I could care less what he's talking about, but one thing I did notice
is that while most people tend to start their answers with capital
letters (even when they're not full sentences, things like this are
treated like a sentence in terms of capitalization), you've done your
answer starting with lower case.

Now frankly, I could care less.  But what I do care about is that you
would do that, and then in the same sentence get nitpicky about not
capitalizing genres.  Now, in case you don't know how to extrapolate,
that means, you're being hypocritical.  As usual.

(I see a prediction of the answer coming, followed with a <duh> of
course.  Sorry, too late.  Answer unacceptable.)

And some people, BTW, do tend to use genre names as though they are
proper nouns, which is an OK thing.  (If we can capitalize wine types,
even when they're not a region of a country, then we can certainly
capitalize genres, huh?)  But I really don't think it's something for
you to get so upset about.  You go off on a tangent and scream and
holler when you think people are getting on your case too much over
what you consider to be stupid stuff.  And yet you're nickpicking
about something this stupid.  Again, hypocritical.  As you've said
many times, GET OVER IT!!

I've also noticed that you're lying again.  You just started a new
thread with your answer to Luke, even though the subject didn't
change.  You were talking about the exact same subject but you felt it
necessary to change threads.  Yet you claim you only do that when the
subject has changed.  Makes it quite difficult to find your answers --
not that I care if I find them, mind you, but if your intention was
for someone to actually read your answer (and I'm sure it was), then
you could leave it in the same thread when it's the same exact
subject.

And while we're at it, was there a reason it was necessary to add two
crossposts to this?  OK, we were talking about action elements in
adventure games, and then a little bit on action games themselves, and
Thief got *vaguely* mentioned, but do you really think these other
people are interesting in jumping into the middle of a thread that's
been going on for days and that they haven't been reading?   Or was it
really so you could spread your trolling around a bit more?

And you wonder why people call you a troll.  Well, I'm telling you.
But of course, you won't understand, as usual.  I take that back.  I
think you full well understand.  You just won't admit it.

So, go ahead, go off on one of your rants and tell me to get over it.

he wouldn't trust me so much.
