Jane, being insulting does nothing for how people see you, it doesn't help me, it doesn't help Survival, it only feeds your ego.

I was putting forward that what Fifth said is correct,
A zero sum game is most definitely a situation in which one person’s gain is equivalent to another’s loss, so the net change in wealth or benefit is zero.
Dispute that if you wish, that is your choice, but you would be wrong.
Fifth qualified his/her statement by stating 'minus fees'.
Fees is the worth of expenses and profits.

I agreed that Fifth's qualified statement is workable, and is correct, and is a variation on RCE, and a variation on ZSG, as he/she qualified in his/her post.

Jane, it would help if you could consider that others may have differing views and concepts, and being insulting is simply not nice.

I take that as a "No. I am unable to produce a working example".
I'll let the community decide what that actually means in terms for your credibility.

Jane, the example is in my post, if you don't understand it just don't reply.

Please stop trying to take ownership of every thread, it would be nice to express an opinion or a concept without an attack by yourself.
Thank

You silly goose, there is no example in your posts. I agree with so-and-so and I am right is not an example.
Any attempt to disagree with you, you take as an insult  ::)


Fifth, FYI, none of this is applies to you. You are a great debater and give intelligent, well thought out arguments (sometimes with fantastically showstopping  sarcastic / humorous spin!).

Oh dear ... I have gone so OFF TOPIC.
Moving my replies to RCE = Zero Sum Game Discussion. Sorry for the inconvenience!

... update ... unfortunately the posts following some of my posts make no sense once I remove mine  ::)
So my posts will need to stay in place until (if) these are also redirected. Or the moderator comes along and deletes the lot.
