Originally posted by Legion Okay, fair enough. My definition of flaming is a bit broad. Point being is that at the thread http://board.acmlm.org/thread.php?id=2443, Kario presented his week as having both negatives and positives, and nowhere did he claim to be upset and whine and yet you get responses of the sort: Toxic: Watch out General Hospital, cause here comes Kario: Tourtured Soul Valcion: DUDE I HAVE STEVEN SPIELBERG ON THE PHONE AND HE WANTS TO MAKE A MOVIE OUT OF YOUR LIFE KARIO! DONT LEAVE Captions from Cymoro's Pics: Boo Fucking Hoo, Guess What No One Gives a Shit! If I got that response from people I'd be mighty pissed off. So what do you think of that? |

| Well, I think you're the one that's having a fit now, whether you realize it or not. | |||

| The worlds not perfect. You're not going to change it. Yes Virginia, bad things DO happen. This is not fucking mechanation of war, or a force of nature, some act of God. This is an internet message board, where someone is supposedly in control... We are not talking about changing the world - I know you just itch to come up with angry, hyperbole-ridden responses but c'mon, you're not fooling me. Fucking deal! It's not even that big of an issue either. That's what gets me the most. If it's not that big a deal then why did Yiffy Kitten create this thread? And again, if it's not that big of an issue, why are you posting here? If I see something I could give two shits about I ignore it, and it works just fine for me. :p Anyways I've said my piece. I don't think Kario's going to get unbanned, I just thought I'd state my opinion on the matter. |

| Yeah, they are in control. That's why he was banned. Next! Taken literally, this could be made to justify the holocaust: "The Nazis were in control. That's why the Jews were murdered, because the Nazis in control make all the right decisions right?." The only one who's fooling you is yourself please, I speak my mind after careful thought and consideration. Hyperbole is an effective tool of persuasion, don't play dumb. Next! as you say. READ THE THREAD! I've read this whole damn thread. The fact is that you failed to engage the question earlier as well. You're using that as an excuse to not engage me in argument. (AKA a rhetorical manuever called evasion.) Shame. Try intelligent argumentation rather than looking for ways to make me look stupid (ineffectual though they may be). I know you're a cool guy but cut the crap. (anticipated response, but OMG you're only making yourself look stupid! ...bah) Yiffy Kitten: (first post) "I'm actually letting this up to you guys, the mass, the posters of the board - i'll let you be democratic!", "we don't want a totalitarian board here, freedom of speech is allowed" If Yiffy Kitten didn't think this was an important issue he wouldn't have posted a thread about it. You can bleat all day long about how you think it's not a big issue but like you said yourself, people have already made it a big issue. You're only reinforcing my point by coming here. It's the equivalent of going to an anime board and saying "anime sucks it's so pointless, let's talk about how pointless it is." You read "Should Kario be Banned?" and thought, "Well I'll just go tell everyone what a nonissue it is." If that were the case, you'd be wasting everyone's time. The premise of your reactive "fit" is that "we can't change the world" or some shit. Notice that Yiffy Kitten wanted this to be a democratic discussion. If you don't want us to be democratic/progressive, don't waste thread space. However, if your viewpoint is that the ban was justified (as it obviously is, don't beat around the bush) just say so, and why. What you are essentially saying is a vote "No" in the poll, and telling everyone to shut up. You call that democratic? Don't get me wrong, I'm not some idealist. I've had my share of political bullshit fall upon me and I've heaped it upon others. But what you are doing is unproductive, Legion. Why would you want to ignore something you care about? Makes no sense but whatever. Okay, there is something out there called context dependent discourse analysis, usually required for phrases where the opposite of the literal meaning is intented. For example, "I could care less" == "I couldn't care less." in some contexts. In fact, my native intuition favors the former option. And in the context of my original phrase, would you honestly say aloud "I couldn't give two shits."? probably not. |

| *smacks you all* edit: If you think the nazi comment was ridiculous, insert any other political entity and any bad decision it's made. I was using hyperbole, just like you. You can't cry no fair for me using your stuff can you? I even quoted it for you for christ's sake. The decision may not be democratic, but Yiffy Kitten said that this discussion's thread is intended to be. If you want to harass me about the difference between reality and computer text, save the effort: I'm well aware of it. But don't forget that by your own resignedness you're contributing to the undemocratic nature. "grow up" your rhetorical skills could use some growing up.

Am I wrong to assume that banned users shouldn't be able to post?  ? |

| Look, quit putting words in my mouth. I never said the board is a democracy. I was simply point out that Cyamoro's notion of democracy was wrong. Whether or not he was being sarcastic in his post I don't know. | |||

| Maybe this thread would benefit from some descriptions of what Kario did in the past to get banned. The last ban was for "questionable attitudes," as I recall. What were the other bans for? | |||

| I did some perseonal research on this when I had lots of free time in my first year of college. I found that the ideal sleep:awake ratio is 7:12 hours. I did this during finals week, when my schedule was more or less free of things to do. I actually was sleeping 7 hours and doing stuff for 12 hours. I found it to be very, very productive. I naturally got sleepy after 12 hours, and naturally woke up (well rested) after 7 hours. Only problem is that in the real world such a shedule is unworkable due to the fact that 7 + 12 = 19 hours, which leaves 5 left over in a day. You will wake up at a different time each sleep period. Extending it to a 24 hour day means a little more than 9 hours of sleep per day. |

| Yeah but who better to get the job done than a prominent black man? You think poor folks have any influence over policy? (In most cases I'd say no.) And it's "reparations", by the way. | |||

| I took a few of them about 3 years ago. Came in really handy because my university gives a lot of credit for them. I was in U.S. History AP but didn't take the AP test. Of the AP tests I actually took: English Composition: 4 or 5, can't remember (no credit) Chemistry: 4 (5 credit hours) Calculus BC: 5 (8 credit hours) French Language: 2 (omg such a miserable test! I tested into 300 level anyways and got credit that way. None from the AP test) |

| I'm listening to a rather catchy song by Judge Dread called "hello baby". Most of his music is rather raunchy (ok really raunchy), but this is a sharp departure. It's fast paced and doesn't feel at all like his usual ska/reggae stylings. | |||

| Heh happy birthday. But watch out once you reach 21 you kind of lose any major milestones to look forward to. (Unless you look forward to being 30, 40, 50, etc.) |

And the thing would just be an emulator basically. It would have been in his best interest just to buy every GBA game on the market worth playing.
