My Satirical Perspective

[Kijutsu]

I'm not pretending nobody gets special treatment

Glad we got that covered, all I needed to know.

[sinewav]

I think The Collective are a nice bunch of players.

The exercise for you is to figure out how to moderate forums without "special treatment".

Vogue, you're way of line. I haven't talked to you in months. Your careless whispers are falling on deaf ears. Especially when Eckz and I just had a great conversation about moving on and not having beef. And hi is great, bellum is great, oppose is great, hello is great, where is amy pond?, akira's coo, izzi's rad, envy's super nice, and I don't really know fini. I don't know. Why you're making this all about me is beyond my simple mind's capability of understanding. Let's just move on?

[regiT]

WOW, this escalated since i last checked. hahaha.

Everyone just needs to chill.

Vogue, relax. Maybe we should share a bowl.

Leave Appa alone. Leave everyone alone.

If you want to pick a fight, blame me.

THIS IS ALL MY FAULT I TAKE THE CREDIT. BAN ME FROM FROM EVERYWHERE AND NEVER TALK TO ME AGAIN.

Everyone, just stop raging.

This is an arma forum. I think there might be more important things in life. Consider that, seriously.

I didn't notice, but keep it that way. And if you were so cool with everyone in the clan, this topic wouldn't have been made.

Especially when Eckz and I just had a great conversation about moving on and not having beef.

Oh yeah, the one where you told him you deliberately provoked some of us to get a response? How weird that there's "beef". The only reason that conversation was so great is because at least one person's mature but don't think anyone will forget how twofaced you and your friend are.

Says the person who started this whole thing because he was so concerned with the 'attitude' of a group of people in an online game.

NEVER TALK TO ME AGAIN.

No problem, I never do already.

[Z-Man]

Ah. So you wanted the thread locked to keep yourself and yourself only from posting crap. Fair enough, but I have a better, more reliable way in mind with precisely the desired effect and no side effects.

[Kijutsu]

Hey, don't crap first if you can't take the crap that comes with it. They've already privately admitted they did it to provoke, I'm just not putting up an innocence act.

If you're gonna ban me just do it, I don't care about your threats.

[Z-Man]

Yes. Because the slightest provocation needs to be answered with full force, and repeated apologies are automatically to be considered insincere and fake.

[regiT]

/vogue shoots herself in the foot.........with an rpg.

Since you've already made it VERY clear that you want absolutely nothing to do with us "two-faced" folk, why would we ever privately admit to trying to elicit a response?

I'm pretty sure I made it very clear, publicly, what my intentions were from the start.

I mean, do you even read what other people write? It seems you're simply taking excerpts of what others say, tagging them in your own post, and attempting to make everyone else look like the epitome of evil.

Please take some time away from your blindingly self destructive pattern here and realize that we are not trying to attack you, no matter how hard you bend the words in that direction.

[Z-Man]

Oh, sorry, forgot to say: liz is indeed banned for a bit now.

[Gonzap]

awwwwwww we will miss her

[INW]

Hopefully you banned all of the 20 accounts she has on here.

[sinewav]

awwwwwww we will miss her

Yeah I'm not so sure that ban was deserved. I think I would have reacted similarly. She only lashed out after repeated attempts to provoke. If anything, both parties should "get a time out" or the thread could just be locked with no bans.

Just my opinion.

[Eckz]

Z-man, I don't quite understand the ban on liz. I'm only posting cause she's one of my members, but honestly, you don't know the back story. I wouldn't expect you to either unless you've been flipping through server logs.

Appa and regiT would antagonize any collective member in hopes that we would lighten up and be more social with them and in turn the rest of the community--which we already are. This would start with them trying to provoke an argument. This has been nearly continuous when it came to interactions with them--even little taunts to nitpick at us. So, it isn't the slightest amount of provoking. I don't recall seeing you in the servers when the incidents happened, so you're basing it off of this one post.

Here, regiT started the argument and Liz responded and you ban her for it--even though she didn't, to my knowledge, retaliate in-game, nor did any other collective member. She's been good, but you can't expect hugs and kisses with people who talk behind our back and then to post a public display of something that tries to downplay our clan.

I've talked to both Appa and regiT in hopes to settle whatever drama was cause by their less-than-satisfying method of trying to get us to become a more sociable group with them and the community--which I wouldn't much care for now if it resulted in bans for getting upset about their approach.

Locking seems a bit late now, but whatever suffices the situation.
