Didn't Marc say that the 4 topics would last over a span of 5 days?

If the rest of GT didn't give a damn, that was fine by us. We weren't looking to challenge the entire forum.
And because you aren't challenging the whole forum, the whole forum doesn't want to see this soap opera at the top of this board anymore. It would most appreciated if you handled the rest of your business in PM form.

You guys just don't get it, do you?

Never mind.

Apparently we don't.

Okay, but isn't that plenty of time? Participants most certainly would not have had to change plans because they had to attend a debate between 4-5 PM. Besides which, I don't claim to read Marc's mind, but I believe 5 days was a ballpark figure.

And gekko is allowed to make a topic specifically addressing Justin (i.e. TheGame) in the title? It would have been a lot of trouble to PM every member who had volunteered, and we didn't think the vast majority of members would mind if we just made a topic. We figured that any member who wasn't interested in reading what was going on would simply not read this topic. Come to think of it, that's what most of them seem to have done. You're the only one telling us to get rid of this topic. Since when did you speak for the whole forum?

Joeiss 08-22-2002 02:57 PM

GameMaster is an idiot. Just ignore him. And I really do not think that anybody (with the exception of GameMaster) thinks that this thread is crap.

Xantar 08-22-2002 03:03 PM

Well, I can't endorse your assessment of his intelligence since that would be flaming and I have to provide an examp...

Wait, I'm not a mod any more. Hmmm. Okay, fine. I'm ignoring him. I think I've said all that needs to be said anyway.

Erm, I might as well talk about killing Taliban fighters and killing bullies. Simply put, bullies don't usually kill people. Taliban fighters do. That's where we draw the line.

I think your the one who is pretty clueless. This thread was directed at choice people, and you judge the whole forum even when your post says judgement is wrong...

Angrist 08-22-2002 04:22 PM

Yeah I keep feeling like you're talking to me, while I already told you the first day that I couldn't join!!!!

Apperantly those 4/5 members don't/won't show up here, so PLEASE send them some PMs, just to get them in here, ok?

Professor S 08-22-2002 05:01 PM

My comments have been made to the assinine people that have embarrassed themselves by responding to this thread by flaming Xantar and making claims that we PVG members only wanted the debate to stroke our own egos. I am a GT member, so if I was aiming my comments at all of GT, that would include myself. That would be stupid.

At this point the debate is dead. That is obvious. I wouldn't go through with it now if the 5 members who weer interested did show up. GT has proven to be a hostile environment for activities like we proposed. All you would have to do is read this thread to realize this. I prefer not to have it here anyway, and whatever thread it would be performed in would most likely be littered with attempts at humor through derision.

If you don't want to debate or or don't like debates, that is fine by me. But those trying to make themselves feel superior by making fun of those that do are insecure, immature dolts.

And I didn't call Xantar gay because he like "mature, intelligent argument in which both sides benefit from". I said it because that is what I truely feel that he is, a homosexual.


Prime example. Talk about childish, bigotted slander attempting to be intelligent...

But like I said earlier, you guys just don't get it, do you?

So never mind.

After reading this thread I have to say I am greatly dissappointed by GT's response to a activity that actually promotes intelligent conversation and personal growth.

Well I guess if thats the response we receive, then a mature intelligent conversation could never happen with GT.
I understand that in other parts you had hidden statements that is was only for certain members when you said something about it embarassing you and other members of GT. But be more direct next time.

Please tell me. How is my view about Xantar "childish, bigotted slander"? Just because my views about him are different that yours does not make it childish.

GameMaster 08-22-2002 09:34 PM

Just for record, I find The Strangler's use of selected big words very unimpressive. :-o

And as for Joeiss, I don't know what to say, you hurt my feelings. :(

PureEvil 08-22-2002 09:57 PM

I think that's about enough of that.
