Would you encourage your son/daughter to join Indian military?

I merely asked him to quote the source which allegedly claims that prostitutes essentially come from the so called "conservative backgrounds". His also implied that doctors, engineers and professors are to be deemed as "liberal" purely because of their vocation. I have a problem in subscribing to this theory.
You asked me the source and I told you I don't remember which channel I watched that documentary on. Do you remember each and every channel you watch a particular show on? I don't and neither was I trying to present it as some kind of scientific argument in a proper debate(I rarely get into those online). It was an off the cuff remark where hanging out in the evening one would say, "Haan yaar conservative backgrounds ki porn stars par ek documentary dekhi thi maine ek channel par kuch saal pehle"
coming to the issue of source. CC1981 and Shwetabh will appreciate the context of my query. In another thread, I did not quote a source and shwetabh accused me of being a cheat simply because he got some other data from a website (it turned out later that i was correct). I have not once called Shwetabh a cheat in this thread.....although i did agree to his own suggestion that he could have dreamt about it.
Please quote where I called you a cheat. 1. You made a claim, I found a counter claim with a source and said you were fabricating stuff 2. You said you were not fabricating it and sent me a couple of articles on whose basis you made the claim. 3. I acknowledged those articles and figures and said will get back to you when I get the time and inclination. 4. You accused me of calling you a liar in a completely unrelated cricket thread where I was not even participating. 5. I went through points 1-3 with you and apologized if I offended you. 6. You said yes you will move on. 7. You are back to the same ghisa pita scene.
All those defending Shwetabh's stand....I did not see any of you take a similar stand in my favour when he called me a cheat! I'd love to know why.
Maybe because I never called you a cheat?
Dhondy and Beetle....Both of you basically suggested that if Shwetabh claimed that there is a source then it must be true...notwithstanding the fact that as of now he has not been able to substantiate his claims. This is truly revealing. Nobody could blame the aussies for being convinced about harbhajan's guilt as Andrew Symonds and Ponting are both respectable figures in Australia. But did you two not cry a river over how unjust it was to punish harbhajan on the basis of symonds allegation?
This is not some disciplinary hearing where Dhondy and Beetle require some proof. It's more like a casual evening conversation where you say things which are true but you might not be able to substantiate in a court of law and that's where trust comes in and as I said most posters know me for a long enough time to realize I will not lie about such trivial stuff. Now live on to your promise, and move on.

I have not decided to take on another poster....try to comprehend the context. If your fail to do that then ask either me or shwetabh. I wont charge you. yes....you made comments about pakistan in an Ishant Sharma thread....Now we know who goes about posting meaningless drivel. My advice....think from your head, not your butt.
Eh ? I said I can quantify my points and you gave that thread a miss from then on. And Son, I atleast think, whether it be from my head or butt, looks like you cant even think to begin with. Evidently, you are yet to indulge in a SINGLE fact based debate with anyone here till now and you have 400 posts. Enough said. Try harder, you might just be able to lose your dumbness.

I visited the politics forums after a long time and now this is turned into abuse fest. Take a breather you folks don't complicate a simple life. I can't believe people that have seen enough life get riled up at comments made in forums. Do some of you guys realize you have wasted some precious moments of your life throwing abuses at each other?

Shwetabh, any person with average intelligence would know that "fabricating stuff and presenting it as fact" amounts to cheating. Its very basic and i am sure you are a man of above average intelligence to comprehend this. So all those folks who came running here and advising me not to insist on a source...they are the ones who neeed to loosen up.
Folks here apparently have more than average intelligence to differentiate between a scenario where one poster accuses another of fabricating stuff after presenting a source with a counter claim and one where a poster goes on personal attacks against all and sundry. PS : Quit abusing posters like fineleg when they have not directed any abuse towards you immediately.

the "monkey...teri maaki" defence sounds more convincing than this. Fineleg's unjustifiably took a moral high ground and went on to preach and deserves all that he/she got.
That you cannot comprehend the difference doesn't mean others can't and since when did taking a moral high ground become justification for being abused. That might be how you live your life but this site does not permit abuse for the crime of taking a moral high ground.

i said "unjustifiably" took the moral high ground.....now who lacks comprehension skills? go figure...
And are you some Justice Chaudhary to proclaim what is just and what is unjust? If we allow individual posters to abuse others according to their perceptions of just and unjust, this place would be a mess.

Shwetabh, you twisted my words in your last post. you chastised me for abusing fineleg for "taking a high moral ground". even though i said fineleg "unjustifiably took a high moral ground". hence, my objection.
I did not twist any words, merely said taking a moral high ground is no grounds to be abused, whether it's a justified moral high ground or not is irrelevant and that was my reason for omitting those words.
In any event, since we dont have an arbitral forum on a messageboard so I'll decide for myself what's just and what's not. its pretty simple.
You can decide on what's just and what's not but you cannot abuse other posters based on that decision. Is that in any way unclear?

To me' date=' its more obnoxious if someone takes an unjustified moral high ground than mouthing off petty abuses. Is that in anyway unclear?[/quote'] I repeat my question - are you some Justice Chaudhary to tell us what is justified and what is not? And if you are not, then stay clear of abuses regardless of whether you feel a moral high ground is justified or not. Have tried to reason with you here and have made my point amply clear - don't go about abusing posters based on your perceptions of justice. If you do that in the future, the moderators will have to step in and issue infractions.

Ignore my posts if you cannot understand what is being said. I'd rather have you abuse me...like you did when you called me a cheat....rather than take a ludicrous moral high ground and preach. Got it?
It doesn't matter what you'd rather have and what you rather not. If you are posting here you cannot be abusing other posters. Got it?

Just went through this thread http://www.indiancricketfans.com/showthread.php?t=88318 Its quite revealing about the forum policy on petty abuses. And since you are so much in favour of probity on MBs....then let's go all the way and ban all those users who abuse players. Why half hearted measures?
Nauseating prick is not a petty abuse and that is the reason I intervened in the first place. Here are the definitions from the OP of that thread and have highlighted why nauseating prick is not a petty abuse for your understanding,
Petty insults : Stuff like idiot, moron, bigot, psec etc. Abuse : MC,BC, sexual references, references to family etc.
Ban posters for abusing players? It's definitely not encouraged and neither is it ban worthy at the moment, but if you feel so strongly on the issue open a thread and let the posters decide whether it should be infraction/ban worthy or not.

LOL....now we have Justice shwetabh exponding the law on what is to be considered a petty abuse! Well done!
Not me. The posters decided on what should be permissible and what is not.
being a prick has no sexual connotation at all...dictionary.com says it means "an unpleasant person".
From dictionary.com,
7. Slang: Vulgar. a. penis.
You need to tighten up your reading skills as well along with comprehension skills.
If you are so much against mentioning of sexual references....then nobody should be using the word "fack"....or do you think that taking U with A makes it alright. and whats more....you are quite fond of using the word "fack" yourself!
Please point out where I have used the word fack directed at a poster.
You also didnt answer me....why did you not ask dhondy to not get abusive in the above-mentioned post?
Which mentioned post of Dhondy?
OMG i just realised....you look like a joker once again!
The joke's on you Justice Chaudhary, what was it again dictionary.com does not have any sexual connotations of the word prick?
