"You did, after all, admit that you went a bit over the top". Yes, I did that on my own initiative, and THEN you followed up with "best to zip it". Stupid of me to try.
Your not exactly "Moder Teresa of debates" yourself.
Never said I was and I don't think anyone here is the model of debate. But then I didn't ask a pointless baiting question either, did I? By the way, I only meant that if you found yourself trying to keep a decent tone (as you yourself pointed out), it's best to zip it, meaning to remain silent. It's you who turned it in to something more.
You seem to view yourself as the epitome of forum etiquette. Why not ask what I meant instead of simply assuming I was stating something different?

I've answered it before and I'll answer it now. She admitted it to Nick while in jail.
Well, let's talk about avoiding questions. You asked me why I watch Grimm. When I came back and asked you why you would ask a question that was none of your business, you chose to ignore the question.
Please do not hold yourself up as someone who responds to all points in a post. You chose to ignore questions. That is your right, just as it's mine to chose to ignore them.

Date and post number please.

But you refuse to answer WHY she then did not betray Nick and accept Renard’s offer to become "first lady of the city" (she had both children with her at the time). Can’t you see that this way of debating can be seen as provocative? I'm not the only one who has pointed this out...In fact, recently, four people have called your claims nonsense (I was one of them).
I actually found several quotes where you mentioned Adalind not betraying Nick and accepting Renard's offer to become the first lady of the city. I do not, however, see where you posed a question to me about it.
Can you provide the post and date where you asked me to respond? Most of what I see are statements, not questions.
Here's the last quote you wrote about Adalind's opportunity to betray Nick, but she chose not to.
Quote:Adalind's feelings for Nick were tested in season 5 when she was forced to move in with Renard. She could have betrayed Nick but did not.

I'm wondering why you can't see that your entire statement is provocative.
Furthermore, I don't get why you continue to debate with me then. Most posters would say what I've been told when a certain poster continued to badger me....Ignore him.
You have an ignore button. Use it.
N Grimm- was just pointing out that your statment about Adalind having no option but to stay loyal and kind to Nick is false, as BC and Renard offers her a far batter option yet she fought them at every turn not to go along with their plan, to the point were Boneparte had to magically force an engagement ring on her hand that would hurt her children to try and force her to be with Renard and even Diana couldn’t force her to betray Nick with Renard.
That’s hardly someone with no options and even when Boneparte was dead she had the option to stay with Renard, she could’ve beeen the Portland Mayors wife and use her powerful daughter to basically rule the city with Renard but instead she chose to help bring down Renard and left him and a mansion to return to Nick in the paint factor.
Remember Renard is a man she had a major crush/ love for in the pasts in seasons she would’ve basically done anything for a glimmer of his affection in season 1, yet when offered the man in season 5 and 6 along with a mansion and powerful organization backing them as Mayor and wife of Portland she chose loyalty to Nick.
