Play nice?

[KevinTheOmnivore]

It seems like the tone between the regular Mockers and our newer conservative friends has been getting a bit nasty in all of the threads. Could we maybe calm it down a bit, maybe use a little less profanity, and just debate the topics at hand?

That'd be super.

Thanks! :)

[Womti]

I dont come to this forum much, but when I do I will try to make my posts nicer. :)

[kahljorn]

Fine, i was just having fun but if you want a message forum without fun SO BE IT KEVIN YOU'LL GET WHAT YOU ASK FOR BUT HAVE YOU EVER HEARD THE PHRASE BE CAREFUL WHAT YOU WISH FOR? HUH?

No but seriously, I'll stop cussing. The only reason I was cussing at the pharoh guy was because he was taking it so personally.

[KevinTheOmnivore]

I don't mind cussing all together, but i think there's a fine line that we crosssed a while ago, fuckface.

And I was just targeting you, btw.

[Cosmo Electrolux]

which thread specifically are you referreing to?

[KevinTheOmnivore]

The gay adoption thread, as well as a couple of others.

There just seems to be a lot of angsty "NO, YOU CALM DOWN MOTHERFUCKER," and "LEFTISTS ARE SO FUCKING STUPID" sort of stuff going on, which is lame. :(

[Cosmo Electrolux]

I've been lazy lately and haven't read most of the most recent threads. Thanks, Kevin :)

[kahljorn]

"And I was just targeting you, btw."

I know you were, that's why I responded, cunt. You don't need to turn it into a cock fight, though, i already said I would stop. Why would you push the matter?
As if the guy wasn't acting just the ass back, and I was discussing the issues. Again, don't turn it into a cockfight for no reason.
So at what point did I "cross the line" so I can try to avoid "The line" in the "Future".

[Ant10708]

Can we add being a grammar whore onto the list of things that should not be done?

[Cosmo Electrolux]

can I still be the Internet haiku Nazi?

[AChimp]

Wouldn't it be better if we just banned everyone? :(

[ziggytrix]

Why the fuck did the admins have to put an overeducated, politically correct, hypersensitive, registered Democrat in charge of this forum?

I wish you were still a vegetarian Kevin, cuz a veganism reference would have really fit well in that slander. :(

[kahljorn]

Eh, kevin is like one of the longest posting most dedicated members to this forum so it makes sense-- he's just kind of a sap. Apparantly there's no newbie hazings or anything on this Forum, but I guess I can understand why to some degree. Wouldn't want people taking this forum as an excuse for their political views.

[Dr. Boogie]

I'm personally against taking a more civilized tone in those threads. I mean, all the information (or lack thereof) is pretty much out there already, so there isn't much more to talk about except why it's not ok to hate people just for being gay.

[kahljorn]

That's okay, I'm interested in taking a boring and vapid stance on issues today anyway. Who knows, maybe it will become a habit.

[El Blanco]

Wouldn't it be better if we just banned everyone? :(

I concur. Ban all the motherfuckers, starting with >BANNED<

Thanks for being a team player! :)

I personally like it the way it is now. I enjoy reading heated arguments and seeing everybody's emotions play into the debate, it seems more interesting that way. What fun would it be if everyone just sat back and just presented facts and go "well, there it is". Mind you, I don't want the topics to devolve into something GBS worthy (which is probably what you're trying to address in the OP), but don't make it fucking boring either.

[mozz]

Vets hate noobs, its a fact!

I agree with you, I just think you lose the debate when you start yelling on and on about grammar and masturbation habits (or "tossing").

Heated debates are fine, profanity is fine, but petulant whining with cuss words is not.

[kahljorn]

When you posted this thread as a "target" to me none of that stuff was going on as far as I remember. So what's the real problem?

[ziggytrix]

I'm pretty sure he posted this after I cussed out Pharoah for being fucking clueless about this website and for using the phrase "PC leftist bigots" or something like that. :(

[kahljorn]

he posted it before our grammar and spelling police trade, though. I don't personally remember using masturbation insults, that's usually not my style... but who knows, IN THE HEAT OF BATTLE I COULD DO ANYTHING TO SURVIVE THE INTELLECTUAL TUNDRA.
Maybe I'm just taking it out of context because he "Targetted" me, though.

[KevinTheOmnivore]

I wasn't targeting you. I typed it wrong.......I think you know that. :(

[kahljorn]

That explains everything!

[Kulturkampf]

I do not believe in being nice.

I am evil like Pres. Bush and Donald Rumsfeld; I am only interested in draining Iraq of its' oil and insuring that an entire generation of Iraqi's lives are fractured in the name of Halleburton.

[Pharaoh]

Can anyone explain why insults like moron and cunt are acceptable here, but not wanker or hippie?

[kahljorn]

Because you're a cunt, moron.

[Seven Force]

I know i'm not the only person who thinks this is Mad Max and Terra.

[Pharaoh]

Because you're a cunt, moron.

And you're a wanker, hippie.

[Emu]

I don't think Terra has the semblance of thought to be either of them. Max, maybe.

[ziggytrix]

I don't think either of them are characters. And if, by chance they are, they are doing such remarkably good jobs of staying in-character (on par with a dissociative identity disorder) that I wouldn't care anyway.

[Cosmo Electrolux]

because only a complete cock-gobbler would use words like that, you fucking imbecile

[KevinTheOmnivore]

:(

[kahljorn]

It's pretty easy to act extremely conservative, though. I'm sure someone on this board could be doing it. I don't really care, though, it's nice to have advocates around-- even if they are stupid.

[Cosmo Electrolux]

:(

Sorry Kevin....:(

it's tough to have a forum like this without opposing viewpoints...but you're right...it is VERY easy to act conservative....you call everyone a hippy and basically act retarded.

EDIT: I'm sorry...I'm not helping at all.... :(

[KevinTheOmnivore]

It's ok, cock-gobbler made me laugh. :)

Ah yes, you're the one who was upset by those words on the other thread. It's alright, I promise I won't use them again about you, I can see they must have hit a raw nerve.

[kahljorn]

You're so offensive, pharaoh.

what the hell are you babbling on about, you half-witted limey twat?

[Pharaoh]

I'm trying to be nice, I'm bored of thinking up insults.

[kahljorn]

You were thinking? I thought you were just reciting one-liners. Jesus, I hope we didn't break your creative capacity.

[Cosmo Electrolux]

I'm trying to be nice, I'm bored of thinking up insults.

yeah, alright. So, what's the weather like where you are?

[Chojin]

'Cause I bet it's GAY.

You guys can PM each other and exchange ICQ numbers. :)
