Sadly myself and many from the Ishukone-Raata Board were unable to attend this important occasion. I still wish to thank all of those involved. A celebration of life seemed fitting after all these years, as we continue to mourn all those lost during this regretful affair, but it shows that we as a corporation and a community continue to move forward in an effort to heal the wounds of the past. ---

You know, I get yelled at for being argumentative and ‘trying to win’, and told ‘what about _discussion_?!?’ Then, I ask a question. That question spurs, you know… _discussion_. Nobody’s saying ‘ZOMG, Makoto, how DARE you???’ I even think… lemme look… yep! Even complimented the speech. I think it’s a good speech. But what’s with all the passive-aggressive hate on the tangential discussion an element of your speech inspired? Isn’t sparking discussion and exchange of ideas a _good_ thing? ---

Generally, yes. But you and pedantry are like a fish and water. An extensive discussion of the varying competing philosophies involving labor, employment, and such things will ultimately boil down to value judgments. Moralizing on points of cultural variation seems a poor way to spend our time, especially when we could debate it for days, weeks, months on end with no change on either of our part because it boils down to cultural norms that differ between here and there. Essentially, imagine, if you will, that a True Amarr started to quibble over minor matters of kith and tribe, and intended to argue until the third coming of Jamyl. That’s where we are. Sooo. ---

It’s more laid back than normal, though. I mean, I’m not getting aggressive, I’m not saying certain things that, if I were to explain what they are, I’d be saying them, so I won’t… but… You know, it’s a work in progress. ---

Really wasn’t a “debate”, though… just expanding on some earlier thoughts to make my reasons a little clearer. Seemed like the thing to do when we were exchanging our views on the role unions play and how it analogizes to a biological system. But hey, whatever. Also, just as a request for clarification here: Moralizing? ---

> [@Arrendis](#): > > Isn’t sparking discussion and exchange of ideas a good thing? When one can stay within context of the environment i.e trying to understand what the author is trying to convey and in fact realise that rhetoric is a holistic endeavor i.e trying to understand what the author is trying to convey in an invention called a unified piece of text which holds a particular angle and stream of thought which then may lead to argumentation on that **_whole_** piece of text …then yes its a good thing. Rather than the tottally opposite of it being nip and tucking i.e what someone could easily be doing in every.post.in.the.IGS which is the most horrible way to portray one doesnt view discussion in a holistic manner but a race against impressions… Then its a waste of time for the most part and not a _good_ thing. P.S Yes I nipped and tucked your argument because sarcasm is a thing of mine. ---

Well, yes, but that’s why I asked her what she’d meant, to begin with. When she explained, I offered an observation—a contrasting view for consideration, rather than any kind of challenge or direct refutation or accusation of error. After all, she was expressing an opinion, not claiming ‘this is the proven fact’. As such, it’d be impossible to say ‘you can’t feel like that’, and frankly, it’d be pretty silly to try, you know? Then Miz offered her opinion, and Ara offered some thoughts on that and Makoto’s, and so I clarified my position in relation to Aradina’s expansion on Makoto’s point. You know, discussing the way we think about the matter I’d asked for clarification on, initially. So, as a further request for clarification: Is it your position that in order to discuss someone’s public statements, you have to discuss _only_ the primary point of those statements, or is it allowed to say ‘those are all good points, and I support your message. I just have a question about this part here?’ and then discuss the answer to that question? Because… that’s what happened. ---

The title of the thread reads _10th year anniversary of Malkalen Incident_ for which by now all this nip and tucking has turned it from a forum discussion of a particular topic the respectable authors wanted to express as is their right to do so, to a luncheon discussion that led all the way to discussing Unions within the cultural context of the State(_maybe, nobody knows actually because that wasnt the point anyway of the thread but oh well…_) and then what is rhetoric… Do I need to offer something more per clarification goes? ---

Yes, it’s an announcement thread for an event whereupon Makoto made a speech. And now we’re discussing a matter that developed from a clarification of a question about the speech she made at the event. The event the respectable authors wanted to express was _going_ to happen. Which it now _has_. And so there’s no need to let people know it _will_ happen, because the 10th anniversary event of the Malkalen Incident _will never happen again_. Is there only a limited number of letters available to put in the thread? Are we preventing other people from discussing the event that has already happened, with our discussion of an aspect of a speech given at the event the thread’s author intended the thread to raise awareness of _in advance_? ---

Let’s say I would agree but I dont. But for entertainment purposes, allow me to offer my opinion on this; your point to Miss Priano’s speech was effectively this: > [@Makoto\_Priano](#): > > Thank you for your extensive review of two words out of the speech. So within the context of what this forum post had turned to be you effectively took a tiny point from the whole speech and turned the argumentation curve towards evaluating a particular segment which is meant to be a part of a unified stream of thought. This means effectively you broke a sequence and that means that a broken array of sequence hardly will make sense standing on its own. This is the faulty mechanisms of what we call Language, but lets not get into that, also this is the problem of a feed based UI as this forum has but lets not get into this as well and let me offer my opinion; So, for me, you should have made some thorough research on your own about the context of Unions in the State, make your own argumentative notes and then go open another thread, name it whatever you fancied and then offer your argument against the topic area you wanted to isolate and then argue against Miss Priano’s point of view within the same isolated post, on the isolated point. In the meantime you could have read the whole speech and offer a response within the context of that in this post. Thus, and here is where this comes to effect: > [@Arrendis](#): > > Isn’t sparking discussion and exchange of ideas a good thing? Where now we would have two pieces of posts where one is a sequence of the other and we would all enjoy cohesively, the _good_ thing. ---

I simply offered my own thoughts as part of a broader discussion, a kind of ‘oh, ok, I looked at it more like _this_, but I can see what you’re saying, too’. And I _did_ read the entire speech. And I offered a response _based_ on the entire speech. Here, let me quote it for you: > [@Arrendis](#): > > All in all, a very good speech, and admirable sentiments.

In a very convenient manner as well not because its the truth but because you claim it to be… You know your argumentation style Miss Arrendis is what is called _cluster criticism_, its not that hard for someone to see of it as it is and I can assure you cluster criticism has broadly speaking, three stages, upon which you barely make it to the second… In the meantime I received this from the CONCORD UI ======================================== Consider replying to more people You’ve already replied 3 times to @Arrendis in this particular topic.

> [@Ioannis\_Sepphiros](#): > > stating an opinion after derailing the topic which was the speech( at the time) Well then wasn’t the transcript of the _speech_ derailing the topic which was the event (at the time), since Makoto didn’t include a full transcript of everything that happened? I’m really not trying to be combative here, but it seems like you’re dead set on it. There’s a preconceived notion that discussing one part of the larger thing is somehow suddenly not ok, even though that’s _exactly_ what was being done in the post my original question was a response to. Can you please explain to me how Makoto only detailing a part of the event is significantly different, and what discussion of the speech the literal _first reply after the transcript_ derailed? How have I prevented others from discussing the speech? Is it impossible for them to talk about it? I’ve offered my thoughts on the speech itself, what are yours? Did you like it? Do you think it was a good speech? Do you agree with the overall sentiment in the speech? And when you quote my original question there, and try to portray that as the part where I say I was offering my opinion, are you intending to be dishonest, or did you miss both of my later posts, where the opinion is expressly offered? Since you say you agree with CONCORD, are you going to take Aradina or Mizhara to task for offering their opinions on Makoto’s response now, as well? Or are you simply singling me out because Makoto chose to do so? ---

Ya know, maybe I’m not entirely up to speed on ettiquette, but this seems like the wrong place to have such a discussion and is wholly disrespectful to those who honor this day. A little cultural courtesy goes a long way. If you have questions for Miss Priano, take it elsewhere. Don’t sully this thread with another pedantic debate. ---
