First off... Wow. You seem very intent on making a grand statement about me. Umm... ok, sorry you find me so obnoxious. I would say the same about you until you recently changed your posting habits. You have honestly fit the description of that word more than anyone I have ever dealt with on a forum.... but then you stopped completely. Are you mad that I called you out on the way you posted...? I am assuming that is where your frustration must be coming from... because its rather immense if its just stemming from some apple talk. I am sorry if I made you angry. Or if you think I am arrogant because of it. I am also sorry that you interpret my biased comments as me being arrogant.
I will agree with you about one thing though... when it comes to the mac talk... I have a tendency to be extra biased... and if you read back though this thread.. I think you will see that I clearly stated that. But right now, I think you are now jumping on me in a very over the top and extremely offensive way. You would think I screwed your girlfriend or something... You really should relax sir.
Sorry that you find me so offensive and apparently ignorant too.
Well... to be clear... I never stated that I was smarter than all apple people, nor was I smarter because I own an android. I said that I think that apple has more noobs.. based on my opinion and experience... you can say that is false... sure, it probably is.
And to be clear again, I referenced the fact that I was studying towards an MBA purely to justify that I had some marketing background for my reasoning... but I guess that could be interpreted as arrogant... so sorry about that one.
Like I said... my apple remarks are usually biased.. and I make fun of them a lot. But many people on this forum and others can see through that and are well aware that I am just picking fun and know that I actually respect their products and software. I think the OP is aware of that as well. So whatever arrogant or obnoxious comments you think that I have made... I guess I am sorry... but I don't understand why you have decided to turn this into a personal battle.. or to decide that now is the time you want to tell me I am obnoxious...?
Either way... cool stuff on the biology. I am working towards a degree in Biomedical Materials Engineering. I really find biology quite interesting, I am sure you learned a lot masters level. What are you doing with a bio masters spending time yelling at me on a droid forum? lol?
Edit: I realized you said you had a bachelors in biology & a master in infosec. Whats infosec?

Let's get something out of the way before I respond to this rambling. I
haven't changed the way I posted at all. If someone says something stupid (like you did multiple times in this thread), I'm going to tell you about it. I've gotten banned like 3 times from this forum, and it was because of the way I posted, and I'm sure every moderator who banned me has no problem telling me that, and I have no problem accepting that. Please don't get the misconception that I've suddenly become some "nice guy". I just respond in kind to how people talk to me. There's been instances where I've handled it wrong, and I've gotten banned for it, and that's that. If you think I suddenly changed the way I post, it's because it became pretty evident to me that the only criticism you would take for your "plan" would be positive criticism and not anything I had to say. Like I said in that thread, your plan is good, but it's not going to work. You couldn't handle that, and so my posts detailing why its not going to work, were immediately labeled as obnoxious in your head. I consider them realistic, but hey everyone has their opinions. You're not a child, you should be able to handle some criticism (or a reality check). Now to address your silly remarks:
"Are you mad that I called you out on the way you posted?" -- Wug, i'm not the little high schooler, or the college kid that you know, that would read something like that and be like "Oh no, he thinks I'm actually mad about this...better act cool and act like I don't let some crap on an online forum affect me!". The truth is yeah...if you're going to imply that I have a problem talking to you directly about how I feel, then I'm going to tell you how I feel. For one, there's no reason for me not to talk to you directly if I have an issue, and two...you're not some scary dude, who I'm afraid of addressing directly. If I wanted to address you directly, I would, and did, and will continue to.
Save the lame (your word, not mine) "apologies". Again, when I said you're immature, I meant it, and you're proving it with the sarcastic "I'm sorry"'s. I don't need your half-hearted apologies, and I'm sure no other user who you offended with your obnoxious "Apple users are noobs" garbage need it either.
No one's jumping on you in an over the top fashion. You were called out for a biased, frankly idiotic, post about a whole group of users. If you're going to make silly and arrogant statements, someone's gonna respond to it. Oh wait, lemme try something..."You mad about being called out??" (See it sounds stupid when I say it too...)
And yes, what you're saying is false. Like I said before, get over yourself. The 20 people you know who have android phones (please don't jump on me about the number 20...it's just a number used to illustrate an example) don't indicate the majority. If you honestly think that android users are inherently smarter then ios, or rim or any other users, it just makes me realize i've been debating with a fanboy all this time. If it's all a "joke" as you say (how convenient that now it's all a joke), then that's fine. Try to make it a little more obvious next time, though.
And yes, you derailed the thread with your ramblings. Don't go into a thread, insult everyone who talks about Apple, and then when you get called out by mods and other posters say "oh come on guys it was just a joke! You mad, huh??"
That's lame as all hell, seriously.
As for infosec, you're a smart guy, do a quick google search.
And what are you doing pursuing an MBA, calling Apple users noobs on a droid forum?? lol?
you can respond if you want, and i'll probably respond back and we'll derail the thread further. there's honestly no need to though, you already "apologized" for your dumb remarks, so we can end it there if you want. if you want to keep talking you can take it to PM, like you recommended I do in another thread. But yeah, I have no qualms about calling you obnoxious or arrogant or immature, because you have been, at least in this thread.
haha Fridays are awesome.
