Even I think this topic is pointless...

Phytotron, I would think that someone who is (or seems to claim to be) as intelligent as you are would be able to pick up on the fact that both of those posts were made "for teh lulz".

Y so srs, Phytotron?

While we have a dying thread.. Could you stop writing these, as you call them, "for the lulz" posts? Everyone here would be glad of that.

I will agree to stop writing these "for teh lulz" posts if you stop making these "stop spamming", "this topic is dead" and "this topic is going to get locked" spam posts; I'm sure everyone would be glad for that as well.

EDIT: after noticing when you made this split, it looks like you made a spam topic... This sub topic had been done for over a page in the original topic, so YOU were the one who bumped a dead topic in this case... You should give yourself a warning.

Another thing: How come Phytotron can say "Someone like Mecca and crew, narcissists, borderline sociopaths" and get away with it? That is clearly a personal attack...

I was already pretty sure I(moderator) was unwanted for you.

It's that or having you complain I censored you.

Obviously not, since I decided to split the thread when I saw Lizmatic's reply, which was back then the last one in the thread.

Are friendly warnings, encouraging involved parties to let the matter drop.

Can you spot the difference below?
Phytotron wrote:Civics is the study, understanding, implementation and expression, both philosophical and practical, of the privileges and obligations of citizenship and civic affairs. Put simply, it's how we form and get along in civil society, particular in one supposedly based upon a social contract. Borderline sociopaths clearly have no regard for such things. But, do you, Cosmic Dolphin, really think citizenship is "stupid?" Do you really believe that all that matters in education is learning how to do a specific job making money for someone else?

Carefully re-reading the thread in question only makes me think that Phytotron raises an excellent point.
