Rivya,
I am going to quote you again
I am not against AD or RR. And I am not here only for a love story. But what I am here for is to see some quality television with my family. Something I dont feel disgusted with and enjoy watching. I guess this is too much to ask,since a large number of viewers seem to enjoy this repulsive track, and good for them.. From here I argued, quality went down the drain way before this current track. I gave concrete examples. Whether you lamented the loss in quality earlier or not, is not my concern. My concern is to make an argument that this loss in quality has been going on for a while and that it is not only this track that is repulsive as you seem to imply from the above quote. I don't know how that is twisting your words. You may feel overwhelmed at the thought of making the same arguments over and over again and that JW and BW have already been criticized in the past so why bother, but I don't. So I mentioned loss in family values from earlier tracks. I hope it is acceptable to you that I do have a choice about the way I make my arguments.
It is not my intention to hurt you or twist your words. I don't make an argument that way, I don't try to win that way. That is not my style.
I don't even think it is about any one person winning or losing. I do concede a point when I find an argument appeals to me, witness Archie's point on why Pia stayed on. If you can understand my stance, I would love to continue chatting, otherwise I really don't have the emotional energy or the inclination to continue defending myself about whether i twisted words or not. I get along and understand Shoba and Sun's point of view just as I understand Bavie's. I don't have to justify my friendships on or off forum to anyone and I don't base my arguments on who my friends are. My fr4iendships are apart from my POV.
Anyway even though it is unnecessary, I will apologize again if you think I twisted your words. Perhaps it is best to not dialogue if there is so much emotional repercussion. I certainly don't have the time or inclination. Sorry I stopped by your thread.
Abha
