Hrmm, perhaps I should explain why "I don't care". Someone made a passing comment that had something to do with you, which I understood given the context of our conversation, after the conversation between me and that person was over you asked for clarification, sure I could have answered but why would I? You didn't ask me, nor does it benefit me to answer you, the conversation had almost nothing to do with you and so it fell on the originator of the comment to answer you. He obviously doesn't want to and thus "I don't particularly care", why would you expect anyone aside from someone involved with the comment to answer you is beyond me... It wasn't "why wont you answer my question" "because I don't care" it was "Why did he say that" "ask him".I did end up asking you, actually. Also, this statement you put out:

To be fair I don't think anyone else cares.is what threw me off.
It seemed like one of those cop-outs that people use to end conversations (e.g. Nobody cares!) I know that's not the case now.
I'd say it was more 'what did he mean by that' when I asked you.

I honestly assumed it was you just looking for more praise and spotlight as you have been known to in the recent past.I don't feel it was for praise or spotlight, but I might be in a bad position to judge that. Honestly I didn't know what he meant. Well, I still don't.
However, I think it's natural to be curious when people say things about you.

I still don't see the spot where you asked me, unless you mean in the general sense when you first asked or do you mean when you said "Don't suppose anyone is going to explain it, though"? Not that it matters as I still don't particularly see a reason to explain another persons passing comment.

It was, and I while don't fault your curiosity I'm still skeptical of your motives. Perhaps if you pm the user in question he'll explain it.
Side-note; these long conversations we/you have where you dont drop something is one of the reasons people respond with "no one cares" cop out responses. While I'm sure I sometimes also elicit the same response from people I tend to try avoiding it when I want something from them. People don't like being badgered until they have to ignore you or are forced to respond.
Again not trying to sound passive aggressive, just throwing out where I stand and what I think.

I think it's a bit more subjective than that. Not really any point in PMing him now since he already expressed disinterest in explaining it.
With text as the medium, it is sometimes hard to tell when someone is running out of patience for something. However, my wariness of cop-outs stems more from the frustration they cause and less from frequency of occurrence.

Telling me I can explain and asking me to explain are different, I hope you understand that. A passive aggressive implication that I should explain something to you is less likely to work than saying, "Paul, please explain what he meant". As you know however with my suspicion of your motives there was little chance I would regardless of method used. Just advice when dealing with others in the future.
Regardless of the cause of your true frustration the advice still stands; if you want to avoid it perhaps alter your approach.

You also understood what I meant, too. Probably not a great example since you wouldn't have answered either way, but your point is noted.

I don't read many posts in that thread but from what I saw, you seem to speak in a different and unprofessional manner when compared to how you usually post as a mod. I think that different manner at which you comment and speak in that thread most of the time is what was being addressed to begin with.
