Inoculator9 Posted January 25, 2003 Posted January 25, 2003 I think that this stupid argument has hit a wall, I seriously doubt that there is much more to be argued here. We should all just quit this as I seriously doubt emprworm can express his opinions any more clearly, or change anyone elses.
quoudam72 Posted January 25, 2003 Posted January 25, 2003 what about me am I chop liver? No your more like a turkey. *pulls out a knife and fork and chases DjCiD around the board* :P :D ;D 8)well, Quondam, I understand your spite against me, though I hold nothing personal against you, I will mention that more than one person has voiced sympathetic agreement with me. I enjoyed Zamboe's observation that a large chunk of this community - the EBFD part, has virtually no representation in the Landsraad which is basically the Tech/Fiction people voting in their friends every month. I thought that EBFD was community also. No you still do not understand but we are making progress. It is not about spite. It would only be about spite if you owed me some credits you do not owe me any soloris do you? O_o
emprworm Posted January 25, 2003 Posted January 25, 2003 lol, i usually edit my posts Nyar, but never to change the substance of what I say. If you look at my posts, about 80% are edits because I either misspell or decide I want to add something. There is no post of mine that I edited that changed the entire meaning of the post. My opinion is not shifted. The original opinion was elitism, which is identical to the final opinion. That is not shifting at all. The original and final are in perfect harmony- like a mormon tabernacle chorus. lol! Ok, I'm going to agree with innoculator here- me doing anymore explaining from this point on is futile as my position is assuredly clear. I do believe (unless something else comes up) i will no longer post on the subject. i've said all i can.

You started a discussion without any proof or backup for that matter. Unfortunately for you, you found yourself in a position with someone better at the discussion you presented. What you're stating above is that I'm actually right and you're wrong (don't forget people had time enough to read your rant and could have taken proof of what you said, before you edited your post). To bad you're not man enough to admit it.
emprworm Posted January 25, 2003 Posted January 25, 2003 ok, something came up...nyar, i read your explanation for number6 again, it was fair in my mind. you nominated a guy that helped you significantly....no problem with that. I cant fault you for nominating him.yet the fact that somehow, in all of this...he gets position before earthnuker...that to me is a problem. i can't put my finger on where it lies or it lies with, so i just protest landsraad process because the results just don't seem very fair from my perspective. Then I find out about null vote and things start clicking. So perhaps my opinion shifted as I gained information, but my protest did not.

To bad you're not man enough to admit it. then your opinion is stated. fair enough.

Acriku Posted January 25, 2003 Posted January 25, 2003 Emprworm the whole point of it is that anyone can vote for anyone they want. You have no right to tell them who they should have voted, you also have no right to bring in Earth into this whole mess, and it isn't fair to him.
Inoculator9 Posted January 25, 2003 Posted January 25, 2003 I don't think he's going to like the publicity this is bringing to him. But everyone on the Landsraad and those who vote have a right to vote for who they want to.
zamboe Posted January 25, 2003 Posted January 25, 2003 Empr, without the Emperor discussions with WW people coming here, not dissing anybody, but we wouldn't NEED the Landsraad forums. We would already have dedicated Dune fans like before the huge migration, and we would all be mature and have fun discussions. This all happened before the migration, with minor exceptions cough Baron_99 cough. No offense to anybody, and I'm sure the migration brought some hardcore fans and very mature people.Yes, I think you are offending, at least me. You say that ebfd migration has almost no efect in the site.
rogue1896 Posted January 25, 2003 Author Posted January 25, 2003 JEBUS CHRISP!!dear god. you people sure like to talk. lol. well this isn't really what my post was about but what the hell. i don't care. but if it starts to get toasty in here i'm locky this damn thing. *twitch*don't think i won't. i'll do it. i'm just that nuts.and flameweaver, sarcasm. sarcasm.
Lord J Posted January 25, 2003 Posted January 25, 2003 Disagree with me- that is cool, but no need to get emotionally angry.Then I, as a poster on this board, disagree with you. However, like most other members that have posted replies to this and your own thread, disagreeing is seemingly not enough. We have explained, time and again, the processes of Landsraad membership. We have explained, time and again, the Landsraad has no collective power. It is, however, seemingly not enough. What will be enough? Your own absolutist role of power on this board? Your *God-given right* to assign *who* you want to, *when* you want to? Ahh well, I had better stop now, before I post something I will later regret. Simply remember this: the Landsraad is *not* out to "get" anyone. Plans are in the making for world domination, but...*shrugs* ;)
Acriku Posted January 25, 2003 Posted January 25, 2003 Yes, I think you are offending, at least me. You say that ebfd migration has almost no efect in the site. Well sorry if I implied that, it did have an effect, but there are bad sides and good sides of the migration.
emprworm Posted January 25, 2003 Posted January 25, 2003 Then I, as a poster on this board, disagree with you.cool. this forum would suck if everyone agreed with everything. but as a Landsraad member, I would think that you would not agree with me. However, like most other members that have posted replies to this and your own thread, disagreeing is seemingly not enough.no, its enough for me, but not for you. You want me to somehow agree with you voting for The Staple while honorable members sit on the sidelines. I think that is elitist. That is all. I have no other point to make. So it is plenty for me. We have explained, time and again, the processes of Landsraad membership. i know. We have explained, time and again, the Landsraad has no collective power.yup. i know. It is, however, seemingly not enough.oh, it is more than enough. Your own absolutist role of power on this board? i have not sought, nor do seek, any power on this board. I think Gob runs a great board. If I did not, I would not be here. There are many, many forums out there I could join, why would I post here if I didn't think Gob had a good forum? Why would I want any power here? Gob doesn't need my help.Your *God-given right* to assign *who* you want to, *when* you want to?God never granted me such a right. Simply remember this: the Landsraad is *not* out to "get" anyone.hmmmm did I ever say this? no. So I don't think I need to remember it.
SurlyPIG Posted January 25, 2003 Posted January 25, 2003 Whoa this is way too big a thread for the content.Emp, not to get at you or anything, but I'm reminded of a thread in general where you said you, the government, nor anyone else has any business in the affairs of private organizations. Everything from the NCAAP to boy scouts to the KKK. Why is it different with this? It all seems so silly to me...
Mahdi Posted January 25, 2003 Posted January 25, 2003 "So Mahdi, how's the head bashing going?""Ugga booga ugplaw"
rogue1896 Posted January 25, 2003 Author Posted January 25, 2003 lol mahdi. thanks. after ready all that solemn and serious stuff i enjoyed that little laugh. :D
Terror Posted January 25, 2003 Posted January 25, 2003 :Danyway, i must admit that i share a point with Emperorworm... it is strange that most people from the landsraad (i said most, not all) are from the techsupport and fan fic section.
nampigai Posted January 25, 2003 Posted January 25, 2003 the thre latest members is LJ, DjCiD and Number6.LJ post mainly on the fanficDj I see post on the EBFD forumand Number6 on the tech forumit looks like those three is from all around doesn't it ?
Terror Posted January 25, 2003 Posted January 25, 2003 .... yes, but many other members are often mainly tech or fanfic
nampigai Posted January 25, 2003 Posted January 25, 2003 the last three is the ones who was elected in. The other members was from before the merge of the emperor boards.
nemafakei Posted January 25, 2003 Posted January 25, 2003 Mainly Tech or Fanfic? What?Nyar and number6 are from tech. That is all.Lord J is from Fanfic, O45 was here and a big poster before Fanfic started.DjCid and Timenn are EBFD people, Edric is a modder, Gryphon does things in D2k, and most of the Landsraad post in the Duniverse.
Nyarlathotep Posted January 25, 2003 Posted January 25, 2003 no, its enough for me, but not for you. You want me to somehow agree with you voting for The Staple while honorable members sit on the sidelines. I think that is elitist. That is all. I have no other point to make. So it is plenty for me.emprworm, answer me this..as I said before, you rather have that we are forced to vote someone, rather then having us voting our choice ? Whoah, that's very democratic ::)
