I don't know. I registered for the forum intending to represent the nay side of the Arena mod argument, but it's like alternative views are considered disloyal, so I accumulated -100 pies from that alone.

But it's okay. As Tancred said... I'm a baker! People just like to eat my pies because they're so tasty.

Edit: Sorry, probably should have privately messaged this response. It has nothing to do with what this thread is about.

Only uncalled for in the current situation, Ytts.
As a general thing, Kade is unliked, and it is for doing things such as what she pointed out.

Everyone hates the new guy.

I'm not even sure what Auvic's problem is. Take a look at how many posts I've made. Not many. I'm not sure how she can say 'you post shit like this with the intention of starting fights', when 98% of the posts I've ever made were to represent the nay side of the Arena mod argument.

Sorry I wasn't on your team, Arena-ites. Maybe you'll get a mod next time? Until then, have a pie or something.

It's not that everyone hates the new guy, Kade. I don't think I was ever hated on, back when I was new.
And no, I'm not saying anything about you posting for the nay side on the Arena issue. Anyone can disagree, sure.

But you can present a disagreement in a way that isn't begging for a fight, no?

Take, for example, your posts in the "An apology" thread.
Or, earlier, "I don't even know you, Sir Panties McTwist. And I probably should have heard your name around somewhere if you're the one speaking on behalf of people."

Oddly enough, if you're the 'new guy', why would you expect to know anyone? ?___?

I asked a yes or no question in that thread. Nothing more. Specifically because I didn't want to argue.

Or, earlier, "I don't even know you, Sir Panties McTwist. And I probably should have heard your name around somewhere if you're the one speaking on behalf of people."

Sir Panties McTwist is totally innocent. It's like something you would hear in an Orbitz commerical. "Who are you calling a Cootie Queen you Lint Licker!" "Pickle you, kumquat!"

How did this thread go from Athe and myself going into the Lobby to wait for a mod, to Kade and Auvic fighting? I don't even remember either one of them being there when the the whole mess went down? Which wasn't really a mess, although it has causes this thread to continue for a few days.

I am noticing there isn't much hate between the MH and the Lobby as people think. The only hate is between a few individuals, but not either room as a whole.

Actually, the entire basis can be whittled down to a select handful (at highest) of users per person, I imagine. You could probably squeeze hated names out of everyone who has/claims to have an issue with either room.

I'm just saying, Xach and Vivi were at least trying to level out on a decent note.

Doesn't seem like it's going anywhere, though, as the usual trolls... well, they troll.

Sorry if it seems like I'm trolling and/or derailing - definitely not the intention.

Just thought I'd clear up Kade's confusion, if he presumably had any.

Actually, the purpose of the thread was served as soon as actual, thought-out discussion began on it. I wasn't so much trying to resolve anything or level things out on a decent note as I was to hopefully limit the number of headache-inducing insult wars in-chat.

This was a success, as far as I've seen; I don't leave the Lobby much, and thus I could be missing something, but at least it ain't in the place I hang out.

If discussion continues, or resumes, good. Communication leads to progress, by and large, and progress is good.

If not, fuck it, it had a good run and some progress was made. At least it didn't devolve into the retardation of a Lobby-Hall battle.

I thought Literacy's remarks were uncalled for.
They largely were, in hindsight. Ended up causing more shit rather than cutting it off prematurely and derailed the topic anyway. :/ Sorry for that.

Kade is/has in the past acted like a massive tool, though, in every instance I've ever seen him in a debate with people (Not just on the forums, mind. Just because you don't see my OOC name in the chat doesn't mean I'm not there.) It seemed clear that he just posted to take a stab at the MH/Lobby animosity that exists among some users. Which is funny, because he's not an active user of either room. So he's not involved even remotely in any way to begin with. (Not that...I was, either, but I'm at least a part of both rooms and think that the MH/Lobby dogfights are ridiculous.)
Just saying.

Anyway, yeah. Let's keep it on topic.

I'd say we did end it on a fairly decent note, Robin, its no longer even slightly related to what it was. Let them have our used discount thread if they want, we're done with it, and can trade this one in to them for a nice down payment on a new thread complete with that new thread smell if we so desire.

Insults and non-topical comments.

Whee for you being...oh, that's right...like a good number of people in this thread. Useless to the topic at hand.


As someone said before, people remember the rooms for the EXCEPTIONS, the total assholes and the trolls, rather than the everyday user - the ones who sit and chat and, for the most part, keep their comments to themselves despite how stupid things are getting.

Like a few of the recent events, this becomes more and more evident.

In other news, harming old women is unacceptable.

So is profiting off of the destruction of other peoples' minds.

You can legally hurt old people by giving them CPR

It's just a matter of putting them in a situation where they'd need it.
