And now for a post-mortem from a "noname," Jon Van Caneghem—the alter ego of the creator of Heroes and a scientist in reality, who has been playing Heroes III since 1999 and streaming periodically since the early 2010s.
The problem, of course, lies far more within Yar than in the Topic Starter. This is clearly evident from the correspondence, the streams, the attitude toward various things, as well as messages on this forum and specifically in this thread, and generally from the cognitive abilities and behaviorism of this little man, who it's unclear what he's trying to pose as.
Whether they are nonames or not makes no difference to a person possessing an intellect even slightly above mediocre, for any educated or not-entirely-stupid person understands that there is no authority but the truth.
Here, I will mostly examine the problem from the perspective of formal logic and the mental capacities of the distinguished party.
Overall, Merlin wrote everything correctly in brief. Only the problem goes deeper. I think Merlin simply didn't bother spending time on a detailed description, although it is evident that he certainly understands the roots of the problem.
And I note that a constructive recommendation was given, not just advice (by Merlin). There is a big difference. But, of course, Yar lacks even basic or advanced wisdom (or at most 'basic', while he believes he has 'expert', as he himself said on streams, which says a lot about him, in conjunction with an inability to use formal logic and so on), so how could he understand the enormous linguistic and semantic gap between these words.
How do you easily identify an uneducated ignoramus? Well, for example, by the incorrect use of the word "adequate," which Yar does constantly (he even raised a flag over the Castle with his low level of intelligence), as do many people with mediocre or below-average intellect. One can and should be adequate *to* something; the word "adequate" without a reference has no semantic load or power. Only in the minds of uneducated young people like Yar do phrases like "adequate behavior" make sense. Adequate to what? Are you behaving 'adequately'? Adequate to what, again? Apparently, adequate to a monkey in a cage undergoing violent experiments.
"Gone own-way? Examples?" — I think examples are unnecessary when they are as plain as day to everyone except you, Yar. Even here in this thread and on the forum, you behave like a princess.
And yes, Yar undoubtedly broke through in streaming largely through sycophancy and bootlicking. He licked and sucked up to Tvaryna and many others (including me, for that matter). At first, he behaved more modestly, but as his viewer base grew, he suddenly began to behave in a maximally arrogant and rude manner (i.e., he was an arrogant jerk before this too, but also a cowardly prude and a hypocrite).
Some random provocations—and note that he doesn't even hide the fact that he "just provoked the guy," as if he considers this some kind of achievement or reason to boast. A clear pathology. If you are a troll and consider trolling something good, you are still an idiot.
In short, a hypocritical creature with double or triple standards. He reminds me of emotional, brainless feminists, sjws, and other far-leftists unburdened by intelligence, who conform only in the way that is convenient for them. Exactly. From this day forward, Yar will be known in the community as 'hypocritical brainless sjw feminist #1' from Heroes III.
"why is Merlin so funny? did he fall into a comedy show as a child? i don't mind playing when there's time, maybe next week." — quoting Yar — what do we see here? More hypocrisy. The little man considers a question from EPAM.grade an insult and allows for a ban over such things, but at the same time allows himself to ask similar unethical and generally offensive questions here.
Yar, being a cowardly person, fears publicity and public condemnation. Similar psychology was observed in automating conformism (of fascism, for example). He essentially removes responsibility from himself, trying to prove to himself that supposedly there is no one on the topic starter's side. Although both Merlin and some others have already presented logical arguments against Yar. But he remains in the fog of war, like a fanatic who does not perceive reality.
Actually, everyone knows that Yar is not very strong as a player, nor as an organizer. Of course, Tvaryna isn't very smart either, for promoting this boy and petty content thief. Of course, not everyone can be scientists, intellectuals, or even more so geniuses who read many moves ahead.
"Another one, didn't watch the matches, but has an opinion! well done
just like the topic author, who doesn't get it and sticks his nose where it doesn't belong, a typical television couch analyst! ROUND"
What "round"? What are you talking about, patient? Just as one who sees shit and does not step in it, Pridu or anyone else does not need to watch matches to understand the problem of this topic, nor your skeletons in the closet.
Furthermore, what do you mean 'where it doesn't belong'? You are in a public space, simpleton. Here, everything is everyone's business; everyone is involved. If you don't want to be reasonably criticized and ridiculed, then don't go into the public eye.
"If a stranger came into your house and started demanding rights, would you pat him on the head?" — if this was such a stupid and ignorant analogy on stream, it is completely incorrect. You are nobody on Twitch. And in general, you are nobody, like any other person, yet you try to pose as something incomprehensible. You simply rent a channel on Twitch; nothing belongs to you. If they want to ban you—they'll ban you. And let me explain your own move to you, simpleton. You write to the TS that "I will ask you to ban [him] on the forum," well, by that same logic, I can ask to have you banned on Twitch. Do you understand how short-sighted and pathetic you are? In 2 years, I haven't seen or heard a single logical argument from you, only outbursts like 'hehehe, round, mbe', as if you were a 14-year-old schoolboy rather than a 34-year-old man. If you think that being a 'troll' is fashionable, stylish, and youthful, I will disappoint you: you are about 15 years behind the times; even back in 2005 on the internet, trolling and provoking was stupid—mere mouse-fighting—but not everyone understood or understands this.
"What do you want? i don't understand your motivation, no one supported you here, you keep trying to prove something, showing that you don't understand where you are and who you are." — seriously, the patient should be admitted to a clinic. I state this despite being an anti-psychiatrist. But here it is really a case of either physical brain damage or some clear pathology in Yar's brain.
"people in society know this; you need to study more"
"and you are anonymous; and a noname at that"
Guys like Yar have always amused me. And there are many such simple-minded people, really many. Politicians love to play on these types, by the way. Argumentum ad hominem — a classic appeal to people through emotion rather than logic. Classic cognitive biases and logical errors. All the funnier it is to watch this little man write "logical?" while committing an obvious logical error and sophism. A sight that is simultaneously ridiculous and sad. At the same time, I note that Yar is not even capable of constructing a proper sentence; everything is in some fragmented pieces, like an infantile chat-user from 2000 (though why 'like'? The infantilism has been obvious for a long time. Infantility is perhaps one of his main characteristics).
EPAM.grade, certainly, your question was not constructive. And it was poorly formulated. But the reaction was also completely inadequate to the rational thinking of a rational person.
In general, of course, it's funny that such things are discussed. I have correspondences with Noam Chomsky, full of depth and rationality, and other great minds lying around without discussion, yet here we discuss such rubbish. Mde. Oh times, oh customs. But fine, as an intellectual, noblesse oblige dictates that I point out the problems of society and, in this case, to the micro-society and community of Heroes. But there is no obvious solution, for it's impossible to enlighten and educate everyone, and people like Yar have no desire to be free and educated; Herzen understood this in his time, describing it in his works. Sapienti sat.
The same goes for crowds of mediocre people like Yar, such as Vigo, who write nonsense like: "Let's not show off, professor ) If you're writing, then don't write 'in the Russian way' but 'in Russian', smart-ass mlya )"
Holy illiteracy. Ignorance is bliss.
And yes, the division into classes, a semblance of castes, was, is, and always will be. Such is nature, biology, and evolution. People in all times divided each other into 'us-them'. A similar dichotomy existed and will exist as long as people live.
I think an attentive observer can easily even figure out who wrote this. Until a possible contact.
