Soulfilms, you have a short memory. If not for Shatzy's interference, we could have had a substantive progression to this topic.

No, I do not engage in potshotting. But I would have liked the chance the to respond to what you believed was potshotting.

Instead, it's the obnoxious Shatzy show instead.

SF didn't deny any 'inference'... she was stating
that there was no clever motive to 'gang up' on you, alex

you mean... you would like the chance to argue
why you don't think it was a 'potshot'.

now you know how it feels

[Alex]

I'd suggest start another topic post but since you have effectively ruined the singular focus of this topic post by harping on what you want it to be, I'd rather you wait until SF decides to post.

You "opinion" is that I will try and discredit or "explain" why what SF brings up as a potshot, may not be one.

That's really no big deal. I would either make a good case, or not. Your pre-prediction about what may happen is not that earth-shattering. Your agenda as related to the topic post has been no different than the thumpiest Bible Thumper when it comes to proclaiming their set of values over all else.

If you're going to do that, at least do it on a topic post you start.

i don't see how i've ruined anything about the
topic of this thread. in fact, i have attempted
to show support for the topic by asking you to
provide examples of your own.
it was by your doing that this thread went to tangent,
not mine. i've merely stated that i'd like you
to post your own 'potshots'.

i don't see wtf you mean.
you will try to discredit SF's claim of an 'alex
potshot' because you have already stated that you
have not made any.

are you attempting to say that SF cannot make a
valid claim that you have potshotted her because
it would require your explination to make the
potshot invalid???

if that were true, then you are 'illegally' claiming
potshots by others that have yet to explain their
reasoning behind posts that you claim to be potshots.

this is where the hypocrisy lies.

what for? as a registered HB user, i can post
on any thread... unless banned or deleted/edited.

are you disappointed in how this thread has not
gone your way?

[SHATOUSHKA]

oh lord....

i dunno wtf you get off thinking i'm on some crusade here.
my initial post was asking you for your own support
of wtf a 'potshot' was...
now you turn this issue into some sort of 'attack'
by me... which wasn't the case at all... until
you refused to do so.

you quickly point a finger at people claiming a
potshot against you... and yet you claim you have
never done so.

when i asked that no one give support for alex
potshots was because i knew you'd refute it....
because you are too righteous in your thinking
to see that you do, in fact, potshot.

i never said you couldn't explain your posts.
what i did say was that had SF posted the potshots
by you... you'd just ramble on about how it wasn't
a real potshot... as if you hold supreme rule over
the term... or the definition thereof.

this is absurd.
of course i KNOW you potshot.

and of course you believe in potshotting...
but let's not play semantics...

it humors me to watch you consistantly point your
finger... you are such a hypocrite.

and wtf is 'pre-predicting' anyway???
wanna talk about linguistics and word forms....
that term is completely nonsensical.

Since Alex seems content to stay set in his stubborn ways, I will take it upon myself to post potshots from Alex.

The following example is taken from just earlier today.

Potshot? ...or not? You be the judge.

Dont be so harsh on other potshotters, Alex, when you cannot even live up to the standards which you have placed on the rest of us.

[Alex]

TG is sneaky, make that snarky. (and that's more of a word than fainter ever was).

I only brought your topic post back from page three because of your potshot to a suggestion I had made on another ADM topic post.

http://www.hostboard.com/cgi-bin/ult...pic&f=1&t=1879

What's really amazing TG, is that my idea could benefit Acropolis, not only could not admit that and even agree that my suggestion was a good idea, you had to ridicule it with the following quote...

"I'd pay 10 bucks a month for an "Alex Whimsical Post" filter."

ha, ha, ha.

[Alex]

Shatzy, of course I don't potshot. So of course I would probably be able to "explain" if someone else thought I had potshotted. If I felt they were right, I would admit it.

But the odds of that are very remote, because, I don't potshot. Potshotting is not a way of life for me. Deep down, perhaps you know this to be true, and it must bug you for some reason.

If it helps you any, responding to a potshot does not make one a potshotter. Perhaps that is the source of your confusion and why you have falsely labeled me as one. [img]graemlins/hug.gif[/img] [img]graemlins/kiss.gif[/img] [img]graemlins/heart.gif[/img] [img]smile.gif[/img]

For someone who is so anti-religion, you have taken on a bent of self-reproach, for a public confessional.

It's downright bizarre for you, especially you, of all people, to demand Alex kneel and ask for forgiveness. It's rather creepy as it represents the very essence of all religions and thereby goes against everything you stand for, or against.

Soulfilms appeared ready to give an example or two of potshotting by me, and instead we just have repeated banter from you about how I should confess my sins.

You yourself have admitted the reason you don't want anyone else (and, that too is a form of a potshot, pretending to speak for others) to post their opinion is that I may in fact have an excellent explanation that counters their point.

Since you have already convinced yourself (which sets up a further potshot, the pre-predicting of events yet to happen) that the last thing you want to read is me explaining my position, you go on a pre-emptive crusade demanding that I confess all.

Perhaps you are on this crusade because deep down you know that I don't potshot and don't believe in potshotting.

Why you prefer to have the lowest possible opinion of me is your trip, that's a game I have never embraced and hope I never will.

[Alex]

It wouldn't be for every forum, only those that pay.

It would make Hostboard money.

Shatzy, I responded to your lengthy response on your
post.

(see TG, I remember your post about how responding on someone's own topic post means they won't be notified that there was a new message, so I made this one to let Shatzy know.)
