  • What's funnier is that you think that somehow invalidates his opinion lol

  • It actually does. Unlike me, he doesn't have anything to notify that this is an alt. He's straight up hiding.

    [quote]It actually does. Unlike me, he doesn't have anything to notify that this is an alt. He's straight up hiding.[/quote] You missed the part where not showing his stats doesn't invalidate his opinion. He could have not played this game at all and his opinion would still be valid. [i]because it's his opinion and that's what an opinion is.[/i]

  • Wrong. I dont get the whole "all opinions are valid" No. An opinion is simply how somebody feels. Nothing more nothing less. Just because a person' might have an opinion that the Sun is a ball of Ice, water is dry, or Activision is a wholsesome company, doesnt't mean they can't be wrong

    [quote]Wrong. I dont get the whole "all opinions are valid"[/quote] Okay, so [i]you don't get it[/i]. That doesn't make it wrong. It used to be pretty universally recognized concept. Also, factuality and validity are not the same thing, so I don't know what your examples are expected to accomplish.

  • va·lid·i·ty /vəˈlidədē/ noun 1. the quality of being logically or factually sound; soundness or cogency - www.thefreedictionary.com/validity Yes validity = factual. If your opinion isn't factually sound then it is not valid. Would the CEO of Wal-Mart ask for the opinion of a little boy from N Korea about investment strategies? No. Because his opinion is [i]invalid[/i]

    Yes, thank you, o' pretentious one! I [i]do[/i] know the definitions of "valid". However, an opinion can be factually incorrect. That does not make it an invalid opinion. Validity of an opinion is not based on factuality; It's based on the subjective interpretation of the one receiving the opinion. By the way, if you didn't cherry pick your definition, you would see that "validity" has context [i]far beyond[/i] your cherry picked definition.

    Do you [i]really[/i] not know what cherry picking is? [quote]([i]of an argument or point[/i]) having a sound basis in logic or fact; reasonable or cogent.[/quote] (This is your cherry picked definition. [i]Mind you, an opinion is neither an argumentation nor is it a point of argumentation.[/i]) [quote]having legal efficacy or force; especially executed with the proper legal authority and formalities[/quote] [quote]legally or officially acceptable. [/quote] [quote]appropriate to the end in view<every craft has its own [i]valid[/i] methods>[/quote] (These are the other definitions that you've voluntarily left out.) You see how the definition you picked isn't the [i]only definition of the word??[/i] That's because when certain words are used with certain other words around them, they are given this thing called [i]context[/i]. [i]Once again,[/i] validity of an opinion is not based on factuality, but on the subjective interpretation of the one receiving the opinion. [i]That's why[/i] you don't get it. Not because it's wrong, but because [i]you just don't get it[/i]. [spoiler]also, a CEO wouldn't act based on the opinion of a North Korean boy because his opinion is [i]irrelevant[/i], not [i]invalid[/i].[/spoiler]
