Vanilla Napalm Posted March 5, 2012 Report Share Posted March 5, 2012 [quote name='Methrage' timestamp='1330934038' post='2933766'] Its only with GOONS we can see from the AA and know it is going to be a fail post. With both nippy and mrwuss are the only ones I have to click view post to see it, both of them GOONS with nothing good to contribute ever. [/quote] I'm sorry, but what? Ok, i'm going to try and figure this out: When you are a plural you don't read a post made by a GOON, but that doesn't stop you from not liking the post. When you are a singular you read nippy's and mrwuss's posts because you see them as not discussing relevent content. I'm fairly sure that is you're attempting to say. I appreciate you taking the time to explain it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[/quote] I can't make grammatical sense of this - did you mean something along the lines of the following: "This list is actually much larger than you would know. I wait with excitement until you hurl abuse in an attempt to be ~EdGy~ at a growing number of people who merely question your actions and I get to watch as you destroy yourselves...again." I'm surprised that you're only gonna watch and not join in but that's by the by, really. The point I wanted to make in respect of the above is simply that the more vitriol and attention we generate here, the better it is for this world. Things would be rather stale and boring if people don't act to stir things up a little. Or 'become the monster' etc. etc. The more conflict, the more we thrive and the more people like you and the Justinians get to mount up and beat the drums of war to crush us. Win-win situation imho. It speaks volumes that you seem to be excited about seeing us eliminated altogether however, [i]a la[/i] Neutral Shoving - I thought that sort of thing was all in the past, as per your earlier posts in this conversation?

He's loyal, sometimes even stubbornly, and quite efficient at making his opinions and values known.

[/quote] Yes because VE and GOONS didn't consider themselves 'dissimilar alliances' for some time prior to the formation of our relationship, a project I spearheaded personally. Additionally my claim to being a founding father of both documents is well deserved. Doomhouse was my idea. If I recall correctly it was written by me personally. Pandora's box would not have been possible had GOONS and VE not reconciled past differences.
