Josh Creighton: dude
Josh Creighton: why are you always against me?
YixilTesiphon: ...?
YixilTesiphon: I'm not
Josh Creighton: "Postcounts aren't necessary to remember who somebody is - you can always check their profile and their registration date. (Actually, Ian - what would you think of including registration dates in the box to the left instead of postcounts?)"
YixilTesiphon: that's my opinion
Josh Creighton: don't you think I already know that?
YixilTesiphon: yes
Josh Creighton: not that it's your opinion
Josh Creighton: but what you actually said
YixilTesiphon: yes, of course you know that
Josh Creighton: well, why are you going against my agenda?
YixilTesiphon: I don't give a shit what anybody else's agenda is besides my own
YixilTesiphon: you shouldn't either
Josh Creighton: I don't, but you're going against mine
Josh Creighton: there's a difference
Josh Creighton: I don't specifically go after your agendas
YixilTesiphon: what are my agendas?
Josh Creighton: whatever they are
Josh Creighton: but I don't purposely go after them
YixilTesiphon: no, I'm serious, because I'm making a point here
YixilTesiphon: what are they?
Josh Creighton: whatever they are...pursuing a degree in environmental engineering
YixilTesiphon: you're beating around the bush, I'm talking about on the bbs
Josh Creighton: none, as far as I can tell
YixilTesiphon: correct
Josh Creighton: and?
YixilTesiphon: it's stupid to have an agenda on the bbs
YixilTesiphon: do you really think Ian's going to listen to you?
Josh Creighton: nope
Josh Creighton: but as long as I can complain, I have a chance
YixilTesiphon: so what's the point?
Josh Creighton: even if it is small
Josh Creighton: what's the point in donating to Ron Paul?
YixilTesiphon: you're contributing to the best chance to drastically reduce the size of the federal government
Josh Creighton: right, and I'm trying to get my post count re-displayed
Josh Creighton: it's a consideration type thing
YixilTesiphon: well, I think postcounts are stupid. I'd like registration dates to be displayed.
Josh Creighton: so would I, along with my post count
Josh Creighton: why are you trying to limit my freedom?
Josh Creighton: I'd let you have whatever you want
YixilTesiphon: I'm not trying to limit your freedom, I'm saying that I think displaying postcounts is stupid
Josh Creighton: yeah, and Ian could take that to heart
YixilTesiphon: uhhuh...
Josh Creighton: meaning he wouldn't reconsider putting post counts back on our posts
Josh Creighton: leading to me being upset
Josh Creighton: why do you want to upset me?
YixilTesiphon: you're being retarded
YixilTesiphon: I didn't post that because of you
Josh Creighton: I know, but it will indirectly affect me
Josh Creighton: it's just a consequence of your actions
YixilTesiphon: so you take back that I'm trying to upset you?
Josh Creighton: you're not purposefully trying to upset me
YixilTesiphon: right. I'm stating my opinion on the issue in the appropriate thread. If that happens to conflict with yours, that doesn't make me a bad person or what I'm doing wrong
YixilTesiphon: it just means that we think differently about the issue
Josh Creighton: right, but there's a time and a place to voice your opinion...such as, not voicing it when it could possibly damage your friend
YixilTesiphon: dude
YixilTesiphon: we disagree about this issue
YixilTesiphon: I think the board would be better off without postcounts
YixilTesiphon: your opinion isn't superior to mine because it's yours
Josh Creighton: right, which is why I'm trying to figure out why you would voice your opinion if you know it's hurting me
YixilTesiphon: ...
YixilTesiphon: I just fucking said so
Josh Creighton: so you don't care if this indirectly affects me, is what you're saying?
YixilTesiphon: you do realize we're on equal ground, right?
Josh Creighton: yes, but you're creating a battle
YixilTesiphon: like if Ian decides he agrees with you, it affects me the same amount?
YixilTesiphon: you are asking me not to state my opinion because you stated yours first.
Josh Creighton: actually it doesn't, because I don't think you care about post counts as much as I do
YixilTesiphon: I don't. I care that people care about them.
Josh Creighton: sooo...other people caring about post counts affects you how?
Josh Creighton: that's what I thought
YixilTesiphon: sorry I was reading a thread
YixilTesiphon: it affects me bec;ause it creates an invalid hierarchy
Josh Creighton: how is it invalid?
YixilTesiphon: it implies that the quantity of somebody's posts has anything to do with their authority, while I say how long they've been on the BBS should
YixilTesiphon: anyways, I have a final tomorrow and need to study, I don't have time for BBS drama
Josh Creighton: so then why can't we have posts counts AND registration dates?
Josh Creighton: alright, BBS drama, eh?
YixilTesiphon: talk to you about this on friday once my finals are done
Josh Creighton: no
Josh Creighton: that's fine
YixilTesiphon: I don't get why you're making a mountain out of this molehill
Josh Creighton: seeya
