Dumb comparison discussion
« on: March 18, 2013, 10:14:38 am »
I know, I repeat myself but... I do like the game and I do not feel sorry for spending some of my money on it (especially by buying from key seller - no regrets here).
But keep raging about a game you most likely haven't played... makes a really strong impression  :mrgreen:

People not having lived under the wonderful rule of Kim Jong-un also come off as pretty weak while discussing North Korea.

Take a breather and find something other than insults in your bag of arguments.

Calling an idiot an idiot is stating a fact.
And comparing some computer game with a dictatorship that probably cost a lot of people their lives makes you a pretty big idiot. Besides that such a comparison is hardly an argument but plain douchebaggery... now piss off.

It has nice graphics, cool effects. You see your city alive and stuff but thats all about it. AI is frigging retarted, small city sizes and it seems whatever you do, something always goes terribly wrong.

I havent played the game myself but watched couple of lets play videos of different people. This game needs lots of patching.
Never denied that it's far from perfect. Just a bit annoyed that I don't seem to be allowed to still enjoy it.  :rolleyes:

I guess car analogies are also bad and "douchbaggery" since traffic costs so many lives every year.

Also comparing some computer game with the computergame industry that probably costs a lot of people their social lives and hardearned cash on totally useless things makes also one a douchebag. :lol:
...
But keep raging about a game you most likely haven't played... makes a really strong impression  :mrgreen:
Really?..A person who hasnt  spent cash on worthless items has no buisness discussing about it, even when proper research is done? Its like saying people who havent been shot before have no right on discussing gun violence issues.

To counter which of your posts?

The one where you called me an idiot? The one where you called me a douchebag and told me to piss off? The post that only had an imagemacro?

Claiming that computer games are a special case and should skip normal debate, without explaining why this is so is an example of special pleading, a fallacy.

You obviously have the impression that comparing an inhumane dictatorship with a PC game you don't happen to like is a normal debate, then I simply feel sorry for you.
Feeling sorry for you doesn't change the fact that you still are an idiot imho for even coming up with something like that... and I still would like to see you to piss off... honestly.

You know, feelings don't usually make for good arguments. In this case, your feelings about my comparison don't really invalidate it.
Or give any cover to the point you ignored in your quote.

To put this in another form:

Premise:
 I feel bad about your comparison.
(Implicit premise:)
 Things that feel bad are incorrect.
Conclusion:
 Your comparison is incorrect.

In case you still haven't noticed: I am not even trying to argue with people like you, hence I do not need arguments.

You are too smart for us Benkei. I for one suggest that you would stop posting entirely, for nothing we shall ever write will compare to the enlightening genius that are your posts. Save that material for your books, no purpose of tiring your brilliant fingers on that cruel keyboard to write your revolutionary ideas to such insignificant worms like us. We are truly unworthy!
