Yeah, he was outta line for the name-calling, but he did have a point hidden under that (see below).

There is no hypocrisy because I did not say what you said I said in this quote.

He was referring to perceived hypocrisy of you telling me I shouldn't try to argue about this, and then you going ahead and arguing yourself. *shrug*

I never said he could not do a good job , you said that not me , I challenge you to find any post on this Forum where I said "Chirs cannot do a good job".

Read the second part of what you quoted, dude.

Either you judge that all pwa members, and thus Chris (in this hypothetical situation) would need to spend 100% of their time on graal doing PWA work and if they don't do that then they're not doing a good job, OR you aren't making that judgement. Make up your mind.

You clearly apply that judgement to Chris. I don't care that you try to write it off as an opinion - it's obvious that these are opinions, and those of us who are posting are elaborating on why your opinions are incorrect, and in some cases contradictory. The main point (where you are contradicting yourself) is enumerated in the quote of what I said, so I shant restate it.

To give 100% of yourself to one job does not mean you can give 100% to more that one , that isn't even good math. 100% is exactly that not 50/50 not 75/25 it is 100%. If you divide your time then you are not giving 100% to either job that is my only point not whether you are doing a good job or not .

Except that you said that for someone to be a good PWA member, they have to spend 100% of their time on graal doing PWA work. Therefore, if they are not spending 100% of their time on graal doing PWA work, they are not a good PWA member. Here's the first contradiction - you're not contradicting yourself, but instead you are contradicting logic. I'll point this one out anyway since you seem to have trouble locating them.
And, as Kaimetsu and I have both stated, why can't you (by the same argument) extend this to how you divide your time between real life and graal? I mean, it is a divison of your time. However, you disagree. That's your second contradictory-to-logic statement.

You may do a good job at both but you cannot give your best to both because you have to split yourself so therefore it is NOT 100% to either. You are the only one that tried to say I said anyone who doesn't give 100% does a bad job, that is not what I said so therefore there is no contradiction.
|
Um, who said you can't give your best to both? I'm still trying to figure that one out. If you've got a job that doesn't require you to be working 100% of your time, it's foolish to think that you must devote 100% of your time to a job in order to do it well. Perhaps if you qualified your statement with a suffix such as "To be available during 100% of your time", it'd have some validity; else, it's completely invalid and illogical.
Aside from that, as I believe Kaimetsu and I have also both stated as well, how good a job you do as a PWA member is unrelated to the % of your time you dedicate to doing PWA duties, it's the amount of time
period you dedicate to PWA. What's better (assuming these people are equivalent, other than what I mention): Someone who's got 10 available hours per day to be on graal, and dedicates 8 of them to PWA, or someone who's got 5 hours per day to be on graal, and dedicates all of them to PWA? Surely you won't say the latter, as the former can be contacted during a larger window, and thus can deal with situations more expediently?

I'm not. I merely want him to realize the error in his statements. Considering past history, this probably won't happen - however, it can't hurt to try.
