Guys... you haven't figured out Melissan is VD? I am disappoint.
I dunno, he always struck me as being too serious to engage in such activities. Brute force is his tool of choice, not this dishonorable deception business.

Maybe it's RL Missus VD?

Steve gets a Kidney but I don't even get a tag.
^ agree, according to his dossier (VD.txt), there is less than 2% chance that Melissan is VD. 1% chance that it is DU and 0% chance that it is Serious Business.

Learn to read. First, by rereading actually reading the thread. Second, by reading dextermorgan's much more accurate summary. Third, realize that the first person to actually bring gender into the thread was Mellisan herself. Nothing more needs to be said, really.

Not quite. More like:

  • - Mel divulges an ill-informed opinion and tries to argue said opinion is fact
    - Codex does the usual 'Sup Drog/eat shit n00b routine
    - Mel pulls a gender card hoping for a free pass- Codex is unimpressed and starts gender trolling
    - Mel is shocked that she's not receiving special treatment on account of possessing a vagina and goes ballistic at the one person who was actually trying to engage her in a meaningful conversation
    - People who were previously indifferent come to the conclusion she should be the next in line for a Dumbfuck! tag
At least that's how I see it.

Bold is where I lose you. She wasnt hoping for a pass she was looking for an explanation.

Why is everyone so hyper sensitive because someone insinuated that the Oblivion/Skyrim hazing might be a guy thing? That seems like all it was. And you know, its probably true to an extent.

Emo much ?

We can't all be hardcore emotionless internet superheroes, I suppose. Hell, with such startling clarity of analysis, you should take up work as a therapist, just immediately send every client back out the door with an "EMO LOL". Perhaps a philosophy teacher. "Today, class, we'll be studying John Stewart Mill. EMO LOL"

Also, I was actually mostly correct about the targeting thing, so yeah. :thumbsup:

During internet drama ? It's the least a man can do. Crying is one thing, typing "I'm crying" is another.

Because getting overly worked up on the internet = crying in real life. It bothered me enough to drag out the argument and miss out on some of the more obvious alt cues, and I mentioned why that was the case, that's it. Like fuck I'm going to explain why with jackals like you around.

Crying was just an example. It's like writing AAARRRGHHH when dying. If you can't refrain from typing, posting and thus sharing that emo crap you're fair game for mocking as far as I'm concerned.

It depends. What do you think about prosperity?
Yours? Mine? The doctor at the nearest asylum?
Only one sort of prosperity is prosperous enough. :obviously:


Though I must admit that the extent to which you get riled up about the whole woman thing makes it extremely tempting to use it. Not because I care, really, but because I know a big berserk button when I see it, and I love pushing big berserk buttons.
Sounds like a way to implement criticals in conversation, at least with trollish options.

I remember when I seriously riled one Polish fantasy writer (E. Białołęcka) by slagging a seriously disappointing sequel by her on a forum and (accidentally) bringing up that maybe getting Polish fandom award (Zajdel) twice in a quick succession pumped her ego and diluted her prose a bit.
She PMed me in allcaps.
Felt good man.
:smug:

That should probably be called "trollgasm".

The drama was unfolding in parallel in this and the other Bethcrapsta thread. If you read that one you'll understand.

This thread is far longer than it ever should have been. Let's see if this works:

END OF LINE. :salute:

Well if it makes you feel better, Vazdru seems to have still not caught them, so...

You've just sanctioned our mocking Melissan. Thanks :smug:

DraQ said:

That would be equivalent to "the doctor at the asylum", so I'll pass, thank you very much.

Besides I STILL HAVEN'T FORGIVEN YOU FOR THE UNICORN. You bastard.

Or for the Unreal II female PA. Just writing this almost broke my brain again :retarded:

You have my vote.

And you're invited every time as far as I'm concerned :love:

ARCANIA LP YOU FAGGOT :x

Alternatively, showdown with Cleve :smug:

(though that'll be hard to organize now that Cleve's run away)

Hell no. Page 20 at least, 40-something if Melissan comes back. Followed by a retardo sticky :salute:

Do you want me to post something that will wash that sight away?

I derive certain kind of pride out of the fact that I managed to get some people here to click image links in Deus Ex thread referencing Arcania despite I clearly labelled them "Acrania". Why troll using shockporn sites everyone is wary about when you have medical shots that make people lose both sleep and appetite? I cannot tell.
:?
They are probably making doctors in some asylum prosperous now, though, so their sacrifice was not in vain.

:smug:


Edit:

Ah, here's the link. Cherished, cherished memories.

(I'm not a very good person, probably. :( )
