Quote:That's AMAZING! That's the SAME combination that I have on my LUGGAGE!Originally Posted by Jophiel
Give me your list of character names. I want to pick a couple and you can replace them with "CghdTySWWWjfd vbW.gfhds1"

As far as the person that said that "I'm always RPing when I'm playing CoX". Nope. At least not in the way you implied...
...unless you count me as RPing God himself who is controlling little tiny people from the sky. Because that's exactly how I play my characters.
I am not THEM, I am controlling them, like God. The same way that I play the Sims... right before I lock them in a room with a refrigerator and no toilet and watch them **** all over the place.
So yeah, in THAT sense, I AM roleplaying..... God. -
I've heard it's always sunny in Philadelphia...

Why pick one? Play on them all! Lots more character slots that way.

Oh I think I read the thread title wrong. -

...I don't know if I love you or Westley more...
Probably the main reason though is because I'm a complete ***. -
Quote:Yes it is. Well, that and stubbornness and a sense of false entitlement.Originally Posted by geeque
Agree...Some people just want a certain name. It is not lack of originality or not having creativity.

Quote:I wonder if India would be free right now if Gandhi had listened to this advice...Originally Posted by Laevateinn
Also, I would ignore that advice about standing there and taking it and even being nice to the griefer. Unless you derive some sort of masochistic enjoyment from being harassed and abused, just petition and walk away. It's not your duty to be a doormat. If they chose to go harass another player, let them; the more people report the griefer the stronger the case against him or her will be.

You know what's kind of surprised me?
That the all-mighty Ocho has let this thread continue as long as it has.
I figure it's one of two things:
1) Ocho's head has 'sploded from the epicness of this thread . . .
2) Ocho is lying on the floor, curled into a fetal position from the
paroxysm of laughter that has ensued . . . -

In your defense, Nietzsche wasn't very perspicacious when he argued this, either.

Quote:Sure she would, because she's against the initiation of force... that is.... actual physical force, the taking of someone's property, while she is also one of the staunchest free speech advocates.Originally Posted by Sister_Twelve
At any rate, the quote is not convincing. I still don't see anything there that would convince me that Ayn Rand would believe that adherence to an objectivist philosophy would grant one person carte blanche to treat another person poorly if doing so netted the person nothing other than a fleeting moment of entertainment.
Speech is speech, actions are actions. They are totally two different things, at least if you believe in the Constitution, which gives people the right to speak whatever they want to and only governs the ACTIONS of people.
Then we can get into a debate about whether speaking is an action or not, which is technically true in the literal sense, you are moving your lips... but not true in the sense that "I can cause you physical harm". Unless you're Mariah Carey, she could probably cause physical harm with her voice if she hits the right decibel.
Let's invoke Godwin, shall we?
"The communists and the Nazis are merely two variants of the same evil notion: collectivism. But both should be free to speakevil ideas are dangerous only by default of men advocating better ideas." -
Quote:Because this private institution that its own rules. And while I am on this private institution's property, I'm required to follow that institution's "rules".Originally Posted by Ironblade
And, following the example of my previous post, go ahead and post that word and see what happens. That would be choosing to behave inappropriately and you would be punished. But why? It's only a word.
But, in the end, THEY are the judges of what's an infringement and what's not, not the players. So petition and move on. -

I doubt she would agree as well.
There is also the matter that what one player sees as entertainment, other players see as a reason to involve the Game Moderators.
"It is not very inspiring to fight for the freedom of the purveyors of pornography or their customers. But in the transition to statism, every infringement of human rights has begun with the suppression of a given rights least attractive practitioners. In this case, the disgusting nature of the offenders makes it a good test of ones loyalty to a principle.
If she supports the rights of "hard core pornographers", then I'm sure she supports the rights of "lolRP". -

Weren't you the one that was saying words don't have meaning, they're just words? So why are you attributing any emotion to my words, thus giving them some meaning other than what's written

Quote:lolWestleyOriginally Posted by Sister_Twelve
It isn't the words you use. It's the intent behind them and the fact that when you use the words you choose, you display that you think the other person is worthless.

Quote:Let's make this simple.Originally Posted by Sister_Twelve
So basically you never have to take any personal accountability for your own behavior. Any lingering negativity that occurs when you've posted something offensive is the fault of the other person because they gave you power over them. Nothing is ever your fault. You have a blank check to be as much of a jackass as you possibly can be forever.
Glad we cleared that up.
Take this word: Can't.
Now remove the apostrophe and replace the second letter with a different one.
The new word "offends" people. But why? They are merely letters. What makes that word any "worse" or better than any other? "Bad words" were made up by people. They are entirely imaginary.
The Osbournes on their TV show swore all the time, but none of them took offense to their own swearing or the swearing of those around them. Why? Because those words had NO NEGATIVE POWER over them. None at all. To them, the F-word was as offensive as saying "spoon".
That's just an example. Words are words. They only have the power over you that you GIVE them.
*shrugs*
I just don't get why people let others have that kind of power over them, the power to upset them so easily. It makes no sense to me.
