I was actually being petty to show what a petty asshole you are, without devoting too much time, as frigid et al have done.66daystogo said:... and before the other merciless pedants out there get too trigger happy the reply buttons: boy's in my original post above ought to have been boys' ...
Omg, I just read that hahah!frigid said:
a quote eh? in your half-lukewarm attempt to sound educated, you do realise that the context of that quote is not even closely related to the topic. what gertrude said in criticism about a character who portrays her, in my opinion, is not even closely related to santa. firstly, santa's male - have you got gender identity issues? secondly, he doesn't 'protest', but 'advocates'. third, he's not criticising himself. SNAP - distinguished.
Before you all get too hot under the collar at 66daystogo's comments I think I should offer a wee bit of evidence in defence ... Last semester, I too did Business Statistics and Forecasting with Nelson and Abbas. I too did nothing all semester. I too 'failed' (39%), yet on my transcript it states that I attained a "Pass" in the subject. I am happy with that, but I do feel it has diluted the quality of my degree a bit - not that I'm complainingsantaslayer said:1) You must be old
2)We do a combo of seminars (2hrs) and lectures. There is nothing wrong with lectures if they encourage particapation. (We aren't massive in law students).
3) PASS is Peer Assisted Support Scheme. It is not a result. It is used for people who are having difficulty with harder subjects. They probably told your cousin tio attend PASS before he could pass. LoLz.
4) Dr Nelson. P. He is in fact my Quantitative methods (COMM121) lecture and tutor, since I haven't completed my Commerce Core. I would be very happy to ask him in person if that actually happened. Give me your cousin's details. PM me if you like. I will also give him your email address and we may verify it.
5) I'm not defending it. It was never under attack by anyone. You seem to have interpretation problems.
6) Lecturers don't hand out passes willy nilly. They worked hard for their degree, I don't think any sane lecturer would do that in order to destroy their own reputation.
EDIT: Subject Outline:
PERFORMANCE LEVEL
To be eligible to pass this subject, students must achieve an overall mark of at least 45%, and at
least 40% on the final examination.
Have in mind that this is a first year subject, anything in the 45-49% will prohibit you from doing the follow up subject. That mark is only for people who don't want anything to do with Finance/Eco in future.
Moonlight, could you run an IP check on this guy?

(I also think 66daystogo said "PASS" in capitals to highlight the point, not to refer to the program.)
Also, santa, what right do YOU have to demand PERSONAL details from anyone on this forum???? You ARE NOT a representative of UoW's academic standards monitoring agency (are you?)? Look, you obviously have a problem with 66days - just 'build a bridge' my friend, build a bridge.
And before you ask, NO, I am not going to provide you with my student details so you can go and 'confirm' this. I think we should all just admit that there has been a lot of bad blood on this forum and it's time to stop, rule a line and get on with our lives.
66daystogo: please don't reply to santa. Forget it. It will only end in tears :'(
Oh, and the Queen Gertrude thing - accepted idiomatic usage of the quotation as described by Dr Hailsloame's English Idioms would appear to approve the context in which 66days has used it. But let's not get into that debate

1) The subject you are referring to is incorrect.

He takes his aggression out on people because some people have hammered him in an online forum? WoW. Interesting character.BobPrior said:I'm not.
But I know who he is. And I am sick of him taking out his aggression from these stupid forums out on his friends
I know, I knowsantaslayer said:He takes his aggression out on people because some people have hammered him in an online forum? WoW. Interesting character.
I thought you had 4 posts before? Mods have deleted some of your posts already?BobPrior said:I know, I know
I have just rung 66 and I have convinced them (yes, them) never again to visit this site or contribute to these forums. They can be petty, as their recent posts have shown to the whole online community. Their comments are not in the spirit of this forum, and so now you will all be spared their messages.
I am a professional shit stirrer, from melbourne, as it happens - hence my original interest in this forum. And, as you have so rightly shown, i can be a worthless piece of shit in many respects. My gf and I have been using the computer and forum usernames of a good friend of ours ... i know wanton-wanton knows him.santaslayer said:I thought you had 4 posts before?

If THEY do not visit these forums again then I will email the forum link to my lecturer Dr Nelson P and see where it goes from there. Of course, I will allow 'them' reasonably sufficent time to come up with something before I go off sending the email.
Mr Bob, wanton_wanton just sent me a PM assuring me of 66's credibility. I don't see why he needs to cease all posting activities. Tonight has been quite eventful. This is what happened in chronological order:
1) I respond to 66's post.
2) You, Mr Bobprior pop up from nowhere with a whopping 5 posts.
3) I respond to your post
4) wanton_wanton sends me a PM assuring me of 66's credibility. "he is more credible than you may think..."
5) You respond by referring 66 as 'them'.
I am trying very hard not to sound confused. I think all three IP addresses should be checked up on.
1) No you're not. You haven't stirred anything up yet.66daystogo said:I am a professional shit stirrer, from melbourne, as it happens - hence my original interest in this forum.

Yeah, sorry.wanton-wonton said:Maybe he/she deleted it themselves?
I unreservedly apologise for the offence I have caused here. I have been stupid, petty and naive. I have wronged santaslayer and have said incorrect, hurtful things.santaslayer said:That sounds like a vauge apology, using a another account. Of course, I will not go to the extent of believing it is an apology, since nothing like that has been said yet.
I thought you implied that this whole thing was set up. It was actually very spontaneous. All a coincidence, I guess.santaslayer said:I never said you were any of them two, why be so defensive for?
kekekkekeekkeehh...wanton-wonton said:I thought you implied that this whole thing was set up. It was actually very spontaneous. All a coincidence, I guess.
I'm just a bystander, don't get me involved.
