[Discussion] Elfdart

Post by fgalkin »

I have recieved this PM from a member of the board
That because of this thread

Linka

And because of elfdart's long history of strawmanning people like that; what kind of retard calls someone a fucking KKK rank?

That Elfdart's title be changed to:

"Grand Imperial Wizard of SD Net"

If he wants to play the game of "lets toss names and titles around willy nilly" then he deserves to get bit in the ass by it.

EDIT: And if possible, give him a burning cross bonus image; like my mushroom cloud above his avatar.
I must say that I agree with the sentiment. Elfdart constantly uses the most offensive terms possible, while "immitating Republicans," yet I have never seen or heard Republicans either on this board or elsewhere to use them. He's the only one doing it, and he gets away with this all the time,

Have a very nice day.

Let us pause for a moment to wonder who could have possibly sent you a PM wherein a link to a thread is rendered as the word "Linka". Here's a hint: Only one fucking person on the board actually does that, so cheers to preserving his anonymity.

Let us further consider the nature of the offense...
... actually, just explain to me what Elfdart's actual offense was. Am I to understand that you feel Elfdart ought to be punished for calling a public figure rude names? By all means, let us run up the Jolly Roger and start one of these threads for pretty much every discussion in the N&P forum. Find me a rule that Elfdart broke by ham-handedly conflating the ADL and the KKK, because last time I checked, simply offending you and Shep wasn't punishable by anything.

And, yeah, I'm just not seeing the offense here.

So, the worthless, genocide-advocating military-wanking asshole got his panties in a bunch over something Elfdart said? Boo-fucking-hoo. If anything, Elfdart should be given a commendation for that. Shep can sure dish it out, but he whines like a little bitch whenever someone actually gives him and his pet causes a dose of his own medicine.

The thing is that we don't have many of the asshole-breed Republitard drone types here simply because they tend to swiftly get banned for being lying, dishonest fucktards who refuse to follow the rules of evidence required here, but they exist. So I do not see anything wrong with lampooning them at all. If somebody else here identifies enough with said breed of assholes, they should grow a thicker skin or take a long look in the mirror, possibly both.

This is a complete non-topic.

I'm with Edi. Lock this thread, waste of our time.

This is a pot-kettle-black case to me. Find some more egregrious examples and I may devote more than five minutes to this.

I see a few claims in the OP: "elfdart's long history of strawmanning people like that". First, the "anonymous" messager (who happens to say "linka" and has a mushroom cloud image over his av ...) claims that Elfdart is strawmanning someone in the linked thread. Second, he claims that Elfdart has a long history of such strawmen.

I'd like to see evidence for these claims. If it's provided, then I'm all for doing something about Elfdart. If it's not, then why the hell waste time on this? Last I heard, DR6 didn't check at the Senate door.
A Government founded upon justice, and recognizing the equal rights of all men; claiming higher authority for existence, or sanction for its laws, that nature, reason, and the regularly ascertained will of the people; steadily refusing to put its sword and purse in the service of any religious creed or family is a standing offense to most of the Governments of the world, and to some narrow and bigoted people among ourselves.

Shep wanted to get me to post it and my first thought was "Sorry, nuh-uh, not actionable". Come on, Fima. Elfdart is a dishonest fucktard who never concedes an argument no matter how many tens of thousands of pages of evidence you find to prove his own is baseless bullshit, and the board would be a better place without him (the same is true of Shep, of course, which is why Elfdart already has the title he does, which is NOT a compliment). But he didn't really do anything remotely unusual, let alone actionable, in that thread. This thread is, however, a waste of time if there ever was one, and I almost regret even posting in it.

This reminds me of that old Star Trek episode of the two alien guys that hated each other, locked in a race war: "I'm black-white, he's white-black, surely you can see that we're superior..!" "No, white-black is better than black-white...!"

If Elfy is being dishonest and strawmanning, then go after him for it. That's the way it works here.

In Libertarianism, there is no Government, so the Bosses are free to exploit the Workers.
In Communism, there is no Government, so the Workers are free to exploit the Bosses.
So in Libertarianism, man exploits man, but in Communism, its the other way around!

No, I meant the complainant. If Elfy is making a BS argument and strawmanning, and the "complaintant" thinks he has a case against him, then he should prosecute the attack himself instead of asking the Senate to do it. Not that we should title Elfy for strawmanning, etc.

Indeed. He shouldn't run to us just because Elfy is throwing around rude words and giving him the vapours.

Again.. I call for this thread to be locked, as there is no point discussing the matter further. Seconds?
