    Default Apology

    I would like to issue an apology to Solypsist. I apparently made some unacceptable remarks in thread he started that have caused a stir. It has become clear to me that I do not know where the line of good taste is and in the future, will seek to avoid any sense of conflict. Soly, once again, I was clearly out of line. Expect no more trouble out of me.

    My aim, then, was to whip the rebels, to humble their pride, to follow them to their inmost recesses, and make them fear and dread us. Fear is the beginning of wisdom.

    I am tired and sick of war. Its glory is all moonshine. It is only those who have neither fired a shot nor heard the shrieks and groans of the wounded who cry aloud for blood, for vengeance, for desolation.

    The offending post has been removed. Other than my public apology to Soly and the other moderators, no more needed to be said.

    Yes a link would be nice. Meanwhile......kudos to you Don, it takes a certain character to do this.

    First to the bar gets the 'round in'!

    There are times I wish they’d just ban everything- baccy and beer, burgers and bangers, and all the rest- once and for all. Instead, they creep forward one apparently tiny step at a time. It’s like being executed with a bacon slicer.

    “Politics is the art of looking for trouble, finding it whether it exists or not, diagnosing it incorrectly, and applying the wrong remedy.”

    To learn who rules over you, simply find out who you are not allowed to criticise.

    I am starting think Soly ain't all that bad. After all, I have been enjoying a laugh on him from that banstick thread for awhile now. Just look at my sig and Crazy #4 and #5. If he can hang with that, then he can't be all bad. Even Darth Vader had a little love in his heart. I guess Darth Soly has a little love behind the evil eye too.

    But then again, maybe not. Nope. Never mind. He's evil.

    Why did your apology need to be public if we cannot see the post?

    You have been posting in this forum for a while and have not been considered out of "the line of good taste". In fact, your posts always seem polite. I would just like to know what it is you said so I can correct myself in the future, as there seems to be a lot more warnings being issued to anyone who disagrees with anything Solypsis does, including myself.

    I was warned about a post involving solypsis and was not given an adequate explanation of what I did wrong.. or any explanation at all really. Id like to keep my editing button this time, and its obvious that things have changed because of solypsis, so im trying to figure out what the new rules are. I wouldnt want to be the first to be banned by him.

    I spearheaded a charge against him due to misinterpreted posts he made here. I also clearly do not understand the line between non-offensive special olympic jokes, and in addition, I ruined a fun thread. soly, once again I'm very sorry and you may expect no more trouble out of me.

    Well if there is sarcasm the last laugh belongs to the Euro-mods... they have successfully converted the patrons to the use of Euro-irony... if worked for France so well that they were given a permanent seat in the UN...

    Please see my current location for what I think of this thread.




    But then I apologized once, too. But that was for being a drunken idiot.



    Who cares. You guys gave me great image material. Whoever said that prolyt and Soly would be battling with light sabers just did it for me. And then the whole "special" quote? I'm dying with laughter. I haven't had this much fun on the Org since... well, since we had the bash the dems and GOP thread. That was so much fun. Alas it had to be shut down.

    But oh well. I have Darth Soly, so all is well.

    just relax and go on about your usual business. geeze. oddly enough, the people who seem most vocal against me are users i've never given warnings to, and tend to give the most benefit of the doubt to, just for the sake of not wanting to discourage conflicting debate.

    I'm just afraid of you.

    Divinius, that's hilarious. Your madman side is very amusing.
