I come before you again.
I come before you again not to incite you to war against EAS, for on that matter the Mods have spoken. Instead, I come to speak of the malaise that has befallen this board, which I had hoped a mighty war would dispell.
Can any deny it? I ask you, who now are our enemies? The demented DarkStar has been vanquished and banished. He now sits alone on his own website, blathering insanely on the supposed cruelties of our Lord Wong from behind the Wall of Ignorance that has become his prison. The vocal idiot minority known as the Spacebattles Babies are but a memory, having long since been tracked down and crushed by our Lord in a series of one-on-one combats. The resurgence of TOWNMNBS was but a fraud, and it is well near impossible to find a single informed Trekkie who denies the superiority of the Empire.
So with that I ask you, what now do we do? Victory is defeat when battle is your goal.

If Religion and Politics were characters on a soap opera, Religion would be the one that goes insane with jealousy over Politics' intimate relationship with Reality, and secretly murder Politics in the night, skin the corpse, and run around its apartment wearing the skin like a cape shouting "My votes now! All votes for me! Wheeee!" -- Lagmonster

Re: I come before you again.
You're a wierd little kid, you know that?
This isn't a bunch of guys playing at being a nation-state. I can't understand the misplaced nationalism of some of the bucks of message boards, who prefer the follow the solid regulars of the board and urge them on to battle, so they can sit in the wake of victory and talk about how good it is to be on the winning team.
Honestly, don't bother with this crusade nonsense. If you're that bored, go post something in OT about sex or politics. No one needs a fight.

Seriously, why would be engage in a thing like this? By invading their board (which is closed), we wouldn't be any better than they are, and THEN they would have REALLY to complain about!
We're happy as it is (not much, but hey), llet's not mess things up even worse, ok?

[weirdo]Darth Gnome, I have a correction: avoiding trolls is NOT easy. First they seem like a tempting thing for target-practice, but when you get close, it's a singularity of utter stupidity that sucks you in. Then you constantly fight them, but they are just fed. And then they are overwhelmed by sheer logic, and retreat into cyberspace, spawning bastard websites that grow MORE trolls that mighrate here. Repeat as neccesary.[weirdo]Darth Garden Gnome wrote:Yeah lets all go grab a ba'leth and charge into glorious battle....
OR better, lets stay here and do things that don't require that much effort...like typing...and ignoring idiot trolls....and that whole bit....

I can actually see what they're doing. It is fun to see someone get crushed in debate, but I would just take the person on myself, rather than goading someone else into doing it. If you are actually pissed off about what happened, then challenge someone who you think is responsible. This goes for people on both sides of the dispute in question.

Prawn, you're starting to sound a little too hostile. IOW, an irritatingly pro-SW version of Shep (although I'll admit I don't know Shep's personal position on this particular issue). Shut-up before I have to smack you.
