Same here. Hope you had a chuckle from your self-indulgent proclaimed 'social commentary', it was a useless and boring waste of time. You knew in the posting that 'bleep' is an omission for inappropriate words while self-editing and utilized that knowledge to attempt to deceive readers...then when they realized that you weren't swearing, punchline. Write a book, maybe someone will buy it, but I wouldn't. Actually, I would have been mildly interested in the post if it were a critique on ATS rather than a moderator ego-patting. Is this thread really "Above Top Secret"? I know I haven't heard any breaking alternative news here especially in the field of "Psychology, Philosophy and Metaphysics", rather old literary re-hash from The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy (Prostetnic Vogon Jeltz).

Thank you for taking the time to reply to this useless waste of time post, I am sure that as a self proclaimed saint 4 God you must have delayed much more pressing issues.

I find your perception of this post to be very telling.

The purpose of this thread was very simple, to share tasty food for thought with the readers.

It seems clear to me that the majority of those that have replied to this thread have taken it the way it was intended to be taken, positively.

I am sorry that your perception of both this thread and myself are so negative, you seem to have gained a great deal of insight about me from reading the OP.

I hope your day gets better.

Sincerely,

Deepred

Yes, Obama has wooed the press and us Americans, making promises that he can't seem to deliver (surpise surprise?) but just like the end of the non-original poster's thread, people will soon come to realize they've 'been had' if they were fooled before. Those of who've watched politics and read satire would fall for neither.

You're welcome, always willing to offer some constructive criticism and am hoping it is taken as such. I have my opinions just as you have yours. Being that there are no facts in this topic, I'm not hesitant in expressing them.

Thank you for your opinions.

I seem to be missing the "constructive" aspect of your criticisim.

As previously mentioned, this is an old literary technique, aka it has been done many many times before. Instead of using ATS as a personal joke forum, perhaps using it as intended would be a good place to start. Above Top Secret (as the name implies) is a very good source for progressive discussion on topics such as news, paranormal exploration, or scientific discovery.

Alternatively, perhaps there is a forum more geared towards standup such as: Fun On the Net . A funeral parlor is not the place to burst through the door in a clown suit. There's an appropriate time and place for everything, hope this was more constructive.

I did not realise that ATS was a funeral parlor!

Your perception of the OP being a joke is just that, your perception. It was not intended to be a joke, nor do I see it as a joke.

I am of the opinion that you have missed the point entirely.

If this thread does not have the amount of gloom you requier or that funeral parlor feel you seem to desire, I am sure there are many other threads that will provide just what you are looking for.

When making a metaphor, therein lies the risk of it being taken literally and therefore misunderstood. I'll attempt to clarify. I just got done reading about the people dying in the Gaza-Israeli conflict. Dead. Funeral. Palor. Then on the same front page is this whimsical muse of a 'topic' - joke, gotcha, funny haha, clownsuit.

That's a very judgemental thing to say.

My criticism is the topic and hope it's not taken personally in any way. I've been told I was wrong many times in the past to which I can say, "Yes, sorry about that", learned and moved on in my life. It's quite knee-jerk to assume I desire a 'funeral palor atmosphere', which is of course as could be imagined, untrue. My concern isn't so much for the thread itself as it is for the moderators who seem to have wavering principles as to what qualifies as a 'valid thread' and they're welcomed to U2U me with details as to what I mean.

Your intent was to deceive, which is against ATS's posting policy as I understand it.



1). Posting: You will not post any material that is knowingly false, misleading, or inaccurate.
Terms and Conditions

Just like if someone titled "Picture of an Alien!" and when you click it there's a sock puppet alien. Ah! But the title didn't say it was a real alien? Perhaps there's something wrong with one's perception? Again, surprised the mods are allowing this to continue.

You were deceived by your own perception.

While I enjoy a good debate this is becoming tiresome. You seem to be working very hard to take away something that many ATS members are enjoying.

All I can say is take it up with the MODS.

It is no skin off my nose if no one else reads the OP but, I am questioning your motives for denying others the chance to read this thread.

"Enjoying"? So it was for entertainment value? I noticed you didn't say 'learning' here and rightfully so.

They're watching and offered for them to contact me...so in effect, I am.

I feel it's only fair to be honest with you, though questionable as it may be that you are with me. Since no one else is willing to represent this perspective, I will because I actually care. Had your rant truly included the implied obscenities of the unoriginal 'original' post, that would've been my response - that ATS'ers do actually care about truth and will deny both ignorance and deception. But, maybe that's not real either and is only your perception.

Don't jump to conclusions, did you even bother to read the OP? It's not what it appears to be (like many things on ATS)


Hey there!!

I must offer apologies for my first post on this topic.

I did in that way to see if the mods would bleeping - bleep me and true to your post they sure did.


Actually the "[sniped] me. A few fiery words directed at your OP.

Well that test balloon has flown and we have the results now don't we??

Apologies again for my subterfuge.

A new person wouldn't know if it was a mod who [snipped] or the poster BLEEPing their own words, therein lies part of the deception.

Mighty responsible of you and have a lot of respect for people who can admit fault. Now, if only the first poster would do the same for theirs.

Go away saint - you truly are boring...

you'r joking,right?
as far as i can see,the only thing deepred has done here is a rather interesting experiment
there's no need to open up with the ATS member policy's here,is there?

it's a simple experiment on perception

anyone with any common sense and eyes in his or her head can read these boards properly,and questions are never too much on this site either when asked in a polite fashion

not meaning to choose sides or anything,i just don't see why this thread would be against site policy

cheers
