@Heliotrope

You stated "Then you can just mention the book and the page number", Im sure if you ever went to Uni you would know that there are resources other than books.

Well not be taken very seriously by you, I was unaware you represented some coalition within IE.
Im not invalidating anything, my claims need to be true thats all, not being able to support the sky being blue to a blind person, doesnt make it not blue.

Yes, that's why I said "You can mention the source, even if it's not a book."

I don't, and have never claimed to do so.

Yes, they need to be true, and your constant refusal to share sources make it less than persuasive that they actually are, because they not verifiable. The fact that you almost never produce a source makes it especially suspect.
And neither of us is blind, but you claim the sky is a different color than I perceive it to be, so I'd like to be able to see how you've reached your conclusion.

Thats why I wrote "Im sure if you ever went to Uni you would know that there are resources other than books". I realize that I can cite whatever sources I want.
Good to see you still just rep @Heliotrope
Im not aware of any obligation or mandate to persuade @Heliotrop of anything.
Im not responsible for the perceptions of @Heliotrope.

Of course, that's what I was saying - you can use other sources. But if you did go to Uni, you'd know that you have to actually mention them then.
Try writing a thesis, and instead of mentioning the actual sources (books, articles or other) you'd only write "I only write from experience, research and trusted and reliable sources". I'm quite sure actual universities would fail you for that.

Then if you went to Uni, you would know I dont have to do anything. I can absolutely write a thesis and not have any sources at all.

But you claim to have sources (reliable ones!), but fail to share them. That wouldn't go over well in University.

This isnt university, nor is there some requirement to apply standards on a university to this forum.

Ah, no sources then to support your claim, as usual.
Ok.

No, they arent. You stated "no sources then to support your claim", and I specifically included in my reply that my posts originate from among others "reliable and trusted SOURCES".

We disagree, mostly because youre wrong.

Yes, but when you keep repeating that post after post without ever being willing to share any of your 'sources', it just reads as "I have no sources to support my claim". So that's why I wrote that those are just different words for what I said earlier ("Ah, no sources then to support your claim, as usual").

Plus, I have a credible source that tells me that you're making up most, if not all of your sources.

So yes, we disagree.

@Heliotrope

Yes, and then you always reply that I have to do something because @Heliotrope says so and if I dont it means X or Y, because @Heliotrope says so. In this case @Heliotrope s interpretation and perception of how something "reads" somehow matters because @Heliotrope says it does.
I only post from experience, research and reliable and trusted sources, it means exactly that. I have no mandate or obligation to prove, supply, demonstrate, explain, etc. anything to @Heliotrope if that means something different to @Heliotrope, than meh Ill try really hard not to lose any sleep over it.

I disagree with you and your source.
