Please stop pretending you are just accidentally browsing random search engines and not stalking down my every thread. I would never invite you to spam your sig whilst pretending to make worthwhile comment.

You really go searching for your own username in search engines with the exact same mispelling as mine.... sounds like a usual excuses I hear in meta.
This was clearly sarcasm.


Are you seriously telling me he was aiming quoting something you didnt go near mentioning? ... get real. Nobody could accept that explanation because you never said anything like that.
The use of the quotation marks was clearly "scare quotes", and not as a direct quote of something anybody said.


This is diabolical and worse that 300lbs of DT abuse
This was clearly a joke.


So people can get red trust for saying lemon without it being an abuse of the trust system?
This was clearly a metaphor.


I think part of the problem here is that cryptohunter, being (I presume) a non-native English speaker, is literally taking everything, well, literally. When you re-read everything with this mindset, it is easier to see how this misunderstanding arose and escalated. Perhaps with this in mind, we can all come to an agreeable solution. Having said that cryptohunter, you are not helping yourself by continuing to rage at people who are trying to help you (e.g. suchmoon and The Pharmacist).



I want him to run me through his entire though process during that exchange starting with me saying marlboroza is misquoting me.

1 - marlboroza made a post here containing two direct quotes from you, as well as a couple of "scare quotes".

2 - You then stated he was:
pretending to quote me when I never said that at all.

3 - Everyone assumed you were talking about the actual quotes, and so suchmoon made a video showing that you click on the quotes and it will bring you directly to the posts where you said the quoted text.

4 - A couple of posts later, you elaborated that it was the "scare quotes" you were objecting to, which no one ever claimed were said by you (or anybody else for that matter).

5 - The confusion was cleared up.
