The best thing you have seen on the internet today?

chucky, those comments come across as very negative and abusive toward SamNZ. Are you meaning to directly insult him?

Your wording in the above post is not acceptable for boardworld forums. Consider an apologie or explanation please.

Sure, spaz, I’l provide “an explanation”.

It shouldn’t “come across as very negative and abusive toward SamNZ”. My words are actually genuinely consolatory.

I’ve accepted the fact that sometimes SamNZ acts the way he does not because he’s deliberately trying to be more annoying than a solitary mosquito in a bedroom in the dark of night, but because he simply lacks the cognitive ability to know any better. As such, I’m going to attempt to be more tolerant of the ill-informed, misguided drivel he regularly aims in my direction.

We all know the saying, “Don’t bring a knife to a gunfight”. Well if the most SamNZ has at his disposal is the intellectual equivalent of a blunt stick, it’s hardly a level playing field - so, in future, I’ll make an effort to take that into consideration.

Y’know . . . just because I care.

Ffs chucky.. stop belittling everyone that “doesn’t meet your level of intellectual standard” all your doing is making yourself look like a meglomaniacal pretentious douchebag..

Which is just going to turn everyone against you for being nasty for what is seemingly no reason..

( I don’t have a problem with you, even though you’re the only person I’ve had an argument with on these forums, but I look past that.. Arguing online is just ridiculous. So just ignore Sam and put it behind you..  It’s honestly not worth all the crap you will cop for it.)

For f*cks sake chucky give it a f*cking break. At first i thought it was funny the running wars, now its getting pathetic.

Well, as it was SamNZ who initially took a shot at me, and not the other way around - don’t you think you should be directing your rant at him?

I don’t know what that was about maybe I have missed a fair bit of the background but as a stand alone post it was abusive and unapologetic, agree to disagree and ignore each other if required.

Exactly…


Who cares who started it..Are we in primary school with a point the finger and blame everyone else attitude??

No we are not..

I don’t see Sam retaliating, just you..  so be the bigger person and ignore it and end the dispute?

I see your point, h0z, and it’s a valid one. However, shouldn’t I have just as much right as anyone else to defend myself - regardless of the ineptitude of my attacker?

If I challenged SamNZ to a freestyle snowboarding competition, I’d imagine he’d kick my arse. If he posted on here that he was a better freestyle snowboarder than me, I’d accept that as the truth. The difference here is that, unlike SamNZ, I’d know better than to challenge him in the first place.

Hopefully he’ll learn from this, and refrain from biting off more than he can chew in the future.

Defend all you want.. but keep it in that thread? Quite a few people have been confused as to where this came from.. as his post wasn’t attacking you in this thread… there for your post came across as attacking him… ( which makes you come across as the ‘bad person’, even though I do understand the point you are making..)

Everyone is entitled to an opinion, his is different from yours, and what you believe is right. Its like arguing over religion.. not worth it and everyone is right and wrong in different aspects.. so its pointless.

But for everyone else sake on this forum.. just ignore it and know that you’re the better person? Isn’t that enough?

Oh, I see where some of you may have missed the fact that his comment in this thread WAS attacking me - but in reference to another thread. Therefore, my comment “came across as attacking him”, when in actuality, it was the other way around. Apologies for that misunderstanding.

Perhaps, when arguments are limited to “opinion” alone. I make a point, however, of limiting my arguing to areas in which I possess enough knowledge/insight/experience to KNOW I’m “right”.

Depends on what type of cabin you want.
The basic cabin I THINK is around $5-600 per person, cabins are 4 share.

The top spec ones can range up to $1500 per person i believe.

This is all I’ll say: My original post was merely pointing out the irony in the video posted compared to the previous thread where you were against such things. I’m not sure that I would call it attacking - definitely it was going to be provoking at the least, though I did not mean for it to produce such comments of distaste. My apologies there.

What’s more hilarious than that is these statements I have quoted. The fact you think you’re better than me, in any way. And no, I’m not saying you’re not better than me. I would just never actually go and put myself up on such a high horse like that.

When you lose the petty insults while debating and stick to arguing the topic instead of running around yourself in circles saying “I’m not going to answer that, you obviously can’t process it.”, I’ll take you and your opinions more seriously.

That is all. I will not participate further in derailing this topic.

There was no actual “irony in the video posted compared to the previous thread . . .”. Once more, you attempted to take a stab at me, and failed dismally. Time and time again, you have displayed your inability to adequately comprehend and process information presented to you. There’s no genuine “debate” from you, because that involves specifically “arguing the topic” - NOT twisting arguments to suit yourself and irrationally interjecting irrelevant bullshit simply to suit your own deluded agenda.

If I state that it’s not worth my time constantly explaining things to you, it’s because you have repeatedly proven this to be true. What you incorrectly interpret as “petty insults” is, in reality, me simply telling it exactly how it is - minus the veil of petty, politically correct, social convention. If you’re offended by the truth, that’s your problem, not mine.

Just to be clear - my comments in this thread were not intended to perpetuate the argument, but to end it once and for all.
