turtlespeed 220 #101 September 18, 2013 kallend QED Just about every "fact" you claimed to know about either Billvon or myself was incorrect. When this was pointed out, you just took the personal attack route. Oh Emm Gee! You are SUCH the victim!I'm not usually into the whole 3-way thing, but you got me a little excited with that. - Skymama BTR #1 / OTB^5 Official #2 / Hellfish #408 / VSCR #108/Tortuga/Orfun Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
wmw999 2,447 #102 September 18, 2013 Well, let's look at it. Turtle, you're the second biggest postwhore on dz.com, right behind Billvon. If the criterion is quantity, I'd say you're a contender, because some of Billvon's posts are in his role as moderator, and don't count as postwhoring. Of course, Kallend is next behind you in this illustrious category. At the website Rate My Prof, Kallend has a 4.3 out of 5 rating, with a fairly significant number of evaluators, at 32. Given that his "easiness" rating is by far the lowest, I'd have to say that he's at least viewed as being a good professor by his customers, the students. And IIT, while not listed by US News & World Report (not the only arbiter of quality) as a top school, is listed considerably higher in value for your dollar, which is seen as a good thing by people who are looking to actually graduate with a usable degree and not too much debt. So I'd have to say that you're both pretty good at what you do.Since I've identified the standards by which I judge, it's easy to critique them dispassionately, without just calling me an idiot Wendy P. There is nothing more dangerous than breaking a basic safety rule and getting away with it. It removes fear of the consequences and builds false confidence.

wmw999 2,447 #104 September 18, 2013 Ah, but consider he's very close to your level in postwhoring, while I couldn't find any references whatsoever to your ability as a college professor I think that makes him more of a renaissance man Wendy P.

Being Old isn't part of the issue, and I resent you trying to make it a part thereof! That is ageist and I am offended. Why do you hate old people?I'm not usually into the whole 3-way thing, but you got me a little excited with that. - Skymama BTR #1 / OTB^5 Official #2 / Hellfish #408 / VSCR #108/Tortuga/Orfun Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

What makes you think I'm not successful? From your profile: Occupation: Post Whore And you're not very good at it.Ah - but better than you. But I don't claim it as my occupation.Just because you can't prove that you aren't a better teacher than I am a post whore, doesn't mean it's not true.You aren't even a good post whore - you can't even remember that you wrote "law abiding citizen" in a post from one day to the next.
