ORIGINAL: mind_messing The distinction is quite obvious. "You are stupid" vis a vis "Your questions are stupid". warspite1 Well that's the most ridiculous case of hair splitting ever. And yet, a key principle in virtually every academic setting. Not just academic either, real life. That's quite true. I was thinking of the setting of where you can see the distinction clearest. warspite1 You are both of course correct (as always). Now, dig out Alfred's responses to Tanaka across all threads. Then try and defend the fact that Alfred wasn't calling Tanaka Stupid and belittling and bullying him in front of the rest of the forum. If Alfred thought Tanaka always asked stupid questions, why did he feel the need to intervene in the first place? If intervening caused Alfred so much stress and angst, why do it? After all he didn't intervene helpfully did he? So why? If you've got nothing nice to say then don't say anything. Alfred never did comment when Tanaka asked if single engine dive bombers not equipped as dive bombers could dive bomb . . . But he did remember the question. It was pointed out to Tanaka that he needed to think about how to better ask the question including the context. When someone in a thread that Tanaka started asked a better question, then answers were given. warspite1 Not what I asked. Alfred was trying to help Tanaka and others. That is when he answered the questions that he did answer. He did not respond to every question but he probably did remember them since he did bring that one up about non-dive bombers being able to dive bomb. If a person was truly sarcastic, that person could state: "They could probably do it one time and one time only. In the game, certain criteria would have to be met." Then when someone would ask the question about the criteria, then the response would be: "Look up kamikazes!" warspite1 Not what I asked. If you don't want to or can't answer then fine, just don't waste my time with irrelevant noise. I did answer the question to the best of my abilities but the best person to respond would be Alfred. Now, if you can not understand my response, feel free to state that and I will try to explain it in more detail if you would like that. warspite1 Except Alfred has chosen not to he here. I understand your response, but it had nothing to do with my request. M_M thinks nothing of instructing people to go on post hunts (and that if they don't have the time he is, by default correct). So you/he can do the same. Please find me all the posts where Tanaka has asked questions and Alfred has decided to respond. Thank-you. That should not take you too long to search since Tanaka only started posting questions about WITP:AE recently. Remember, don't ask someone to do something if you are unwilling to do so. But if you really want a listing of all of the questions that Tanaka has asked, maybe you should start a thread . . . Alfred was banned by Eric in an admitted violation of the rules . . . warspite1 Alfred was banned after breaching forum rules. Erik has said he should have got a warning, but the ban was deserved so there you go. Eric admitted that Alfred did not get a warning first which is part of the rules, then the ban would be in place. Since there was no warning prior to the ban, then the ban was in violation of the rules. 1. Warning for behavior 2. Ban if that certain specified behavior continues 3. Ban for longer periods of time if that specified behavior continues That is the order which was supposed to have been followed but was not.
