Slashdot Mirror

Since you insist on nitpicking, let's set the record straight.

YOU linked to THIS PAGE.

THAT page referenced THIS PAGE.

In one of my replies, I quoted from the latter page's quote of the comments by the publishing house's Director.

You then suggested that we look at the actual review, when what I had quoted was from that page at ippublishing which does in fact contain quotes from the review itself, plus comments by the Director about the review.

And all of them supported the point I was making. While you, in turn, insisted in picking at irrelevant details about what I'd written, rather than addressing the actual points I made.

Is that accurate enough for you? Or do you want to nitpick/troll further?

Again, Jane, you first quoted ioppublishing.org here. After Layzej politely asked for a citation, you could've simply linked to ioppublishing.org, but instead you said "I was quoting the page YOU linked to. Sheesh. Didn't recognize your own citation?"

Then you continued, saying "If you can't follow this thread back up a few levels to see and perhaps even follow the link YOU posted, in a comment to which I directly replied, then you probably aren't qualified to be making arguments on Slashdot."

You kept going: "you're a fine one to talk about others' qualifications, if you don't even know the contents of the references YOU linked to, or in what context. I am done here."

And you still kept going: "Yes, it is there, and I got there in exactly the manner I described: clicking "Parent" in this same thread until I got there. And if you click on the link in that post of yours, which takes you to this page, you will indeed see the words I quoted further up in this thread. And I repeat: you are grossly wasting my time. I shall not help you find your own goddamned references again."

That was you repeatedly saying he linked to ioppublishing.org. Erroneously including that link once doesn't explain why this entire "conversation" revolved around you refusing to give a link for your quote which indeed comes from an ioppublishing.org link that Layzej never linked.

Also, there's really no need to keep implying that anyone who disagrees with you is a sociopath.

Nope. It's not there. I suspect if it was you could provide a link. Of course, this is all beside the point that your quote is disproved by the source material.

Yes, it is there, and I got there in exactly the manner I described: clicking "Parent" in this same thread until I got there.

And if you click on the link in that post of yours, which takes you to this page, you will indeed see the words I quoted further up in this thread.
