They listen to us!! (Eureka)

lol OP still derailing his own thread? You know, you don't need to have the last word, you're just gonna end getting your own thread locked.

It's the OP derailing and not the others. The last thing this topic needs is more less informed statements.

There is my proof, it is not what people chose in their settings, the issue is how you are treating people. This is also you insulting me, and you made a second post attacking me. Yes I did read, tyvm

The quote isn't an insult it's a fact. No author of a book or someone citing a book will take into account people's devices and how they modify it (there could be hundreds of configurations). That's not an attack that's pointing out how changing settings is your own circumstance. I don't think you know what insults mean.

Except you aren't citing a book, you are linking a post in a forum with hotlinks on each individual post.

Didn't I already tell you that you're starting arguments on nuances for no reason? You keep going in circles as if you weren't proven wrong/irrelevant already to the topic at hand.

Yeah, I quoted you, it is a fact you are insulting people, and attacking me, along with others that tried to help you

kettle black

kettle white?
You have no real arguments so you resort to false equivalencies.
Where are the insults? You're accusing people of something they didn't do and act like someone insulted you.

Noun

pot calling the kettle black

(idiomatic) A situation in which somebody comments on or accuses someone else of a fault which the accuser shares.

I think it's a case of the pot calling the kettle black when she says he is obsessive.

In other words, your quote "Didn't I already tell you that you're starting arguments on nuances for no reason?" applies to you, thus, kettle black, your reply to me makes no sense. I am simply showing you the real world, do with my advice as you wish. It was not a "soapbox" as you put it, and everything I said is 100% truth, and supported with your own posts.

Oh my god. Almost to 8 pages and this “debate” is still going on? This is a discussion forum. Not a university term paper, masters thesis, or dissertation. Personally, I think it’s much easier to link to the exact post you are referencing, which this forum gives you the ability to do, rather than link a page and basically tell people to go find it. It has nothing to do with the “proper” way to cite something, because this isn’t a term paper. It’s a forum thread.

I thought this thread was supposed to be about Eureka rewards, but it’s still about the “proper” way to cite a source. Which is irrelevant here.

The TC chooses to keep auguring about these irrelevant points though. It would be as you say if the TC would just say "thank you for the advice" like most people, like other people pointed out. instead they chose to keep auguring to argue.

So if the TC is derailing their own thread, is that the new topic or what?

Keep in mind what the TC said to me:

It is clear you didn't read the thread at all. Anyone changing their posts per page settings are at fault here. If you bought a digital book which you could arrange differently it's up to you to change back to default. Instead some people here are getting into petty nuances just for the sake of argument

So go suggest SE remove the options of how meny posts to display per page? I mean... wth?
