^^Why won't you?

Because he contributes to the invelos community as a whole, you don't.  I believe that is the point several people were making earlier.

Well, let's take a look at the history of bob9000's posts in this thread.  Here's what I found through 28 of the 32 pages of this thread.  This is every post of his except one out of the 28 pages I went through:

"Well yes, he visited there once while playing Risk with his Great Aunt Mabel...so he is an expert. "

"Does that mean your pompous self is gonna give us a break from your constant "updates" in one-sidedness? Thank the good lord if it be true."

"If he does they should fire him for annoying the crap out of potential customers. I mean NO ONE likes this twit. I hope he doesn't work retail, WORST SALESPERSON EVER!"

"Lie or tell your version of the truth, I don't care. YOU ARE ANNOYING!"

"A N N O Y I N G!

Get It? That is why you suck, because you keep droning on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on."

"It never ends. Just give us a break. You are not convincing anyone of anything. You are driving people away on the sole basis of your personality. Blu Ray, HD DVD...who cares? Just stop driving us insane with you constant rhetoric.

Please, for the love of God, just stop.

Please."

"Dude, YOU SHOULD NOT BE IN THIS FORUM. At least not until you stop swinging those smug, self-obsessed, self-righteous opinions around, bludgeoning the other members with tedious, mind-numbing, repetitive and oh-so-slanted 'facts' that prove nothing. No one has ever evinced the least little interest in anything you have to say, whay don't you get that?"

"And for the record, the point that VibroCount was trying to make (if I am not mistaken) was that until HD DVD OR Blu Ray garnish a FAR FAR greater chunk of that Home Video Pie, then they are both equally irrelevant and an argument cannot possibly be made for the race being over...or even a the first lap being over for that matter. The potential finish line for this race is the whole pie, and so far between them they have what? 1%, 2%? NO ONE IS WINNING AND NO ONE IS GONNA WIN FOR YEARS. Do you seriously intend to be camping here irritating each and every member of this forum until the rece is done? 5 years from now when that pie is split 60/40 for one or the other, are you still going to be here touting Blu Ray like a pusher who is behind on his payments to his supplier? "

"Seriously man, take a break. And give us one. Sheeeesh."

"And while you are sitting back giving us a break from your rants and diatribes, why donlt you contribute to this forum and program in a MEANINGFUL way. I don't think I have EVER seen a single DVD contribution from you....I don't think think I have even seen you vote. Go do that for awhile instead of bugging the crap out of everyone who reads the 'tedium in a can' you call being informative. "

"Go away ascended, there is not a single person who wants you here. Not the way you are behaving. Why can't you get that? "

"Oh shut the *#$@$ up you pompous ass with your condescending drivel.


"It takes a lot of nerve for someone who has never voted on a contribution and added a truly pathetic 8 profiles to the database to keep shooting his mouth off the way Ascended does. It makes you wonder why the boor is ever here...it is certainly not to participate and contribute to the community."

"Go away Ascended, you are clearly here for your own edification only."

"Ascended's new tactic: spamming the board."

"Just go away ascended, with 0 votes cast and a pathetic 9 contributions you add nothing of worth to the community or this forum. You are a bad person. "

"HELLO MR. POT! You are such a lame fan-boy, and you contribute NOTHING to this community."

"Yes! "

"Why won't you go away?"

26+ pages of this stuff.  Maybe he's contributing elsewhere on this forum, but not in this thread for sure.

And, let's not even talk about the Blah, Blah guy.

Least you got the 500th post Unicus

Did I say anything about this thread?  No, I said he contributes to the invelos community as a whole.  Can you say the same thing?  It sure seems like your sole purpose for being here is to preach your dogma in order to convert the savages. 

I can say without a doubt that I do contribute, but of course you and others won't allow yourselves to see that.  Therefore, it doesn't really matter now does it?

Blah, blah, blah, blah...

You are still making assumptions based on your biased, narrow view I see. 

Where do you contribute?  I have yet to see you outside this sub-forum so it isn't in any of those areas.  You claim to have 186 Blu-ray titles.  How many have you contributed?  Your profile only shows 9 accepted contributions, so not even 10%.  Please, tell me what I am not allowing myself to see? 

That being said, nobody has to contribute to the community.  But, please, don't claim that you are when, on the surface, you look like an Ori Prior preaching Origin.

What you don't see is that 9 ACCEPTED contributions are still just that...CONTRIBUTIONS.  It seems like you still aren't allowing yourself to see. 

It's a pity how belief based on almost no facts can corrupt an otherwise decent person.  That kind of reminds me of Vala Mal Doran's husband, Tomin.  She kept trying to let him know the TRUTH about the Ori but he wouldn't listen.  It ended up taking the death of millions for him to finally see that he was wrong all along.  Don't let this be your story.

Can we dub some of Ascended_Saiyan's more "Matrix"-esque pearls of wisdom with Larry Fishburne's voice?

I said you had 9 accepted contributions, so I must have seen them.  You are just being idiotic at this point. 

Since this was all in response to my post about bob contributing to the community as a whole, and you trying to discredit that statement, let us compare...

Accepted Profile Contributions:
bob9000 - 785
Ascended_Saiyan - 9

Accepted Image Contributions:
bob9000 - 502
Ascended_Saiyan - 0

Contribution Votes Cast:
bob9000 - 1197
Ascended_Saiyan - 0

Based on those 'facts', who is contributing more to the community as a whole?  As I said, you don't have to contribute but let's not play 'make believe'.

Yes, that is a good comparison because the HD format choice I make is going to result in the death of millions. 

Since you obviously missed my analogy I will spell it out for you.  People should be allowed to make their own decision based on the factors that they want to apply.  You want them to pick Blu-ray based on factors you want to apply.  You fail to acknowledge that what is important to you may not be important to everyone.  You want to force feed everyone your opinion whether they want to hear it or not...hence the Prior reference.
