I honestly voted for Dimentio from super paper mario, we need some characters from paper mario in the smash universe, and the ideas behind dimentio and his dimensional transport powers would probably make him a kick ass character to play around with. there's also no legal problems for nintendo that would come about because of it like geno being owned by sqenix.

Sure, they can be fun to please and spend time with,

Some of them are actually pretty nice

As you spend time with them,

You might start to care about one of them

Maybe even trust too

Then, when you least expect it,

they fuck you right in the ass
 
but you keep moving on,

despite your sore ass,

and you meet new women,

people you care about.

they still fuck you in the ass sure,

but it hurts less each time

until finally, you find the one.

the one woman who fucks you in the ass, and you actually enjoy it,

and you spend the rest of your life with them.

Instead of focusing on what the car does, hire people who know how to design cars because god damn that thing is probably the ugliest object I have ever laid eyes on.
this, so much, that thing that is in the OP is NOT a car, it's an abomination.

It's indicative of a problem that both Challenger and Verbatim ended up being banned.

It ought to be the job of the moderators to head this shit off at the pass, and ban the instigator/worst offender before it becomes an issue. If you're banning two people involved in the same conversation, you didn't act quick enough.
It's always easy to decide on what should've been done in retrospect. When things start turning sour, our first reaction rarely is to reach for the banhammer right away. We try to talk to people and defuse the situation with a verbal or formal warning. When I did so yesterday night before signing off, I thought the situation was difused. The split thread had been locked and both parties received a warning not to continue the fight in public. This works the vast majority of times.

However, this morning, it turns out that the warnings weren't received all that well and that in a new, similar thread, the exact same argument was starting up again, insults and jabs included. At that point, there's no longer a first instigator or someone who isn't crossing the line. Both parties knew what they were doing. That it went too far, and that we almost had another derailed thread on our hands.

Like LC pointed out, we aren't always around. And in first instance, we always try to settle things without going for a ban or warning straight away.

Furthermore, we've said it time and time again. If you see a post breaking the rules, simply report it. If you choose to instead respond with similar insults and set off a fight that could've easily been prevented, there's a good chance that when the mods get to it, we'll just see both people fighting and breaking the rules. And at that point, we have to treat them fairly and equally. We can't ignore one person's 5 posts that break the rules just because the other guy did so first. This isn't kindergarten. "But he started it" won't get you very far.

So while I agree that this probably could've been dealt with differently, I'm not going to stop trying to settle things in a mature way by giving people the benefit of the doubt, rather than reaching for the banhammer straight away. This works easily the majority times. But Challenger and Verbatim were both crossing the line and were both given enough warnings, which they both chose to ignore until the very end despite having been made very clear that it would result in a ban.[/spoiler]

I'm curious here. Call it a theoretical.

Two people start up a slap fight. A mod takes said slap fight posts out of the thread, and splits the fight into a new contained thread. Here's the wager.

Everybody has to shut the fuck up some time.

I mean as much as somebody can dislike somebody, there's not a fucking chance two people will spend the entire day going at it.

Eventually that candle will go out. Somebody will get tired. Here's the way I figure it. Two sides are having a row. Mod comes in and ding dong bannus them.

That argument is still waiting to pop up again. And if anything, it has more fuel when a mod intervines because both sides are sort of stuck in the mud disliking each other because "but he got me ding dong bannu'd."

Just an idea is all. An argument starts. Mods contain it, separate it, and only said two users can comment in the thread. Sort of like how mods can still talk after the lock. Eventually somebody's going to burn out. Somebody's going to realize that they have a day to go to beyond the computer screen.

They might pick it up again afterwards. But eventually, one side will give out. When that happens, at that point, there's nothing left to be said. Anyway. Just a muse, is all.
Duuude, you just gave me an idea, those threads get a special forum called flamewars or some shit and in each thread everyone else gets to spectate and watch the fights burn out once every couple weeks, add some extra ads to that forum specifically and boom, a 'televised' internet fight night.
that sounds terrible.
exactly.

My Smash Bros. Soundtrack case was warped/bent somehow, and difficult to open. The CDs didn't have a scratch on them, thankfully.
yeah, luck for me here too, I was worried I'd havee to go for about 6 more weeks waiting for a replacement, it's jut a shame about the case itself because I enjoy collecting the cd cases I get on occasion and putting them up on the cd rack.

438
also, on a mildly related note, the soundtrack is wonderful

because they chose fed ex yet again and, again, I have another broken jewel case, they did  this with the majora's mask soundtrack(which had a cracked back and broken hinge), and now my smash brothers soundtrack case has a broken hinge as well.

tldr- discuss why fed ex sucks and any times a shitty postal service destroyed what you bought in some way.

« on: March 26, 2015, 09:59:35 AM »
this isn't proof that guns need to be banned, it only shows that the parents are massive fucktards for letting such young children be anywhere near a gun. What we need to do is make people more aware of gun safety and if you're going to have a gun in your household, teach the kids themselves gun safety. Also, put your damned gun rack in a place where a 6 year old can't get to it easily.

you seem to forget that modern parents have no idea how to raise a child, and teach them this kind of stuff.
