While We Wait: Writer's Block & Other Lame Excuses

[Lord_Iggy]

Certain NESers...

*GLARES AT LUCKYMOOSE AND ZELET*

...are very good at giving NESers a bad name. Cut it out, you can have a civil discussion without insulting IOTers en masse. Props to NK and Terrance for being reasonable.

 

[Nuka-sama]

I thought I was polite

 

[Lord_Iggy]

I must have missed your post in that IOT/NES thread.

I said it wasn't a competition, as in we shouldn't fight

 

[Lord_Iggy]

Hmm... using the phrase 'Not even a competition' and that mischievous smiley tends to make me think that your intentions were otherwise, but I'll take your words at face value.

 

[Terrance888]

Or smiley value, rather.

Alright, let us keep the IOT vs NES argument out of this thread.
And for those not in the know, Christos200 is a Greek ultranationalist who is hated by 95% of the community and has the great honor of being the single poster who has broken my tolerance limit for ultranationalism and gone on my ignore list. Not trying to troll/flame/whatever, just telling the truth as it is.

Do humans need to have a full discussion with the other primates as to which species is superior?

And if we tried, would they understand?

 

[SouthernKing]

Well, I believe it was either Gamez or Nuke who started the discussion back in the IOT discussion thread, and then Zelet caught on

Walking into a thread that says, "NESERS SUCK AND HAVE NO STRATEGY" isn't the best way keep it civil.

"Civility uber alles"

Please pardon German if I got it wrong.

 

[Lord_Iggy]

Yes, well, our opinions of Christos are known and widely shared, and you've only fueled the fire that says that NESers are an elitist organization that is hostile to newcomers.

Huh??

I had never seen him post before. On another thing I think we can safely blame Nuke or Gamez for the trouble they caused.

 

[GamezRule]

I didn't start it, I just moved it to a new thread to get it out of the IOT Organization thread.

Bull. I tried reeling it in, I didn't post until way later in the thread, and the IOTers said I was polite and made a good point

 

[Nylan]

I'm with Iggy on this.

 

[flyingchicken]

IOT and NES subforums should be merged into a new subforum, Forum Games.

 

[Lord_Iggy]

Huh??

Oh, to be more clear, I was saying that I would be confident in saying that most NESers would agree Christos as a combative and hostile poster. Perhaps I shouldn't presume to speak from others. The second part of my post was criticizing Luckymoose's handling of the situation, where he was hostile towards IOTers in general. I think we're all ambassadors for our community, whether we like it or not, and I found Lucky's tone to be undiplomatic and counterproductive. If their experience with NESers is people insulting and talking down to them (even if certain members of their population are doing the same to us) then that will do nothing to improve their opinions of the NESing subforum and its regulars.

OK Thanks.
