So I have bid my farewell of the EUOT.

Stonewall is a typical GOPtard. You shouldn't expect any sort of civility from him.

[Pat]

You really like picking fights, don't you?

I'd say "liar" is a fair characterization of such behaviour.

Stonewall, is that not a fair characterization? Is not calling someone a liar in public, and using your power to rob them of any chance to defend themselves, akin to being a liar? Or at least dishonest? If you value your credibility and honesty as you say you do, why not at least allow me the chance to give my side? I don't even ask of you that you admit you were wrong. Just that I can give my side of it.

How long have you been hanging around Dorsey?

He was addressing Berkut, fyi.

[Pat]

Yes, I mean Berkut's characterization was fair

Sorry if that wasn't clear. I'll edit the post.

I don't see why you'd expect to be treated differently or act suprised when you have trolls like Dark Knight, Stonewall, and maartos laying down the law. They expect a libertarian/conservative bent to their little corner of the internet.

What do you mean?

[Stonewall]

Mind answering my question, Stonewall?

I have not responded, nor am I likely to do so in the near future.

Why not? Was my request not fair?

I simply don't any desire to continue the discussion with you. 

Do you think it is fair to publicly slander someone and use your power to rob them of any chance to defend themselves? After talking high about the sacrosanctity of credibility? Was that all bullshit?

Is it fair?  Probably not. 

[Berkut]

Fair is mostly over-rated anyway.

It's a fair question.  Without further explanation and elaboration, calling someone a liar in your capacity as a moderator, and then gagging them from defending themselves, looks like an act of considerable cowardice (even if you think it's justified).  You don't accuse someone of being a liar lightly, not if you have any shred of personal integrity.

I didn't accuse him lightly.  He lied, I called him on it and then ended the discussion.  Sorry if that seems cowardly to you.  I guess you can call me "Yeller." 

[Pat]

I did not lie. Please explain to me how the hell I was lying.

And why do you run from the discussion if you think you're in the right?

[Stonewall]

And why do you run from the discussion if you think you're in the right?

Being the libertariantard you think I am, I believe it is my choice whether to participate or not.  I choose not to.

That was not directed at you personally. Don't you have the objectivity to see past differences in politics? And of course you can do what you want, but if you value your credibility as you do, you should be able to explain WHY you make that choice.

[Berkut]

Actually, I think explaining why would damage his credibility more, at least here at Languish.

Right now, he looks pretty smart - why mess with that?

Plus he has that avatar, so that is worth quite a bit as well.

He looks smart? How does he look smart?
