i dont think it was truth, anyway.  bled would just constantly argue with truth/turkpimp in like every political topic ever and it was pretty annoying and i think turkpimp hated him enough to probably be the one to get him banned, not truth!  iirc it was that FUCK YOU FUCK YOUR GOD thing that finally just made someone (steel???) ban him.

he wasnt at all i dont think but he was LESS LIBERAL than steel/bled and kind of liked to play devil's advocate too probably so i mean he argued as much with bled as he did with truth, since i guess he was just about somewhere in between the two of them, one being radically conservative and the other radically liberal!

i remember you getting banned but i never knew truth was behind it! details please i was pretty oblivious to GW community stuff back then unless it involved CHIPSETS or whatever

Basically political topics were much more prevalent at GW back in the day, and even though everyone did their fair share of blasting each other I somehow gained this reputation as the ONE GUY who likes to argue all the time.  It got so bad that Bart edited and locked my custom title to something like "I am king of the internets i like to argue about EVERYTHING." 

For those of you who didn't know or weren't surprised to find out that he is currently campaigning to get a democrat in the senate, Truth used to be ultra-tits-in-your-face-conservative.  He and this other guy (videogamer3x or videogamer3000 or some shit) used to have these masturbatory girltalk sessions in which they would make these outlandish claims about the bible and president Bush.  They were my mortal enemies and there was literally about a YEAR of debate that ensued.

After Bart edited my account, Truth apparently realized that mods/admins were sorta keeping an eye on me.  He set up some topic (that I don't remember anything about) with the sole intent of saying some ridiculous shit that he knew would raise my blood pressure.  I took the bait and I guess someone within the administration decided that it was a good time to ban me, thus ending my perilous reign of terror.

Probably the most memorable thing that ever happened was Truth's GOD BLESS AMERICA thread on memorial day.  Something got me going and one of my replies was something along the lines of "Fuck your country, fuck your president, and fuck your god that you use to justify the senseless killings."  This later was changed by Truth and I couldn't post anywhere without him quipping FUCK YOUR GOD FUCK YOUR BUSH at me.

So yeah that's how it happened.

EDIT:  Oh yeah I hated Turkpimp too, but that subsided when I thought he/she died.  I didn't find out that that was a joke until a couple of weeks ago, and now my emotions are just sort of tattered.

For every moment of triumph, for every instance of beauty, many souls must be trampled.

Hahah, TFT, that post is awesome.

What was the whole deal with Legion? I pretty much missed out on all the INTERNET HISTORY so what was his problem in general?

I'm usually not very reactionary on the net, the worst I'll do is throw a few swear words up so people blowing up or generally being gigantic dicks is pretty funny! I'm sure I'll do something really dumb some day though, it's bound to happen as I get older and more jaded.

i'm new to irc and i go on there sometimes. people like to say things to me like "you are retarded" and "you're th e one whos dead"

i guess i'm just nott hardcore enough. but i won't slit my wrists over it because i know half of them are drunk. typing stuff into the computer while intoxicated is really cool and funny, so i know when they insult me they don't really hate me.

actually i have no idea what the fuck i'm saying

#G&D is fun place to be. i can have lice there and they'll let me stay. no rules

One thing I really dislike about the Internet is that it suddently seems to enable everyone to be an asshole without any repercussions because "it's teh internetz, lulz". I've actually read a few articles on how some people think the internet is (unintentionally, of course) conditioning people to be rude assholes because they can get away with it behind a screen.

Really, think about it; how many possibly rude or mean things have you said something on the Internet that you knew you wouldn't be able to get away with it otherwise? How many times has this been done to you?

This is very true and it kinda exposes a lot of people who enjoy being dicks but put on a facade in real life.

I try to treat people online like I would in real life (I'm probably a lot nicer than in real life a lot of the time, even) but this isn't really a conscious decision, I just don't get a kick out of being a wanker like a lot of people seem to!

Also I hate calling it 'real life' but I can't think what else to call it. I guess that kinda reinforces the whole "teh internet is not real!" thing.

haha you mean VideogamerX2, Bled. I talk to him occasionally on MSN, I wish he'd come back to GW lands! He thought about coming back some time ago but never did (like, he popped up on irc once). He's a swell dude!

I don't think I take what happens on the internet very seriously other than like, my drawing and creative stuff and whatnot. I try to take internet arguments with a grain of salt, though on the other hand I try not to be a ddddick. I sometimes have a hard time knowing how to react when SHIT SUDDENLY GOES REAL like when someone I only know on the Internet tells me about crazy or depressing personal stuff happening to them RIGHT NOW, which happens to me very often for some reason.
I don't really mind people talking about tough crazy shit that happened in the past, because I mean, its behind them now, my reaction isn't that important. But when the story is something happening right now, I fear that if I react badly, it could make things worse. So typically I am sort of evasive of such things and try to ask questions or just listen to the story without commenting. I guess I'm not a verrry good listener (or maybe I'm doing it right actually!)

good point.
though i don't really make good posts here and don't care that much about people linking xkcd so i'm just postin crap again.

I think people shouldn't really be too much sensitive on the internet, really. It's just going to make you more depress. I sometime upset by some stupid on the internet but now I've learned to let it go. There's really no use in arguing because most of them won't read. It isn't like having a real conversation where you can explain any ambiguity in your message. Less arguing, more game making :P

Anyway, I agree with Feldschlacht IV. I hate it when people are rude on the internet and their excuse is "LOLZ ITZ DA INTRENET"

And Brandon, just so you know that if that ever happen to you again, you always have a place to stay in Thailand :)

I don't take the internet seriously at all. I don't know these people...they don't know me. What could they possibly say that would ruin the rest of my day?

I treat people online the same way I treat people in my everyday life. Unless someone wants to argue with me, then I'll say really vile things just for the hell of it, but I never start those.

maladroithim, what did he say to you? i have to know!!!!!!

Also most of the time stuff doesn't bother me, but when some guy posted a video about mkkmypet recently, I got really, really mad. Most of the time I blow this stuff off or think it's funny, but this is disgusting and horrible and this guy is a real piece of shit. Everything is wrong with this person. He's sexualizing a twelve year old. He's a sexist and is targeting her because she's a girl. He thinks this is funny. haoeirthaoerithaoierthoa most of these gamesmasterjasper guys I just find kind of dumb, but I think this guy is garbage.
wow that is pretty shit!

but also on a sidebar, i never knew mkkmypet grew up like that (not a sexual comment!!). idk i remembered her first joining and being shy-ish or at least i think. then i knew she started doing understanding the weirdness of GW but i never knew that she grew up and started posting SEMPER GAMES type youtube videos and stuff. haha.

:EDIT:

Back when TFT/SL/Magi seemed to be going out of their way to ruin my e-rep in the old G&D forums once or twice I remained mad even after I was done browsing GW, which I consider a pretty emotional response given the emotional investment I make in this place!

It wasn't even what they were saying, it was how unrelenting the flaming was and how unchecked it was! One time I read some GW really late at night and there was some particularly untrue and groundless slander and I went to bed angry and didn't sleep well!

edit: Also yeah this whole mykkpet business is fucking gross and ridiculous! But I think that is a more basic "protect children" response than anything internet related.

I laugh at the arguements that come in forums, youtube, and other internet discussing places. I always get a kick out of it, but usually I end the conversation if they plan on using insults like "You have the brain capacity of a fucking 3rd grader." etc. Then I usually end the conversation, cause I don't feel like dealing with flamers.

But on occasion I'll have some fun by just pissing the individual off... (if he really deserves it, I'm not a person to target a random internet browser.)

In short, I laugh at other people's suffering besides my own!
