I have seen a LOT of topics that I truly wanted to reply to lately. IMO alot of them were locked due to flame wars.I also enjoy watching the insults fly; I'd like to suggest that if anybody finds themselves warring that they invite their "opponent" to "Step outside" and both come to this thread to continue their "debate", leaving the OT  unsullied and giving the rest of us a chance to laugh, take sides and generally have a good read.

 

Mods, if this isn't a proper way to handle things please say so.

By making this effort, you can often elicit more positive responses from the community, and instantly mark yourself as someone worth talking to.

Nah not for realz. Kyoto never did ask for his original post count back when the board format changed during one of the exodus'. I think he was posting as "Mistah new yawk" at that time...no wait....he was posting as "Kyoto Sensai". Yeah thats it. A fresh new start and all that.

Still that would make Kyoto as the "Spammer Supreme" with an accumulated 16K+ posts with malfred and bugswarm narrowly behind him.

or, maybe Russ reset his post count to avoid the destruction of dakka.

Kyoto-sama is, after all, THE Destroyer of Board(s). He needs no more forums to meet their untimely demise at his blood and gore covered hands, hence his deceptively low postcount.

But isn't there already a place where mutants can roam free, revel in their degeneracy as they explore the ocular portals of wayward visitors and worship at the altar of Chinesus?

My question is: if you're walking, but not in a park, with some guys (or even one guy), that's not gay, right? Right?
