Yttrstein, please take the time to read this, hopefully its the final post. By the way, nothing you have said, (in your previous post) shows you realize the extreme paranoia you have shown at me, (time and time again), at your mistaken belief I was modding you down. (I was NOT). Yet from your mistake belief, you have then inflicted on me, a sustained campaign of abusing my posts for weeks. Given the extent of your paranoid and wrongful belief in me, its no wonder I finally had enough of your behavior toward me.
If you treat others, as you have treated me (for weeks), then I suspect, given time, then sooner or later, you will encounter people, just like you, who will seek to bully you, as you bully them. If thats the game you lot want to waste your time on, then fine, its your choice, just leave me out of it. I have no interest in your games.
By the way, your cleverly condescending phrase "diagnosis by slashdot" is totally wrong (but then I very much suspect you know that). Its just another one of your attempted straw man arguments, aiming to imply discredit at me, to attempt to put an end to my point of view, so in effect, attempting to silence my point of view.
When profiling, there are common signs of behavior, which when taken together, indicate signs of personality disorders. It doesn't take long to pickup these warning signs, if you learn what to look for. (But it does take time to learn). But then I suspect you know all this. But many others don't, which is all part of your overall game.
Your condescending phrase is just another example of your need to twist words and imply other meanings. But you say it with such glee. I'm sure you pat yourself on your back, at the joy it gives you, thinking you can manipulate the views of others. You have shown this behavior, in a lot of your posts, but its very clearly shown from your comment here. "I like to think it takes a little more savvy than rushing into a thread" and this "Again, silencing you wouldn't exactly be rocket science, and would only require about as much energy as I've put into trolling you to date." ... You take such joy in knowing you can manipulate others. I know this behavior. Its yet another sign. Each sign pointing in the same direction.
Anyway, we originally got into this discussion, due to your need to manipulate my comments down, when I was talking about personality disorders weeks ago. I wasn't going to stand for that game, because the subject was too important and I could see your game, (as you so clearly illustrate in your own words).
I have no interest in profiling you or talking with you, as I've endured enough of your behavior towards me, thanks. I'm just sick of your paranoia directed at me. If someone is modding you down, then you need to look for someone else who is like you and would enjoy the trolling behaviors you enjoy. You need to look elsewhere, as I am not like you. I don't play your games, (but I am not stupid. I am mindful of the games. Some people are mindful of the games, without wishing to be a part of that game).
Or as an alternative, you could just learn to treat others with empathy?, but I guess that's unlikely, as all your current behavior has shown you are clearly too busy, thinking yourself clever, at attempting to manipulate perceptions of others. And credit where its due, for the most part, that methodology does work. Most people cannot see through attempts to manipulate them and the views of others around them. But then most people have a lot of trust in others and assume empathy in return. Most people are not mindful of the games some people attempt to play on them, but then most people spend their time learning other things. Its why I try to help some people understand the games that are possible to be played on them (and what patterns of behavior drive the need for someone to play these games). I'm trying to help people bring this manipulation to an end. I know its a futile goal, as there are more born every minute, that will never learn, but if I just help a few people learn, to even just glimpse some of the games, then hopefully I've helped to do some good in the world, no matter how small that end effect is. I guess that's why its resulted in us colliding. You want to play the games on others, to manipulate and at times undermine them and I want to bring the games to an end, to help people.
There are people in this world, who wish to help make it a slightly better world. I think its better to have that goal, than your current need to manipulate and at times undermine others. You are clearly very intelligent, but I think you are currently wasting your intelligence, when you could actually help make the world a better place, with your understand of the games that can be played on people (and the underlying reasons why these games are played). I would hope in time, you will learn to see its even more challenging (at the moment) to play the other side and try to help make the world a bit better place or at least, help others to learn to understand, so they can then help themselves. You clearly want to play it like its a mind game challenge. Maybe you should consider using your understanding, to learn how you can use it to help others.
