Who'd of thunk you guys would take Waiz for your patron saint and aspire so hard to be like him?

Pretty sad, but if that's all you can aspire to I guess you have to stay within your limits.

You're right, you're the only intelligent one here out of all of us.

I'm glad you've got the wherewithal and constitution to stick around and set us straight.

As for the other, it's you who are deciding that you know what's best for everyone else in terms of your juvenile attempts to liven things up by trolling. You're just the bratty little kid who can't handle the adults being quiet and so throws a fit or does something else disruptive just to get attention.

Are you really so stupid you think the only way to be entertaining is by trolling and breaking the rules?

EDIT: Dur, the above is direct and Mr. Gimmick account, of course. HURRRR

That's about the dumbest thing you've said in a year or so.

Is it honestly your contention that anyone who doesn't agree with trolling in a manner specifically forbidden by the rules should leave rather than expect the mods to do their jobs? I always knew you lacked a spine, but this is pretty ridiculous.

And if you don't like the way the community is heading, there's nothing stopping you from, oh, I don't know, not looking at EverCrest ever again.

Plenty of other forum communities that'll enjoy your circle-jerk-a-riffic "I'm always right" attitude. Here it's grown rather tiresome, if you ask me.

All I'm saying is, if you are a cut above, you don't have to stay. Don't like where the community is headed? FQLLFM

Nobody's making you stay. You have been voicing a lot of concern about it lately. You don't have to stick around to do anything about it. We won't take any offense if you and your big brain head off to a more deserving internet message board.

You don't have to flame half of the board on your way out, either. What was that about Waisz, the patron saint?

Wait. What?

Essentially you are telling him to leave because he doesn't "appreciate" the recent pranks on these forums. Because his sense of humor doesn't match up to your own, and because he believes that those who break the rules of these forums should still be punished as they would have been once upon a time, you are telling him to leave.

And I'm retarded? Besides your moronic prank, what else have you contributed to this community that's actually slightly useful?

From the book of Karnaj, chapter 3, verse 16:
So let me ask something, Mr. Gimmick, because I don't want to jump to conclusions if I can avoid it. Is the motivation behind this just to piss people off? Or is there an inside joke to be played solely for the amusement of certain parties? I speak, of course, in the vaguest terms not to sound aloof or faggoty beyond my normal capacity, but because I don't pretend to be privy to any so-called behind the scenes information.

---

This is neither an inside joke, nor was there any sort of harm intended. In fact, except for Bloodsage's crying, no one seems to be "pissed off".

As for the PM stint, I apologize if it went over the line, but I think most/all of its recipients realized it was not at all serious.

Everybody LOVES meaningless spamming from clone posters!

It's not trolling, it's new content!! BECAUSE WE SAID SO!

Someone PM'd me and said they loved it and I'm sure all the people who were irritated by it would have said something and besides who would be irritated by brainless spam posts from a gimmick account? I mean HELLO comedy gold here!

Maradon! fucked around with this message on 10-14-2006 at 03:12 AM.

Initially I was a little annoyed. Had a whole sixty seconds of irritation, where I was going to alert the mods, change my sigpic and sigline to differentiate, yadda yadda yadda. But then I started snickering. I work in a lab, and a couple of guys and I take turns trying to startle one another. Sneaking up on the other guy when they're unsuspecting and making a loud noise. You never do it when they're handling dangerous chemicals or anything, but hurting the other guy isn't the point. Breaking up the monotony of the day is the point. I've been "got" by the guys as much as I've "got" them. Everyone has a good laugh, including the person who was startled. It's no fun unless everyone gets a good chuckle.

Generally speaking, there's a reason for the duplicate account rule. Unchecked, it can cause problems. But Parce let on early that when it wasn't funny anymore, he'd axe the dupes. That in turn preserved the humor in the dupes' antics for a bit longer; you always have more fun when you know there's an out. And when the joke was over, I asked for the curtain to be dropped and it was.

All in all, negatives aside, it was more funny than negative. But it's the sort of joke that could get overplayed. And the PM's were a bit much. A few strategically placed? Maybe. But everyone? Nah. It's cool though. A small price to pay to shake things up a bit. Break the monotony.

There's obviously no real danger here, but it's the same kind of moronic thinking. People too fucking stupid to think of anything else to do for entertainment don't deserve the time of day. Vandalism isn't funny, and that's all this was.

Was it a violation of the rules? Yes. Technically it was. And by the standard that all rulebreakers should be punished, they should have been. No one is arguing that the rules weren't broken and that the accounts shouldn't have been deleted.

On the other hand, was there any especially heinous or egregious damage done? I'm sure if Azakias or Monica or Lyinar had hit the mod alert button or whatever, and really complained, the accounts would've been banned before I had a chance to say anything. Lyinar was annoyed by it, and Monica and Azakias were (to paraphrase) kind of a "wtf!?" mindset. I wouldn't say it was particularly vile. A misdemeanor for libel isn't the same as a felony assault. And that's the closest comparison I can think of here. The dupes were at worst a nuisance. Someone made a good point to me about the whole matter regarding how far things could go before serious harm was done. So long as it was in a gentle "roast" sort of thing (like celebrity roasts, where everyone has a shot at the roastee, everyone has a good chuckle, and no harm is done) it's not that big a deal. When it ventures out of the realm of good-natured fun, then you have to call it off. It ventured out of the realm, and it came to the end everyone knew it would.

But I certainly don't feel the need to hunt down the individuals behind the dupes and tell them off. I don't think they should be banned or blacklisted or whatever either. What would be the point? Visceral satisfaction? The punishment should fit the act it was meant to dissuade. No serious damage was done this time.

This was NOT an ad hominem attack. This was NOT a cruel or mean-spirited attempt to hurt someone's feelings. It was silly.

As for the first part, it applies to your silliness in the lab. Take it from somebody who works a dangerous job, and who knows too many people who've died due to exactly the same kind of stupidity you describe: the idea that you can relax safety just enough to have fun but not so far that things become dangerous is stupid, and will eventually catch up to you or someone you know. Your call.

At the end of the day, I've got zero tolerance and even less sympathy for anyone so stupid the best way they can think of to ease boredom is to fuck with other people in clear violation of the rules. Delid's Kikkake account, or whatever it was called, was much funnier, and it was slapped down as soon as it was discovered as a gimmick; why should this particular stupidity be exempt?

Internet Troll Response #46: You're dumb and should kill yourself.

That’s probably true, I don't know him that well all I ever heard was this nice job he currently has. Maybe in the past he was stationed in some less exotic location like the Philippines or turkey. I Don’t normally associate Air Force officers who are non pilots with danger I’m sure if BS there wanted to educate me on all the Mission critical and dangerous things he has done during his long military career I’d be impressed. Somehow I got in my head he was a logistics person which is very important but the only danger he might face with it was a paper cut.

He has said quite a few times that he was a B-52 pilot, I think flying a large airplane twice his age carrying nuclear fucking weapons counts as a dangerous job.
