True or false? I'd like a few unbiased (as in not biased by me) opinions before I give mine.

German Opening Strategies: Update for Online Play

PREFACE: I am really a rather rotten player. I write this not because I enjoy any good measure of skill at the game of Diplomacy, but rather because I enjoy writing.

Drinking Age
What is the drinking age in your society?
This is the most illogical part of America. An 18-year old has the competence to vote for President but not to drink a beer.

quick question
Hi, I used to play many many years ago and now I am back to webdiplomacy. Just a quick question, how many phases do you need to miss for the game to kick you out?

Apologies if this question had been asked before but I couldnt find it in FAQs.

Dear Krellin, who do you hate?
I'd like to start a game with some cool lefties/decent people, and figured the quickest way to work out who to invite was to ask you who you hated most. At the moment I'm thinking a game with Tolstoy, Major Mitchell, Thucy, Cachimbo, Hecks and Bo-sox would be fun. Did I miss anyone?

The Libertarian Rift
It is often claimed that divisions in the GOP run clearly along statist/libertarian lines, but this is frequently unclear in practice, as there are a good many other divisions and alignments as well (as in the Democratic Party). Here is a particularly clean example of the former, however.

Replacement for Summer League Games
Hi all. I am looking for someone who would be willing to replace one of the seven members in our Summer League. She abruptly decided to give up Diplomacy and her departure has halted our league play.

If you are interested in replacing someone who is in a great position in the League message me and I can send you more information. Thanks.

Thucy -- I will *gladly* discuss wit you - in depth - the appropriate and inappropriate use of the word nigger. I will find you commentaries by black people that agree with me.

In short, I am for equal opportunity and equal treatment for *all* in this country. If nigger is a word that has aceptable use for *some* of our citizens, then it is a word that can be used by all citizens -- to treat people differently - AS YOU DO - because of the color of their skin is blatantly racist. YOU say nigger is a bad word that should never be used...and then you pat the poor little black kids on the head and excuse them for their bad behavior when they use the word. I do not play by such hypocritical rules and thus I will use it here **to make a point**.

YOU empower words and create hatred by selecting them out for special action, by dividng the country over the use of language.

I seek equality for all.

YOU forgive elected black politicians for using equivalent hateful racist language towards whites...I do not.

Thucy -- the only one around here who is vile and biggoted is you - the Noble White Liberal, who *constantly* condescends to the black man and all women, who tells them that in and of themselves they are too inferior to suceed in this world without YOUR help (Noble White Liberal), and whom you also hold to a different, and LOWER standard of behavior, because you think they are too broken as humans to be held to the same standard as white men.

You are racist to the core, Thucy.

Thucy -- Man up, you fucking coward, and address EACH of my points one by one and tell me *exactly* how I am wrong?

You think people should not be treated equally?
You think people should have special priviledge in their behavior based upon skin color?
You think minorities and women need the help of white men to succeed?

Start with those three, coward.

Sorry for the slow responses, I'm at work.

I don't understand why you think everybody should be treated "the same", when nobody is the same. Everybody is different and should be treated differently. That's human nature. You don't talk to your step-mom the way you talk to your best friend.

Ahhhhh....and here it is. Blacks are different from whites, saith the good Liberal.

Please continue and clarify. Precisely how differently should the blacks be treated. Exactly how unequal are they to whites? This should be interesting...

Blacks and whites are not equal. They have different physiologies for a start, and different skin colour.

If by "the blacks" (lol bigot) you mean African-Americans then they have a historical and cultural difference that needs to be taken into account. If on the other hand you mean Americanised blacks ie. black Americans then they need to be treated like American males, which is different to the way you'd treat say, a chinese female.

Anyway I don't know what you mean do you mean in terms of welfare, legislation? Please clarify what you mean by treatment and who you mean by "the blacks" and "the whites".

There are also socioeconomic considerations that affect minority groups - according to Ellen Meara of Harvard University the difference in life expectancy due to socioeconomic status in the US is up to 30 percent
krellin (80 DX)
05 Aug 13 UTC
SYnner dodges the question....Libtard Badge #2 for today! One more dodgy answer and you'll earn yourself a hat trick!

So...to attempt to clarify...every person should be examined for their specific ethnic background and then be provided with a special set of rules as to how they are to conduct themselves in our society, with some being treated more or less leniently based upon their skin color, and the place of their ancestral origin. Check…got it…equality is a farse.

Socioeconomics…got it…so blacks that come from a wealthy upbringing do not deserve any special favors, and white kids that come from generational poverty deserve special consideration for college entrance. Got it. I agree with you here.
krellin (80 DX)
05 Aug 13 UTC
So SYnner - different psyiology, etc...got it...clearly different genetics are at play...

So...morality -- should black be held to a different morality than whites, in general?
krellin (80 DX)
05 Aug 13 UTC
It is a YES or NO question...no dithering necessary. Answer the question.
SYnapse (0 DX)
05 Aug 13 UTC
No because genetics are superficial at best. If you read some modern books on evolutionary biology, like Kate Distin's Cultural Evolution or Herbert Gintis's Human Reciprocity and it's Evolution, you'll soon realise that gene-centric evolution has basically been debunked.

However people should (and are) held differently accountable due to circumstance. A poor person should be less guilty of stealing a loaf of bread than a rich person. That's common sense.

"differently accountable due to circumstance." I have no idea what this Libtard psycho-babble means.

Your genetic-centric nonsense again...blah blah blah...has no bearing on this discussion.

Is using offensive language morally incorrect, SYnner?
SYnapse (0 DX)
05 Aug 13 UTC
To reiterate Krellin you can't just divide people into blacks and whites. There is a huge difference between a black, upper class American and a black destitute Somalian. besides class, cultural divisions cannot be ignored either

@Nigee - nobody cares - normal people don't judge others by their skin color...but you seem spretty hell bent on identifying your spouse first and foremost by her skin color, like it's some badge of honor. You are pathetic.

SYnner -- ANSWER THE QUESTION. Is it, or is it not, morally incorrect to use offensive language?
SYnapse (0 DX)

Using offensive language can be morally incorrect, it depends on the context. You shouldn't talk to your 6-year-old daughter the way you talk to a hooker

Hey Krellin
Could you warn me whenever you read a good argument against you in one of the many threads? I was thinking we might have to recruit some secretaries who can filter out arguments like Kafkatraps, complete fiction, partial fiction, anything including the word nigger, so we can focus on the arguments that can be considered worthy of your time. Post interest in becoming secretary in this thread and I'll get you a form.

How DARE Soldiers Fighting Religious Fanatics Not Be Religious?!
http://news.yahoo.com/u-military-problem-atheists-065000534.html
I find that ironic in the US Military's case (for the above-stated reason)...but it's an issue that crops up every now and again, people thinking that a lack of religious belief MUST mean you're "at risk," or "depressed" or a danger to yourself or others...how about we're not convinced by the "evidence" for God and think that Religion kills (and encourages killing at that) and leave us be?

295 versus Turnpike
