Video game buying.Here is an example and latest.When I went to Ebgames in my town,I was looking for .hack//outbreak.It had it before when I was looking for .hack//mutation(but they didn't have mutation).So i got mutation over the internet.
When I went in Ebgames,guess what.
They had mutation
No outbreak

People calling me in the important parts of Games for example I was playing .hack//infection adn I was called downstais to do somthing (near the end of an area too 5 floors all but oine fight comleated) and when I came back my brother had shut the game offhttp://www.rpgamers.info/images/smilies/mad2.gif...

let's see:
1. Liberals and do-gooders. These people say that they are righteous and good, I think they are stupid and evil. They suggest no death penalty and always push for "more humane ways" of punishing criminals. This leads to a high rate of crime. IN britain 1950 the crime rate was 20,000 cases a year, now thanks to YOU LIBERAL ARSEHOLES OUT THERE its 800,000 a year (as of 2004) WELDONE. Worst of all the silly idiots find it impossible to accept that they are the soul reason for the boom in crime. Let me spell out the equation fat heads
Mindless criminal + Soft punishment = no deterrent + higher crime + miserable and angry people.
THIS IS NOT ROCKET SCIENCE
2. People that disagree with alot of my so called opinions. Some of them I believe to be fact not opinion but I am kinda living with the fact that I am not god
3. A follow on to number 2...I am pissed off that I am not a supreme being (I don't really wanna be THE god...I would not be able to cope). If i were I guarentee you this world would be better, I have fantasies about zapping all serious criminals. Also you know them people that walk past you and say something intimidating for no apparent reason....well they are dropped from a 30 foot height
4. Islam. An awful religion that the liberal media brainwashes us into accepting. It breeds chaos, restriction on freedom and abolishes rights - also believes it should be the head of every country. Britain will wake up to it more as time goes on, where I live we have already woken up to it.
5. Yobs who are so unintelligent its unbelievable. Speaking like this: "innit, want a punch, yer torkin ta me"
6. Unintelligent and illogical people. Some people for instance that love britney spears music but call game music "sad"

You got isues my friend... Y'see not every thing you think is the common intrest. People like you (No offense) piss me off because of the lack of respect towards other peoples opinions. Yes I hate Brittany Spears as much as the next person I nkow but if someone dosen't like VGM who cares it's a matter of taste not skill. I know that it does not take much to make Pop music but so what?
And for your insult to govorment. Those people were just like you. Who's to say you would tdo a better job? There are people I nkow who have been corrupt by power. people who promis change but never give it. What would you do and would you really do it?
And I can eaisaly see why people disagree with your opnions becasue they have the cllosed mende feel to them with little though or regard towards others. You seem not to understand but to destroy, and that you are always right
What would you doif you were the 'supreme being" what would that accomplish? the fact that alll you want is power seems toshow why you do not have it.
And what do you have agains Islam really? They are indeed a great nation. I may not agree with everything they do but what can I really do? Complaing to us isn't really gonna help you nor do we really care if you hate them. That's not the piont of this thread. It's to say the LITTLE annoying things in life. Not the hugely pickings at things just cuz you don't agree with it.
And really what's wrong with a bit of slang? Just cuz you don't like it dosn't mean its' bad Ilike slang myself and use it often in my speach. Plus l33 t is the coolest online speak I've ever hard of. So eally what's with your annoying and stupid beef with eerything? Being pissed off about it won't help and making a big deel over it makes it worse. Pesonal ythe things that make me mad really I can look back and laugh at. ^o^

Blade you need to read my post again and come back when you understand it
I was NOT saying I wanted power. I want to sort the mess that people like you make with your unbelievable naivety.
I was NOT saying i dislike people who speak like "innit" they do annoy anyway, I was saying I dislike YOBS
I aint getting into the Isla thing again but if you think they are a wondrerful religion, well I have nothing more to add on this ISLAM IS NOT A NATION either and it is NOT A RACE. A race is like jews etc. Christian and Islam are RELIGIONS. That is classic liberal brainwashing from TV blade I see it allll the time my friend
Once again NO it is NOT a matter of taste. To dislike VGM and to love Britney is a classic contradiction on an opinion/fact level (I dispair I really do). It annoys me that this can happen but those who do love Britney music are usually of lower level existence and or intelligence.
So you know why I don't have power Blade, could you tell everyone how to become God then?
ALSO it DOES take alot to make GOOD pop music, ABBA are great
And it is natural for somebody who is arrogant and right to annoy people. That is why I like Bush, in any cases he has it spot on (others he is not). If I were in power as government people like you would just be ignored. No higher level constructive argument at all, just naivety, brainwashed, same old rubbish. ordinary human. There are some "insults" for you blade.
No offense taken either, and my dislike for certain opinions ties right in with my "wrong/bad opinion" argument. My lack of respect for opinions is only absurd opinions like the Britney one
Now don't get angry Blade that is also a basic human emotion that I practice as my country is torn apart by liberals and Islam.
I have issues? Explain if you lived here and with my life you wouldn't please? I know what is right for this world. It is someone like me and I have absoloutely no intention of being modest.#
No I am not always right, that would be a foolish thing to suggest. But I a more right than you on that last passage. Tell me when your ideals have caught up to mine. I am waiting. (please don't start any flame war, i want only constructive answers)
Finally this is a thread for things that piss us off. I have added you to to my original list

hehe Dan hit that right on the head there, good post. If I was a person with power I would certainly change things and try to make things better some of my views are right-winged and it is these right-winged views that will actually change something in our society. Liberals give yobs a slap on the wrist and say don't do it again, but the point is they will do it again. Society and the hierarchy of our society need to be more rigid so that the good people on this earth have a better way of life and that the bad eggs get dealt with properly.

daniel, I have nothing against you, but I just wanted to add my opinion/thoughts of what I have quoted here.
I aint getting into the Isla thing again but if you think they are a wondrerful religion, well I have nothing more to add on this ISLAM IS NOT A NATION either and it is NOT A RACE. A race is like jews etc. Christian and Islam are RELIGIONS. That is classic liberal brainwashing from TV blade I see it allll the time my friend You're right, in a sense. Islam is a religion, akin to Christianity, Buddism, ect. Race is not like Jews though. Judism/Jews are another religion. Race simply means the area of where you were born, like if one were born in Japan, their "race" would be of the Japanese. As for preferences on Islam, everyone has their beliefs, and insulting or being derogatory towards another because of what he believes in just makes you even worse. And I don't see how liberal brainwashing makes people believe that a religion is a physical country. o.O;
Once again NO it is NOT a matter of taste. To dislike VGM and to love Britney is a classic contradiction on an opinion/fact level (I dispair I really do). It annoys me that this can happen but those who do love Britney music are usually of lower level existence and or intelligence. Liking or disliking things isn't a fact, it's all about people's opinion. Yes, there are people who like video game music and not pop music. And there are people who like pop music and not video game music. But to say it's not a matter of taste is asinine. It's entirely about taste, about preference, about one's personal liking to the music or not. Yes, people who are fanboys and lovers of Britney Spears may be of a "lower level existance", but in their eyes, the video game music lovers can be part of that same level.
And on a side note: I may dislike Britney Spears in her entirety, but I find "Toxic" to be an alright song.
No offense taken either, and my dislike for certain opinions ties right in with my "wrong/bad opinion" argument. My lack of respect for opinions is only absurd opinions like the Britney one Even though you think the opinions are absurd, you've got to realize that there will always be people who like what another don't and vice versa. As long as you realize and live with the fact, as well as really not caring about it, everyone is basically fine. o_o At least that's how I see it.
I have issues? Explain if you lived here and with my life you wouldn't please? I know what is right for this world. No one, and I mean, NO ONE knows what is right for this world. Because there will ALWAYS be different opinions, different ideals and different thoughts. Example? Adolf Hitler. He thought he knew what was right for the world, or at least Europe. Others didn't.

Thank you for devaluing my 140 IQ and University of Michigan bachelor's in both English and History. Apparently, since I can appreciate the music of Britney Spears et al., and enjoy it for what it is, and not take it so seriously, I am now a miscreant and dolt. I must certainly be a lower form a life.
But really, I must thank you for showing me my purpose in life and what I truly am. All based on my musical tastes, you are amazing! I cannot understand how you have not gained a prominent position in some corporation or are not the thinktank of many world leaders.
Since you have figured it all out for me, I will now return my degree, quit my job, and apply to shovel horse crap at the local farm, since I am sure that is all I am capable of doing. I must also be in love with my sister, have no teeth, and have no idea on how to care for myself. Please show me how to live me life, PLEASE!

you like britney music....I need not say anymore. what really rattles you bjp is that you find it hard to argue properly with most of my arguments and resort to silly posts.
IQ is not a good measure of intelligence or naivety either (just puzzle solving and logic)...and your liking of britney has more than sealed that:) Thanks
also you misread what I wrote didn't you? Your 140 IQ missed what I said:
I said are USUALLY a lower form of life and OR unintelligent. Key word "Usually"
"i want only constructive answers" - so what did you go and do bjp?
I will also add that usually people in/have been university have a massive naivety compared to people froma working class or rogue background. Its a different type of naivety. KInda like the one you have bjp on one of our other arguments that I will not mention
---------------By Gray Fox
"Society and the hierarchy of our society need to be more rigid so that the good people on this earth have a better way of life and that the bad eggs get dealt with properly."
-----------
Unfortunately with the naive, brainwashed and liberal people in the universities (of course that had the money to go there and so all came from easy lifes and nice backgrounds on AVERAGE) that ultimately become politicians etc....there is little hope of this.
Luckily with enough of these clones knocking about after a while the general public gets fed up or is forced to vote for someone with a more direct approach i.e. bush whether the liberals like it or not! :):):)

i have many conservative friends that went to the same university. if my education is devalued by your standards, then their is also. so, in turn, if my point of view is discredited, then so is thiers. so liberal and convservative viewpoints are invalid. or is there a double standard for them?

However you certainly suffer from naivety and bad taste:) All hail me
There is no need for me to substantiate, that would take me a long time and many facts and "opinions". I have not the time so for now you will just have to trust that I am right
The biggest way to see it is here in britain where nearly all politicians are accused (rightly so) of not living in the real world. They certainly are not looking at the crime rate here compared to 1950
bjp4444
03-24-2005, 02:30 PM
However, you still lack to back up your arguments with fact. Once you do that, I'll perhaps try to have more "constructive" argument, as you would like.
I certainly just brought up a situation that you quoted in regards to university study, yet you totally disregard it. is that because you have no answer? if so, then how can i debate with you one-sided?

I added to my last post aswell. The only way I could proove to you that my polices work is putting them into practice, i.e the death penalty. This rubbish you say about not adding a constructive argument because of blah blah is just a bad excuse for having none.

i appreciate the hand, daniel, but you need to learn how to just not dismiss others opinions. it will get you nowhere in life, other than in the angry thoughts of others.
i did have some death penalty statistics that show that US states with the penalty have higher murder rates than those without it, but i'm sure you'll just disregard this also, as it does not agree with your way of thinking.

03-24-2005, 03:03 PM
I certainly will, it is a fact that our crime rate has gone up considerably since death penalty and corporal punishment was abolished and I will nearly always express my opinions forceibly I will usually never be restricted because of other peoples angry, sadness , frustration etc....(in some cases perhaps).
I can guarentee you bjp that the lack of punishment here and I really do mean punishment, is the number 1 reason for crime. I will simply not accept any other opinion on this very real fact
The US is different to the UK and the death sentance there is a joke anyway (death row is silly), my death sentance revolves around dna evidence (which will rarely go wrong and if it does so be it the reduction in crime is worth it) and also means that execution take place as soon as possible within 24 hours. NO appeal allowed after verdict with DNA.
Death for:
Paedophiles,
rapists

Oh and life means never get out of jail if u get it
Corporal for thugs etc...I also would station 10000 troops in afghanistan to stamp out and destroy the poppy fields and drug market (contributes 90% to the world drug supply)
My way is mean and clean and it works. Places were this treatment (as well as torture that I do not condone in most cases) it has proven a massive success! You won't dare comit a crime in some countries

well, i guess you can speak for your county, and myself for mine. it doens't seem to be working here, that's all i can say. i guess that sorta "pisses me off" (getting back to topic); the fact we have a penalty that has statistics to show is it futile, yet we continue to use it some states.
EDIT
i agree with the fact that life in prison should mean life in prison. for anyone who kills another, i think they should be locked up in a quiet, solitary cell with pictures of their victim(s) all around them to remind them that they have takes away the most important part of society, life.
(perhaps this discussion should be moved to serious topics?)

Every state in the US should be governed by my rule below, or atleast tested. Also guns should be banned and those found in possession 10 years in jail, those who shoot at someone treated as if they killed them....death penalty (in cases where it was in attack, still 10 years for having one for defence).
(nah i bring closure now...this topic has been debated by me in way too many cases in multiple places and i feel too pationately about it lol. You can put it there if you want, i may add to it later)

if anyone is caught committing any crime whatsoever, they should be slowly tortured until they no longer live. and i'm not talking about chinese water torture. their genitals should be run through with hot pokers, and their eyes should be gouged out. under such law, it is flagrantly obvious that crime would instantly cease to be.
anyone who thinks otherwise is a communist.

No, its called ganging up on BJP, and it needs to stop. Why is it everytime a thread is reported to the admins, it contains the same few names? Do you know what pisses me off in my life? People who can't just get along, respect others no matter if they agree with them or not, and just generally help a community strive to be better. It makes me have to come out of my lurking and actually say something, and that is no fun.
Well sadly this comes down to your opinion and my fact, and I am right. That is all you need to know :)
Do I even need to say it?..... No, I don't think I do.

Daniel, you are entitled to your opinion as the others are and as "absurd" you might think they are, you should know that an opinion is no more than an opinion. This isn't a fact or anything.
Or maybe you're telling me you have the absolute truth , in that case, I don't know what you're doing on these boards while you should be making money with that ability.
Anyway, I'm taking sides here with bjp not because I hate the rest of you or whatever reason you ma think, but to me, it looks like this was started by Daniel by bashing an opinion.
Let's try to argue like civilised people. Now, this ends this debate, whomever mentions it again in his post will face consequences.

I thought I had brought closure to all this? I made friends with bjp and did not carry on, I said my piece and that is all I have to say on this:) I disagreed with a lot of his opinions that was all, as well as others. I never or very rarely use nasty insults (and I try my best to keep it on a civil argument) but some people do not understand that conflicting opinions will sound "like a war" there is no other way it will sound.
Argument as I have said before is good in many ways.
"Anyway, I'm taking sides here with bjp not because I hate the rest of you or whatever reason you ma think, but to me, it looks like this was started by Daniel by bashing an opinion."
So mithrandir you should have looked further becasue it was not actually me :)
Also this all started when blade tanaka attacked MY opinion, I do not see him being told off for that but it was his right to attack my opinion and then I attacked his:)
There seems to be a misconception on these boards that any masive conflicting opinion is a bad thing. It's a good job half of ypu are not politicians.
Come on people this has gone way too far :)

03-25-2005, 09:42 AM
first, (though i may be wrong) knowing silver i would guess he wasent serious with that remark, and likewise so was bjp also being less than serious.
secondly as locke pointed out (had you read his post, which it seems you didnt) he is not refering to one specific event, but multiples, as he said he doesnt like to come out of lurking, so it would take, either repeated offences or a rather grevious one to have him come down on you.
finally, and dont feel bad, as many many people make this mistake in many places.
This board is NOT (yes i said NOT) covered in your right to free speech, your PRIVLEGE of sharing your opinions, learning form othres, and being entertained by lively debate, is governed by the rules of this board. if you dont understand why this might be the case, you may benift from reading the topic "free speech vs peace of mind" in the serious discussion section.
I realise that recently i have been making more critical posts, and since im not a mod you may think its not my palce to set you straight, however, youd be wrong. This fourm (and community) is for all of us to enjoy and it is up to all of us to help insure it remains an enjoyable place, this is alot to ask for some, it is in my experence rare for someone (including me, you can tell, i get more snarky than usual) to be able to step back from conflicting opinions, espcialy since in many cases the actions that need correcting cause negitave emotions and reactions.
different people will accomplish this different ways, i notice silver tends to be subtle about it, trying to gently nudge things back to where they should be, bjp seems to like being sarcastic (Which i find really cool, i like the sarcastic/cynical kind of humor so i get a kick out of his posts), however me, im blunt about it, ill come out and tell you lke it is, i will pull few if any punches, that is just the way i am.

bjp seems to like being sarcastic (Which i find really cool, i like the sarcastic/cynical kind of humor so i get a kick out of his posts),
You need to realise then that this causes flame wars. Sarcasm is an awful way to respond to somebodies post and the fact that you geta kick out of it annoys me. You can openly say that without being frowned upon...well thats pretty bad. Cynical and sarcastic posts casue trouble , luckily I think this time I managed to keep my cool and made friends:):)
You see this is back to me vs you again but we have been here before and I have seen the way it goes. If this is true about not having the right to sharing opinions or arguing them dragon then we might as well just sit in the boards like dummies because game music etc is all about opinions and taste (bad opinions and bad taste included)
I refuse to post on this again because its going nowhere *looks at bjp who is running as far away from this topic as possible* lol ;) I think I will join him:)
bjp4444
03-25-2005, 11:40 AM
No, I wasn't running away. I just went to bed and slept in.
Yes, I am sarcastic. That's just the way I am. My post in response to silver(which I also though was a bit sarcastic, I could have guessed wrong) was so, also. Yojimbo, I have no favorites, I agree with what I agree with, no matter who's saying it.
And I don't mind conflicting opinion. It's when the other opinion won't even recoginize that they might even be the slightest bit off or wrong, that's when I get annoyed. I have never claimed once that my thinking is the way to go. I merely start by trying to to show my point of view. If we could get past that point, then perhaps we could have an intelligent discussion about something. But everytime I try to chink away at something, or try to point out a flaw, I get "you are wrong, my way is right", which it turn, of course, causes me to get even MORE sarcastic. Perhaps one needs to notice WHY I'm being sarcastic about something.

And another thing!!!!!........ some of you dont realize but Brittany and Justin were a couple since they met on the mickey mouse club as kids. It was love at first sight. They were virgin lovers. And they wanted to marry.
It was'nt a publicity stunt like others thought.
Justin was so heart broken that he turned to Alyssa Milano and Janet Jackson after the breakup. Who I tellyou,goes to them unless your a suffering mass of heartache. C'mon Alyssa milano,ewwww.
Thats why Janet let Justin expose her boob on that superbowl show. She would'nt let any one else do it.
And we all know what Brittany did after the break up.

If it's just what women reveal inside music videos, then it isn't just Spears that is acting like a total tramp. Watch just about any music video that's been released in the last year or so that's by a female music star, or a rap star that has a lot of women in their videos.
That's something that pisses me off alot: Using sex and sex-like things to advertise and gain popularity, ect.

It would not matter to me if it did not work, but unfortunately it does in todays age especially. I find it astonishing that this government can ask "why have we got so many teenage pregnancies" whilst allowing this stuff (in britain) on early morning kids TV
Its bad and it should be stopped. I still wonder why parents are allowing it to be honest. British people have a syndrome unfortunately to take any shit and do nothing until they have to.

yes, all these daft singers potraying thier body just leads to teenagers dressing like tarts, there was recently a string of rape attacks in my town, and i thought to myself when i saw a teen girl walking towards the woods dressed in barely a skirt and bra "is it any wonder you are being raped you daft, stupid sluts"
i mean what is it all for, she was walking nowhere dressed in nothing, and her face was obviously caked in make-up, they are as daft as 2 short planks and for the way they act around guys, they deserve everything that fire's thier way.
and Sobou, i know it is not just Britney and that is the very thing that i am trying to show, most girls apart from the sensible few are exactly the same, just like dear old Britney.

03-25-2005, 02:56 PM
I totally agree, Yojimbo. It's entiretly the female's fault if she gets raped because she looks like she belongs in an exotic nighclub. They're attracting way too much attention for their own good, and the influences that the media has on them doesn't help at all.

03-25-2005, 03:01 PM
hmm alright a closing point, since it seems i was misundrestood. nothing is stopping anyone from sharing their views and opinions here, nor will anyone be prevented from having a nice rousing debate, my point was, that you cant bitch to a fourm mod about your free speech, you are on a private board, its not government regulated, if you piss of the user base, or the admins, you may be banned, your right to free speech is indeed valid but you must understand that this board is provided by the owner/admin, HE makes the rules, noone else.
while this baord may aid you in excersizing your right to free speech, the use of the baord is a privelige not a right, this small but significan difference escapes alot of people (including me for my frist couple of years online)
to be on topic, again, and (i swear) totaly unrelated (honest) my pet peeve is when people have somethign explained to them in great detail, usualy repeatedly, and frequesnt by many people, btut still seem upable to graps the point of what ever is trying to be communicacted. I am an Admin as well as teh lack leader for a gaming clan, (both game server and forums) and i have to say i see it ALOT more often, soemtimes i seriosuly wonder where some people find the intelligence to get online to plauge us.
Example, the Clan has a minimal age of 16 to join, i posted this is the forst post of our recruiting thread, infact all the info you need to apply is in that first post, (and by teh way about 1 in 5 people read that post) so this noob first posts to the forums, he obviously hasent read it (he admitted to not understanding it since english isnt his first language, so ok cut him some slack) then he gets to hes only 14.a member notices this before i do and he (helpfully apoligizes and informs the kid hes too young to join.
he informs the member that hes sure age isnt an issue, so he repates himself and claism hes going to contact me on MSN, i see the post i reiterate, no you cant join, your too young, yes, your age is the issue. (so hes been told three times now) then the next day he says he got his dad to tell him what the first posts said spceificly, he PM's me on MSN and asks again, over and over! i told him at least 4 times on MSN!
"so im too young" "yes" so i ca i join?" "no" "age is the issue?" "yes"
i mean ok not first language english and only 14, so lously english, but hes forming the questions, and "yes" and "no" are hadly hard words to laern, i mean i can say yes or no in about 5 diffeent languages, err no wait less i forgot how to say it in klingon.
<edit people posted while i ranted>
i would ahve to dissagree, ideal a woman should be able to walk the streets naked and not get rapped, regradless of waht tehy look like getting raped is never teh females fault. a rape is an assult, an agressive act, this requires non-consent (oterwise its just rough sex) jsut becasue our world isnt perfect doesnt mean you should start blaming the worng people, by your logic its a banks fault for getting robbed becaseu it has money, obvously that is incorrect teh guilty party is at fault not the victim.

if she was to walk around with no clothes then clothes would probably not been invented and we would still be like monkeys correct? if that was the case then rape would be legal because we and the women wouldnt know otherwise, but seen as how we have mentally developed to know the actions we are taking women in the present have changed and therefore know they are dressing like tarts and it makes it there own fault. if they were not to wear any make-up etc then they wouldnt be raped 99% of the time, most victims of rape are blond/brunette, sexy girls, and not big fat gingers.
bjp4444
03-25-2005, 03:57 PM
a couple questions/ points of clarification:
one:
if they were not to wear any make-up etc then they wouldnt be raped 99% of the time, most victims of rape are blond/brunette, sexy girls, and not big fat gingers.
please show statistical proof of this. i'm highly doubtful that 99% of women who provactive clothing are rpaed every time they do so.
two:
but seen as how we have mentally developed to know the actions we are taking women in the present have changed and therefore know they are dressing like tarts and it makes it there own fault.
is this based on the premise that this is what sexually excites the rapist? if so, let me pose this example. (all this hypothetical)
a: i find slightly overwieght girls who wear glasses and green wool sweaters and blue jeans sexually exciting.
b: i see a slightly overwieght woman wearing glasses and a green wool sweater.
am i allowed to rape her then? i mean she had it coming, it was HER fault, right? How could she dress that way, knowing it would get me off?
please clarify your statement.

_Patterns of Behavior in Adolescent Rape_ by Vinogradov et al. in the
American Journal of Orthopsychiatry 58(2) April 1988 pp 179-87:
71% of the rapists were under the influence of drugs (inc. alcohol).
15% reported taking drugs less than 15 minutes prior to the rape.
21% premeditated the rape.
27% committed the rape while committing another crime.
16% were impulsive/spontaneous, "the victim was simply an easy
available 'innocent bystander'".
7% were committed after an argument with the victim.
6% after sexual foreplay with the victim.
89% of the rapists described the victims as not being provocative,
"The victims did not verbally provoke nor were sexually
attractive to the attacker". i've read just as many stories about people being raped in their houses as in the street. actually, in the united states, 77% percent of rapes are committed by someone who knows the victim (Bureau of Justice Statistics 1997). In those instances, i would guess that they took place in the home, and not in the alley;also, I'd guess they really don't care what their wearing.
Rape is a problem regardless of how someone is dressed. In most cases, the rapist is sick (mentally), adn is going to find what they want. Rape is a crime of violence and power, not sex. If it was all about sexually attraction, then why are young children and old people raped also? (I have talked to people who work at rape counseling centres who can confirm the ages.)
stop calling me a liberal, i am not. and being a conservative will get you as far as being a liberal will.

It is still obvious that to somebody who is not insane a girl who is attractive and deliberately looking like a whore is more likley to be raped.
More likely certainly , gang rapes have happened where teenagers go after girls and touvh them up etc, these ppl are indeed sane but do it for pleasure.
Many different factors here but more likely
Definately

Well it looks like BJP doesn't seem to realise that women who go out 'knowingly' looking tartish are 'more' prone to rape then the every day norm, and this is common sense and not hypothetical. If u would have read through Daniels post properly u should have known this. U are good at changing the words around so that it makes a different side to the argument. For example
Daniels quote:
‘ even though it is obvious if they were not to wear any make-up etc then they wouldn’t be raped 99% of the time, most victims of rape are blond/brunette, sexy girls, and not big fat gingers.
BJP’s reply:
please show statistical proof of this. I’m highly doubtful that 99% of women who provactive clothing are raped every time they do so.
As everyone can see he does not mean 99%, he means the majority of women who provactive clothing are more likely to be raped compared to the social norm. He is just emphasising the fact that the sexual prowess of men, will look towards women who look good and sluttish (I apologise to the liberals for the word ’sluttish’ used)
Because it is clear to me like u BJP and so many men like women with less cloths on because it promotes sex. Check out ur pick on ‘who am eye’ for example
‘Sobou:
http://img51.exs.cx/img51/9650/bjp8do.jpg (http://www.imageshack.us)
Very good! I have put original in colour so all it's glory can be seen:
my lord, what a dreamboat!’
Why would u like this girl BJP? Does she look hot to u, do u think that this particular female is more prone to rape?…I do.
So it looks like that he even knows that Daniel’s opinion is fact and he is arguing for the sake of arguing and that he is hypocritical which I have shown.
And BJP there have been statistical tests to prove this, one that I have used in the past for psychology is the sociobiological theory, which has been statistically proven by using the chi-squared method. But if u don’t take my word for it like I know u won’t then see the works on Dunbar and his studies of this.

I just showed you statics that say that 89% of rapists don't find their victims attractive. how does that translate into "attractive women are more likely to be raped"???? unless rapists don't find what you deem attractive the same.
in regards to grey fox, i chose that picture, becasue yes, i find her attractive. that doesn't mean i'm going to rape her.

In any case I am not arguing this one:)

NO it would NOT becasue the 89% of rapists who do not care about attractiveness will STILL go for the girls who are attractive you see...and the other 11% WILL so the ones that go for either girls will be luck which of the girls get raped (so we can say 50% to each) and the ones that do will go for a fit girl (almost 100% to the ones that look attractive)

they will. they will go for each half and half as they DO NOT care about attractiveness.
Look at my full explanation it is very clear that those who look attarctive are more likely to get raped
The other 11% are biased so WILL go for attractiveness thus
on average the attractive ones will be raped more often.

there's no proof that it is half and half. the statistic i brought up was of conivcted rapists. 89% of them claimed they did not find thier victim attractive. That does not equal 50/50. That equals 89/11. That's a big difference. You just can't postulate your own opinion when the facts claim otherwise.
EDIT
I wouldn't want rape anyone. But of those who have, most (77%)have been someone they know, regardless of how they look. Again, Rape is a crime of power and violence, not sex. Again, if it was all about attractiveness, then why have children and older people been raped?

were they telling the truth if they were insane? How did they know that the girls were attractive or not? maybe all of them appear unattravtive.

You need to realise then that this causes flame wars. Sarcasm is an awful way to respond to somebodies post and the fact that you geta kick out of it annoys me. You can openly say that without being frowned upon...well thats pretty bad. Cynical and sarcastic posts casue trouble , luckily I think this time I managed to keep my cool and made friends:):)
You know, as long as you don't take everything so seriously, its not really a problem. Sarcasm use to be a heavy part of the RPGN community, and it was enjoyed, it certainly did not cause flame wars in the past. I speak from expierence, not just my opinion.
I haven't bothered to read the entire thread yet, I'm just browsing as I don't have time to keep up with these debates, but I just thought I'd point out that its healthy to have a little sarcasm in the discussion.

1) i think women would benefit from not dressing like hoochies.
2) there's a subtle difference between "i'd do her" and "i'd do her whether she likes it or not."

Rape isn't about "WHO U WUD WANT TO DO MORE LOLZ." At ALL.
We obviously don't live in the same world that you do, so why don't you check up on the facts that correlate to this one. By the way, what color is the sky in your world?
BJP has presented solid evidence that rape has nothing to do with the attractiveness of the victim. And yet you still continue to argue based only on personal opinion rather than fact. Your replies imply to me that you yourselves have thought enough about raping attractive women to the point where you formulated an opinion of the truth based solely on that desire.
I weep for the future.

As silver said,
2) there's a subtle difference between "i'd do her" and "i'd do her whether she likes it or not."
You might want to think about that for a while.
What you are saying is "Women who wear provocative clothes get raped more often." Which you have not backed up with any facts whatsoever, claiming only "common sense" as your source.
But, RAPE HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH THE VICTIM'S ATTRACTIVENESS. RAPE IS NOT ABOUT SEX, IT IS AN ACT OF AGGRESSION AND POWER.
Whether this flies in the face of your version of common sense or not is irrelevant. If you want to make an effective argument, you must quote sources based on FACT and not merely your OPINION of the way you think things should be.

This added piece is still wrong. Sae as above.
And state of mind is an illusion. Nobody can define that definately. That again is hard to define. In the end though, a person who knows what he is doing is wrong and does it with his own self in control is "sane" and sadly lots are like that that commit allll kinds of crimes

now, suppose there may be gunmen who shoot people on the street. also, suppose there is a person who likes to wear a shirt with a big, red target painted on it. rational people would obviously have a greater tendency to shoot people with targets painted on their chests than those without targets painted on their chests. so obviously, this person would have a greater chance of being shot than a non-targetshirt person. therefore, it would follow that when people with target shirts get shot, it is their own fault.

No, I do understand. I just blatantly disagree that it is "so logical it requires no backup at all."
It's probably obvious to YOU that you would rather sex up a hottie rather than an ugly.
But you can never make such a sweeping claim that "most rapists raped attractive slutty people", unless you can get into the mind of 100% of rapists and figure out the exact reasons for doing what they did. That conclusion may seem obvious to YOU, but you have no idea if it's the truth or not.
And, as BJP says, "attractiveness"/"sluttiness" is completely subjective.

"Attention" means "attention," not rape. By attention I mean people turn their heads to look, etc.

NO. The targets thing is just silly and is based purely on the notion that the gunner really does go for the target person..which is debatable. a "sane" rapist will certainly for for a "hottie" more on average. PLUS a slut chooses to look like that becasue she is void of shame and or morals...that is why lame lies with her alot more. It lands with the rapist more and even society at large. I forsee the day when this ends in many of our countries (actually totally unrelated I forsee the human race not lasting another 100 years based on logic)

all of your so called logic and opinions are not obvious, the reson they arent is becasue you are INCORRECT!
you have provided no facts, at all, and ignored the facts provided for you.

simply saying im right and your worng, doesnt count, your OPINION, is not a fact, and can not be used to suppourt other so called facts, you are making NO friends here (i dare say firefly hates your guys by now)
someones political leanings have no basis on anything here, and attempting to refute their arguments by bringing it up only makes you look foolish.
the only points in this discussion void of logic are yours, if you continue ot provide no facts while making outragous claims you will continue to be ridicluled, or prehaps outright ignored, your continueing ignorance on some of the most basic facts of forum posting will continue to keep you in low esteem on this baord.

2. once gain provided no facts to back up your own opinions simply stated that they are obviously coerct, and continue to imply the rest of us are stupid for not agreeing with you.
This is not the way you hold a ddebate, this IS a good way however of proving that your opinoins should NEVER be accepted without facts to back them up, since after eight pages, one can only assume your thought process is flawed.
you are clrealy proficent in the use of the english language so aside from my previous opinion i am at a loss to explain your inability to grasp the single most important factor in a debate. The need for facts.

Disagree. Debate does not need facts always just common sense.
I could get you the "facts" on rape and proove that those who are slutty are more prone to rape but of course it would be statistical (if a study has even been done.). However I would, in the end, nethertheless be prooved correct. I just cannot be bothered.
Oh and I did not call you stupid, I said and demonstrated a lack of logic. 1+1=5 is a demonstration of that NOT an implication of stupidity. Noone on this website is stupid from what I have seen. The rocket was too.

you claim to be using commen sense, however it should be appearent the responces you have gotten that that is not the case, if you wish your views to beceome common sense the nyou must CONVINCE us you are correct, insulting us will not accomplish that, you will need FACTS to change someones OPINOIN.
without facts, any radical claim you make is only an opinion, and your unwillingness to suppourt your own opinions with anything but a simple reiterations of "im right your not" and personal attacks on others only makes your opinion look foolish.

Also like I said, my argumnet on this is so obvious it requires 0 facts. On other things I would of course do so but on this...nope.
I may actually seems how the positions of some on here are so illiogically annoying.
If you look through my full arguent you will see that I have been very consistent. Firefly had to fly off because he couldn't stand the heat (pun intended). If he hates me well thats bad becasue all I have demonstrated is my reason, logic, common sense and arrogance coupled with a determination to show you facts are not always needed.
And if the facts on this do exist they will support me.
PREPARE FOR STATISTICS. You annoyed me so much I am now searching for some good old stats. They will not agree with you lot though, especially not the firefly thing that nearly all rapists are not in control etc.....thats illogical too considering these stats etc that quite clearly state how many there are.....must be alot of insane people out there??
I think not! No... I know not
Well no study on whether sluts are ore likely to get raped but will check again sometime.

That though is pretty clear evidence that most of these guys are actually sane as me or you as they are your partner most of the time.
Didn't one of you say that with a mind of a rapist it would be impossible for that person to date a girl...or something similar?
I know not.
And also lets not forget that those girls dating arseholes who will one day rape them are probably the type of person that opens her legs to anyone. Yes thats a very sane assumption, once again based on my own view from where I live. Nearly Every slag I know (and many of them I see alll day in my town and local street) are cooked up with real derranged guys, all of thuggish type.
WHEREAS
Most girls I know and see that look non slutty are with someone who looks smart and decent.
I bet you disagree on this too don't you but I bet you facts are out there if you look further than them poxy statistics you provided earlier:)

.A "sane" rapist is purely out for lust or sex, and so what a girl wears is a UCH LARGER factor
not true most rapists are out for power they want to domonate women and rapeing them is a way for them to feel power over them, same with most cases of beastialty they want to have power over things. and money pisses me off the most. i am not geting into the whole daniels an opinated person or not with a ego the size of a cargo ship, cause in the end he has a right to his say and so do we

Well actually I said sane rapist but power does come into it. Perhaps I am wrong here but fact still remains sluts will be more at risk and its usually their partners that do it. And as said it is most likely the sluts that will be with the derranged /thuggish type of guy

<edit>
You imply that sane can be sane and commit crimes like rape, thats debateable, however, regardles of what you THINK or BELEIVE its a FACT that rape is not about sex in the vast majority of cases, it is as druad says (dammit im agreeing with him again!) a power issue, its about having control over your victim.

but, there is quite a nuber of people that believe for a girl to play along and show no objection to the rapist they are safer as like draud said alot base it on power. I do not know how true this is.

meh iam just trying to see it with fresh eyes now i also have to say that more then a few rapists go for preppy or well dressed women because they want to break them and make them feel powerless, that is also a driving force for some of them esp if they have been snubbed by women all there life some times the cloth don't matter. well while ithink the blame should fall on the rapist if she was walking down the street naked or nearly so i think being raped is a lesson on to its self one that the person in qestion needed to learn

I agree. But she cannot complain either since she may have contributed. And I certainly believe she was more at risk as I have kinda been arguing for 3 hours or more
Now proove e right on something else, instead of arguing click those rep buttons and send pleas to locke cole to come and get me for my opinion like before (well dunno who but some ppl do it)
and they certainly did...2 of them, 1 saying "You asked for it"...that person did not understand that I was actually showing them that I was gonna be prooved right...and they did not realise I do not want repping for opinion. But whoever you are I do not care because you know you are illogical and wrong.

and i still cant believe we are still talking bout rape.
well i am totally sided with daniel on this debate, guys take a bloody look around you tell me one fat slob that is prone to be raped in comparison to a sexy looking teenager??? the sexy one will be raped mosty probably and thats the fact here, although i very much doubt that you imbosiles will agree, because you always trying top twist things. i dont know how many times i will have to say this question until one of you acknowledges it and answers it but here ill write it again.
WHO WOULD YOU RATHER RAPE IF YOU WERE TO DO SO, A FAT GREASY GINGER SLOB, OR A SEXY BLONDE TEENEAGER????
please answer my question sombody, PLEASE dont ignore it for a 4th time because it is very ignorant of you if you do so.
WHO WOULD YOU RATHER RAPE IF YOU WERE TO DO SO, A FAT GREASY GINGER SLOB, OR A SEXY BLONDE TEENEAGER????
The correct answer is, neither. If the answer you are looking for is "A SEXY BLONDE TEENAGER", I have one thing to say. Some men like bigger women.
If I was a moderator, I would lock this topic right away. I would also ban couple of people in the process.
As I said ealier in this thread, the thing that pisses me off the most in life are arrogant and ignorant people. That sentiment has grown ten sizes while reading this thread.

and i also believe you have wrote that to give locke the incentive to carry out your requests, and i hope that is not the case because if we are banned that is not warrented and is totally unfair.

I actually did answer this awhile ago, answering the same as Kilu. Although I would guess, when it came to the mind of a rapist, it would be the victim he was most likely to succeed with. Since attractiveness does not matter to 89% of rapists, I'm sure they are looking for a more convenient target. I'd guess they are looking for a girl who is devoid of self-confidence, one that will put up the least amount of fight.
Also, daniel, you stats did nothing to prove your hypothesis that "girls who are dressed more sluttily are more likely to be raped". They did show that most rapes occur by someone who knows the victim. Is it your theory, then, that they wait until the victim is dressed sluttily? That the rape only occurs after the victim puts on slutty clothing? I'm confused how your stats prove your point (I'm not saying they can't, I just don't see how).
Well, I'm off to take a shower and such. Y'all have fun now you hear!

i think i can shead some more light on this, danny is saying that a girl who is dressed slutty is more likely to be raped i will prove so useing simple math but please remember that it is simple math and thus can be picked apart ok here is goes a girl dressed like a whore will be more likely to be asked what her serveces cost then a girl dressed up like a buissness woman, ON AVERAGE most guy will execpt that she the girl has said no and will move on how ever a small percentil will also be ofended and thus try to force what they want on to her = girls that dress like sluts or whores have a much greater chance or being raped ON THE STREET then girls that are dressed more conserviivly, this math only works for the streeet and your stats show most are not but that does not changet this fact. now this math does not work for rape cases that have people that know the victom involved because its likely they don't care wht the victem is wearing .....i hope that i was clear as mud

Actually, I asked for those who are up for forum moderator positions to express to me how they would react to this topic, as I have been sitting back and watching people dig themselves deeper holes.
Did you know this was a little girls nice little thread until you people started this whole rotten debate? This topic isn't even suitable for Marona to continue posting in, and I am ashamed at how many times I have seen users attack each others opinions. You can express your own opinions without bashing the other side of the argument.
I have already been addressed to this thread with upset emails from users who browse these forums (registered or not), and this topic is now in the spotlight. Some of our male and female browsers are outraged by some of the stupid things that have been said, and for good reason.
As I said, I have been sitting back and waiting to see who is going to redeem themselves, everyone had 9 full pages to chill out, lots of time to show their true colours. Now I must make choices to protect this community from further falling deeper. http://www.rpgamers.info/images/smilies/shame.gif

I have agreed with you Lord Draud more than anyone else except Yojimbo and Grey fox, so you did something right.
Being outraged is quite natural, it does not mean an opinion should just be thrown away. The "female" thread readers can be outraged, I have been called in the past
Bigoted
racist
Sexist
Arrogant
Nazi
Crazy
and many other things the nazi one completely wrong
As for the others I live with simply becasue you cannot be any of the above when stating facts. People think it is sexist to state that men on average are more intelligent than women when the statistics and history are quite clearly that men invented nearly everything known to man on average.
Also People think that women are "every bit as strong as men" when the facts are completely the reverse.
People say "women are just as good at sport as men" when the facts in the olympics etc show that men are certainly physically superior.
You see, this cannot be sexist. Sexism is where you are prejudice against a sex because purely they are that sex. NOT where you choose to say something or not choose someone due to ability of prooven averages.
I am afraid you will disagree with the above statement but this time I have statistics, history and God almighty to back me up.
Blame him if you cannot agree with what I just said:)

The problem is more how people post their opinion. If you post something I disagree with, I can counterpost my opinion without the need to say yours is wrong, without the need to attack your side of the view. Two opinions can be posted seperately without the need for an all out your wrong/i'm right type of situation. Everyone has an opinion, and none of them are totally right.

There may be reasons for this, did you ever consider the factors? How many females were given a chance to try to invent things? They were not even given the liberty of education originally, which does not make them stupider, just sadly abused by those who decided they could try to mold the race. If I was a female and saw this kind of discussion, I think I wouldn't even bother to respond. Did you know atleast one of the users who have posted in this thread are indeed female? You assumed otherwise...

I agree but on average men are greater writers (women also apparently deliberately use male names so that they may get published more). This is not sexism..its just what we were made like, I would say the same thing if I weer female. I don't like the way it is I think/know it is an unfair world.
Also women are not as nasty, smarmy, arrogant, egotistical or war-drawn like men. Men are naturally more aggressive and provide us with all the awful weaponry (through more intelligence however) that we kill each other with.
So in that respect I would agree women are better people.
I see this both ways you know. The world would be a much more loving place with women in charge.
But it would also be a more dull and less creative place

Your whole statement of men being superior to women is based on a scientific point of view. How else would you define superiority?
Fact is, men and women are different. In general they shine in different kind of things and situations. If you're telling me that women are generally weaker than men physically, then you'd be right. But there's so many more things to take into the equation to be able to say that men are better than women as a whole.
Where would mankind be without women? Where would mankind be without men? Nowhere. They depend on eachother, and complement eachother. There isn't a better of the two, because there's no way to compare them.

I agree mostly, but in most things men outshine women this is just fact. We are not equal. . But the stats/facts/histrory certainly show men as a whole are "better" in the majority of things. I do not find it fair you understand. I actually like women more in certain ways to men, i am merely stating a "bigoted" fact. and it certainly is a fact for those of you who want to argue this time.....sigh

These WOMEN are the masters of their craft, infact anne is generaly considered to be one of the most amazing authors of fantasy, past or present.
oh by the way, weve seen your OPINION may times, but you have yet to provide any facts for us.
Dragonknight the facts are there for everyone to see. The Y chromosome, go check the net. The fact that most men are best sellers on average. The fact that polls and stats show that men do better in higher jobs, the fact that most scientists were men like einstein. The fact that nearly all sports records are held by men....I could go on and on but your mind is closed to the blatant and nasty truth.
Best darts player: a man Phil taylor
Best archer: a man
Best snooker player: a man ronnie o sullivan
Best master chefs: men
Best writers: men (stephen king is probably the geatest in his field and JRR tolkien made the greatest book of all time)
Most Inventors: men
Most Scientists: men
Most murderers/rapists and sub humans: men
Jesus: a man
I could go on.....but its futile you just cannot accept it

And my mom is the only one in our family with a Masters. Out of a family of 8 im the only one without a degree.

actauly YES it is up to you, the amount of people telling you your a freaking nutjob should be evidence enough that most donot agree with your position or that any of your claimed "facts" are such. as the person with the radical point of view it is YOUR responsibility to suppourt your own facts and opinion to change our minds
my desire to see some facts is far from silly, the basis of a debate is a collection of facts and how they are interperted.
You hold a raical stance, i am simply requwesting you back it up, i am not flaming you about it, and it seems tahts teh responce you expected, now that you have been pressed for facts to suppourt your claim without any flaming it seems you are unable or unwilling to do so.
do your opinions mean that little to you? or is your goal simply to cause trouble and you were never interested in haveing a debate at all?

Just because something seems logic to you, doesn't mean it is logic to someone else too.
You're the one stating something as a fact, so you're the one that has to be able to back it up too. That's pure simple logic, and sane. You say it's on the net, can you show us where?

There may be reasons for this, did you ever consider the factors? How many females were given a chance to try to invent things? They were not even given the liberty of education originally, which does not make them stupider, just sadly abused by those who decided they could try to mold the race. If I was a female and saw this kind of discussion, I think I wouldn't even bother to respond. Did you know atleast one of the users who have posted in this thread are indeed female? You assumed otherwise...
This is continuing to grow out of hand, when I asked for it to end.
This is the only argument that is ever brought up which aims to disproove the theory that women are just as smart as men. It was so obviously going to be brought up that I actually told Yojimbo it would, it got brought up by draud too
It fails.
And the other things like sports records CANNOT be dispelled this way I afraid
also, yojimbo, however much his last post was over the top and ill judged (in a way) was just his opinion, and he was stressed, I cannot blame him. But banning him was pretty harsh.

03-26-2005, 06:13 PM
well i havnt been on this site since my high school days now, and also for the last few months i have been living abroad, i have taken lots of my time up reading the points on this hot thread, and i must agree with both sides of the argument, valid statements were made by both parties.
i am slightly towards TDK and Locke Cole's and bjp's way of thinking, but i also think along with daniel that banning yojimbo was very harsh, he was just getting a little too much into the discussion and from what i have read it looks like he is passionate on these last couple of topics, a shame he seems to have a few good points of view and i would like a discussion some time with him, well looks like ill never get the chance now, anyways.

03-26-2005, 06:24 PM
hehe things are getting hot in the kitchen well I would have to agree with Daniel and Yojimbo on this subject that 'men are more superior to females'. You just have to look what 'man kind' did for this planet (in terms of progression). I am not being one sided here at all I am mealy pointing out the truth, and I am surprised that 'u need facts', it is common sense, like the rape debate. (BUT BJP seems to think that 89% of rapists DON'T look for attractiveness in their bit of hanky-panky) anyway... Who fought in both WW and who still dominantly fights in wars is it again....Men, most inventions created have been created by men, not women but Dragon prob wants facts, and I can supply these quite easily. The Hierarchy in this Earth is 1MALE---2FEMALE end of discussion.
And I believe that Yojimbo has been restricted to use this site, this is disgraceful after reading his posts I believe that he made valid arguments, that well contributed to the discussion of this debate. But why can't Locke restrict access to Lord Draud, he has expressed his views openly just like Yojimbo, but some being far more aggressive. He has 'been warned time and time again', but on this account almost immediately Yojimbo has been restricted access. Please tell me why.

Because I'm the moderator, and you're not. Lord Draud is nowhere near as bad in the problems that lead to Yojimbo's ban, the fact that you support his every post leads you to defend him, and I expected that, but if you don't like how these forums are moderated, don't use them.

I will respond the same way I did when you decided to PM me that...
I expected you to come in his defense, as you have an ip that matches his. Thus, his actions may lead to you being banned as well. I told them to cool it, and he pushed on, well past my tollerable levels. If he is to be unbanned, it certainly will not be because you decided to lecture me on my forum moderator abilities.
I've had enough of being taken as a joke, people assuming posting here is a right, not a privilage, and plain out not respecting each other. The whole "my opinion is right, I dont care what you think" attitude is sickening, and I have sat back and ignored it long enough.
You posting on these forums is indeed a privilage you currently enjoy, but we shall see for how long. These forums are for people to have fun, and your comment in the PM about how this site is only great due to these debates is total bs, our site has never had these sort of issues, and its been great long before. We can have fun without the need to be serious and discuss how sucky this world is.

03-26-2005, 07:01 PM
Well I would say that I have tried in the past to elaborate ut where it is totally obvious or where I have said go find the facts for yourself thats just tough I meant that to dragonknight.
He is no innocent in this, he just argues for the sake of it if you ask me, and so do some of the others but this debate was Ok ...didn';t seem that bad until the tempertature raised but i certainly kept MY cool alot better than I once could. (and lets not forget I was called a nutjob)
Anyway I will abide by your rules and not bring up good discussion. I will be just a puppet. I can see your point of view but I do not agree with it all.
I also agree that these arguments make it interesting if you are not so overly sensative and can argue proper (which soem here fail to do miserably) but I also agree that this is supposed to be a fun place.
Sadly some people have took it kinda badly, repping , whinging, being "outraged" etc....well they are the bigoted ones in my opinion.
Still like I say, I agree to your rules. And I also agree that game music discussion/downlaods made this website great. However alternate viewpoints are good, but not when a gang of members takes it upon itself to just defend each other to the hill.
I have said my piece, its all there in writing for people to judge but now I bring closure to this and go back to ordinary game discussion. I may add to other peoples discussions though in the future
Jupeter
03-26-2005, 07:03 PM

Jupeter is either actually Yojimbo, or is allowing him to use his account, and thus is banned. This is from a private message, and I quote:
....and therefore people will be forced into stopping writing in a frenzy, i didnt suspect you would unban me and well i think that sucks,...

I don't see where you guys see the "opression" you so call. I don't feel opressed or nothing on these boards. You have your opinion but the only problem is the way you present your opinion as being the good one and the only one acceptable. You can expose your opinion but don't go telling you have the truth, you don't know if it's the absolute truth, unless you are God which I don't think you are. An opinion stays an opinion.
As for Jupeter, I find it weird that the Yahoo IM account of Yojimbo is "jupeter9198"...and that you have the same IP....kind of a weird coincidence don't you think?
Anyway, I have to go with Locke's decision on this one, you had your chances to abide by the rules of these boards and you didn't.

you on the other hand daniel, are ignorant, have ignored the rules of a fourm many times, resort to personaly attacking anyone who desnt agree with you and consistently refuse to make ANY positive contribution., i would reccomed YOU be banned, you are not a benifit to this community.
grey fox. quit while your ahead, your not currently a big issue yet, if you want to stick your name right up next to dan and yojimbo, you could be, so far your biggest offence (in my opinion) has been your quadruple post. but your quickly catching up.
incidently since none seems to be able to clue in as to how many people your pissing off, LOOK AT YOUR FEEDBACK. you have all lost reputation in the coruse of this thread, i have gone up, with comments such as good job, or "you made my point for me" there may not be many people posting in here but its clear that most of the members agree with the positions put forth by pjb and my self.
locke said "becasue im the moderator and your not" AND THATS AS FAR AS IT GOES!
there is no room for debate there, no argument, you cant win this, yojimbo is gone, and if you want to insult the admin about it you're likely to join him shortly!

No, if you read the PM quoted to you properly, I stated that yojimbo was used as an example, since people did not take my warnings seriously. Yes, it could have been you, but I did say that you have been given a second light, and are currently not banned, right? If I wanted you gone, trust me, you would be. Yojimbo left me no further choice, and might I add I bring this topic to light in our chatroom, and many of our posters agree my choice was valid, and did the justice required.
