First of all, he admitted no such thing. He admitted he skimmed the thread, under the assumption that you were referring to something he missed that would have clarified the actual purpose. But we both know you were only referring to your own pedantic interpretation of the thread title, and there was not actually any critical information that BG missed.
Second, you have once again avoided giving a direct answer. I'm still waiting.
Sorry, I realised I said something wrong in my post regarding BG's admissions and edited it.
I haven't avoided a direct answer... I asked why I needed to give an answer.
But since you won't be happy until I give you an answer, here it goes:
Pedantic interpretation of the thread title? <--- It's not a pedantic interpretation at all... It's the literal interpretation...
I always misrepresent myself in text format. help me understand what I do wrong?
This thread was created by Somfoolishfoole to seek help in understanding why he is misrepresented. He even opens with this line:

I always misrepresent myself in a text format. it seems like 80% of the online text-text conversations I have with people, ends in them left feeling jaded towards me. I don't quite understand what I'm doing wrong? Am i too straitforward? too honest?
In no way does he ever suggest that he's going to apply any of the advice given to change/improve his persona. - this is the
assumption that I'm referring to.
I have highlighted the assumption in BG's thread:

This idiotic thread is still going on. Has he shown any sign of improvement or learning? Is anything to be gained from providing reinforcement? It's called "help me understand what I do wrong" but he's not taking any help. Is it because he's misrepresenting himself or is it because he loves to bask in the attention (cough*, worship)?
This is why I responded with:
You're falling for the bait. ^^
Also it's says help me
understand, not help me
change

No I didn't. I interpreted it to mean tongue-in-cheek. Read my post again.
Now who's being pedantic?

Anyway, the fact-of-the-matter is that you have interpreted that winking emoticon to mean something
more than I did. I was not being tongue-in-cheek about it, so your interpretation is inaccurate. Perhaps I was flirting/politely informing/literally winking as I typed it...
On that note, I'd be interested to hear what you
know my baiting comment was about. It's quite abstract, but seeing that you
know my intentions down to a "T", you should be able to answer it pretty quickly. No?
