You didn't step out of line, I was making a joke on how what you said about Kal 'n how he would most likely respond

I think he will write a long paragraph about why I am wrong, except it doesn't actually say why. It will probably have "aint" and "like i said" in it. And then he call me an idiot on the discord.

If I respond, he will write an even longer paragraph, that still doesn't say anything. He will eventually say "well I'm done talking about this" and pretend like he is being the bigger person by ending the debate, while he is trashing my character on the discord.

Sulania might jump in at some point to tell me I am debating wrong.

its not criticism or blowing off steam. its just immaturity.

and from what ive seen you are a top offender

I don't agree, I don't think anyone who actually looks at the Discord will either.

Maybe back a week ago, or a month ago or before trolls started coming.

But not now, after so long. I'm just tired now, Andy.

Why should I care that Lat wants to pretend that he's perfect, that people are unfair to him.

Why should I care that a bunch of nations -who are probably the same trolls that have been trying to make the Region as unfun as it can be- only ever post a complain on the Discord, and are silent besides that...suspicious as that is...

Why should I care that Lat just wants to put more arguments on the RMB?

The point is, I stopped caring a while ago and I don't even want to be involved anymore. So I'm going to take my own advice and just limit my exposure.

I'm not gonna CTE, but I'm not gonna be active either, now since the trolls have gotten their fill, hopefully we can stop having arguements on the RMB.

That's what you do though. You jump into arguments and critique people's debate skills, usually in support of kalaron. It's kind of your thing.

Yes, I don't do anything else. It's not like I have an entire RMB history filled with other things. Maybe your taking your interactions with me as representative of all my interactions with everyone else. At which point then, okie dokie.

Also I just don't get on the RMB all the much anymore, and when I do its either dead or there's an argument. It's kinda hard to juggle work, high school and college while still havin some essence of a soctal life and then on top of that make time to interact with people that aren't all that active to begin with.

Respectfully, you really seem to get off on calling people trolls just because they disagree with you.

It's mostly the insinuation. And the fact I still have a headache.

Tecmonaenov wrote:Respectfully, you really seem to get off on calling people trolls just because they disagree with you.

thats because its easier to call someone a troll or an alt than to admit they have a point

Sulania wrote:It's mostly the insinuation. And the fact I still have a headache.

lol no. stop it. i said that if i got into an argument with kalaron, you would jump in and support him by criticizing my debate style. i have seen you do it over and over in arguments with other nations. i did not say thats all you do. you are just trying to bury my point. tbh, thats as sloppy a debate tactic as using the ad hominems u are so of complaining about.

Do we have to discuss this over and over again ? Isn't it possible to just move on? We heard the same arguments a couple of times. I think we reached a point here to just say 'We agree to disagree.' That's it. If you have a personal problem with each other than take it to a private conversation.

That's all I wanted to say.

You have got to be kidding. I said "Someone called me a plebian and a puppeteer on the Discord." You said "I don't remember that" like that means it never happened.

Why do I need to help you remember? If you care, use the search function to find it. It's not my job to jog your memory. Don't call me unhelpful for not entertaining your self-serving laziness.

And Khitoum is right. Some people use the Discord as their private club for trashing people who mostly post on the RMB, and speculating who is an alt. Its not very classy.

We're not going to move regions because someone is having their feelings hurt. That won't solve the problem. What will solve the problem is establishing an easy system for the removal of trolls/alts (which do actually exist in the region right now and are not, as is currently being spread, a form of smear-ey label used by Kal even if he does use the term extremely liberally). I'm currently in the process of drafting a constitution I believe has the capability to do just that.

Mostly from Reddit /r/news, worldnews, and a bunch of other subreddits (I've made my own multireddit where I can aggregate all of these feeds into one).

Aside from that generally I'll go to CNN and Google News as well. I even sometimes go to Fox News because it's important IMO to look at the "other" side and see how they are receiving the news and how it is being reported. It's interesting to see a world event occur and comparing articles between Fox News and MSNBC and how they reported it.

What will solve the problem is establishing an easy system for the removal of trolls/alts (which do actually exist in the region right now and are not, as is currently being spread, a form of smear-ey label used by Kal even if he does use the term extremely liberally). I'm currently in the process of drafting a constitution I believe has the capability to do just that.

Well I get my news from nearly everywhere. I avoid news stations that I know that are simply gonna waste my time, but I do like listening the news and then making a comparison so I can analyze better the situation and hear as many point of views as I can. That's what I am doing in real life in the organisations I work with and also thats what I used to be doing in the European Parliament.

Outer Oz what is your opinion of the new Zircon missile system?

Just a quick one for all the people sh*tting on discord - it's not some kind of elite club that dumps loads on everyone's doorsteps. People have conversations about anything and everything, if it happens to be on a certain person - they can do that, you can't stop them. If it doesn't happen there, it happens in Skype, it really makes no difference. Ultimately, it's a wing of NS that many users including myself use to communicate with friends, and we enjoy that communication. Don't paint everyone with the same brush and throw out ridiculous accusations when you disagree with one thing/one person. We go from talking about space to having full on raged-fueled debates, it's just the nature of an online community.

There's loads of different residents on there, not everyone agrees and not everyone gets along, but it's a community after all.

If you want to be involved in this 'elite club', there's a secret way of getting in: click on the link and get an account ya morons. It ain't that hard and I'm sure people bored the f*ck out of their skulls like myself will talk to you.

Seriously, no offence, but don't use the Discord as some kind of scape goat - if you don't have it, you may not be as up to date on regional affairs but that's your own problem. It's just like complaining that you have to read the RMB to be up to date on what's happening. Like, yeah, well done?

Sorry my friends, gotta put it out there.

The Washington Post, The New York Times, and the Tampa Bay Times (my local newspaper) primarily. I'll also occasionally glance at Fox News (if I want a conservative viewpoint on the subject), CNN, Salon, or The Atlantic.
