(I didn't see anywhere to even type "Post Deleted"
in place of the original heading as a heads-up.

Was one of them by chance the one where you brought up the 48/2(9+3) thing, despite us already having a stickied thread on the topic telling you not to do just that? I.e. you completely ignored that thread to post your ignorant arguments? Just making sure.

No, that "thing" was posted after the (first) three were removed.

I checked one of your deleted posts (it was in a quote, and I guess they hadn't deleted the quote). To me, it looked like useless nitpicking of the highest order. Others of your posts seem to follow a similar vein. Are you actually here to learn/teach or just to nitpick over other user's word choice?
 
Ccccccccccccccccc

That is your opinion of all three highlighted above.
I never want something attributed to me that I never claimed in a post.
If the OP had stated it as a fact, then there would have been no reason
for the OP to ask it. This is a case of the replier not paying careful
enough attention to what was stated/asked.

Well, duh. That's why I said "to me". Just to check, is English your first language?

I never want something attributed to me that I never claimed in a post.

I'm not even sure why this sentence is here (seriously, no one attributed anything to you that you never claimed).

If the OP had stated it as a fact, then there would have been no reason
for the OP to ask it.

It was a simple word error. It didn't need to be called out, and then the calling out defended. Do you really not see that?

This is a case of the replier not paying careful

...Sigh. Just sigh.
