On 5 Aug 2014 10:14:52 GMT, Sandman <mr@sandman.net>got back to his old tricks by chopping and changing what I wrote so he can interpret it to his own advantage. I've restored it all so I can't be accused of bias. Text in square brackets is recovered text. I've also realised that Sandman uses double quote marks (>>) which can mislead you as to has said what in the past.

Sandman
You have totally messed up your entire post with your cut and paste editing. If you can't respond to what was written, then don't respond at all.

Eric Stevens
Sure I've messeed it up. I've tried to pput it back the way it was before you tampered with it.

Blaming me for your creative editing, huh? Haha, priceless.

If I was wrong I will admit I to being wrong but there is no way I will admit to lying.

Sandman
So, where is your admittance?

This Eric ignored in his creative editing.

Eric Stevens
YYou might have got an answer if you hadn't tried to obscure the nature of the question.

So, where is your admittance, Eric?

Here Sandman gets confused. I've a good mind to let the text stand (but I won't).

Sandman
Eric is more concerned with his trolling edits of the post than to respond on topic.

Eric Stevens
I had wanted to carry on an intelligent dialogue but I have no intention to try and respond to the debris you havve created out of the original text.

You've never ever wanted to carry on an intelligent dialogue in this group. Ever. It just hasn't happened. All you have ever done is troll.

"But that's not the end of the fun - Eric is making a huge deal about the supposed magnetic switch in the iPad. Only, it's not a switch at all. It's a magnetic sensor. Ooops."

Sandman
What I am *not* saying above is that there are no switches in an iPad, contrary to your claim.

Eric ignored this fact as well, meaning that his claim remains unsupported and he remains a liar.

Eric Stevens
Who said what? Your creative use of quote marks makes it impossible to tell who is claiming what.

Why does it matter, really? You have been asked to provide support for your claim. The above quote, regardless of who wrote it, isn't support for your claim.

Here is your claim again, that remains unsupported and unretracted:

"You are also the guy who claimed there are no switches in iPads"

I am waiting for support or admittance of error from you, or you remain a liar.

That's correct, right at the beginning of the thread, you (and we) were talking about iPads. This is your thread, your subject.

Sandman
Incorrect. You started to talk about iPads, not I. I have merely been correcting your misinformation.

Eric Stevens
"Eric is making a huge deal about the supposed magnetic switch in the iPad. Only, it's not a switch at all. It's a magnetic sensor."

Sandman
Do you have a point? Or are you so incompetent that you think this is the first time someone talked about an iPad in this thread?

Eric Stevens
Are you confused? That's your contribution.

I am telling you that you were the one that started to talk about iPads. Your quote above does not counter that claim in any way, shape of from. It was, as is usual from you, an irrelevant quote.

Sandman
You have yet to support the above claim, or retracted it. You remain a liar.

You did not remedy this in this post either.

And neither in this one. You're so focused on your creative editing of posts that you totally miss the topic.

Eric Stevens
Putting it back after you havve done your best to distort it is creative editing. Haw. Idiot.

You're not "putting" anything back. You're cutting and pasting things way out of context and making a huge mess of your posts that make them totally illegible.

Sandman
Calling someone "Dumb-brain", regardless of how utterly idiotic and immature it makes yourself look, certainly qualifies as a personal insult. Trying desperately to pass it off as a "justified comment" changes nothing.

Eric Stevens
You don't have a reputation for being friendly and when you launch an attack on a person for a matter which has already been amicably settled between the parties you can expect to be put back in your place.

Sandman
I am never the one that starts with the name calling, you trolls are. Like clock work. When you've lost an argument, the name calling follows shortly after. It's a tell-tale sign.

Another part that Eric just glosses over, trying to ignore it.

Eric Stevens
It was an accurate and well deserved title for you at that moment.

It was also a personal attack which you started, prompted by nothing from me, showing quite clearly how you trolls always initiate the personal attacks, like I said.

The fact that is was a personal attack as expected from a seven year old boy just made it hilarious to see from someone as old as you. I almost expected you to follow it up with "poo-pants" or something like that.

Sandman
I chopped nothing but the parts I was not responding to, and thus no longer part of the discussion. I always trim my post. I don't edit them to make them appear as something was said that wasn't, like you do.

Eric Stevens
Oh sure. Time and time again your deletion of the parts you were not responding to led to changes in the meaning.

You are a dishonest rogue.

Incorrect, liar.
