<p>Themagnanomous, get over the fact that you aren't getting into Brown.... Jesh, talk about maturity.</p>
<p>It seems the posters here don't understand the issue. Calipharius, it was an error of comission, not of omission as you stated. My statement about the board being undermined was hyperbolic in nature. If you are going to send me a private message that says one thing, and then post publicly something that says the opposite, then yes you're right, the private message function is useless. Violating the terms of the service? I assume this was a joke. Matm1, I am already at a top 40 school, while Brown is a great school, I would hardly be upset to return here. I find it interesting that the posters in this thread seem to regard confidentiality ahead of honesty. In my opinion, this message board is useful for sharing information, not for passing secrets from one user to another. Enough said on this topic.</p>

<p>...and sharing information that is irrelevant to you... right.</p>
<p>Ah well, I am so very fond of milquetoasts.</p>

<p>Nobody on this board seems to care that nspeds "lied" about applying to Brown other than you.</p>
<p>In any case, I can verify that he really was told this information by a credible source within the admissions office. He was not lying in that regard.</p>
<p>It's good that that info has been verified, and I am grateful for that.</p>

<p>I overestimated how much people would care. However, I still think its relevant that someone who posts very often (over 5 posts a day) seems to have no qualms about lying....just thought it was relevant for others who may read his posts.</p>

<p>Submissive to popular opinion. You are not an independent thinker in the least.</p>
<p>I cannot stand intellectual inferiors. Simply stop posting. You can offer no defense for your actions, unless your life some how depended on my Brown transfer application.</p>

<p>Clearly you can stand so-called inferiors since you persist in posting on this board. My actions require no defense, any defense given is voluntary. You're the one who lied about applying to Brown, so it seems that admission to Brown (or the perceptions of others) are quite important to you.</p>

<p>Yes... and exposing a private message, the contents of which had nothing to do with this forum, is somehow detrimental to the integrity of CC.</p>
<p>The Brown decision was not really important to me; what was important was that my privacy should have been maintained.</p>

<p>Clearly, that is the primary function of the board. However, not all information ought to be posted for everyone to read. It was with this idea that the private messaging system was created. It also concords, incidently, with nsped's intention in sending you this now infamous private message.</p>
<p>Eh, Mag doesn't seem unworthy of communication on account of a severe lack of cerebral prowess... Rather, he seems misguidedly-righteous and overly sophistical. I have a hard time believing his indecent-exposure was in pursuit of truth, and not simply an * ad hominem* attack. Don't communicate with him because he's a conniving jerk, not because of his intellect.</p>
<p>Haha, how about I cease communication because of both?</p>
<p>nspeds, your posts stink of arrogance (I can't stand intellectual inferiors!). I'd wager that character trait had something to do with your rejection from Brown.</p>

<p>No. I know why I was rejected, which is... gasp... why I was speaking to an admissions officer!</p>
<p>I knew I could not trust you to piece together the puzzle pieces.</p>
<p>Tut-tut, the truth-detectives on this forum have failed in their purusit of truth.</p>

your rejection from Brown.

<p>I suppose that also had something to do with my rejection from Georgetown...

<p>...
or wait a minute...</p>
<p>Okay, right, I go here. Never mind.</p>
<p>wow, u guys gottttta calm down, disclosing pms is really ridiculous, it defeats the purpose</p>
<p>We are now calm. I have sent a disclaimer: do not send me a private message saying something, if you are going to post contrary info publicly. Thats all I want to say.</p>
<p>I wouldn't worry about the disclaimer. I don't think many people, on this board at least, will even consider private messaging you...</p>
<p>A few things...</p>
<p>Above all, I think TheMagnanimous had a worthy intent by questioning the truth of nspeds' post. Also, why is it that nspeds and calipharius are so determined to condescend other people on the forum? Any mature individual would not resort to name-calling or referring to other members as inferior, it's just plain puerile. As someone who was not at his computer while all this conversing was going on, I had the ability to just now read through the exchange... and the most obvious and disturbing part of all of it is the incessant debasing of another member who sought to clarify a statement made by another poster. The fact is that nspeds disclosed the information that he applied to Brown of his own accord to another member. After this, nspeds posted in this thread making other statements regarding the transfer numbers at Brown, claiming a reliable source for this info. Once these numbers were confirmed by others, nspeds proceeded to prop himself on a pedestal (see page 3, second post from top) as an icon of perfect repute and standing. And yet he publicly made a false declaration, brought to my attention by TheMagnanimous. I thank him for doing so, because now, after reading how abrasive nspeds was before and after Magnanimous' post, I realized that even if he provided valid information in regards to the transfer numbers for Brown, his attitude and demeanor on this message board is discouraging. I'm sure that nspeds and others do not care if I feel that their continuous haughtiness is degrading to the forum, but one cannot reasonably expect such characters to run wildly around this message board and be well received by others who seek out integrity and friendliness. TheMagnanimous' actions are hardly a troubling issue; in fact, I am glad that someone was able to shed some light on the person who aggressively denounces everyone as being inferior just for the sake of doing so. This person, nspeds, is no divine messenger, and he cannot be upset by the publication of his own words, after insulting others on this message board where people seek the truth.</p>
