I give up. Kilam, you're ignoring the facts and running the same bullshit around in circles.
You are 100% and completely wrong. Because you obviously do not actually read my posts I won't waste my time typing out an elongated response to you in this, it's a practice in futility.
Hunting is unneccessary, therefor what reason remains for continuing it?
Go ahead, read my last post, you obviously didn't.
Hunters enjoy hunting - look at Kas' thread about hunting and how proud he was about it. Amusment, pure are simple.
You make the fallacious assumption that because he gets amused and enjoys himself while hunting that the only reason to hunt is for said amusement and enjoyment?
That's a grossly inaccurate assumption about all forms of life.
Let's have an example...
A pilot flies for the United States military. While serving in the Persian Gulf he goes on an operation that results in the destruction of a facility that holds several tanks that were to be used for an assault on American forces.
He is proud of this accomplishment and goes back to his base/carrier and has a party over it. Did he go on that operation solely for the purpose of enjoying the feeling of it? Does that mean he went on it specifically to kill people, or did he do it to stop those tanks from moving? Though he was proud of accompishing his goal was he necessarily proud of taking human life?
You are assuming that because one feeling goes hand in hand with a certain situation then those two are constantly and irrefuteable linked and therein lies one of the largest flaws in your arguement.
I've been here longer that Dolash.
Are you certain? Are you not the same person who came here with the Galactic Defense Initiative? Supreme Commander Isstal? While looking though the archives it would seem to me that Dolash has been posting here longer than that. If I am mistaken my apologies.
There are several here who are far less competant writers than yourself, and probably are not as intelligent, but have indeed been here longer.
What you are saying is that because you feel you have been here longer than any person your claim somehow has more validity than anothers'.
While your credibility may be higher, or lower based on your previous actions, the fact remains that the validities do not vary.
But again, your taking things out of context. People who have been here know something about the rules and how TRF works - you try and completely disregard that when they comment.
You are absolutely and 100% right. I disregard pasts, presents, and futures, I disregard everything in the context of a discussion except your statements.
And that's why I addressed the issue here. You are looking at Kas's past and not his point.
I don't care if you are Omnae, Damalis, you, or Lupercus or even Joren Arden or President Griff, you are just one person making one claim. Your past actions, your credibility mean nothing if that claim is false and that is the only thing I will refute.
I won't refute my past with you, I'll refute your statement.
Everything else you said was just rewording what you've said already.
