What does "over-intellectualizing" means anyway ?

Means excessive and often abstractive rationalisation of an idea or action.

That can not be bad, but when the point is more down to the ground, it is mostly ineffective and useless.

Sounds like a cheap trick to speak your way out of a lost argument

Who cares whether we are speaking in layman's terms or in abstract ones? Can we just get back to the discussion, if there is something more to add from either side, I do not follow this thread to see who is better at internet arguing, but rather to try and get a broader picture of the situation.

I'm sure where Butan comes from calling someone intelligent is an insult.

Over-intellectualizing sounds like a term that people of the same intellectual caliber as Sarah Palin would use.

I was never fond of how Oberyn and Xant discuss in these forums. They tend to insult (Mostly Oberyn) and can be quite arrogant at times (Mostly Xant). It makes me wonder why you guys are having such attitudes. Because you're not going to change anyones mind in a discussion when you insult them and act superior to them. All you will probably achieve is them distancing themselves even more from your opinion.

At times you post good opinions that differ from mine, and even if there's many shitposters in the forum, I'd rather ignore you fellows and have a discussion with them because of the behaviour you show.

Well, y'see, you reap what you sow.

The Xant is rough with rough-necks.

It's not just two of them. Gnjus does the same, Olwen too, Gingerpussy as well, Noctivagant... you catch my drift? :wink:

There's a reason why everyone in dev team besides cmp is being nice when communicating with players.

None of those arrogant types have been able to actually back their "you're an idiot" claims with actual arguments as reliably as Xant, though.

Don't understand the need to show that someone is an idiot. Point of an discussion is to prove that your stance is correct. Debate is a tool like everything else. Just because it involves two people talking, doesn't mean it should be about them and their feelings.

Back on-topic, from what I read today in the news, war has already started? Is there a way to avoid it now or shit has hit the fan?
