But first I want to clear some things up. 1rst, PE1 and I are, in fact, not the same person, however I will deny that he is on my AIM buddy list. IF I was actually actually, that IP ban would have gotten me too. He was some dude who left a long time ago, but I still talked to every now and then. He had his own little grudge and delt with it in his own way. 2nd, when I said that I was just a long time observer, I was lying(duh). I am a current member(1 who's opinion no one cares about). 3rd, the being hostile statements were to get people's attention, however, some of you are in fact extremely stupid and should consider removing yourself the genepool. Now to the point: I didn't really think that it needed to be explained that we need more creativity, more quality silly antic topics, and better RPs. But apparently I was mistaken. It really doesn't take much to improve things. Pretty much I'm saying you should stop creating low thought, low quality topics that suck and only make posts that you actually use your brain to make. However, it seems like no one wants to do that, so I've pretty much wasted my time on this dying site.

Yes, we shall ignore your futile attempts at that, to create your "decent" RP, so au revior, mon ami... Really, is should be mon bete camel. I need to get those stupid accent marks in place...

You, sirs Mercenary, need a moment with yourself, or possibly even with some menthristy prisoners. Stop acting like a child, and instead give Drakey and the mods suggestions what could be done better.

Ok, merc, im gonna say this once and only once: Shut The **** Up! All you do is b1tch, b1tch, whine and b1tch. You want your good RP(whatever it is:P), silly topics ect? MAKE THEM! Why do you argue with the fans of this board? Why dont you go and aruge with some cops, that the whole police sucks ass, cause they dont shoot criminals on sight and have lots of car chases. Sure, its fun, but thats not the point in policework. And the point of this board is not silly topics and rp, its for help and discussion of spiderweb software games. The general board ect is just a by-product. Dont like it, LEAVE! Please go play jackass and do "The Shotgun Trick". Im begging you. sorry about the grammar, my english kinda sucks.

Yes. The reason we don't wish to do these things is because Mercenary is an annoying little prick that we have to Waste Our Time to get rid of. Time Wasted that could be done Answering Your Wish if you would have used Enough "Brains" and Left.

There are far too many topics of complaints, angry responses, responses to the responses, whining, moaning, and groaning. Most of them are redundant. I'd like to avoid cluttering the board any more, so further topics that don't add anything distinctly new will be locked. If you have something to say, say it in the current topics. There are more than enough of them. —Alorael, who brings you this notice here because he really didn't want to create yet another topic to complain even more on.

M6mmi, Zxquez, and everyone else. This is your last warning.

Ahem. If you really want to persist in feeding this troll by answering with flames, even at the risk of getting yourself banned rather than the troll, then I must say you have to be pretty... well... intellectually challenged. Sorry. He's the one trolling. Why make it easier by responding with flames? We already know what kind of a — he is, and he himself won't acknowledge it, so the only consquence of calling him names is to get banned eventually. Not worth it. -------------------- "And all should cry, Beware, Beware! His Flashing eyes, his Floating hair!" S. T.

After much (arguably) deep thought, I've come to the conclusion that the point Merc is trying to make is valid. His method of trying to get it across managed to alienate more people than not, but if you think about it the flame war started when PE1 made his stupid post. Merc supported PE1 to an extent, which has made him lose credibility but does not IMO invalidate his point. Yes, we do need some amusing topics and half-decent RPs. (Well, maybe need is too strong a word, but it would be nice.) Unfortunately, these things don't just appear because we want them to. The up-side is that they can appear. We could have funny topics and really good RPs (the former more easily than the latter, I suspect) if people were willing to put a bit of effort in. These boards are a community in most meanings of the word. However, in any normal community, people don't just sit around chatting all day, people get out and do stuff. This one could benefit from the same. Thank you. -E- -------------------- Let them eat cake! Polaris Boards: The System is Up. Perennially. Posts: 2314 | Registered: Tuesday, January 15 2002 08:00 |

I wonder what's sadder; the way Mercenary acted, the way everyone responded, or the fact that so many people wasted their time on this. However, I do concede that a few of us should put more thought into what we post. But that doesn't mean we have to, so neh. Posts: 1918 | Registered: Sunday, October 13 2002 07:00 |

quote:If you really have to get peoples' attention by hostile statements, that usually confirms that you have nothing important to say. If your opinions are worthwhile, then you wouldn't need to shout, rant, and lie. If you repeat yourself too many times, nobody takes you seriously. If you have to restate what you said over, and over, and over, then it means nobody cares and you should drop it. Although Drakefyre is interested in what you have to say, I am not if you have to make your point by yelling. I apologize for what I said, but you never lie or yell at people you are trying to convince. Hammurabi's law pertains true to the world and how every species thinks, "An eye for an eye, and a tooth for a tooth." When you insult someone they will insult you back, with an even more devistating remark. So insulting people will get you nowhere. Especially if you insult over 3000 people . -------------------- "Wow, fish." Hahahaha, I crack myself up. Posts: 1233 | Registered: Wednesday, October 3 2001 07:00 |

I suggest we lock this topic as well. All this stuff has already been discussed and re-discussed, and there is really no more to be said. We all need to move on. And if this plea does not succeed in its objective, I may just start an image spam war with Alec and get it locked that way. EDIT: That last bit is meant in jest.

It isn't ver likely that you would care what I say no matter how I say it. But it's worth a shot anyway. What are forum sites? They are places where people go to entertain themselves, communate in slightly meaningful ways with others in a nonrealtime environment, and display wit and sometimes stupidity. The reason I'm here is because of the excess of stupidity and lack of wit, which has concequently lead to lack of entertainment. I ask that we actually try to use our brains when we post or all will be reduced to nothing more than endless stupidity and extremely lame topics. However, despite already saying this, none of you can get it through your thick heads that if none of you put any effort into anything you do on Spiderweb there won't be a point to being on Spiderweb. -------------------- I pledge a grievance to the flag of the plighted stakes of America, and to the republics upon which it stands, one nation, playing God, blind and visible, with the illusion of liberty and justice for all Posts: 35 | Registered: Monday, November 3 2003 08:00 |

Hey, Merc? The advent of the English language has just begun, and your ability to communicate in a medium like this would be nice. Please READ before you WRITE, thanks! ^_^ (Honestly. The next time you post the same damned thing and blatantly ignore your own advice by wasting everyone's time typing this crap, I don't think you'll get nearly as patient of a response.) -------------------- We're all amazed but not amused By all the things that you said you'd do.
