I'm done now. I'm not going to try and explain myself any further because you are still stuck on my first post and not really listening to anything that I am trying to say.
So now your English is that nuanced? Follow up: if you didn't understand what I meant, why did say I didn't know what I was talking about?

Yeah, I get it. It's just really pathetic though man, why care so much?
I don't think he cares that much, probably just likes arguing and stuff to pass the time. I mean, that's actually a totally legit reason to get into an argument over the internet. God only knows how many hours I've sunk into that kinda shit. Debate is fun, especially when you get self-satisfaction from winning. Don't take somebody writing pages of tl;dr text on the internet as a sign of them actually having emotional investment in the shit they write.
Correct on the emotional investment. I have no idea why this is assumed on the internet and always has been. Do people go around reading posts and imparting some sort of anger on them? I can tell you that in most cases, you can read my posts as "clearly unimpressed". However, I do care about audio recording, especially in DIY/hardcore/whatever because that's the most direct documentation we have of the reason we're all here. Why would you
not care about that?

I'll stow it now, in-case i find myself on the receiving end of something.
I hate to nitpick your semantics, but this wasn't about nitpicking anyone's semantics. Regardless, he's using that excuse that he isn't a native speaker as an out so he doesn't have to admit he is wrong to a complete stranger on the internet, which as we all know, is the most unforgivable thing you can do in life. Don't worry, no one's going to be on the receiving end of anything.
