It is a widely known fact that I hold some particularly entrenched positions on various issues relating to society, government and people with less intelligence than is required to function in life. It is also widely known that I don't typically give much of a f'uck about things that don't reach in to my home and effect my life. Even with these things being true, I consider myself to be a fairly tolerant person.
Yes, there are a handful of people who would disagree with that. ***** them.
That being said, the recent rise in sock puppetry is troubling to me. Troubling not because I really care what you rate yourself, not because of what you rate others, but in that there are that many people frequenting this board who are complete p'ussies.
There seems to have been a shift with the influx of Final Fantasy players. Prior to their resettling here in the OOT there were a great many posters who got and gave. They took the hits when necessary, and doled out when they could. Opinions were indeed like *** holes. everyone had them, and they all smelled like the 'Roo with a Cleveland Steamer on his chest.
Smiting that was done was justified. Katie was a *****. Totem was still white for Bob's sake. The onslaught of the FFXI poster has brought us d1ck and fart jokes a plenty where we were once fortunate enough to be limited to the queen. They brought us the world's largest collection of insipid, one-line posts (Of which poke the moogle was the best, which is saying something). They brought us hurt feeling, mental giants and enough special ed students to start our own school.
The kings of the short bus couldn't bear the duly earned constructive criticism, and have resorted to puppetry on a mass scale. They are blights on this forum, crimes against life and perfect poster children for the Campaign for the Legalization of Post Term Abortions.
Grow up a little bit. Have the seeds to take a hit if we decide you need it. Whiney ******* have a forum, made special by Illia. If you can't hack it here without resorting to puppetry, go use it. Until then, I shall leave you with a hearty f'uck you very much.
