Nicely put jdjtcagle. Tin Can my comment was meant as nothing more than good fashioned ribbing.

 I tend to avoid flaming whenever possible and it's rare that I'll actually do it without provocation so relax a little.

Everyone is not out to get you. If you feel you are I suggest you look up some early posts by FreeTerran as an example of how someone can undergo a trial by fire by making mistakes early on and then end up as a valued member of the community.

If you act like everyone hates you it won't make anyone respect you. The way to get respect is to earn it.

Or kill everyone who does not respect you. Whichever is more practical really.

Yeah but that could result in you losing the respect of those who did respect you earlier, resulting in you killing everyone and still not having respect cause there's no one left

Let's just say that reacting to sarcasm with anything other than the symbol is like turning on a light in a moth farm

Exactly. Basically, what people want is peace and self-determination, though not necesarilly in that order. Give it to them, and they'll leave you alone. Don't, and they won't.

See this is the problem with the middle east - I started this thread because people should be worried that my duly elected representatives to parliament are being ****ING SHOT AT!

really? I would have thought you'de be cheering in the street. Its quite an ingenious way to get rid of politicians - just send them to Israel for some "peace talks" and the rest takes care of itself.

I prefer the democratic process, it still works on occassion.

Far more ruthless than natural selection.

I friggin love that game! And I make maps for it!

You need to play on the [On|E] Lerky Jerky server. Best server in the world.

*Ejects president*
*Insert n00b president*
n00b: this doesnt look so hard...
Liberals: OMG DROP US STUFF COMM!
Conservatives: We need to take that res node... cmon team!

Well that was odd.

That is how Natural Selection works. He was refering to how it would be much easier if you coud just VOTE your president out of office.

Natural Selection is full of either players who follow orders, whine for guns, or try and run the game for you. Working with me now? Vyper knows what I am talking about...

[karajorma]

I think Vyper was refering to Darwinian natural selection rather than the computer game

[vyper]

I can categorically say I have not got one ****ing clue what he's on about.
