Yet another Clamhoarding, Castling Discussion

I think we've already discussed this in a previous thread where Norfleet advocated "beatings" in which the Developers were involved. Whatever your personal feelings on the topic of child rearing, the use of physical punishment or not. Or the situation of Child Abuse and society's impact on it should not be taken to a personal level.

I doubt that he's capable of such exaggerations.

Hard to believe you seriously think Norfleet was advocating child-abuse during a discussion about Dominions 2 strategy. Looks like an attack of deliberate obtuseness to me.

Yes, I do believe that he was advocating just that. After all, it fits right in with his persona that came out in the spyware thread.

You might want to learn how to spell before you make an attempt at pithy remarks.

If you can't debate or rebut the content of what they said, attack their spelling?

Hey, don't diss the spelling attack. It's a time-honored distractionary technique that's proven its worth on Internet forums and chatrooms world-wide.

Proper spelling and grammar is absolutely essential, in all aspects of life! I'm an editor, so I should know!

Say... what's this thread about anyway?

You want a rebuttal? It won't be particularly different from what I've already written in many other threads and Messages here.

Anyways, here it is:

Once again, Grahame to the aid of hypothetical children who may be wounded by Norfleet's throw-away remark. These Boards are truly fortunate to have a champion of the people unafraid to take the thread as far off topic as needed. How I look forward to Grahame's next attempt to discredit his percieved enemies with commentary completely irrelevant to the topic at hand

First, you might want to learn how to spell my name, and various other words if you want a serious reply. Secondly, I'm objecting to the patronizing tone that Norfleet uses for just about every post where he discusses anything other than the most basic game mechanics. Thirdly, I happen to dislike it when he pretends that his long off-topic ramblings are somehow on-topic.
