Jumping on your neck? I made no personal attacks, Aniki.

I never said your argument was "pointless". I said it was "moot" because you are advocating for pointless posts. For your argument to work one must agree that pointless posts are not pointless. I cannot agree to that.

It was a pattern of behavior I saw more than once. Enough times, I felt, to merit a thread.
All this arguing is me beating a dead horse while I put off doing more important things.

So tell me MMM, who really did fail?

The point of the thread was not to win or lose, it was to open discussion about a phenomenon I thought was worth addressing.
But if the logic that posting pointless posts on dead threads is not a good idea wasn't made clear enough, then I guess I failed.

I don't tell you a lot of the things I do, Aniki.
