" Turtledove wrote: Saying "Lab is shit" is a complaint about labyrinth. Since it was a statement in context in a thread entitled "Over 320 threads discussing labyrinth problems with over 880 posters in support". Now if it was a post in a thread entitled "Things to hate about mapping" then I'd have to agree that it would be someone voicing their complaint that they don't like the laboratory not the labyrinth. Yes, I know what he wanted to say, you knew what xavathos wanted to say and zrevnor knew very well who 'they' are. We were all playing dumb so I suggested you to go all the way and not include the post on the list since it makes no sense in that case.

He wasn't making a point that relied on the exact subgroup among those being 'devs' or 'community members' so there wasn't even any need to ask who exactly he was talking about. And I was kidding, of course, the answer is not 'aliens', regardless of what certain disheveled would-be experts claim.

By "they", he meant he and his merry band of forum bullies.	Posted by Deleted on May 31, 2017, 6:36:24 PM
I actually find it difficult to believe that people arguing that "Lab is shit" is not a post in support of people arguing that labyrinth is boring tedious and not fun are being serious?

" Xavathos wrote: " Turtledove wrote: You're arguing that "Lab is shit" is praise for Labyrinth? That is interesting and understandable if you're a creature like a dung beetle that loves eating shit. Assuming that you're not a dung beetle though, I'm a bit confused why you would think that "Lab is shit" would be praise? I know that toddlers will sometimes smear shit on the wall next to their crib but I'm very certain that Matt does not like eating shit or smearing shit on walls. Do you not think Matt meant it as an expression of a highly derogatory opinion of the labyrinth? That's a baseless assumption, just like the majority of your other posts. You put words in other people's mouths by assuming you know what they mean with everything they say. Newsflash, my friend, you're off the mark on quite a lot of them. I wasn't arguing that this person even likes the lab, clearly he/she doesn't in the least. But I'd hardly call "lab is shit" constructive feedback. Therefor, does it really deserve a place on this list? I guess if you're desperate to fill this list to give it more make-believe weight to counter anyone who would even attempt to disagree, it holds merit to add an opinion like this to it. But in a real situation where we're trying to debate whether or not a core part of a game should change, "lab is shit" is not a valid argument, come on. We're not living in the stone age anymore, are we? So... next time you feel like assuming someone else's opinion, don't. Ask them for it instead. Trust me, it helps in this whole discussion thing and makes others much more inclined to take their time to give you a reasonable, constructive reply. If you think we're so bad, then set the example, because I haven't seen it from you or your buddies yet. And yeah, I'm taking the moral high ground on this and yeah I know I haven't been super nice to you either these last few weeks. But someone should start changing, right? Or do we need another thread with 500 pages and signatures for that? Dearest Xavathos, you are not reading what was written. Please note that when a sentence ends in a question mark, "?", it means that the sentence is a question. The questions we're discussing were trying to question what you possibly meant. If my question carried a false assumption as to what you meant it was done simply as a way of explaining a possible explanation of what you meant. If that is not correct then just answer the question and explain "No, I didn't think it was praise of lab". Then my response would have been something obvious like then it is a criticism of lab voiced in support of disliking lab and so would mean it should be part of the list of people that have posted in support of the idea that labyrinth has problems? Basically your post made very little sense because "Lab is shit" is obviously an opinion that was made in support of the idea that labyrinth is a boring, tedious, not fun piece of shit. Which is exactly what the core part of the list includes! The only assertion I really made in my post about someone else was, "I'm very certain that Matt does not like eating shit or smearing shit on walls." Somehow I don't think that was what you were going on about though? Over 430 threads discussing labyrinth problems with over 1040 posters in support (thread # 1702621) Thank you all!

Sorry raics, I seriously do not understand anything you wrote, except your assertion that I knew what Xavathos meant. What Xavathos said made no sense to me so what you said can't be correct.

It is also true that many/most(?) on the list are labyrinth haters. I guess that you're trying to argue that someone that obviously likes playing PoE but says they hate labyrinth are not strongly implying that they would like it changed? Sorry but that seems like a silly argument. I'm not arguing anything here. I just think it's funny. I know your list is full of lab haters.

People speaking about others as "bullies" either are trolling, don't actually fully understand what "bullying" means, or have a problem on their own.

To be bullied you need to be outnumbered, outgunned or both and it's a bit tacky talking about either here, all of us have a head and a keyboard and in this case you can even claim advantage in numbers. Moderators could bully you if they wanted but that's beyond the power of a regular joe that stumbles upon this thread. If you have faith in your cause, a degree of opposition should only reinforce it but if you aren't sure of what you're doing... that's a different story altogether. The way I see it, you should be thankful there's someone else to talk to here besides yes men. There are posters here who have a long established pattern of going ad hominem.[...] Calling someone a bully is a marvelous example of resorting to ad-hominem. Ironic I know. SSF is not and will never be a standard for balance, it is not for people entitled to getting more without trading.	Posted by Fruz#6137 on Jun 1, 2017, 12:56:33 AM Quote this Post
Has anyone thought it might be better to form a Google Doc and put all the people who hate the lab,in favor of possibly changing the lab or want to decouple the ascendancy points from the lab on there instead of just noting it in the forums. It would be far easier to see and would just be one click away instead of jumping to different pages in the thread.
