I have repeatedly posted that Oliver Richman, aka Fu Ren Li and Fu
Renli, is unbearably stupid. The reason for this is his trolling and
flaming of the man we know as "tweet". If he had any idea who tweet
really is, he wouldn't be engaging in the trolling and flaming. Judging
from his trolling\flaming, he assumes tweet is simply some mox nix sys
admin on a game server, and notice of his, Richman's, actions is
confined to this newsgroup. Richman has asked me why I am trying to tear
apart the Go community, as though flames of him matter a hill of beans,
while he continues his campaign\tirade against tweet. Well, Ollie,
flames of you don't matter to anyone, you're a poseur, a nothing, a
nobody, while tweet is known and respected in places that matter to Go
players. tweet went to Japan as a teenager and studied Go, tweet is
_strong_. Those of us that are IGS regulars know that some of the pros
that come to IGS, and that's 90% of all pros in Japan, play with tweet.
So, tweet is known and respected, Richman is a nobody. Flaming a man
like tweet here on rec.games.go is not like flaming the people over in
rec.martial-arts. Flaming tweet here gets noticed in certain places. So,
Richman is not simply some laughing stock on rec.martial-arts, or simply
some blatherskite troll on rgg, he's made himself noticed and a fool in
places that matter, and that's why he's unbearably stupid, he has no
idea of the image that his trolling\flaming of tweet have given him in
places that matter.

That's as blunt as I can make it and remain polite. You disgust me,
Richman, with your puerile flaming of tweet, a man whose boots you
aren't fit to clean. You talk about tearing apart the Go community, you
seem to have no idea what that statement implies in regard to your
own actions.

Methinks that being strong at Go and being above critique as as an
admin of a Go server are two entirely separate issues. While I might
agree with your general sentiment, I honestly do not unerstand what
tweet's strength has to do with the matter here. It is not his Go
prowess being challenged by Renli, is it?

> made himself noticed and a fool in places that matter

You keep repeating this one statement about "places that matter"
without giving any specifics whatsoever. So I get curious and ask:
such as? What are the "places that matter", and why do you think these
places matter, to Renli or anybody else?

Splendid.
But too short.
Are you trying to distract? :)

This is true. See his moronic remarks in the thread about Moyo Go Studio.

Anyway it`s a lesson for tweet : never talk to an idiot because he will drag
you down to his level and win :-)
