That’s quite alright. I’ve written amply about the topic of creativity in this thread in order to delineate it from “creative” meaning “something that creates”. If you don’t know what “genuine” means my Webster’s definition isn’t going to help anything. I’m not keen to have a debate over adjectives when I’ve more than explained my stance. I never claimed to be introducing some new term of art. If that somehow means I’m bluffing, so be it.
I viewed the curt demand I provide a definition as rude and a cheap tactic intended to disrupt a discussion. And the ensuing discussion with that particular person did nothing to convince me otherwise. Fortunately, I don’t owe them a reply and you don’t have to believe me. It’s all good.
I do want to talk to your customer service. I do not want to talk to the bunch of untrained, low-paid sales drones you force to screw your customers over, that you call "customer support".
