I know that Happeh was before you joined here, but he was a guy who thought that we all were on the spectrum because we wanked too much.
Makes me wonder if Randy thinks we are all on the spectrum because we don't wank enough.

Speak for yourself, but I think I wank enough. I just don't feel I have to post about it after every time like some ppl around here.

true, but then flo doesn't feel the urge to tell us all about how he got up that morning, either.  ;)

:smarty:

Proof by exception. You made a blanket statement ("this place is only a safe haven for people who...") and I pointed out an example which didn't fall under that, rendering the blanket statement false.

Ah but I prefaced it by the word 'think', implying that it was only my opinion I was stating, not a fact.  ;)

Does that make sense?

 :laugh: It makes sense, but it just leaves us at the same "yeah, sure, you can speak your opinion, and I can speak mine, and we can disagree" impasse.

I agree with your analysis, Phlexor.  That's the way that I see Intensity as well.

I think that it's impossible to make Intensity a safe haven for all those people who have been rejected by other fora, simultaneously.

I'm not convinced of this yet. Probably it's impossible for all people, but I say it's possible for more people than most others think.


This think this place is only a safe haven for people who feel they have to speak their mind and have trouble keeping their mouth shut in other forums where its a rule.

(not that  I'm talking about myself or anything, am I Ozy)

Comparing this place to AI is like comparing Apples and Oranges.   :laugh:  AI is a support forum with some leeway for "spirited" debate.  I just follow the guidelines set by Crucibelle.

Yeah, but there were a few nut jobs there that were starting to drive me crazy. And I think that's what you get when those sort of people are protected. But each place has its use and I feel more uselful here, if that says anything.

It makes sense, more than a few people drove me crazy over there.   :hair:  And that was before I became Admin.   ::)    And I'm much more guarded there then I am here or on Morthaur's forum or The Drivel.  AI is basically dead and unlikely to ever revive, it's more or less a "read only" forum in every sense of the word except in fact.  Too much shit has happened there.   :-\

Also, I'll likely tell Cal that people are talking about him here, and see how long before his narcissism tempts him to come back and read it.

 ;D He told me where to stick it.

Now do you see, DD?

the gif Lucifer posted? yes I can see it now. 

... or are you asking if I can see why I should stop talking about him?

... or if I can see that trying to tighten up the probability distribution in one area makes other areas less definable?

Maybe for now, but, I'll wager that he'll be back soon.  If not with his current membership, but, with a sock puppet!   ;)
