nor am I interpreting it as a "massive insult".

why are you taking me literally?
All joking aside now, I think we need to be on the lookout for this dangerous individual with her compliments and personalised goodbyes in case she comes back and flatters people again. We need to start interrogating newcomers and screening for any hint of an Irish accent in case godforbid she returns on a different account to be nice to people some more...
Lmao XD It's amazing how seriously they take this "forum mind games politics" stuff. Simple compliments turn into evil plotting to ... trick us into feeling liked or smth. That's one step away from taking over the world.
You realize that all I said was "ahaha what a bullshitter" and that everyone else in this thread somehow made it the scandal of the century? XD

Why all this drama. There is no need for this.
Welcome to SC?

I don't feel like I have anything to lose from what she's doing, but it's still enough to raise a wary eyebrow of suspicion.
Who cares...
Learn to relax a little. Not everyone is out to hurt you.

I don't think anyone here right now's really out to hurt me. Should I be concerned that someone here is?
I care mostly from preferring to have a handle on how people work.
Quote where I said anything, anything at all, about her reasons for leaving, and I'll stop laughing my ass off at you making a fool of yourself. XD
Does what I'm writing even get to you? Try to make an effort to pay attention, I don't have the time to type essays or repeat myself endlessly.

Don't backtrack and contradict yourself. Both you and Turn suspected ulterior motives for Haart to write a kind goodbye thread ("Never trust anyone who flatters everyone."). You can't talk of ulterior motive, if you think haart was genuine in her leaving this site.
He accused you of having ego-related reasons and used the word "zeal". For the last time, we are not interchangeable.
And you brought up our last argument, namely the part where you called me a hypocrite, to paint my responses to you as some sort of personal vendetta. Didn't have the attention span to read my whole sentence, Crow, or are you purposefully cherry picking and diverting the attention away from my message? Let's try again:
It flew over your head. What I said was: "Do you usually call people out on their bullshit only if you have some personal ego related reason to do so? What has Haart done to you and Crow, then?", after you accused me of calling you out on your bullshit with "zeal" for personal ego-related reasons (haart's flattering or our last argument).
This was addressed to both you and Turn since both of you were accusing me of the same thing. I covered both your parts in it.
I will treat you two as one package when it saves me time, because you basically repeat the same thing just to make double the noise and support one another, explain each other's posts and refuse to call each other on the mistakes you'd call anyone else.

The biggest shame about Haart leaving is that we now won't get past that bubble she's formed around herself. The most we saw of her insecurity was her need to prove a few details in older topics (shortly before editing the posts to not reveal too much).

So... laziness then, which is further elaborated on as seeing her and I saying the "same thing"? Lumping us together (or lumping people in general really) is likely to lead to many mistakes being made on your part. If you look more closely, you'll see that we aren't really parroting each other other than maybe some (not all) of what was displayed in the Judas topic.
Just because we're veering towards a similar message doesn't mean that we're outright repeating each other. We aren't even necessarily carrying the same opinion here, simply similar suspicions. We're able to "support each other's posts" as you call it from knowing each other well enough, and I tend to referentially say where pretty much anyone here's coming from when I can when the situation's fitting. For each of the times I've said things in your stead towards Spatial for instance, that didn't suddenly mean we one package (despite the fanfic written about us~), and to reference the body hair topic, lumping Crow and I together there makes only slightly more sense than me lumping you and Angee together for carrying similar views. While you're at it, you might as well discredit Syst's posts from him being with us right now, maybe even Tryp's posts from how he's spent some time with us, maybe others as well from having spoken with them over IMs instead of here.
She and I have plenty of disagreements (and agreements too) we don't vocalize here from not needing to, as we tend to discuss more in person. We also go about it through different tactics and rarely believe the same thing. Similar things? Maybe, not not often the same. There's been points on here where we've been on different pages. Another thing to figure: She and I are dating from having similar enough views in many regards, so it's no coincidence that we both will comment in a way that shows us on a similar track towards one another.
I tend to not call out a lot of mistakes I see here if I figure that either someone else will do it for me or if it'll get more done by not targeting it. I don't have some urge to correct everything I see, simply that which is worth correcting to get towards the next stage I'm after at the time. Many of the tactics you pointed out that she and I were using I don't agree with being the case either, but of course if I were to note that that'd just be me "defending her" again, right?
It'll be hard to take you seriously if you keep trying to use our coupling as reason to put her and I's words into each others mouths. If anything, this is likely a means of you rationalizing how two people might disagree with you without looking at the content itself, as from this topic for instance... two people in a way have agreed with her and I while barely being noticed. Not noticing them makes it easier to assume that this is transference related to the other day.
