If you didn't intend to say it, then how come you did say it, clearly and unambiguously? It's not like you made a mistake with the phrasing that made the sentence offensive or something. It's offensive no matter how you phrase it.

I guess I should explain, adding that comma made absolutely no difference. You are still implying that, unlike "us", you do admit your faults (which you don't), which is still a superiority complex.


Ok, I admit it even though I didn't intend it

I'm one of those rare prog/metalheads that doesn't have a superiority complex unlike you guys, I admit my faults


You do?  Shocked  So what about one of your earliest posts on this forum where you boasted, "I learn music so I know this sh*t (therefore KC is crap)"?   Did you pause to consider that perhaps there may be people on this forum who have played in bands or even produced music for years?   If that's not a superiority complex, what is?   You may think you are polite and mannered but your words are anything but.  I am not asking you to be, but if you are going to say "unlike you guys" I can talk this language to you.   I am sorry I have to go down this route with you.  I hate doing it, heavens know I tried reasoning with you but you are terribly obstinate. 

Get a mirror, you need it, ASAP.


I made a grammatical error it's supposed to be this:

I'm one of those rare prog/metalheads that doesn't have a superiority complex, unlike you guys I admit my faults

that makes a huge difference
