To be fair Graham, you do seem to only post negative news stories. Perhaps you are suffering from depression and need to see your GP for appropriate treatment?

RM diagnoses GD with depression ! :rotfl:

He's diagnosed me with some sort of mental illness too, along with having sockie accounts. :rotfl::rotfl: I think we can say for sure that RM's advice should be taken with a pinch of salt, or should that be a bucket full of the stuff ?

Coming from another new user pretending to have just arrived, but having issues with the same posters....can I just ask....what you're actual problem is?

I mean, have you got one....other than having a problem with myself after having to ditch your old username and come back with another to provide yourself with some much needed cred?

Let's not pretend this is about articles posted eh. It's personal, obviously. Only I'm still happy to use the same username, and for whatever reason, you are not, and take a vague issue with myself, trying to suggest I'm mentally !!!!!!.

So what did I say to you under your old username? What did you have issues debating?

It's not personal at all, I didn't set out to offend. I just noticed a few negative topics from the same username and thought something looked a bit fishy, so I looked at your profile.

I did have another username a while ago which must have only had a handful of posts on the car insurance board. I don't think we crossed paths then.

I don't think you're mentally !!!!!!, you just have a negative personality. I'd rather you kept it to yourself, but it's your right to post your opinions here.

Lovely retreat....

But, your problem? What is it? It appears after all the hoo hah, you don't actually have one?

I'm blown away. No really, I am.

May I remind you of your own words...

It always fascinates me when people on forums start to judge others because their actions/comments do not fall in line with what they perceive to be morally (or legally) acceptable.

All of you who decided to take the opportunity to accuse, offend and judge should be ashamed.

Now....go away eh.

Many Humans have need of a narrative upon which to fixate with puritan zeal.

Graham would likely always have had this need. In the 16th century perhaps it would have taken the shape of a litteral puritanical religious bent, declaring the end was neigh, a commonly held view at that time possibly stemming from European fractures and worries of being overthrown by Spain. Danger seemed omnipresent.

EVERY generation has it's proportion of people of this exact midset. It's very likely to be a Darwinian survival imperitive - fill the tribe with a handful of doomsayers ('realists') and thus give the tribe a reality check to keep it on guard for danger.

It's conditions of worth compell it to seek some latter day villification when at last the day comes they can say 'see, I was right all along'. It gives a satisfying sense of purpose to be this outlier on the lookout for danger, carefuly gathering evidence to proove danger lies just ahead.

This persona type can only function with such an outlook, always with a sense of impending danger. Humans will survive billions of years here and elsewhere and in every generation there will be end is nigh types, but no matter how many times they're wrong, still they come.

CARE TO GUESS HOW MANY TIMES HIGH PROFILE PUNDITS HAVE PREDICTED IMMINENT PEAK OIL? Since 1880, there have been well over 100 expert separate predictions that peak oil had been reached, was about to be reached.

So Devon is merely a function of his DNA and subconscious just as we all are - you for example did not wake up aged 12 and say to yourself 'mmm, I think I'm gonna like punk music, brussel sprouts and women'. It's just innate, a function of the processes going on at energy field level in your embodied mind. Free will is an illusion.

You think you chose to enjoy cruises, but you didn't ever make that desirious instinct that made you feel at home on a cruise.

“We all need to try to understand what is happening. We need to try to understand what is happening, and in my humble opinion, ideology is only going to get in your way. Nobody understands what is happening… not Buddhists, not Christians, not government scientists…not, ya know, no one understands what is happening. So forget ideology. They betray. They limit. They lead astray. Just deal with the raw data, and trust yourself. Nobody is smarter than you are. And what if they are? What good is their understanding doing you? People who walk around saying, 'Well, I don’t understand quantum physics, but somewhere, somebody understands it.'… that’s not a very helpful attitude toward preserving the insights of quantum physics. Inform yourself. What does “inform yourself” mean? It means [to] transcend and mistrust ideology. Go for direct experience. What do you think when you face the waterfall? What do you think when you have sex? What do you think when you take psilocybin? Everything else is un-confirmable rumor, useless, probably lies. So liberate yourself from the illusion of culture. Take responsibility for what you think and what you do." Jimmy mckenna

I never said I had a problem.

My initial assumption was that you were hired by MSE to post negative stories to encourage debate. That seemed to be the only logical explanation for posting 16 depressing posts every single day for the past 7 years (which you still haven't explained).

Then Conrad suggested it could simply be an innate personality trait, which I disagreed with.

Whether you were hired or just a negative person, I don't have a problem with that. Just making an observation.

And you are, in your own words, worried for my mental wellbeing? Yet you are the one conjuring up the conspiracy theories?

I'm done with you now, as you are boring me.

Considering that you have made 16 depressing posts every single day for 7 years (which you still haven't explained), I think a conspiracy theory that you were hired by MSE is the best possible explanation for you.

The other explanations are all a bit concerning, which is why the thread derailed into concern for your mental wellbeing.
