Fresnel Hydra Alpharius Quote: Quote: You and everyone else as in you and two other people. Whats annoying is when you get attacked for having an opinion about something. Now thats very very annoying. If you want to bring some neutral arbiters in here, I'm pretty sure the condescending tone will be as obvious to them as it is to the rest of us in here. It's not your opinion at all, it's how you present it. It's the difference between "Hello sir, and how are you this fine evening?" and "Hey a*****e, what the ******** is your problem?" Same message, different delivery, FAR different elicited reaction. Or perhaps not since there its just you and your friends vs. me. My very very first statement was not angry at all. Nothing bad. And you can feel free to prove us wrong with a neutral third party if you wish. I never said 'angry'. I said 'condescending.' The 'hey a*****e...' was simply a demonstration of how word choice affects the message conveyed.
Since when was I friends with you and Wing? Sure we have our degrees of mutual respect but that's about it last I checked confused
You are right that the tone has been condescending, that's probably why Wing wanted the subject be dropped for now.
But seriously lets get the subject back on track. |

Wow, really? I always kinda thought of you as a "friend". confused
Anyway, I wanted to drop the off-topic s**t, so we can get back on topic, because I'm tired of the bickering like children, about s**t that really only had VERY LOOSE ties to the subject. What was a "Pot ftw?" debate, became a "Cars are/aren't necessary" debate, among other points that, if we wish to continue arguing, we can make a thread for them.
Basically, I'm a mod, and I need to take the role seriously, and crack down on useless bickering. |

black_wing_angel magmayoshi Fresnel This is getting a little hugbox-y for me now. xd Do I sense jealousy? Of the box I mean, it does have stickers all over it and is a fort! The box doesn't have many hugs though, it does have a wicked armoury but you wouldn't be interested in our world conquering agenda, it doesn't have stickers. WE'RE TAKING OVER THE WORLD! I'm taking Asia!
Damn, well I'm Supreme Overlord and I get Godzilla since he migrates. That's right I get the one responsible for periodically making your economy hilarious.
I'm going to let all the current leaders settle their differences by beating each other senseless. And then tell everyone that they are a bunch of silly bastards for fighting outside of this comedy previously. Then I'd fire them all.
We must eventually create zombies to control the population and to have the most epic live video game ever. |
