Western Spring (as opposed to Arab Spring)
How long until we really start to get rid of our own tyrants?

Just curious what people think and all... Also trying to have some compassion for the Arabs because right now it's just one of those things happening somewhere in the east for me... It would come much closer if I see what this would mean in the west I suppose... Discuss.

The Future of Western Armed Forces
In Holland, the downward economic spiral has led to massive cuts in defense. I wonder if that shouldn't be preceded by a thorough and nation-wide conversation about this topic, that I believe many countries are currently dealing with. In this thread, we discuss the future of the armed forces.

No, it's just fucking annoying. He posts in every thread like he is an expert on every subject, usually spouting the most retarded un-thought-out opinions. He is an attention whore and the single most important reason the forum is so fucking terrible right now.

Lando, there is another thread on the front page, right now, started by ILN, with the topic title "Niggers". You have not commented in that thread, I notice....

In the "Niggers" thread, and others, Draugnar has been posting descriptions of his penis, and boasting about his ability to seduce 17-year-old girls.

And yet somehow you think *this* little joke about Blankflag is the current thread most likely to drive members away? Seriously?

lando's right, bo is a pretty terrible poster. draugnar is worse but bo is pretty bad

No jamie, you don't get it. I think this thread is an example of how terribly annoying bo sox is. Unfortunately, it is not confined to one or two threads. He posts the same bullshit in every thread and it is always terrible. I haven't read the threads you describe and I doubt I will - I don't see a point.

I don't know if you've noticed but most threads on this website recently have nothing to do with this website, this game or even the type of stuff you'd find in normal everyday conversations. Bo sox drives most of this retardicism by thinking he is the funniest person on the planet. He's not, he's useless and moronic and it sucks because he is unavoidable.
And to be fair and harp on the same old point. If president eden posted this you would all be falling all over yourself trying to show that you got the joke.
Jamiet99uk (848 D)

No Lando, you don't get it. If you're going to publicly attack someone for driving reasonable members away from the forum, you need to do that in the context of other *much worse* stuff that has been posted on the forum recently and is *much* more likely to drive people away.

Bo_sox is sometimes funny, and maybe sometimes you think he's not funny, but he's not the one posting about niggers or raping underage girls. If you want to talk about what's likely to drive people away from the forum, you can't ignore that stuff just because you find Bo's jokes irritating.
I can recognize your point, jamie, I don't disagree. However, there is still validity in what I am saying, removed from this other situation.

To comment on SantaClausowitz' post, I think Eden posts some very funny things. The difference though is that Eden posts funny stuff that doesn't depend on webdip for people to get it. You just need to follow real world stuff. Bo sox is epeating some inane inside joke that only a handful of people get.

The worst thing on this forum is the overuse of "memes." They serve no purpose. Never once has anyone who has posted "is he knew" "they eat people down there" or whatever the fuck useless waste of time phrases come across as anything other than purely retarded.

Ok, but for you to say that some unfunny jokes are the "single worst thing" about the forum, when other threads talk about much more offensive and off-putting things, suggests that either you need to reconsider your priorities, or you're blissfully oblivious to a lot of the stuff that happens on the forum.

I would also say that you're wrong about memes and inside jokes. Used in moderation, they're part of the sense of community that all good forums have.
I am not "wrong" about them. We disagree about them, neither of us are right or wrong. Jamie, it feels like you are arguing for the sake of arguing, which I don't particularily appreciate. I think we recognized our differences of opinions earlier in this thread, and perpetuating this argument is not helping anyone's forum experience.

I'm not arguing for the sake of it at all. I think there are some serious issues about the state of the forum lately, and I'd like to see them addressed. Your personal attack on Bo_Sox is petty and disproportionate, and does nothing to confront the real issues that *are* likely to turn people away.
idk about that, i wouldn't be posting this b/c it's not funny

@Steephie: mute doesn't work on blankflag because every day he creates a new account and joins the site with that account, not his previous one. This makes it impossible to actually mute him.
Lando Calrissian (100 D(S))

It doesn't work on bo_sox because there are too many posts. It actually causes the site to slow down cosniderably and the psots aren't hidden until a[pproximately 5-10 seconds after any given page load. The mute function quite simply does nto work.

I could care less about muting blankflag, the guy appears to have more sound opinions about pretty much everything than bo_sox, which is saying a lot.

We should have a triple secret probationary silence on the site.
While the subject is light hearted Animal House sounding, I mean it when I say it. If the system had a way to silence forum posters posts without indicating to them they were silenced (kind of a universal mute) then people like blankflag could be secretly silenced and the good boys and girls of the forum wouldn't have to put up with him trying to come back in under a different name.
