The advice I am giving you is honest and offered in good faith. Make of it what you will.
When do you think you developed your interpersonal skills ~ such that you have ~ for engaging in conversations with non-Christians? Did you acquire those skills before the age of 24 (in my case, yes, I had learnt those skills before I was 24) or did you learn the skills/approach that you now employ during your post-cult life?

You are not that yet. Far from it. As for me, I still had plenty of growing up to do when I was 24.

Originally posted by @fmfIf I am not mistaken there have been as many if not more people here that have disengaged you. Could that possibly be because you are a decent and sincere conversationalist?

Originally posted by @fmfAh yes when people stop talking to me it's my fault but when people stop talking to you it's their fault. #FMFlogic

Originally posted by @dj2beckerWell, I am sure KellyJay thought it was my fault and it seemed to have something to do - in his mind - with him having lost a child. He most certainly thought he was a victim. If he misunderstood or took something the wrong way, then perhaps in a sense, he sincerely felt he was a victim.
Ah yes when people stop talking to me it's my fault but when people stop talking to you it's their fault.
You said: If I am not mistaken there have been as many if not more people here that have disengaged you. We are both aware of KellyJay. So that's one.

Originally posted by @dj2beckerHe said the government should not interfere to protect children from their fanatical parents in the case of religion; I said that the government should. He never talked to me again. You call it how you see it. I think whatever upset KellyJay about that disagreement was all in his mind, so it was not my fault.
So it was Kelly's fault that he stopped talking to you? Or was it your fault?
But anyway, let's say for the sake of argument, I was at fault for saying something truly awful in the course of that discussion. That's KellyJay, and that's one person who disengaged me [he also disengaged from twhitehead, Rajk999 and divegeester, for sure and I think several others besides].
Now you said ...there have been as many if not more people here that have disengaged you. Let's count KellyJay as one [just for the sake of argument]. Who else had you in mind?
Originally posted by @fmfGhost is the only poster that I am aware of that has told me not to respond to his posts.

It is not mandatory that any poster talk perpetually with any other poster here.
Two people here can talk until one feels that there need be no more talk. That can be on a subject by subject basis or overall. I disengage and reengage as I feel the need, as I feel that the time spent is profitable or not.
Perpetual and monotonous one-upsman-ship between two posters is not the sole emblem that Forum is being used properly.
Originally posted by @dj2beckerMy advice to you was this: take a look at what it is that numerous people here have complained about or why they have disengaged from you. On Thread 175391 page 60 there is a list of people that I know have called you out for ignoring the content of posts they have addressed to you. And yes, Ghost of a Duke is one of the people on that list.
Ghost is the only poster that I am aware of that has told me not to respond to his posts.

Are your tedious spam-posts, sometimes up to 9 at a time without reply, the way this forum should be used?
Originally posted by @fmfYou would be better suited to create a list of the questions that I have asked that you have already answered and provide a link to your answers to those particular questions.

It's just interesting that you always complain about me asking you a question that you have supposedly answered but haven't even been able to reference one of these supposed answers. Not a single one. And it is even more interesting that you do that each time you seem to be on the ropes.

Yes, we’ve all noticed this tactic by you.
