No, it just shows how people on Anandtech argue. If someone says they are going to X school, the immediate argument is that they couldn't get into Y school, and that is why they think the way they do. In reality there are numerous reasons why people choose certain schools. If someone chooses a school based solely on it's ranking they are a fool.

You really need to reread this thread. I posted saying
"RabidMongoose isn't judging people that come from Troy State - he's only judging the reputation of the school, which is obviously very low. Judging the reputation of the school does not mean you are judging the people. He's also true about Alabama schools, but I would say Auburn and Alabama are decent for state schools.
And nobody cares for your life story."
Rabid replies agreeing with me. Then you exploded as usual.

I've reread it plenty. You both made several posts attacking me. If it was just about the reputation of the school then I would have disagreed but no gotten personal. However, he said all schools in AL sucked for undergrad, and you both kept insulting me. Why would I not respond with inflammatory comments?

I have posted graduate school rankings here for tons of people, even as recently as yesterday or the day before. I almost always say that rankings aren't everything, but useful, etc, etc, etc.
It seems like there isn't a real argument until you say "Do you and CanOWorms suck each other off". Certainly looks like you were trying to start a fight.
True, but the severity of your insults were staggering. You didn't just call me an elitist - you called me an elitist asshole, insulted where I used to go to school, and basically said that I judge people from where they went to college. I then commented on saying how I don't care for irrelevant information about your life story and what not. Hardly as offensive as calling someone an asshole and judgemental. You then went on and said I 'suck others off' and a prick, etc.
Perhaps I should have responded with "Please dont' post information about your life that has no relevance to my post" - but your abrasive post didn't warrant such a reply either. You always have to go to a personal level.

It only got personal with your reply. My reply to you and Rabid's reply to me were tame.

Sure, I said that I don't want to hear about your life or how you cry at nights - after your severely insulting comments.
My post had plenty of relevance. As I already said I was trying to show that people don't just pick a school because they suck. I'd think 3-4 posts saying sh!t about me posting my life story(two sentences about why some people don't go for top tier) is a bit much and worthy of a flame. I went personal because you did insult me by saying Undergrad in Alabama sucks.
Hardly. Saying that I don't want to hear about your life isn't as inflammatory or as personally degrading as saying that I suck someone off or whatever, an asshole, prick, insult my school (which is ironic b/c I wrongly insulted your school which started your insults), etc.

That's your opinion, but It was between him and I to begin with. I think what he said was sufficient cause for my reaction. If you disagree you disagree, but that's how I feel.
He said it doesn't reflect the nature of the people though.
Seriously, do you get all uppity if someone says 'hi' instead of a proper 'hello' to you?
It looks like a discussion about Alabama schools till you get there. Your comments are the first personal attacks in the thread.
Yes, but not personally. Saying 'UAB Sucks' is far more different than saying 'RabidMongoose is an ahole, prick, etc.' Also in your own reply you said that my school sucked in its population.

The difference is I'll let you keep your opinion/feelings and not go on a crazy, brutish crusade.
From your post it did appear if you were being an elitist asshole. From my post you cannot construe two sentences of background as posting a personal story.

You lobbed plenty of insults.
