And while you were doing that you were also continuing to claim I had fabricated the 90% statistic? That seems a bit strange, no?

I explained how I'd reached the figure I'd quoted and listed all the sources. Why would you continue to claim I'd made the statistic up AFTER you'd seen that?

because you FAILED to provide a direct link to a quotation all you provided was a list of websites, Had you provided a direct link to the quotation you would not have been called out for lying. Why did you not provided a direct link to the quotation in question.

Why did you not provide a direct link to the quotation? that seems much more strange.

Yes tell us Effhim why could you not provide a direct link to your quotation? Tell us if you had provided a direct link would you have been accused of lying?

'If in doubt, call someone a liar' is not a very funny or pleasant modus operandi, robbie.

But why were you accusing me of lying? It didn't make sense to be accusing me of lying.

sorry effhim i fail to see where you answer the questions, here they are again,

why could you not provided a direct link to your quotation? had you provided a direct link would you have been accused of lying?

You could not provided a direct link because you were being accused of lying? Umm that doesnt even make sense. Infact its nonsense, being caused of anything does not prevent you from providing a direct link.

So, what then? I was somehow at fault for making you accuse me of lying because I only cited my sources and did not give you direct links?

So you calling me a liar was my fault? Is that how it works?

Yes you are to blame for your failure to provide a direct link, probably in full knowledge that you would be called out for being a liar so that you could be exonerated later after you managed to produce it. The deal was link or lie Effhim, you FAILED to produce a direct link and we had no choice but to call you out.

So when I explained how I'd found the statistic and cited 7-8 reputable web sites/organizations, you thought to yourself I'll just continue to call him a liar, is that how it was?

You "had no choice" but to keep calling me a liar?

Joke or serious explanation?

It was link or lie Effhim! You failed to provide a direct link and we called you out, that's how it works.

And this kind of behaviour by you doesn't qualify as 'bullying'?

In what universe is calling for corroborative evidence bullying?

Calling someone a liar repeatedly and then claiming later that it was because you were too impatient to check the sources that had been cited is a pretty daft way for you to be carrying on.
