Another issue with the guy is that he has temper tantrums and is rude, yet when other people behave that way he uses it as a reason to ban them or question their types.
I also remember him taking issue with consentingadult talking about him, yet at same time niffweed talks about other people in a personal fashion.
When someone is rude or obnoxious to another then it's not uncommon to respond in kind. He's said some stuff about Joy for instance so it's not unsuprising if discojoe could respond as he has here, but then I live in the real world.
But why don't people act appropriately, rather than act how niffweed supposedly acts? If a self-acclaimed 'healthy' person immitates an 'unhealthy' person, in what sense is the 'healthy' person healthy?
At least niffweed beats you all at his own game, while you all lose at yours.
.....the law of karma applies.
and so it shall apply to those who apply it.

He's a fundamentally mean-spirited and unscrupulous dick and I disagree vehemently with some of his socionics as well as his mis-characterization of me, but he's also done a lot for the community, writes high-quality information and I generally like him.
Now that's nitpicking.

It's not really much of an honor. I don't think niffweed will feel any sort of honor, seeing that he reads this. So I must persist to draw something meaningful this evening:
i'd say nifweed needs an esfp to whip him into shape. and i mean that in the nicest possible way
today is a gift, that's why its called the present

You misspelled appreciation! That is pretty embarrassing...
Well, you're defining what's an appropriate response here, apparently. Although I can see what you are saying, I think, it doesn't mean that others will - or rather - others will agree with you. For instance, it could be said that you are turning the other cheek, others may take the attitude of an eye for an eye. Now, it can also be said that it's unhealthy not to respond, take for example, someone calling another an asshole, he can be the better man as maybe you seem to say, and not respond, or he can be the better man AND respond - because, to not to, could mean that s/he is allowing bullying to occur, also, they could respond for a million other reasons, maybe even because it's necessary to teach the guy a lesson - if he can't learn how to deal with people on the internet, maybe it will help him to prepare how to deal with people in the real world where it will matter more. Of course everything i've said could equally be applied in the real world also.
So maybe a healthy person should respond, maybe they shouldn't - I suppose it depends on the person, the circumstances, and some other thing as to whether responding is the healthy option.
My last post still stands also.
What games that? I didn't realise I was playing a game, i've merely stated some factual information on the guy, i've also stated that I think he's a looser and a coward - I think I supplied my reasons for stating that, if I didn't they're probably easy to work out.At least niffweed beats you all at his own game, while you all lose at yours.
Besides, don't you think this is spending too much on this arsehole? Keep in mind that I do think he's an arsehole, due to how he conducts himself, but not least because he's called me it more than a few times in situations where I can't respond and apparently no provocation - I might not necessarily start something, but what's wrong with finishing it if someone else starts looking to rain down a bunch of nonesense upon you - and I have to say others, of which I do think it's worth standing up for others also, which you may or may not agree with, but ..... I also showed some compassion too in my previous posts, hoping he'd "improve", so it's not all bad you see
I can't speak for anyone else, but I hope i've answered you're question/point(s)/post sufficiently, if not, I will try not to cry, but the tears, who knows when they will come
And what would be the point of that? He just posts private conversations in public anyway.
-------------------------------------
I thought i'd also add, that IRL, I would just pretty much avoid people like that, but it's not always possible on the internet, like a small community, so as I said earlier, I do see your point to an extent about not responding as he does, but then, I think i've been OK, rational enough, maybe the arsehole response (sort of like a fire with fire thing - I think it and i've gave plenty of reasons, however he's called me it with no apparent reasons, he's just, I dunno, miserable).
no. sweat it.
"If you can find out little melodies for yourself on the piano it is all very well. But if they come of themselves when you are not at the piano, then you have still greater reason to rejoice; for then the inner sense of music is astir in you. The fingers must make what the head wills, not vice versa."- Robert Schumann
