Hmm... Perhaps the personal insults should stop?

No, I don't work at a help desk.

I'm a compiler service analyst. We talk to companies who have questions/bugs with our compilers.

I'm the human that they talk with, and answer their questions/fix their bugs.

I don't get it -- what is your point...?

The point is, you aren't even smart enough to remain consistent. The only way you could congratulate/compliment me on raising my daughter is by my talking about her in the first place. For which you later razz me about.

Asher, I don't know if you realize it, but you just basically said "deep down inside I am an *******, in real life I fake being pleasant with people, but online since I can't get punched I reveal my inner self."

You guys are making a remarkable leap in logic -- I'm nice to nice people.

JohnT's been in ass to me, so go figure that I'm an ass to him. He even went as far as saying I was "one of the biggest cowards on this board" -- oh so ironically posted while I was banned and unable to respond.

I know pleasantries, and with people I know and like I will us e them.

You don't have a 2-year relationship that survives months where you are 3,000km apart if you're just an *******.

Boshko PWNS again.

I insult people I have a history with, because I really don't like them -- usually they cast the first stone. I hold a grudge.

That's plain not true, you insult people who haven't started it, you insult people who don't insult you back such as BK, and you insult entire groups of people(Christians, Liberal Arts Majors, Mac Users)

You are one piece of work.

The whole point of the thread was to force people to compliment eachother (ironic considering the topic of this conversation).

I picked the most visible aspects of two people and used them -- your business woes (with your daddy issues/family) and with your daughter that you post so much about.

The other one was Boris' porn collection.

Now think about just how inconsistent I was with the tone of that post, and seeing as I compared your business skills and ability as a father to Boris' porn collection.

Think about it, John.

I am quite positive this one will be locked/deleted as soon as I wake up. In the meantime... eh, wtf. Sometimes its fun to hurl insults at each other.

The entire groups of people think falls under the "troll" category, and doesn't count.

As for BK -- that's mostly back and forth bantering like an old couple. This is actually a really good example -- I exchanged PMs with BK just a couple days ago, and I helped him solve some Windows problems.

Ask him if you don't believe me. It turns out I was a nice guy.

But it is breaking site rules nonetheless. I do not think that Ming will look favourably on people who admit they are breaking the rules, yet continuing to break them anyways.

JohnT being a sterotypical nerd. I didn't know glasses = nerd. Maybe in Asherville they do. Asher saw a picture of a man with glasses and saw nerd. Plenty of people on this forum have met John in person and haven't thought even close to a similar response.

Oh, and it CONTINUES to amuse me when Asher says he has people skills and then self-pwns him constantly when trying to prove it.

[mrmitchell]

I'm nice to nice people.

BK would say something along the lines of "Love thy enemy", probably, and I would too. But I bet BK would know relevant verses etc.

"Treat others as you wish to be treated"

"If you don't have anything nice to say, don't say anything at all"

"Karma will come back to bite you in the ass"

However you want to say it, it is ALWAYS good to be nice to people, and try to help them.

If that's the case, then he forgot his thread (posted a couple of years ago) about his new glasses.

No one said glasses = nerd.

Look at the man's posts, especially about business. Then look at his picture.

You just know someone like that was bullied in high school. If you knew what high school kids were like.

People Skills != being nice to everyone, regardless of merit.

Skills are not passive -- you can choose to use them when you want to.

The lot of you seem to think people skills is just another name for being a nice, perky, likable person. You are confusing charisma with people skills.

I help people when they ask for help. Even people like BK or Agathon.

As for being nice to people always -- that's one thing I can't stand -- it's so phony. How the hell do you know what somebody really thinks if all they do is be nice?

If you ask me, that's a much bigger problem. I value the truth more than people bending the truth or lying to be nice.

[Spiffor]

Ah, now the battleground is the definition of "people skills"

So tell us, what does "people skills" entail, other than being able to listen to the others?
