You do seem to have a penchant for forming strong opinions based on zilch!
You just claimed that I "only deride". I hope you did know the meaning of the word "deride" before you used it.
Except for the current GiG's post, can I request you to show me a SINGLE post where I have ridiculed or "derided" any success story posted so far. So as you don't forget in your haste, please remember it is "deride" feature that you are being requested to show. Not agreeing is not the same as "deriding", ok?



DTC,

Entry: deride
Function: verb
Definition: insult
Synonyms: banter, chaff, contemn, detract, disdain, disparage, dump on, flout, gibe, jeer, jolly, kid, knock, laugh at, lout, mock, pan, pooh-pooh, put-down, quiz, rag, rally, razz, rib, ridicule, roast, scoff, scorn, slam, sneer, taunt, twit

Anyways, I'm not interested in a semantics wrestle match with you.
I will also give you the benefit of doubt and admit that you MAY be much wiser than me, with opinions grounded on much more that I can ever aspire to, penchants and all.
Now, can you please suggest how the board should move forward? In your exalted opinion, are we allowed to voice personal opinions or experiences? Also please explain the fine points in furthering the discussion in a constructive way by calling people clowns. Thanks.

In so far as GiG's post is concerned, and I have said it before to, people who fabricate stories only to promote their notions and prejudices are worth derision and thus that's what the post got.



I'll hold you to that! By the same token you should be able to handle the same derision if someone thinks(rightly or wrongly) your thoughts are worthless too. Agreed?

Are u really not getting the point or are u again deliberately trying to twist issues?
The mockery was not for his thoughts because there is nothing new in them. Such thoughts have been floating around this board for as long as I can remember. If it was thoughts that I had to ridicule, you would have found me doing that long back, which I haven't.
My ridicule of GiGs post was because it was a bloody load of bull!! Get it?? Getting multiple offers like he did in two weeks of landing, talking to none other than Presidents and VPs, and ascribing this miraculous success to the 15 things that I brought out from his post was nothing but crock. You give shit, you get shit!
And so, yes, I am ready to face derision and mockery if I am caught lying in my posts. OK??

PS. And oh, I am still waiting for you to point out those posts where I have derided other success stories so that your comment below can be justified.

Kap, good for you that you have not.
I'm not sure what you have against BL but did not see anything he wrote that I object to. About Crenshaw, when I did choose to involve myself with CD again, I did see him spar verbally with DTC and Mercury who are no angels themselves. My comments are on that thread. I do not see him say anything objectionable on this thread.



angels no, but.....

Sir, at no point in my time on this forum have I used expletives or other such undersirable language.

That is all.


:rolleyes:

And others are going to be the judge and the jury(to condemsn you a liar...fairly or unfairly) on that ...just like you have been on this thread...in your infinite wisdom, of course! Thanks for agreeing.

Find the thread I made the comment in...and you will find the answer.

DTC, now I have answerd your question. Can we move forward? Some constructive tips for immigrants perhaps? Something only you can figure out, maybe? Thanks

Isn't that funny? You lay an allegation on me, that I am ALWAYS deriding success stories. I ask you to substantiate that charge and ask for evidence. You become angry. Why?

I don't know! Move it forward any which way you want.

Sure! And I hope they are not lies.

It would be very interesting to know what you found "constructive" in the post from GiG, that in your opinion I committed a crime by interrupting it??

DTC,
We could play this game forever :). Anger is not the feeling I have. Pity is more like it :)

Anyway, the important thing is that we are free to move the board in whatever way we want. Thats a welcome change from when we were told (by you) that personal opinions and experiences have no place on this board.

Yes I do see a lot of constructive things in GIGs post. I've already said that 'selling ones abilities' is what I really identify with.

Now for some consrtuctive topics from you. Will you oblige?
