[quote name='Aaryanna_Mom']:animesigh What do they teach kids these days? Allamorph's post doesn't even come close to an essay and took me all of about five minutes to read. And please, even though it's a game there's no need to insult him by saying he's not a good poster.[/quote] I don't want to beat this one point to death or seem too hostile here, but after reading this, I thought that my mind had played tricks on me and that maybe my memory was making me exaggerate the length of his post. But, upon re-reading it, I just do not know where you are coming from. I have a BA in English; I have written [I]plenty[/I] of essays. Allamorph's post took up five pages in Microsoft Works, single-spaced, without the quotes, with a size ten font. If I converted his post to the typical MLA format, it would probably be about ten pages. My entire point (and everyone seems to be missing it) is that it should not take that many words to argue this idea. [quote]In the end both sides are whining and stomping their feet's. Lets not forget that.Why? We go elsewhere for all sorts of services or products. Somewhere you need to draw the line and quit adding things to a site. It makes sense, to keep things from becoming too cluttered. If people really love hentai so much why would they want a site that would barely touch it when they could go to one that specialized in covering it? There's nothing stopping any of you from having a non x rated thread and discussing different shows that you like.[/quote] Not exactly. I will agree that some people on our side have been a little brash, but there is one aspect of this entire discussion that I find hilarious, even still. The opposing side to this debate constantly cries that our side is being too serious, or that we are losing interest, or that we should simply go somewhere else for hentai (which contradicts the very point of an anime message board), or that the entire argument is one-sided, or that there is no chance in hell of the suggestion ever being considered for OtakuBoards. I would say that the only thing that is one-sided is a bit of arrogance in that last statement. As Semjaza said, it is easy to sit back and argue to keep things the way they are, while saying that a new idea has no chance of ever being adopted; it is much harder to convince people who have no intention of wanting to be convinced despite whatever logic is thrown at them. While your side of the debate is "no longer having fun," yet constantly posting, we are bringing up valid points that are continuously being glossed over When we bring up silly points like "fapping" while surfing OB, it is argued as if it were a serious point. lol Whether or not we will ever have such a forum is not what tickles me-- fact that we are establishing a better argument here is what surprises me most of all. [quote]You're right I did complain about that. And no your right I was not aware. But while we are at it. Even though this is suppose to be part of an RPG. My claiming he was slaughtered was meant to be in character. Right now I'm going to go out of character. Even if it's meant to be fun. It has ceased to be fun. We need to declare a winner of this thread and move on. Perhaps it's the topic, perhaps it's because people are coming across as being to serious. Either way. This for me is no longer fun at all. :animesigh[/QUOTE] I mainly brought that up because you mentioned Premonition's slaughter more than once within the discussion. You referred to our argument as a "mob mentality." I was merely disspelling that argument. And as I said, no one is being forced to post in this thread right now; I mean that in the nicest way possible. If you are not having fun, do not post in the thread and let it die. I honestly think that it's the people lamenting over how serious others are that are coming off as the most serious here. lol Come on Aaryanna_Mom, give me a hug. :catgirl:
