As a certain Vulcan might say - ‘Fascinating!?’🖖
Lore (mostly) goes [i]whoooosh! [/i]over this old tortoise’s noggin…though it is appreciated when knowledgeable folk share their thoughts! 🤔
And I do have the ‘Lore’ Seal, too! 👻
That is all.
Ease Springs! 🫡

This dude makes stuff up.

[quote]This dude makes stuff up.[/quote] Who, moi? 🫣 Certainly not! 😉 I’m a Guardian and all Guardians are fibbers…🤥 Live long and prosper, Guardian! 🖖 That is all. Ease Springs! 😎 MDGA

Not you, elder guardian, the op you responded to. He has a penchant for making stuff up as if he knows more than anyone else. Keep slaying Guardian.

Nope, that's your projections. 😇👍💠

Edited by jhermannITJ: 3/27/2025 6:09:28 AMI didn't make any of that up. 😇👍💠 Even corrected potential errors I noticed after the fact, indicated those edits for transparency. What? Someone get in your ear, I wasn't gaslighting you. I even promise I won't comment should you make that Winnower topic. Per my corrections, if the Subjugator escaped... why? Why did it run? Why would it... or its master, forfeit the echo to us? The reason I didn't follow up with your teaser comment, because I didn't want you to burn those ideas in that topic. And I'll tell you why I have an affinity for you, I've said it before: You're rhetorically savy and intelligent. When you write... and what you've written per lore analysis is interesting and enjoyable to read. When we've been in agreement, again... how it started, there was a lot of overlap between our ideas in the beginning. And even when we were not in agreement, I respected and valued your critique. I can't say that for everyone.

You do indeed make stuff up. Eris rising up through the hive pantheon means she has to know the potential contender? So she’s manipulating and withholding. Followed up with the whole ‘oh she might turn on us’ is your usual be schtick. I think you’re 0-5 on that angle alone, including her. Of course my lore writing is good, I don’t make crap up lol you decry my methods but they actually get results. Unlike yours. That’s why people ask me for posts about topics. Including you lol Which makes you my minion, remember? Go fetch Fido.
-
Lol. What? 😇👍💠 You're extremely confused. I don't care what you do. I was being nice. Speaks to your character that you try to flip it as a cudgel.

Dude, you gotta stop using that set of emojis. [quote]😇👍💠[/quote] In fact, I’d recommend not using emojis altogether. It just comes off as blatantly insincere and inauthentic. Speaking of insincere, you can’t say he’s projecting making stuff up in one breath then in another make statements that you respect his writing and want to respectfully discuss. That just comes off as obvious fake flattery. It’s part of why he responded negatively - aside from the disagreement. With that said, if you find that someone is being disrespectful to you, or you are to someone else, then either party is free to block. Trying to continue arguments like this becomes more about ego and being right rather than engaging in the topic of lore. Which is honestly a waste of time

I don't care that the emojis I use to have fun annoys one of my antagonists. I'm not being insincere, and MC and I have a history going back 3 years. Our ideas did overlap, he became jaded after he thought Bungie eliminated a personified Winnower as a narrative possibility. That changed recently and we had a pleasant exchange where it looked like the old MC, so I encouraged it. However, they've been trolling me for over a year non-stop and it's never phased me. What do you think your chances are? MC is 10x smarter than you. 😇👍💠 I'd like to see them back as a positive voice. And I was being nice, genuinely nice...
-
Ah yes, such a kind voice, clearly. That’s totally the vibe I’m getting from you with your ad hominem comments while simultaneously trying to toady up with MC. In case it’s not clear - I am being sarcastic. And no, based on what I’ve seen you were not being nice. As I pointed out, you were behaving rather “two-faced”. But you’re free to do that, just don’t be surprised that people can see it and call it out for what it is. 👍 ( see how insincere that emoji feels, which makes any goodwill I express feel fake? Funny how that works )

Edited by jhermannITJ: 3/28/2025 3:10:36 AMYou don't know what ad hominem means. The opposite, I'm saying MC is different than you. Whom can be a positive voice and influence when they want. It's not gaslighting either. It's the truth... and I don't hold grudges. I never insult anyone, but I will characterize their behavior. I am saccharin, but that's just who I am. 😇👍💠 You're projecting as always, & so far you've failed completely.
-
Yes, you weren’t being insulting in the slightest - haha ok bud Whatever you need to say to feel better about yourself

Edited by jhermannITJ: 3/28/2025 3:22:28 AMYou called me "two faced"... there's an anthology of insults. You'll edit previous comments so that my subsequent comments don't make sense... literally the last time you tilted on me, and I still don't remember where you came from... whatever meaningless chip on your shoulder; carrying that burden of animus from topic to topic. MC's last comment was that I was licking his *******, lol. Nope. And an insult. Going out of your way to impugn my character... when Panda enjoyed the lore post I did for fun. That's "ad hominem"... & an insult. 😇👍💠
-
I said you were behaving two faced. Not saying that you are two faced. Two different things. But sure, make claims of what I am going to do. My point stands. I'm not interested in further semantic games.

Edited by jhermannITJ: 3/28/2025 4:02:00 AMSee you're trying to avoid accountability. It doesn't hold water. All that a discerning or interested party needs to do is review and compare the communications... either between you & I... or MC & I. You talk about sincerity... you're maliciously opportunistic sacrificing any credibility when you act that way. I didn't flag that comment either, I never used to flag anything... but now I do, if it's flagrant enough. Typically, I want you to volunteer as an example if you choose to do so. I think it's important that we don't censor all bad behavior & or trolling because otherwise people remain ignorantly naive to what is proper decorum. How you might resist such behavior, I think I do a pretty good job. I got baited once recently, but I took accountability for my poor judgement and learned from it. 😇👍💠 I'm not perfect, I make mistakes. But, I won't coddle those that obviously come in bad faith. Like yourself.

Nice? More like tonguing my -blam!- to curry favor.
