Take this as an example.

Sportsczy has not once.

NOT ONCE counterattacked my points and always resorts to arrogance and cowardice out of sheer defeat.

If your reading this sportsczy.

Your officially out of your league.

Learn from Nick, babun, penguin, etc or any other madrid fan.

When presented with a challenge of debate, take it on instead of running away.

Not a single time he has come up with anything to convince me.

the faceplam was for???

"Your officially out of your league." that quote alone is for
I dont really care what they "fought" over but when i read posts like that on internet, i just find it retarded way to talk and its worthy of facepalm in my book at least.

so it takes yall a minute to read a paragrah(Less than a paragraph) long rant on a forum...

Nobody is expected to agree with others opinions. Mutual respect is the only necessity.

The worst excuse ever, bro If you're in a community, you need to have SOME niveau. If you completely disregard others opinions then you're welcome to talk to yourself in the mirror, no one would give a damn
Another hint, if different people regardless of their position agree on the same matter and you don't then there could be something wrong with ' your opinion' Think about it a little bit Scroll down after you've read this passage























Either you apologize or you'll need to rename your account

How is that an excuse? You're telling me I'm not entitled to my opinion regardless of what it is? Then you threaten me?

This isn't play school where we all play sing along and hold hands in a circle. The fact of the matter is that not everyone on earth who is familiar with the player shares your point of view. Majority may, but I promise you not everyone does. And this sacrifices the validity of their opinions?

I don't disregard any opinions. I understand and respect that many think the world of him. I don't based on my decisions and analysis of the player..that makes me the problem? Because I have thoughts and opinions?

I've shown nothing but respect to you since day one and I'd appreciate the same.

(Yes this is the first face palm I have ever given)

Don't care what anyone thinks.

Point is, sportszysy is simply a meek coward who has backed off every single debate I have put up since the Goal forums where I owned him completely in the El Classico threads. I asked him to come up with threads in which I have been proven wrong by facts. He didn't do that.

I asked him to debate on my discussion points regardless of what he feels about them, he couldn't do that.

What does he do? He puts me on an ignore list so that he doesn't have to see my posts and whine about them not concurring with his.

Possibly the only poster I can call in all my posting years pathetic.

Pure hypocrite.

chill arq.. before you pop a vain in one of your biceps

That's the madrid section for you

lmaoooo.. yooo I'm diennnnn. done.

so funny, but so trueeeeee

The way I see it, a forum is not a battleground where you have to out-debate your opposition into submission. It is merely a place for people to express their views and agree with some and disagree with others and from time to time with new information people may change their opinions.

I would also put someone on ignore if they were consistently trying to challenge or duel me. Rather go play a video game or something where you can win win WIN to inflate your enormous ego further.

This thread has gone so wrong in so many levels it’s amamazing…

This is a thread of the year, has to be. The guy who called Dinho a player without class, was probably getting annoyed with the bandwagon. Only explanation for his words

Arquitecto wrote:This performance is hugely exaggerated as set-pieces were good but his overall play was not game changing.




Keep in mind this was Ghana and most of the match was played with 10 men.

I have to agree with this. But I would also add that some of ronaldinho passing was pretty good, especially his crosses.

I think this might be relevant, sure its goal.com but what they hey.



Fernandinho

7.5

Looked dynamic and provided a pinpoint throughball to Leandro for the first goal. Was sacrificed at half-time.




Lucas

8.0

Acted like the senior figure in the middle of the park and used the ball intelligently, if not excitingly, all evening,




Ronaldinho

7.0

– A few flicks here and there but nothing persistent. Dropped deep to try get in the game yet found it hard going, flittering in and out of action

Arq is mad...you don't like him when he's mad

"The more i read Arquitecto posts, the closer i get to putting him on my ignore list lol.

Really need to buy the "football for dummies" book bro."

Wrong.

I couldn't care less to "duel" with him. But he catalysed the reaction and didn't bring anything to back his point up. I responded, he chose to ignore.

Thank you Dani.

Case and point. Yes, it may be Goal.com, but it shows that my opinion is in fact plausible (if not completely right).

But then again, I guess from a guy who thinks Nasri's move for cash was honourable, I don't expect much insight.

Edit: and I'm not mad guys, but I do have to admit annoyed. lol

Yep. Goal.com is really credible. I surrender.

Btw, i never said Nasri's move to City was honorable. I said that it was good business and understandable. It was definitely not dishonorable as many people were making it out to be. He was willing to fulfill his contract until next summer and then move. He didn't break any agreements.

I could go on a long rant like Arquitecto's usual nonsensical diarrhetic essays. But then again, that's why he's on my ignore list. I unfortunately displayed his last post and felt compelled to respond lol. Won't happen again.

Hmmm well in light of the new information, I see your point. Sportsczy is passionate character, as he has admitted sometime in the past. Reading opinions that he does not concur with usually get him a bit revved up, call it that French arrogance (Just kidding Sports). I think a lot of the time, forums in general struggle with people who are very forward or suffocating with their own interpretations.

Sadly, (barring blatant trolling) those people also fall victim to being banned in the end. Usually they don't give a cr#p about it and just conclude that they will take their opinions elsewhere. I would urge that if you are personally baited or provoked it is rather better to leave it alone.

To anyone who chose to read this babble, I would urge that people contribute opinions with a certain open mindedness so as to take into account contrary opinions to their own.

Lets see less of that: "No you're completely wrong, this is why you are wrong. You are a Moron!" and replace it with something like " I understand your point, but I have to disagree in certain areas because of [insert your argument]"

Maybe I'm being too academic about this but I have experience in formal debating, and usually arguments produce better fruit if people take into consideration all points from all sides.

Consult my response to Arquitecto, lets try not to be bitchy man.

In all seriousness... who takes message boards that seriously. i certainly don't. I talk smack every now and then just to get things going a little bit. But it's never truly personal. This is entertainment to me. Just having fun.

I may have a lot thicker skin than most here because i'm older. Cursing and personal attacks are very common where i come from (Wall Street). So you just let it slide and actually laugh at it.... because although they're worded as personal attacks, it's actually more of a harsh sense of humor.

Arquitecto and I are throwing some mud back and forth. Gets a little tense. And then we move on. It's really not that big of a deal... at least to me.

Very responsible and respectful post. I'd shake your hand if I could.

am I the only one that finds Arq's long posts entertaining to read? lol

hrealmadrid wrote:Let me define class: class is when you can stay at a peak performance level for the majority of your career.

Is that your definition of class ? Seems slightly different than the globally accepted one

Arq's posts are long? I never really found that to be the case.

Other then his of topic picture thread post, but that was very much needed.

I know what you mean Sports, I'm particularly thick skinned myself. I'm saying that we need to be mindful of different types of people, some are just very sensitive little bunnies that do not take kindly to being called dumb or moronic or whatever.

I know its all in the spirit of good fun anyways but people cannot read into the way you are expressing something just by reading the text. I think Babun does particularly well with his placement of smileys to exhibit the light-heartened manner of the "insult".

Anyways, I completely see your side too... also I agree that Forums should not be taken soooo seriously, but some people are just serious in general
