So the original post sucked while the rest of the thread is okay, and therefore it's a shame you didn't nutkick the thread, even thought that would not have changed the original post, but only nuked the rest of the thread?
I'm not following. :confused:
None of the more erudite conversation here necessarily hinges on Poetic Thief's post, and could just have easily cropped up in a better thread. That said, I don't actually advocate shutting down dumbass threads like this because they do on occasion foster good discussions, but god knows there's a few people who need their kidneys punched. TL;DR: people with stupid opinions are useful but that doesn't mean we shouldn't shove them into the street when they no longer serve their purpouse.

Why are you so desperate to link the stunted enjoyment people with the smoking jacket brandy types? Both are assholes, but there's less overlap there than you think. Look at Koki, he hates Mario, but would you really call him wanna-bourgeois?
Are you seriously trying to use Koki as an example for your counter-argument? It's
Koki. I can point to, well, Poetic Thief, BRnumbers, 242 (though I think he's starting to get it) as perfect examples, BRnumbers being the ultimate one (and thankfully gone.) In all honesty I could point to a good portion of the Thief fandom as my evidence.

Oops, I forgot to add a line about focusing on inane semantics. Sorry ZB, you must have felt left out. I'll do that next time.

Yeah, but the Thief fans spend more time writing Garrett erotica than they do wearing monocles. Also, Koki is Koki, this is undeniable.

But realistically, it wouldn't have.
Look, I certainly don't begrudge you the odd kidney punch ... just be mindful of the fact that you are one prolific poster (!), and have a lot of influence over the tone around here.
