Popular Post Sweeeeet Ronny D Posted October 11, 2017 Popular Post Share Posted October 11, 2017 Listen guys, I can live with the name calling, the trolling, the getting hit for no reason, but for the love of god, if only one good thing comes out of this war, the shorthand for Grumpy Old Bastards is Grumpy, not GOB. We all can do better don't you agree? 10 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sans Posted October 11, 2017 Share Posted October 11, 2017 (edited) 22 hours ago, Spaceman Thrax said: While you did bring that up, Sparta didn't have anything to do with that idea not going far. I didn't say they did. But the fact is it didn't go through and we still work in a bipolar system as a result. And in a bipolar system, alliances are going to react a certain way as rational actors. 22 hours ago, Partisan said: It's not entirely intellectually honest to preemptively leverage your brief and theoretical championing for change as a PR shield for any action that is or isn't to be undertaken in the indefinite future during incidents (including parties) that are unrelated to said initiative. An interesting excercise though. Missing the point, not blaming Sparta for that initiative being unsuccessful.And while they are not to blame, the result of that initiative was a decision to keep the status quo and in that status quo, rational actors will do what they will. 22 hours ago, LeotheGreat said: Who could have guessed that the multi-sphere idea would be used as a PR weapon while TKR actions literally work against it. I am sooo shocked right now. I don't recall us acting on anything. But while we did and still do call for substantive change of the system while we are in the current system that many folks seen content to remain in and in that system we will take steps defend ourselves. I do not get how you can call someone out for asking for substantive change while you oppose it and then criticize their actions when they act in the present system you fought hard to retain. If you want a world where people can have smaller scale wars without interference why not help us make that environment because right now, it is not that kind of environment. If you are asking us to do it unilaterally, its not going to happen. For clarification, I am not blaming any one individual. Lots of folks disagreed with it, but when you disagree on the concept and then criticize if/when someone acts because of said disagreement, it comes off as contradictory. Edit: In addition, I'd like to point out I did not call out BK directly. Why do you feel the need to do so to TKR? Is the cynicism so much that you just can't help spilling it out in public?

You hide from answering questions after you make yourself look like a fool, and then you come out here months afterwards and talk about winning hearts. Are you ok? Go the !@#$ back and make yourself look like a fool again when it is your turn to feel like you are "bored" and that everyone else is just "infra hugging" Edited October 11, 2017 by Ebeezy 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe if you guys actually would be truthful for once instead of being full of crap all the time people (other than those that depend on you for security) might believe something you say. Or are you so paranoid that you actually believe all the lies you tell? You are the only ones building up so where is this credible threat? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
