Maybe WarpPortal shall make subforums for the Offtopic?

Please don't recommend 4chan...

I'll recommend it for you.

[CaNehDa]

I'll recommend it for you.

Lets just not dig up what I think of that site.- I'd rather not go there, and I even believe it shouldn't even be spoken of on these forums.

[Sera]

What do you think about it exactly? It's not *that* bad.

I think raising awareness for SOPA and any bills related to it is pretty important considering that this is a community that is in general, pretty internet savvy and that it would affect most of us. Other than that, politics is just another topic as off topic as k-pop girl clones bands and chinese zodiac signs so I don't really see a problem with it.

I also wouldn't recommend 4chan for anything. If you want to lose a couple of brain cells or despair for the state of humanity I guess you would go there, but for a serious discussion, it's going to be like arguing with your toe lint.

Then I don't see why this topic should be taken to 4chan then. =P

[Sera]

because this topic doesn't belong there, but all of you rose activists' topics do.

[RagingHormones]

1- I don't know why you call them Rose activists when one of the people posting these topics seems to play Ragnarok (mikeberserkr) and the other one (canehda) doesn't even play Rose anymore and doesn't even post in the Rose forum because of self imposed exile.

2- I'm getting the impression that you think 4chan and Warpportal both have people that can't string a coherent argument together so I don't really get what the point it would be to move it to 4chan if it's already like this over here.

Misunderstood what you were saying at first because 4chan's kinda hard to think of as a political action website even if they're associated with anon. Using your reasoning some of the threads in off topic should go on other websites too. The SNSD thread to Soompi or AllKpop, your daily life thread to your own Blogspot or Tumblr, and status updates on Twitter or FB. No complaints for those?

P.S. Who do you guys think will win the Republican party nomination? Gingrich or Romney?

They're all nabs.

It's not political discussion threads I have an issue with, it is the call-to-arms threads that keep showing up here. "Contact your Senator to tell them exactly how evil this obviously evil bill is."

Go number farm signatures somewhere else, you're worse than homeless people asking for money.

[RagingHormones]

Well if it bothers you that much nobody's forcing you to click on the link and to read what they have to say. At least on an online forum it's better cuz u can ignore it easily whereas irl people can actually get all up in your face. It comes down to a matter of opinion on who should post what here and in the end they have as much right to post their topics just as you can with yours.

[Zurn]

Sera not sure where your looking but...

Say no to ACTA iRO dude
Please stop SOPA. Take Action! iRO dude starts this one too
OBAMA signs NDAA and oh look another iRO dude *same as the first one*
NDAA, SOPA (delayed not dead), and now PIPA iRO dude
and whats this!? Help the DRA stop the PCCA your own topic!

so far i have not seen a single ROSE player start a post about sopa, pipa, or acta we may post in one though and even then you iRO and Requiem people still out numbered us~

as for canehda ill give you that he was a rose player but now hes just kinda floating in the off topic section

[RagingHormones]

and whats this!? Help the DRA stop the PCCA your own topic!

Huh.

moral of the story- not a good idea to generalize a group of people especially when the facts don't match up and when it'll make you look hypocritical.

[CaNehDa]

and the other one (canehda) doesn't even play Rose anymore and doesn't even post in the Rose forum because of self imposed exile.

Still am a rose player, I just don't play so much, (was in game 2 days ago)

When I get a new comp I'll make my return-=

I have a crapp computer that can hardly run rose, and no mouse; it's just not enjoyable to play - and I need to rebuy a macro program.

I still owe one player 400m, and I promise I'll pay it back, by now its been so long, I'll consider the value of the loan to tripple and call it 1.2b that I owe, and I' will, I really will pay it off- Just need a few more months to get some crap together.

I'm questioning why:
http://forums.warppo...iracy-theories/
was locked, I was going to post this disclaimer at the top of it;

Spoiler

What Is a conspiracy theory?

It' is an unprovable theory meant to frighten or upset a person; it uses some knowladge.

The thing to know about conspiracy theorys is while they may have relavent info that is true, or false; they are mearly theorys- they cannot harm you, they can only upset you if you allow it to.

Don't ever let information become upsetting to you unless there is something you as a person can do to change it, or prove it.

Don't live your life in fear for what may, or may not happen; what evil empire that may, or may not exist.

with all that being said; please do feel free to post your theories that either you have came up with, or have found-= and remember, just because someone makes a claim that may seem real, the person may sound smarter then you, or more knowladgable- it doesn't matter; Believe that there is good in this world- for look at the Canadian government, to whome loves and supports our people by offering free health care.

IMO, V for vendetta was wrong, Governments shouldn't fear their people- Governments should respect and treat their people fairly, as people should treat their government, and respect it as well; we are all human. We all bleed red. Just because "absolute power corrupts absolutely" - Doesn't mean it has to, or that it always does.

I'm questioning whether or not some of you understand parody.

[Zurn]

No, no i most certainly do not Kitten.

[Sera]

The PCCA is actually really bad though.

[CaNehDa]

I'm questioning whether or not some of you understand parody.

par·o·dy
Noun:
An imitation of the style of a particular writer, artist, or genre with deliberate exaggeration for comic effect.
Verb:
Produce a humorously exaggerated imitation of (a writer, artist, or genre)


Now, in the context you used parody in, is the word you used; a noun, or a verb?

[CaNehDa]

May I ask what country you are from Sera? - I've never particularly agree'ed with the american government, and putting a cost on medical care.

But I've never really been there, I just believe medication, and medical care should be free; and SOPA gives way to much power.

Khan academy shows why it is if you do not understand.

- People are mearly producing awareness; If you have a problem with a particular poster, I would ask that you message that particular person and take up your problem with them there.

I'm not sure if Sera gets what a parody is as well. You have the floor Kitten-sensei, school us rose kiddies in the ways of subtle humor!

[Sera]

i'll say it straight up then, since you're too ignorant to catch it, the DRA and PCCA thread is a clear fake, meant to make fun of all the stupid topics like it. the website linked in it is a website vaguely unrelated to anything, and the USSR doesn't even exist anymore.

Yes, and everyone that was fooled and knew exactly that you where trolling the other topic, and the other people partaking in the conversations of SOPA ect.; all had a great laugh when they where linked to a 12 step guide.

Infact, they all laughed so hard- the feedback for your thread was, well, you deserve an award; you sure showed us.

Drug addiction, mental illnesses, and politics, are all a big joke.

ha, ha....
