something I can't do anything about. If you or others want to hold that against me, that's also something I can't do anything about.
Don't hate me for being older or for doing this stuff longer than many others (but not all) here. I can't hop into a time machine and change that.
As much as you might want to believe otherwise, life is not fair and is not a level playing field. All opinions are not created equal. That's not any kind of opinion or bigotry against anybody on my part; it's just simply how real life is.
I don't feel superior to anybody. I defer to many others here on many subjects and in many ways. I'm just relating what I know. If that makes others feel inferior, that's their choice to react and feel that way. But don't blame that reaction on me.
And note that I tried to end this stupid sub-thread; and that it was only after I did that you guys jumped in and decided to not only continue it, but make it personal.
G.
And you're framing it far too specifically.
I don't hate you for being older or having more experience...what the fuck are you talking about there dude? I think I made it pretty clear that I respect that. If you'd like to read my post again what I was actually talking about was
your lack of respect for people younger than you with less experience. Did you really misread that, or are you deliberately twisting my words? And don't tell me that's a non-issue, because I've been watching you fly off at the less informed for months now.
And you don't get to just close a stupid argument that you started, life doesn't work that way.
You're right, life isn't fair. I of all people know this. And again, you're right, all opinions aren't equal. But
other people's right to express them, and
other people's right to listen to and ask for them is
none of your fucking concern.
You
used to relate what you know, now you just criticize people for not knowing as much as you, for asking questions, for trying to help people with their limited experience. If I'm wrong point to the post in this thread where you answered the OP's question constructively rather than just pulling apart other people's opinions?
I don't want you to apologise for anything, I don't give a tinker's cuss whether you feel superior or not. What goes on inside your head is not my problem. What would be appreciated though, is if you'd stop being a pompous jerk to people all the fucking time.
Whether you choose to believe it or not, this is coming from someone who has a reasonable amount of respect for you. I'm not here to deliberately rile you like some others are. I respect your experience and like hearing your constructive take on things. I'm merely observing that you're being an ass and it's pretty much a fucking shame. It's like this place has jaded you (which is totally understandable). Just try to play nice huh? There's a tonne of people here who don't know what the fuck they're talking about, but no one is going to listen to the people that do if they're jerks about it.
