The Glade 4.0

And now you take me for a fool. Naw.......no condescension at ALL from you, Khross.

Is Sam taking over as Board Troll for Lex? I didn't get the memo.

Meh, it's not the size of the brain that matters; it's how you use it.

Now just calm down, everyone. Think about what Jesus would do here.

Fashion a whip out of cords, and use it to drive the Hobby Lobby people from the church?

ROFL. Nothing else need be said.....

- Nope (Lenas)

Yeah I enjoy a hobby you don't. Of course I would expect someone with an IQ in the 70's to think this is important.

Master Elmo, you're clipping your lightsaber in the wrong place. It doesn't attach to that particular appendage.

Use the farce, Luke!

Why do you say this when the ruling does nothing of the sort? What "powers" does this ruling confer on corporations?

Be specific.

It was an ambiguous statement made in jest. Besides, my IQ is only 70.......at least Lukelmo told me so. Maybe "power" = the farce. I'm not sure.........

Neither did you need to comment in the first place.



Just like he gave you the response you deserved.



No. If you choose to post in here, you're subject to responses from everyone else, just like everyone else here is. I take exception to some things Khross does, and as such I don't respond to questions from him. He, in turn, takes exception to that, and responds (or not) in a way he feels is appropriate.

This isn't a forum for you to make whatever inane comments you like and have them immune to criticism because you might get your feelings hurt. Learn to make a reasoned argument.

Furthermore, despite disagreeing with Elmo on.. well, practically everything, I must say he (nor for that matter Lex, nor Monty, nor Bery) ever resorted to the tactic of claiming people had small dicks because they were arguing with you.. nor taking an RL photo and imagining that somehow one's like for cosplay was somehow relevant to a topic in here.

This is not unlike your past tactics of claiming people are "getting defensive", a favorite of high school and college kids losing an argument in social studies class. This is not unlike dragging things off onto making fun of RL pictures or thinking people must have small dicks because they're arguing with you. You were/are a medical person of some sort; maybe you could show us where the relevance between arguing with you and penis size is to be found in medical literature?

No? I didn't think so. All three of these tactics are those used by adolescents - which is unsurprising, since that's the level comments like "Yay, more power for corporations!" is at. Try improving your critical thinking skills to be comparable with your age.

I get it. My comment was ambiguous and didn't offer serious discussion. I gave Khross a hard shot, for what I felt was his thumbing his nose, lecture at that post. Perhaps it was too mean a response, and for that I apologize. But don't act like you guys didn't come in and start piling on. Your first comment wasn't that bad, but it was snarky. I asked why you would even bother, given the likely outcome.

Then came Elmo, who did fire an insult at me. I gave him one back. He gave me two more. I posted his picture. He gave me another. I made a snarky remark back.

And in this recent post, you have most definitely taken shots at me with the hint that I am worse than the worst posters of this site's history. Then comparing me to a high school adolescent. Telling me to improve my thinking skills to be comparable with my age. I mean, those are definitely meant as insults, right? Even though I haven't insulted you personally in this thread, have I?

Hey, it's no problem. I personally have tried to leave you fellows alone, as it really doesn't do much other than create these type of situations. But if you respond to me, insult me, talk down to me......then yeah, I'll be nasty back. Again, if that's the likely outcome of you corresponding with me, then why not just leave it be? Is me posting a short, vague comment like that really worth the lecture and insults?

I will however apologize to Rori. I do owe him one for interrupting his thread with meaningless drama. Sorry Rori. I sucked on that end........I'll let you have your thread back, and move along. I think I explained myself enough, and can't think of anything constructive that will come from further comments.

Because that's what we do here. That's the outcome of a great many threads over the years here; why would this one be different?



All Elmo did was point out (albeit rudely, but again that's basically what goes on in this forum) that you failed to inform yourself in regard to the actual facts of the decisions. While insulting in tone, it was still relevant to the matter at hand. People's penis sizes or their cosplay habits aren't even remotely relevant; failure to inform oneself and using poor reasoning skills is.



Obviously they're rude, but they aren't just pointless insults. I'm pointing out that you are going off-topic into pointless screaming of the type that I expect to hear from adolescents. If that's insulting then.. start acquainting yourself with the facts, and stop posting ridiculous one-liners that are obviously a product of nothing other than your own cynicism. There's no privilege here to have your comments left alone.



I don't "leave it be" because the whole point in coming to this forum is to engage the other participants in discussion. In your case, the use of the term "discussion" is pretty generous. I don't know how anyone could have responded to you in a way that wouldn't be condescending, since it's necessary to point out that you don't have a clue about the facts of the case before ANY discussion is possible. Is that just too much **** trouble for you? Then maybe you shouldn't form an opinion on the matter at all.

As for leaving it be, if I wanted to leave it be, I would have. This is a leisure activity for me. Obviously it's worth it, or I just wouldn't do it. When it's no longer worth it, because it's taking too much time from EVE or TESO or something, I'll let it go.

In fact, I find it kind of amusing, since your responses are not unlike an EVE player that pokes their nose into null security space, then wonders why they got blown up because they were "only flying a frigate". Because that's what null security space is there for, and because I want to blow up internet spaceships. This forum is essentially the Glade's nullsec. I'd love for it to return to a moderated status, but I doubt that's going to happen so I use the forum in the state it exists.

Sam:

Your statement was neither vague nor ambiguous; it was a forceful declarative framed by what I assume was intended to be sarcasm and an expletive.
