OT: But since this topic is all about Mecca (don't know the point), I figure it's as apt a place to ask this as any. I ask this not only out of my own curiosity, but on behalf of someone else who brought it up independently. "What's this 'nicest people in tron' stuff?"

He is supposed to be one of the nicest people in armagetron, I believe. But that title was assigned to him by himself, i also believe. What happened to the guy with a knight as an avatar? He turned to a pony and became nicer, apparently...I won't argue with him. As long as he don't curse out random people for no reason, e is nice enough for me.

Ok, but why did I add this signature? I was like 15 and thought I was smart? What a brat.

Why thank you Mr. Dolphin. : ) The nicest people on tron are always thankful when complimented by others. : )

I never had a knight in my avatar; it was Berserker from Soul Caliber 2.

I became one of the nicest people on tron before I changed my avatar.

I did not assign myself the title of 'One of the nicest people on tron'

To answer your question Phytotron:

The nicest people on tron are simply that; the nicest people on tron. : )

The nicest people on tron are very sunny people who always remember to water their cats. : )

Hmm, the other person has seen it used in-game, as though it was a broader term. I can't remember the context.

That explanation doesn't help. A lot of people on the web don't make much sense to me.

Phytotron is not really the Jealous type; but I would not blame him if he was a little jealous.

All you need to know is that the nicest people on tron are just people on tron that are nicer than everyone else. : )

So, it has no double- or other meaning? Just "nice." Just one of these things the kids pick up on and start mindlessly repeating around?

...

I would rather be genuine and perceived by some nitwits as "not nice," than be phony and considered "nice."

Well, there is a bit of a double-meaning to the "nicest people in tron". Generally, there is a social group of people that like to refer to themselves as the "nicest people in tron" as they bait and troll people. Then, when the chosen person gets frustrated and angry. They pull out their "nicest people in tron" bit to prove that they are better than the person that has been trolled or baited. This naturally causes a bit of a feedback loop to cause the person affected to become increasingly angry and frustrated.

Isn't the act of thinking you are nicer then everyone else in fact not very nice?

To get a better picture of how the nicest people in Tron go about getting the reputation as the nicest people in Tron, just re-read these classics.

Classics indeed. Sine.wav, here is a little lesson for you. The nicest people on tron consist of Mecca, Liz, and I...and sometimes Soulja Girl. I guess ever since I called you out under your IDt alias (nelhyble or whatever), you've had it out for me. And Comp, if I remember correctly, who designed your banner for your forums? Who is the one who promoted your nonexistent HR tourney? Oh yea, you forgot about that :D. The nicest people on tron are also very humble, so we forgive you :).

I have no idea what you are talking about. : )

We are just simply the nicest people on tron.

I forgive your for your jealousy though : )

The nicest people on tron are always forgiving : )

@Sine: Why would you blame all of the nicest people on tron for the mistake of one of the nicest people on tron? He apologized and it is all water under the bridge. Lizmatic, Soulja girl and I had nothing to do with the loss of the ID forums. I forgive you for your jealousy as well. : )

Well, that's certainly not the response I was expecting. I thought I was doing you a favor, pointing out how wonderful you guys are to that evil troll Phytotron - and you make it sound like I tried to defame you in some way. Humph!

Looks like you've shown your true colors. I guess I can expect to hear some more predictably derogatory things from you now. Fire away.
