Waste Of Money/Resources

Sprint think that by having nearly 10,000 locations to buy their crap service and devices that it will somehow bring in more customers. The real issue here is that Sprint has lost even more focus than before.

Instead of putting the focus on its own O&O stores and really driving the network forward, faster, and with more finances to solidify the user experience, all these added costly stores and partnerships (like the failed one of RadioShack's 1400 stores, not a single one of them reopened in my city as Sprint as they promised) are only draining more cash and resources from a company that has ADHD. They are hyper on jumping on anything that seems worthwhile, before doing the real research and knowing and understanding their market, but al...

Except everything said was true, you're just lazy and illiterate.

Perhaps when you learn to write using complete sentences and use correct punctuation, then you can call others lazy and illiterate.

Except he did..? It's not perfect, but it's way more readable than a lot of the drivel you see on the internet.

No, it isn't perfect. He didn't use correct punctuation nor write using complete sentences, yet he has the audacity to call me lazy and illiterate.

He epitomizes everything wrong with people today: he composes a humongous, dreadfully boring rant against the policies and practices of a wireless carrier that no one is forcing him to use, then he personally attacks me for daring to call him out for doing so. In the process, he makes himself look like a buffoon.

I don't know what your point is. However, it is ill advised to defend those who merely want to rant and roll without accountability.

No, but you certainly were acting like the other half of the idiot internet when you just said "Tl;dr" without contributing. You're also being a bit of a pot calling the kettle black, making a large (if not quite *as* large) rant about how he 'epitomizes everything wrong with people today', despite that nobody is forcing you to read it, while personally attacking him for not spelling everything perfectly and calling him a buffoon.

I defend people who get stupid criticism, when people don't bother to really read through perfectly legible content. We aren't turning in internet posts to an english teacher, and it's not meant as some kind of professional document.

At least he was contributing to the topic.

TL;DR if you're really too laz...

I doubt that you would be happy or complacent if someone called you lazy and illiterate. I told him his post was too long, and I did not read it all; he attacked me personally. Do you honestly equate criticism of what someone says with personal attacks?

Not at all. I do, however, consider saying that someone needs to type in complete sentences (when most are) and use proper punctuation (when most of it is), to be rather poor criticism - not really worth the point and the lazy "tl;dr" statement. Just saying "TL;DR" isn't saying "the post is too long", if you've kept up with the internet within the last 12-13 years, that term has practically turned into shorthand for "I'm lazy and don't want to read" rather than "this is genuinely too long". It also isn't redundant and actually has genuine points to make.

I recognize he attacked you personally as well. I probably wouldn't take it lying down, but chances are in that case I also wouldn't have just thrown a meme at him and expected to be trea...

Well, there you go again. You lost this argument two posts ago, yet you continue with your ill-conceived talking points.

My guess is that you and Mr. Rawlford79 are the same individual. That would be the only reason to defend a person who responds with personal attacks to criticism of content he or she has shared.

It must be a lonely world in which you live if disagreement with the presentation of ideas is equivalent to disrespect. I know of few people who would tolerate such an extreme overreaction by anyone.

Congratulations. You have declared yourself the "victor" of an argument. In that case, I agree - you 'win' the argument, as you have chosen to be obstinate and petty enough to care about 'winning' an internet argument.

May you continue playing with your ego and lack of reading comprehension in peace.

Just. You know. Kindly don't bother the people who are here to talk about the content. Thanks.

Actually, I did not declare myself the winner; I declared you the loser. You are a loser for defending someone whom you do not know for doing something that is totally inexcusable.
