By the way, it's "Nessie", not "nessy"

P.S: I myself think it is extremely not polite to open a thread of asking questions by saying "Hey, this is quickly!"
And, it is surely not polite to say this to our kind dedicated teachers here: "Ok guys. I dare you to watch this interview with Jackie Chan and Chris Tucker... "
You'd better be more careful with your words!

OK NESSIE! Believe what you want to believe. Since I've been writing in here nobody has complained about the way I greet. Not even Teachers, so why do you?

What I perceive here is an offensive air. So, if I did offend you somehow, well I do apologise. But you don't have to be a toady person (look the statement that I highlighted above) and make me look bad in front of everybody else. Was it clear?

P.S: If you add a link make sure it is working...that way everybody can see what you're talking about.

Haha, there's no need for you to get so angry like that, Sergio Laughing now let me answer your feedbacks one by one:

OK NESSIE! Believe what you want to believe
=> I do, of course => no need to tell me!

Since I've been writing in here nobody has complained about the way I greet. Not even Teachers, so why do you?
=> They don't tell you, of course not! However, that doesn't mean they don't feel vexed by the way you are. They are just too kind to speak out. Do you think they will bother to give comments to such triffles?

What I perceive here is an offensive air.
=> Oh, if you think so, why are you still here? (By the way, what I perceive from you is an ungrateful impolite person)

So, if I did offend you somehow, well I do apologise
=> No need to apologize me, I'm used to such kind of people!

But you don't have to be a toady person (look the statement that I highlighted above) and make me look bad in front of everybody else. Was it clear?
=> Hahaha!!! This is so ridiculous! You are childish beyond the words, Sergio. Actually I told you those things not because I tried to please the teachers (If you don't realize it, I joint this forum earlier than you did, and I know about the teachers here more then you do: they DON'T EVER need such flatteries as your childish mind may think!) I told you those simply because of these two reasons:
1. Seeing your impolite way of expressing yourself, I'm sure you're going to get little or no help (believe me! I'm very very much experienced in that) so I just tell you so that you change your own way and so that in the future, you'll get help more quickly and easily, but you, with your childish mind, just think that I want to make you look bad. That's so ridiculous!!! Laughing
2. The second, and most important reason for my being a little bit nosy: I love the teachers here and I just want you to have more decent behaviours towards them in the future (REMEMBER that they are giving their TIME and KNOWLEDGE and EFFORT to you FOR FREE!!!) but you, with your childish mind, think that I was trying to flatter them? haha!!! How ridiculous, too! Laughing

P.S: If you add a link make sure it is working...that way everybody can see what you're talking about.
=> The link is absolutely and perfectly all right. Give your own pc a check before getting mad at me! Laughing Laughing

Don't bother me with all that, don't tell me stories NESSIE. If you consider yourself such a kind and polite person, why do you write such a big message explaining every thing I've mentioned in my last post with a sarcastic style? Needless to say, I didn't ask for it. Plus, I don't think phrases that I higlighted from your last post can come from a mature person which is self-contradictory(regarding politeness)...It is sad to say, but I want you to think about things you said. Because all you have showed me with this is such arrogance that I don't have a civil word to say about you.

P.S:Why do you have to speak on behalf of the teachers?

Calm down Sergio, from the beginning you're so prejudiced against me because you think I wanted to make you look bad. I can understand that. However, as stated above, I have no such intention. Anyway if you are bothered by it that much, then ok, it's all my fault, I'm sorry, happy now? Actually I don't want to make a fuss over triffles because this is a public forum, so one more time: this is all my fault, so let's stop arguing here

P.S: LASTLY, I just want to say that I DON'T EVER DARE to speak ON BEHALF OF the TEACHERS, Sergio. I don't think I have the right to do so, I just stated my OWN idea
