We've less excuse than they do for resorting to such measures when too often we've been on the receiving end of it, and it's something we should be very aware of throwing around. Hostility or bad faith don't even come into it for me, it's just a matter of avoiding outright hypocrisy. If you felt the need to explain because you felt my post was a swipe at you, it wasn't; I saw your post and appreciate the acknowledgement. It was a general bewilderment towards a trend of thinking I've seen from multiple users I felt needed comment. That post I replied to in particular was especially odd to me, because there are many reasons to think that comparing Magnai and G'raha is like apples and oranges without falling on such out of place reasoning.

The way it seems intended, as Brinne said above, is "lots of people agree with me, so I must be correct on some level."

    Just going to quote what I said, since I don't think you're listening.
    I don't think even you know what argument you're trying to make at this point.

    Pretty sure it's not against TOS to quote someone. Especially when you told me "it's easy" to find. Well,. I legit looked, and I didn't know what you were talking about. Even Brinne isn't sure who you're talking about. But if we're both gonna end this line of conversation confused, then that's fine, I guess.

    I'm pretty sure I was rather clear. Do you know what "Weasel Words" are, and why they're a bad way to argue?

    Incidentally, I apparently need to tick "Democaracy" off the bingo card too.
