I am very fond of internet anonymity, especially the capacity to appear in typescript and not visuals. Alma has the right not to supply a visual if he doesn't want to. It's up to me to gauge the reliability and veracity of what some anonymous person on the internet is saying. I think over the very long term, it's safe to say you get a good picture on particular topics, if the person maintains an even stance on a topic. It's Bijou's right to still have withheld judgement on Almalieque's veracity, but as far as I'm concerned, I'm inclined to believe Alma is an officer in the USA.

I've never believed he was in the military. I think he knows someone who is, and that's where he gets his info.

He's totally in the military. He's too mind numbingly stubborn and ill-informed to be employed elsewhere. He's what everyone expects from the military. He is the cliche.

Thanks.

I have no problem with providing pictures, but what's the point if you're just going to deny them as well? I posted my transcript and that wasn't believed.

Do you really believe that? Why would I go through the trouble of doing that? To get more "respect"?. It's already obvious that people on this forum think the military is stupid and people have claimed that I try to come off "intelligent", so wouldn't that be a conflict of interest? What possible benefit would I get from saying that I was in the military in this forum?

Except I didn't realize the lack of respect for the military on this thread till after the fact. The only other explanation would be the belief that I wanted to gain "respect" from the forum, but that is also a conflict of interest with my "persecution complex".

So, it just doesn't make any sense any way you look at it for me to lie about it and for you not to believe it.

Just like people thought I was lying about the DADT training. There's no reason to lie about it.

Which is still later. If you look at my posts, I primarily was on the RDM and main forums. Then I took some breaks from the OoT all together.

That was mainly to bring a little levity to the thread, but two months after your first post is "much later"? In any case, 74% of your posts are in either the Asylum or Out of Topic forums.

If you want to amend it say you didn't start posting primarily in the OoT and Asylum until much later, I'll give you that. Of course, I fully expect you to just say that that is what you meant in the first place and claim it's my fault for interpreting it differently.

Regardless, you've been posting primarily in the OoT and Asulym since 2008. If over the past 3+ years you legitimately haven't figured out how they are going to treat someone's your military status, you're far more dense than any of us have given you credit for being.

Edited for a higher degree of accuracy.

Spoonless, you should consider going out for a jog or something. Honestly, you are researching Alma's posting history and coming up with stats.

I'm at work, or I would. Besides, doing a couple forum searches is hardly strenuous. It was mostly just morbid curiosity to see how Alma posted when he started. It's pretty entertaining to see what people posted like years ago, and I was fairly amused that his first foray into the OoT was to post in a thread about homosexuals.

Does he even get involved in other threads?

Few of us probably think the military is stupid. All of us think you are stupid. You're confusing the two.

It is now, but most of them weren't. It's much later, because even though my first post in OoT was 2 months apart, majority of my time was spent in RDM/main forum.

That's exactly what happened. And guess what? I commissioned in 2006, 2 years before I primarily started posting in OoT. (I didn't start posting in the Asylum till this year I think.). It was in 2008, when I believe I mentioned anything about the Army. That's when people thought I was a poor, uneducated white woman for wanting Clinton to win.

So, as I said. I didn't know the ignorance and disrespect towards the military till AFTER the fact.

Thank you for doing all of the leg-work for me to make that point. I fully expect you place the blame on me for not explaining myself properly for you being right in one area, but overall wrong in the topic at hand.

Not at all. With numerous statements made throughout this forum, it is obvious that people think the Army is full of stupid people. Don't try to back out of it now. Man up and accept what you say.

I already said I'd concede the point if you meant posting primarily. Your initial post said "started posting". I'm not sure what you're saying I'm wrong about with regards to the overall topic at hand.

Bolding is mine. If you first introduced being in the military back in 2008, and have been berated for it on and off over the past 3+ years (for surely this is not the first thread you've been made fun of for being military in), how could you be surprised by how people responded in this thread?

If you meant "on this forum," I will give you that point as well. I'm not unreasonable. I assumed you meant "in this thread".

My bad, I meant on this forum. I was wrong.

Once again, logic fails you.

Let me show you why:

"That school is full of stupid people."
"That school is stupid."

See the difference?

The army has a very, very large population of stupid people, yes. It's because recruitment tactics specifically target them.

But the army as an entity isn't stupid. It does many stupid things, yeah. But it's actually an extremely intelligent organization. Thing is, 90% of its members could be three IQ points away from licking windows and it would still be an extremely intelligent, able entity.

I'm happy to admit that I don't like the military. No problem with that at all. But that has very, very little to do with the soldiers and everything to do with those top 10% of members (AKA, the ones who by and large are probably highly intelligent).

You're trying to pull the same ridiculous argument that conservatives threw at people trying to end the wars overseas for the past 10 years--like that somehow means we are against the soldiers.

Now, I'm happy to admit I'm against YOU, especially you in a military capacity. But that has nothing to do with the military itself.
