"You're clearly young." - actually im not young, and this is the way i type. if you have a problem with it then go to Webster's dictionary and cry about it. obviously you dont have a comeback so you pick on me for my grammar and spelling(which your are not the 1st person). I can type correctly when I need to. more or less when Im at work. this isnt paying my bills so I DONT have to be professional.

"An opinion doesn't end in a "period", it ends in a question mark." - no it end in a period. it a statement not a question. im not questioning you about my opinion; im giving you my opinion.

"Get over it and enjoy your 19" LCD that happens to be about a foot smaller than my picture screen in the program guide." - sure ok i will and i am. really your the one who needs to get over it not me.

"I have a 110" screen because I can." - ok thats $53,000 - hence you have more money than brains, or 12 years old and lying about it. and thats if you get a deal on it. i heard they were more like $70,000. really IF you can afford a TV that big then why are you here on these forums arguing about a video game? even the CEO of Rockstar probably doesn't have a TV that big. why would you? oh that right cause you can huh? or maybe you meant a projector screen...ehh either way your still a loser.

"Go to school to learn English before you go to school to support a family." - actually i have gone to school and completed it several years ago with a diploma. so you can question that all you like, and im telling you this so you can have some sorta of comeback.

"You're a complete dolt." - and your OPINION matters to me how? maybe you mean "You're a complete dolt?"

anything else you like to say, say it. clearly your mad at what said to you and you cant get over the fact that you a loser and you like trolling on forums

 

Your errors aren't typing errors - they're grammatical errors caused by a lack of knowledge. Consistently getting "your" and "you're" wrong cannot be blamed on accidental typos - you clearly don't know when to use them.

Whilst I agree that we shouldn't be overly bothered by the occasional typo on forums, it's rather poor to dismiss barely comprehensible posts with a shrug and say "it's the web, it doesn't matter". Since you claim to not be young, do you not think that you should accept some responsibility for setting an example for younger posters? How are the young supposed to learn how to write properly if all around them their seniors cannot even get the basics right?
 



like I said "this isnt paying my bills so I DONT have to be professional."

yeah you dont know me from the next person but i am not young(really it sounds like you're making me second guess my own age lol; and i can tell you you're about 2 years older than me). i would at least hope they can learn by my mistake and not their own(that being said you have to learn by your own mistakes as well). thats how i learned(not talking about grammar or spelling im talking about life in general).

"it's the web, it doesn't matter" very true and on that note im out for at least 8 hours cause i have been up all night, thats prolly why i have bad grammar to begin with(not lack of knowledge). as the screen tends to get kind of blurry sometimes.
 



You heard? From who? Again, you're a dolt. My projector and screen was less than $5000. Go on, keep posting about more stuff you don't know anything about. Really, keep going. Your ignorance amuses me.
 


Pluz it'z jus fun toooo pic on peeple
 
So I read recently that the topic of this particular thread was actually about GTA IV not coming to the PC... maybe Tom's should start up a forum topic aside from "Games General" called "Grammar Debate" or something like that, where this kind of droning can go on and on for eternity!
 



http://xo.typepad.com/blog/2007/06/jvcs_worlds_lar.html - $53,000 ~ it doesnt matter who i heard it from its not like you know them anyways.

"Go on, keep posting about more stuff you don't know anything about." - right. you said screen. i figured LCD; TV or something of that nature(really you should of been more clear than screen). obviously its a projector, cause you cant afford the $53,000 110'' TV (the worlds largest TV) nor could I or would I want a TV/screen/projector that big. its a waste of money(hence you have more money than brains, or 12 years old and lying about it.). i dont watch tv and if i did thats why i have a TV tuner card, and also a 32'' TV if i really wanted to watch tv.

"Again, you're a dolt." - and again thats your opinion and you still dont have a comeback.

"Really, keep going. Your ignorance amuses me" - its prolly the only thing that does. "Your ignorance" and thats also your opinion.

really this is why I dont post on forum anymore cause of douche bag fags like you. im try and pm the OP of this thread and see if he can lock it. im tired of arguing over the internet with someone that prolly 3000+ miles away and their goal is to get the last word in.

 



geezz you cant forget about it huh? like i said im tired of arguing with someone that 3000+ miles away thats acting like my girlfriend does. seriously you are acting like a bitch. you cant drop the issue. and i said "i figured" to give you some kind of retort. the issue is closed PC still wins. period. (and btw thats my opinion)
 
For a man who was so keen to start an argument (with Loftus) you're mighty quick to capitulate when things aren't going your way.

I bet you were the kid who turned over the Monopoly board when you weren't winning, weren't you? 😉
 
well like i said you cant forget about it. right i started the 'argument' or whatever you want to call it with him. its really between me and him. but i can see youre his butt-buddy and you have to stand in too 'defend' him. the man has his own opinion let him speak for himself. for the record i never liked Monopoly and i still played and won at it. really we're going around in circles until the OP locks the thread or u give it up and go do something else with your time. but then again its your time to waste not mine.

he said: "Here I disagree. I built a home theater (110" projector, 7.1, etc), to have a...movie theater. I had an HD DVD player but also wanted Blu-ray. The Sony stand alone unit was $399. The PS3 was $399. From my perspective, the PS3 was a "free" bonus on top of having built in wireless/2.0 bluetooth allowing me to do firm/software updates for the Blu-ray player, something only now stand alone units are getting the ability to do without discs... "

I said: "key word ''projector" i was talking about LCD's and plasma's "

he's entitled to his opinion and I wasn't discrediting him of that. he misunderstood what i said so i corrected myself.

it could be said thats where the argument started and in fact that he got the ball rolling. but then again ''youre right and im wrong'' apparently.
 
Actually, maintaining the civility of these forums is something all of us have an interest in. It was you who derailed the initial discussion with ad hominem attack on Loftus, and I now see that you're trying the same with me.

Also, I wasn't defending Loftus' opinion. I couldn't give a cr*p about what size screen either of you have. I made no reference to the argument that the two of you were having. I was expressing my own opinion about grammar standards on the forum in response to your post.

It is becoming increasingly apparent that you're an extremely immature individual who;

a) Is secretly ashamed of his lack of communication skills, which is why you react so vehemently to any criticism of them.
b) Are slightly paranoid, in that you assume that you critics are part of some larger conspiracy to make you look foolish.

In future, I'd recommend that you take a deep breath and count to 10 before posting replies to post that have irritated you. You will win few friends and little respect if your response to any kind of criticism is to fly off the handle and insult everyone.

And for the record, if your best shot is calling me someone's "butt-buddy" you need to update your insults into something a little more clever and adult. Homophobia might be cool on the playground but most adults grow out of it. I won't report it this time since you're clearly insecure and I wouldn't want to add to your persecution complex.


Edited for typo.
 



a) huh?
b) huh??

look im not here to make friends if i wanted to make friend i'd goto a park, mall, or even a bar. and really i recommend you keep your nose out some else business. really next time stay out of it and Bubba wont come by and poke you in your puckered starfish.

and actually hes the one who started talking about how irrelevant a TV is so he derailed the thread. if you have to report me thats what you have to do. you'll be doing me a favor. so thanks ahead of time.
 


Actually, THAT was were what started as a debate derailed into an argument of insults. It was celalry intended to be antagonistic whilst contributing nothing to the debate. Can you see who posted it?
 



no thats where it started wanna try agian.
 


As I've already said, I wasn't involved about the discussion on screen sizes or consol vs PC. I was replying to your comment about grammar not mattering on forums. It appears that you've got a little confused.
 

Your comment (quoted in full for your convenience) is clearly inferring that you don't believe it is necessary to use correct spelling, puncutation and grammar, except whilst at work.

My reply to you was challenging that claim. That was it. No comment about screens or the relative merits of PCs vs consoles. Two completely different arguments, and yet in both you started to throw insults around because someone had challenged your opinions. If you insist on being close minded, that's your choice.
 
I'd long ago given up any expectation of you actually posting a proper reply to my initial post, but simply repeating the rather lame Websters comment that led me to post in the first place is a spectacularly dull effort.

Edit: I retract the comment below, as I realise it was unfounded.
--------------
Instead, I note that you're now going back to your earlier posts and edittng them to try and make yourself appear more reasonable and less of an angry, paranoid jerk. You truly are utterly pathetic.
