And you won't like me when I'm angry. Oh ho ho, no.

Comrade Snoota obviously shouldn't have said:

Well.. his finger wasnt crooked.

Azakias stopped staring at Deedlit long enough to write:

Now before you jump on me for doing exactly that, I'm not saying I'm better than Parce. I'm saying I don't like this situation, his treatment of people. That it's my personal belief that this is wrong, and he needs to stop doing it. That's not saying better or worse, simply this is how I view things. You all could differ, and that's fine, but I have the right to disagree as much as you do with me.

Look at what happens when I'm not here. I'm going back to my game of Total Annihilation.
Renaming Pee-Wees to Lyinars and Krogoths to Parcelans is funny.

Well, let me put it this way: You're just making yourself look like an idiot. You're not only digging a deeper hole, but you're climbing in it, and pulling the walls in on you.
You just look like some self-righteous bitter twit who's just a wee bit full of herself.
For your sake, and everyone else's, just quit while you're ahead.
I know you're not a bad person, I know you're not like this normally.

Lyinar had this to say about Optimus Prime:
No, Parcelan flaming someone "minor" like Freschel is unecessary cruelty. He shouldn't be using his popularity to ground people in the dirt just because he doesn't like what they said. It's a matter of human decency and self-control.If someone has done something to deserve the type of treatment Freschel got, then fine, flame away. If someone has done nothing but misspell something, or not use the same perfect grammar you do, then leave them the hell alone. If you attack them, then it's an attack, and needs to be treated as such.
You just don't get it, do you?
When some idiot who can't sing steps up to the mike at a karaoke bar, and displays his incompetence for everyone, he becomes a laughing stock. Why? Because if you can't sing, you should avoid microphones.
Similarly with grammar.
With few exceptions (ESL being the only one that springs to mind), the author has an obligation not to be a total boob in the medium he chooses to display his funneee. In short, if you can't type, spell, or form coherent sentences, then you've no business trying to tell stories in this medium.
End of story. Not the audiences job to wade through incomprehensible drivel, in vain hope there's a useful idea in there somewhere.
On the other hand, obviously intentional misspellings can be funny. Witness Kagrama. Or Jim Carey's famous "Dane Bramage" skit.
You may not appreciate the humor in the latter situation, and that's okay. But you've no fucking right whatsoever to compare it to the first instance, where sheer inability with the chosen medium is the problem.
Do you go to a concert where the guitarist sucks, but plays a 40-minute solo anyway, and yell at people who boo or walk out--on the grounds that it would be a pretty song if he'd only do it right? 
It's this kind of petty bullshit, this carrying of grudges from thread to thread, this immature assumption that you're the one arbiter of Truth, Justice, and the American Way that harms this community more than any of the normative behaviors you claim to despise.
Guess what? This kind of thing happens in every group. There are norms. Group members enforce those norms. If you don't conform, you don't get accepted.
Deal.

This is exactly the sort of thing I mean. Ownage, getting the better of someone, being higher than they are.
I'm not trying to be higher than anyone. I'm expressing my opinion of something I see as wrong. Agree, or don't, I really don't care. I'm not going to be quiet about something that bothers me just because you don't agree.
Lyinar Ka`Bael, Piney Fresh Druidess - Luclin
If you don't like something, then comment, but do it *constructively*. There is no reason to be an ass, except to make yourself feel better.
And for the record, Sage, I don't like people that boo singers or concerts or whatnot, either. I'd like to see them get up there and try that.

It's only ownage when someone acting stupid is defeated in flame combat very thoroughly.
Being a sniveling little 'fuckchop' (first time I've used that word, ) and flaming someone isn't ownage.
What Bloodsage just did could qualify as 'ownage.'
Either way, you're still funny.

Lyinar stopped staring at Deedlit long enough to write:
What kind of penile brain do you have if you can't even spell zone right? Why the hell do you think anyone should take you seriously or find you funny when you can't use a damned spellchecker?It's not as funny when it comes back on you, is it?
Very constructive, Lyinar. So very very constructive.

Lyinar attempted to be funny by writing:

His point is that they shouldn't get up there and try that when they lack the skills.

(I give this thread a 5!)
In honor of the origional post, I too give it a 5.
You say how awful it is to be an ass, Lyinar, then you act like a Flaming Prick from Hell. Very nice.
We're all wowed by your selfless war against all things hypocritical.
If you bothered to practice the first thing you preach, you might have a point. But you don't.
You crossed the line when you decided to make this a vendetta. You made your point in the earlier thread. Creating false comparisons in order to flame someone, however, is just immature.
While you may appreciate sucky musicians just as much as good ones, most people agree that performers have an obligation to be proficient at their art. Parcelan didn't get his reputation because he sucks telling stories, Nem-x didn't get his because he can't hit the broad side of a barn at ten paces, and I didn't get mine because I'm incoherent and timid.
I may occasionally be wrong, but that's an entirely different matter.
I, too, thought Parce's reaction was a bit strong. But that incident is over.
All we're left with is you being Crusader Without a Cause. Except James Dean was cool.
You're undercutting any capacity you have for affecting positive change, simply because you seem unable to resist the juvenile temptation to beat a dead horse. How is that a good thing?
If you want to be effective, then take on each incidence of bad behavior individually. If others agree with your stand, things will eventually change.
If not, you'll have to suck it up.
But this just erodes your credibility to no good end. Your choice, but you're hardly winning friends and influencing people. A few lurkers may agree with you, but who really cares?
