You know, the more you talk, the less you seem to be saying. With every reply you just throw in a few more names to call me and in this one you actually attempt to rewrite history. Do you believ yu have special powers? The ability to bend reality to your will, perhaps? Let's start with #1:

1. I did not say to only base his structure on IE format. I DID however, say that he should use both mpeg AND wmv format if possible.... and in fact more if he can accomodate it. But you glossed over that immediately way back up at the top of the thread (which is why this convo is happening in the first place), because you're so BENT on proving your fucking point... (which is stupid I might add)
Hmm... I glossed over that, eh? Well, a quick jaunt up to the top of this thread shows that I actually made my post BEFORE you made your post about using both. Now, unless I somehow stepped backwards in time and inserted my reply into the thread above yours, I couldn't possibly have "glossed over" it, because you hasn't even said it, yet!

I am especially tickled by your claim that this conversation is taking place because of this nonexistent "glossing" I did. This conversation is taking place because after I made a single post (in which I did not mention you, anything about your or make any reference to an idea put forth by you) you took the time to attack me. Everything in this conversation has been a direct result of your third-grade name-calling tactics. I have just been presenting my defense and exposing the silliness of your argument.


On to #2:

2. As far as your "Not wanting to possibly exclude a potential customer by not providing an alternative format" speech goes:
again.. I DID say, provide multiple formats IF POSSIBLE.... if NOT possible.. choose wmv because the majority of your surfers will accept that format without hassle. ANd as far as "Excluding a possible customer" goes...? Please... LOOK at the fucking stats you idiot. Your "possible" customer is a 5% issue... most of which will be from fucking Russia or China or AOL or freaks like you that won't buy a fucking thing anyway. Now I'm supposed to create 4 more separate versions of every fucking site just to accomodate some freeloading fuckstick that is bent on using Opera because they're "Representin' with the down crowd against the evil MS empire"? Fuck off. I'd rather spend the day stroking my cock.
You're right, you did say to use both formats if possible. You said that with a total of ten words and then proceeded to use several semi-complete sentences to flame me for some nonsensical perceived insult to your integrity as a video producer. A 5% issue? I will admit I haven't checked my web logs for useragents in the last month or two, but the last I saw wast closer to 80% IE, not 95%. I like the way you try to categorize non-IE users as freeloaders. I guess there is some mystical quality to Internet Explorer users that makes them better people. I guess you're just an anomaly.

Now, my favorite part:

HENCE: THIS is where you decided to fire up your fucking motor scooter and go on and on about browser technology and god knows what other completely irrelevant shit that means absolutely NOTHING to me..... but if you had only OPENED YOUR FUCKING EYES IN THE FIRST PLACE...... all of this could have been avoided...
Actually, I never fired up any motor scooter. Everything I have said so far has been in reply to you. I haven't advocated any single browser or tried to persuade anyone to NOT use any single browser. I haven't even said what browser I use. As for opening my eyes, I refer you once again to the top of this thread where my post is BEFORE yours which means that even if you had laid out some well-reasoned argument (which you didn't) I couldn't possibly have read it before making that post.

All this could have been avoided if you weren't so keen to flame people. Take responsibility.

and no. My post count has nothing to do with anything... please don't tell me you're gonna be "one of those people"... because that will only make this that much more fun.

You seem conflicted. It would be more fun but you're begging me not to do it? I guess I will have to decide for myself. Fine, your post count doesn't enter into it. That doesn't change the fact that your entire last post was almost 100% pure fantasy. You flamed me for nothing and started this shit, not the other way around.
