Debater of the week #7:return_to_hades ;) - Page 5

I see the grill heating up fast and furious . Is it the embers from Hades or some of the unspent ones resurfacing from the days of Yore!

Almost lunch break at my end . Here goes some of my simple ones before BTV carries out his threat of a 1000 paged questionnaire -

1. Why did your MOTW not start on a Friday unlike the others?

2. Have you noticed any difference between the current and prior session of MOTWs ? If yes enumerate a few of them. Any suggestions?

3. Why do you think stalkers stalk? (both virtual and real) What could possibly motivate them? Is it against the COC to stalk someone? I remember a member being banned for it.

4. Name 3 members on DM who you think whine a lot ? What do you have to say to them?

5. Name 3 members seen as heartless villains of DM? Do you concur with that perception ? Why? Any suggestions for them?

Task time-

Some members of Debate Mansion have been missing in action.

i. Gauri – took a self ban long ago.

ii. Mindbender - behaves like the will-o-the wisp. Now here, now gone.

iii. Karandel – No trace of him. Last I knew he had recovered from his neck pain.

iv. Souro- A troop of Aliens swooped upon his MOTW thread and whisked him away.

Investigate and devise a strategy to get these members back to DM . You could assign roles to as many members as you wish to assist you in implementing your task.

That's it … for now.

@ LP - KAL actually asked for it by posing those questions. If he was fine with finding someone else's name in that list he should also be fine with finding his own name there. Not sure why he said he is done with the questioning though. He could always change his mind as usual.

Some of the opinions expressed could appear as harsh to some new members here but as you may have noticed by now , most of the regular members do not seem to mind much. 😛

hmm..what is going on here?

The fox is fine with his name in there. I replied to lonelyplanet already and said whatever RTH said is fine with me and it is me who asked this question. I also said there is no need to explain anything. And what is so bad in asking about 3 least favorite members and then one good thing about them? I have seen similar questions. Anyway there was no need to drag it

This is what I said

"Thanks Lonely. However let me say I did not mind and there is no chance of getting hurt. There is nothing new there or unexpected. lol. Also the questions are such that it will have such answers anyway.

RTH, no need to explain in my case. You should focus on answering pending questions"

Now do you want me to come out of monitor screen and sing a song and dance and shake and

therefore show that I have not turned into devdas after knowing I am disliked by RTH? lol.

how innocent of you. lol. thanks birdie.

Me and sweat? lol.

- I think one sweats when one doesnt make a cut that one wanted to make. Here on forum I have no cuts to make and therefore no reason to sweat.

- My reaction is driven by my mind and not RTH. Despite her take on me i dont dislike her. I have problems with some of her views however i separate that from the person. One has both good and bad views but that doesnt make her a person to be disliked. That is how I think.

Lets move on and focus on question and answers. she is doing fine job and I appreciate her effort. I already spent my foxy set and hence dont have anything else to ask. If the motw is stuck I may come up with more. lol.

Thanks Miss Angie and Mr. Num. I appreciate your input and hope the fox was able to clarify the situation. lol

Great answers all as expected and you get a 🤗 for the last answer. Now I have the RTH stamp on IF 😆

And please don't remain socially awkward. You are a great person to know and be friends with and no one should be deprived of an opportunity to get to know you better and like you better for it.😳

Now-a-days all my favorite people on IF are MIA and so am I. Hope to see all of you guys active again in next BB season. Till then sayonara and keep rocking DM with your wit and intellect.

Haha, you don't need the RTH stamp. You have the Battle Axe Stamp. It is more powerful. 😆

There's very few people I actually talk to. A lot is thanks to Axe. I wouldn't even know Genie if not for her.

Yes, most of the cool kids are really inactive these days. I usually stay away as well. I haven't even posted much on twitter either. Except, I lack discipline, I get bored and start browsing IF again.

Anyway, I'm looking forward to the next BB season as well. Hopefully, all the fun folks will be there for some time pass . See you around more often though I hope. 🤗

Me and stalking? Seriously? Mind a little elaboration? 😆

Btw, congrats.

King Anu's questions are indeed awkward, put you in a fix kind of questions. 😆

I don't know, you always came off as someone who would keep a vigilant hawks eye watch on someone who rubbed you the wrong way. Kind of like "don't step a toe out of line, I'm watching". Hence, I picked you for stalking. It's just a perception, I don't know you as well as some others.

Thanks! 😊

Superb effort. I will let others join in the fun and ask you questions. Besided I havent got anything more to ask. Thank you. It was funny and great time pass.

King A

Thank God. I would have had to swear inappropriately if you had another never ending questionnaire up your sleeve. You certainly don't shy from the controversial questions either. Other ones are easy now. 😆

RTH, you give Summer an only 10 out of 100 in intelligence scale? Really? Just because he does not show off doesn't mean he doesn't have intelligence.

And Angie only 80??? Even below me in that scale?? 😆 I think she's the wisest of this section, never getting into useless debates, and while never putting too much effort in anything, when she does post, she posts really good thoughts.

And thanks for all the good words. 😳😆

EDIT - and Souro is gossipy? Really? I always thought he's just here for straight-forward debates. 😆

I don't think it is very bright to post articles instead of debating. But he's a really nice guy. Probably one of the nicest on DM. Never seen him pick a bone with anyone. But it is odd rating people on these scales. What is intelligence anyway? I can't manage to successfully change the head on my electric toothbrush or navigate my day without walking into walls in broad daylight. So you can infer the intelligence of the intelligence scale based on the intelligence of the poster. 😆

I actually planned to rate you much lower, but didn't want to hurt your ego. 😛

When he posts on the forums, Souro is very focused. He debates well and stays on task all the time. No messing around from him. But with his friends behind the scenes, I think he likes to chit chat and gossip a lot. I think a lot of the guys are like that. You too. Business on the forum, but whisper whisper in the background.

Good answers RTH - though I must say I never expected such simple logical answers to my crazy spree. Now I'll have to do some more excavations to get you to loosen up a little bit more and get really whacky.

OK - like the Terminator I'll be back but this time I want goofy answers to serious questions - get it girl

Haha, I didn't find them that wacky. Or maybe I'm just too much in a sober mood these days.

I'll look forward to your next set and see how wacky it is and how goofy silly crazy I can get with the answers. 😆

oh, i dont think old/ new member has anything to do with it. In fact, last time i was around these parts, it was certain old members who were insisting on taking things personally even though they were the ones running tabloid-type gossip columns on folks. It now so transpires that they even got a guy's meter reading raised just because he had the misfortune to mis-attribute a certain remark to a member😆. Mind you, the remark was factual. The side of the debate was correct. Just the attribution was incorrect. See how touchy some folks can be? They went out of their way to pin anything on the guy for a simple typo. 😆

in a way, that's life. Some folks have the ability to handle pesky characters, others dont.😆 Only thing i can say in my defense is i am never the first to rat on members👏👏 👏😆. I'd hate to run out of folks to oppose by ratting on them and running them out of town. 😆But going by past history, the reverse does not seem to be true. Trust me, I know. It hurt em enough to want to read the riot act to someone😆

for RTH and others=> what's MID? A person with multiple IDs operating at the same time, or someone who comes back after having (been) previously retired hurt? And why should it bother anyone if it's clear who that individual is? It's not as if they just unravelled the mysteries of the universe, or is it?😆

oh, thanks too for providing fodder for thought through your motw. You're doing great.👏
