OK.


Its like every topic you go to, the first page is a good conversation and you go "im going to reply" But you then read the 2nd and 3rd pages and its all spam. Even if you do reply, unless the next poster actually cares, your reply is lost in the spam..

Being a mod, I would take out the spam but recently I've been too busy to delete a hole lot of shit that will be back again tomorrow.


So yeah. I hardly even look in OT, ill occasionly look in sports and music and movies. The only forum i actuall plan on posting in is the Ogame forum, but even there, where there is no spam, the 4 people who post in there dont post everyday.



So yeah, I get bored.

That's sad since you're such an important character. Also, if you want to join in the RPG that would be awesome.

Ok, someone has deleted my post, I'm not gonna let Jack call me a dumbshit though. Again, try to understand the post instead of making yourself look like a dumbshit. (I'm gonna repost this as many times as needed)

If you ever do have the time, here would be a great place to start. There isn't much rush with that topic either, 'cause I will only bother to continue it when I have time, or if you decide to join...

Brilliant, oh you are ever so clever... I mean as many times as needed? So even if I do prove myself you're just going to keep saying that and saying it until finally I, or we get so fed up without that you "win", when in reality you're just being a ignoramus?

Anyways, there is a general truth. Complaining about the bad things just urges people to talk about it which is worse than just shutting up.



Seriously though, would you then like to explain how this would work? How would talking about bad things, which would allow you to fix them, be worse then just sticking your head in the sand and ignoring it?

Think about global warming, it's a bad thing, and complaining about it would urge people to talk about it, sure there would be arguments and disagreements, but at least that way the problem could be fixed.
But oh yeah, actually talking about it and fixing the problem is so much worse then ignoring it, pretending it isn't happening, and soon in a couple of generations' time the world is already starting to resemble "Dune" and is only getting worse... <_<

Of course then there are always people who take global warming to the point of extremis; riding the bandwagon just to appear righteous and conciderate.
"Caring" about the state of the planet when in actual fact they are lashing out for a completely diffirent reason.

Then again perhaps I am over-analysing.

Jack, I think Chicken Commander means he will repeat that post as many times as he has to in order to stop it being deleted.

"It really is amazing; she killed Kelan Wealer, not that I am complaining, but then the order welcomed her as their new leader. It makes one wonder if I were to ram a blade down her throat, would the monks then follow my commands?" - Mordain Thaendil.

Yeah, probably, I didn't realize his last one was though.

About global warming, all we need is NOT complaints, but instead some normal discussion (which doesn't include complaints). But that will come too late... because it isn't the complaints which fix the problem. See?
And as for me being "a ignoramus", I flame almost everyone who flames me. Especially the likes of you.

Complaining about it would get normal discussion to come up about it though, which would allow the problem to be solved. While you're saying that to just shut up and not say anything is much better then saying something, and getting the attention the problem needs.

And yes, discussions on global warming does include a huge amount of complaining, since a complaint is an expression of ones dissatisfaction about something, and so people complain about things like all of the polution and whatnot.

We are like Rome and the spammers are like the Barbarians...

As I said - we are like Rome.

Our time of extraordinary glory and honour is over! Out once enormous territory has been reduced to little more than a single country. Our frontiers have been overrun, our moral crushed.

Do we fail?

Yes we do!

But do we fail now?

No!

If we can keep having isolated pockets of activity - of coordinated, useful activity - then we will prevail. Yes - we lost Britannia - which is overrun with savage spammers. The Spambarian tribes of the north has pushed us back to the Rhine.
The great Hannispam has stroken fear within our hearts, but as long as centurions such as Lachlan, praetorians like Andrew and leaders like Ariakas prevail, then so shall our crumbling Empire.

We will fight to the end - and if we leave this empire, because of the spammers - then we will hand them their victory!

No, brothers and sisters! Stay and fight with me - under common banner, under common name - under the same brotherhood will we fight - to the last drop of blood - wether it is theirs or ours!

For Honour and Glory, my brothers and sisters - for Honour and Glory!




(I hope you got the symbolic message, everyone! And i must say that some of our coolest debates/discussions have been about the site itself - discussions like this one, so...nothing wrong with it really!)

I get the symbolism. Yeah, you're saying all the British members are spammers. Only joking. :lol:

Very nicely put though, very nice.

Maybe we can turn it around and say that all spammers are british :P

(which is not true btw :P )

But otherwise - I recall that all of our coolest discussions have been about TWC itself, so I am enjoying this topic myself - no need to whine about it - heh
