Pedantic? That’s just an adjective. Definitions have multiple meanings. An Insult from your research is over broad and not my intended use.
My usage was one who unduly emphasizes minutiae in the presentation or use of knowledge. I think that definition was on point. Your intention was not to debate the point about the disparity in our rigs from the industry. It was to nullify his whole argument by finding one meaningless flaw in the argument. Which I think is disingenuous.
The examples I gave of a 17 hour 4-day and an 11 hour 3-day are egregious enough to prove the point.
Wow, you don't disappoint. So you meant lazy bum as good natured ribbing, yet double down on lazy. I didn't ask others to provide information. I wasn't debating the subject. I simply asked ogar to provide specifics on the information he said he had. I couldn't find any. You decided to insert yourself and you couldn't find any either. Now you say that your other insult was just an adjective. Well, I won't stoop to your level.
As far as debating goes, what exactly are you trying to debate? Is it that ogars' statement was hyperbole? If so, why did you take time to look up pairings instead of just saying so? Is it that we have pairings that pay 15 hours, because I never stated that we didn't.
If you think that a lot of the items that are complained about on here are going to get addressed, I suggest you read the update from LEC 26.
