Not much of a community if the 'leet' members of a now shitty website get together just to call each other faggots and to kill themselves....just observing.
Dunno whats up with a bunch of these people, seems a bit sad. Cant we all just be friends? Or a best tolerate each other?
*sips tea*
You do realise that people are actually fooling around making silly comments, don't you?
But you do realise that some people genuinely don't like each other on here, right?
Yeah and who cares, that'll never happen because people are too strong for suicide.
What?
What will never happen?
btw sidenote, too strong for suicide? What do you mean by that?
1. It's basically a comment that some people are too good for suicide
Too good? How could someone be "too good" to commit suicide?
2. Suicide on Sep7 members I'm pretty sure you're the only one here who brought up suicide.
1. It's because they can fight, they lift, and they aren't sissies.
2. Nope, read the first comment.
So because someone is physically fit they are somehow "too good" for suicide? I'm a walking contradiction to that. You definitely are the one who brought up suicide, brother.

You know what else is shit?
Assassin's Creed IV. Such a step down from III.
..........................
Please tell me you're not being serious.
Always.
But it's a running gag between Lemon and I. He loves the shit out of ACIV, I despise it. I really enjoyed 3, he hates it (for obvious reasons.)
okay you had me really worried there for a second
Well, I do like AC3 more than IV... but only because I can relate with the setting a bit more than most people. Plus it felt more... open than any other AC game I've played. Brotherhood and 3 are my favourites.

1. Athletic
2. Adventurous
3.Takes care of herself both physically and mentally
I can understand 3, but you honestly wouldn't be with someone if they weren't "adventurous"?
Yea
If I'm going to be with someone they need to be ready to do lots of stuff
can't have any couch potatoes
There are shades of gray, y'know. It's not one or the other. What if they were in the middle between couch potato and adventurous?

That isn't how I see it. Like I've said, the only reason I'm here is to sharpen my arguing skills.

When I first came here I wanted respect. But no one really gets any respect around here
People are respected around here, but respect is earned not given.
That's not how I see it. Admiration is earned, not given. Respect should be given until there is a reason not to.
Well that's stupid.
You give someone a chance to be respected.
Not disregard them, not respect them.
But a chance to earn one or the other. Respecting someone without a reason is very silly.
I was using respect like one would use the phrase "common courtesy".
Being nice does in no way equal holding a person in the highest regard.
You can use hyperbole and roundabout ways of speaking, but using the wrong words entirely is another thing.
Haven't you ever been in any work orientation or school function where some of the basic rules are "respect your co-workers/fellow students"? That is what I mean. It's synonymous with "courtesy".
I think it's a bit of a stretch to say they have completely different meanings.
No I haven't, because the wording used here is "Treat them with respect", you don't need to actually respect them, just act like you do in the case that you don't so to form a less confliting work environment.
Are we really arguing this? Because in my experience, it's been worded both "respect your co-workers" and "treat them with respect". Y'all want me to redact the "respect is given" shit? Fine. I redact it. But that's some shitty arguing there, guys. A forum is a wildly different place from a work environment and is more like a pub.
That isn't how I see it. Like I've said, the only reason I'm here is to sharpen my arguing skills.

I was using respect like one would use the phrase "common courtesy". You should courteous until given a reason not to.
I admire lots of people here, and I hope there are a few who feel the same way about me. But we have earned that from each other.
Then you probably should have said that instead of a word that conveys a completely different message.
They definitely don't. Haven't you ever been in any work orientation or school function where some of the basic rules are "respect your co-workers/fellow students"? That is what I mean. It's synonymous with "courtesy". I think it's a bit of a stretch to say they have completely different meanings. But I mean, if you wanna argue semantics I can just stop replying. It doesn't bother me in the slightest.

Respect is always earned. I was using "respect" like "common courtesy" in this context. You should always be courteous until given a reason not to be, y'know? Perhaps there are reasons you have not earned people's respect yet. There are. Just from a casual outside observation you do kinda come off a bit abrasive. Which I don't remember being the case on bnet. Ha! I was even more of an asshole on bungie.net. I'm a much nicer person now, it's just that people often twist/misinterpret my words to be insults, which is never, ever the case. It's not their fault, it's mine for not wording my thoughts properly. I'm working on it. Insulting people's likes and dislikes out the gate doesn't earn a good impression. I don't recall ever doing this. That and you seem to be taking lessons from the Verbatim school of human interaction. Which makes sense, considering I admire Verbatim a great deal. I'm only a product of the Flood. If you look at some of my posts in Serious, I'm a much more pleasant person because I'm taken, well, seriously. The anarchical nature of the Flood doesn't mix well with my more serious mindset when I get on the internet. It just so happens that this is the most popular forum on the website.

None, don't watch pornography.
Do you masturbate? You just became a lot more interesting in my eyes. It's rare that people have that much self-control.

Yeah, this community kinda blows. When I first came here I wanted respect. But no one really gets any respect around here, so I'm just here to flex my arguing muscles. I'm still not where I want to be.
Anyways, someone please lock the thread.

Where did you see that we're not?
We're even allowed to post porn here.
I remember Jim saying something about it.
Jim posted child porn.
Very big difference. And he did it knowing the rules too.
It might not have been Jim, but I vividly remember someone said something like that. Regardless, the confusion has been corrected.

Alright, guys, what do you think our title/prefix should be? I feel like it should follow this format (and I'm using my current title as an example): Ascended Elite Four Member. And when I eventually when I get a rank up, it will show up as Heroic Elite Four Member and so on.
Gimme your input.
Not that it matters, but I like that. Winner should definitely be "Legendary Champion" or something, though.

I don't really belong to any of them. I'm sure if I loved someone, they would become my girl/boyfriend soon enough and I would have no issues performing... It's just actually finding someone that I love that's the issue.
