[quote="Azdgari"]Isn't it a bit hypocritical that you go on a rant about how you hate that members fight over Kopa, then make a leering post that's clearly looking for a fight? The entire problem, the entire root of all the arguments and drama surrounding Kopa, is people who assert their opinions as fact and say things such as:
[quote] KOPA IS FICTIONAL.
GET. OVER. IT.[/quote]
[/quote]
The thing is, that IS a fact. Kopa does not exist in real life besides in books. I just don't get why people argue over it so much since he's just a character in a book created by people like us. And I'm not looking for a fight (I've calmed down now
) and I do admit that was a little (a lot) over the top, and I apologize for it, though I stand by my opinion (not concerning whether or not Kopa is cannon or fannon) that you all need to have opinions, but not rip out each other's throats over them.
[quote] And you went one beyond the 'my opinion is fact' and went and insulted quite a few members and treated us like children to be talked down to from your mighty perch. "boo-hoo. Your completely imaginary idol isn't considered official.", "if you think Kopa is real, then you need mental help." Pretty high and mighty. Let us know when you're ready to come down from up there and actually have a worthwhile discussion about Kopa. [/quote]
When I said "If you think Kopa is real, then you need mental help," was simply a joke. I wasn't refering to the issue of whether or not Kopa is cannon or fannon, I was referring to whether or not Kopa is a real life lion who you could see and touch. I didn't mean to insult anyone who believed Kopa was a member of the TLK universe, I meant it a different way.
And when I said "Ah, boo-hoo, your completely imaginary idol isn't considered official," I was trying to get my point across. Let me ask you something in which I hope you answer truthfully: Would you have taken my words into more or less account if I was not harsh abut it? I'm sure that many other people have tried to tell people that this arguement, while it may be fun for some people, is about changing people's opinions, and if they don't, then critisize them for it.
As for your the comment about me being "high and mighty," how can you use one post in which I blew my cool to determine my character? For all you know, I could be high and mighty all the time, or I could actually be quite humble. But then again, you may never know, since you went ahead and judged me from just an excerpt, and not had just asked me "why are you acting like this?" I just want to remind you that although there are many types of people on here from all different religions, cultures, races, countries, and even continents, we are all just people who make as many mistakes as the next person.
[quote]I don't give out bad karma, but if I did, you would certainly have earned it there. That's a far cry from the usually intellectual and well thought out posts I see from you. I completely respect your opinion but please try to be a little less aggressive and trollish when you express it.[/quote]
Trolling, you say? A troll would simply state their opinion, insult everyone, and then leave. I have come, stated my opinion, provided facts supporting my opinion, and tried not to insult people, though it appears I have utterly failed in that manner, and then cared enough to respond.
And I shall address the issue of me insulting everyone again: if I had wanted to insult you in the first place, I would have straight-up called you all dememented idiots. But I didn't, because you aren't all demented idiots. I know that all of you are intelligient beings who sometime get a little hotheaded when debating opinions (I, myself, and guilty of that as well).You can even see tha I said you are all intelligient, nice, and understanding people before I even began my rant.
I apologize for the long post (as well as any offense I have caused)
