If you were banned, that doesn't mean get back on when the new update comes out. No one said that all bans would be lifted on release, so why should they be?
I'm sure Sam will ban everyone he knows has evaded the ban, so don't use the excuse that "Well, others need to be banned" as an excuse of why you should be allowed to play. Can I commit a crime, and go to court using the offense that others have committed the same crime before me to save myself from lawful punishment?

Huh? Me and Exodus aren't doing anything wrong. Just, you know, trying to improve the mood and without trolling, insulting, or otherwise defaming anyone. I was actually going to post another self help article, but I have to find a good one that's appropriate to the situation.

@post 52 I believe the the post which you are reacting to is merely red herring. No worries

Lol. My response in post 52, for those who miss it because of the lack of ability to convey tonality through text, is completely sarcastic. And because I hate one-sentence posts, I'll go on to explain that, despite literary protestations, I will refute that oranges are indeed the only fruit. They're the only fruit that combine all these qualities into one:

  • They can be peeled without a knife, as the skin in most circumstances neatly separates from the flesh of the fruit.

  • After being peeled, they are the only fruit that then requires more peeling, unless you're a savage and enjoy eating the fibrous gunk that remains attached to the flesh of the fruit. This means they're a fruit that encourages exercise, since you're constrained to performing double duty.

  • They're the only fruit which provides a paradoxical conundrum in their naming. Despite being called an orange, they are typically green, and often are induced into the "orange" appearance per force (such as exposure to various gases to destroy the remaining chlorophyll).

  • Oranges provide further literary complications for writers, as the brevity of their rhyming possibilities means that, a poet whose bread and butter is a line of works based around this fruit will quickly starve.

  • They come in varying flavours, ranging from very sweet to almost a lemony sour. Most other fruits don't have this expanse of personality!

  • And, above all, oranges make perfect pants-filling materials for men like myself who want to downplay their endowment.

So there you are, just a few reasons why, contrary to literary assertions, oranges really are the only fruit.

Two things. One this is the only rapidfire fact post I'll make. Secondly, those weren't just random facts. Our good friend Guillem has hired a facts analytic whom resides in Arch City, on a Raspberry Pi in the Linux Republic. Namely, a Twitter bot that is a facts scrambler. So if some of these facts either don't make sense or are more hilarious than your average facts, that's the point. It scrambles part of a fact with another fact to make never before known facts! lol Anyway, I'm done with that.

For guys complaining about the OT posters I did for a second to, but either way, there is this lovely key on your keyboard, called the h key. It you know, skips to the next post? Either way. Andreas will not play anonymously guys. Sorry Andreas, my code, my game. I can tell when it's you. For example, your quote on quote anonymous name, was Falcon. He won't play anonymously guys, quite sure of it.

@Lord Lundin: It's sad to see that you're one of the very few people who never learn from your mistakes. Even not some good advice can make you on the right track. Your posts in this topic clearly shows how smart you are. Previously, I had some respect for you because a lot of posts from you on the forum are really nice. But after this drama where you'll continue to be one of the worst troublemakers ever, my respect for you has quickly gone to 0... I'll personally never care about you anymore, and I'll completely ignore you, forever!
I wish you a great life as a troublemaker...

Best regards SLJ.

Honestly, in a childish topic like this... Yes, I called it childish, I hardly believe there is anything such as off topic.  Were we discussing the fate of the world or even, dare I say it, Donald Trump, we'd be discussing an actual topic.  this is a bunch of argumentative nonsense that I somewhat expect from my children in a couple of years, which has resulted in this topic being useful preparation.  I thank you all for your time and donation but would encourage those of you who are taking it exceptionally seriously to, as we in the alter aeon community like to say, take it outside!

This guy has had a history of trolling/pissing people off even on AA. He admits he has issues, but does nothing about them.

Back this up with the way he acts when he doesn't get what he wants?Sam, I don't know you, but you're doing the right thing.

That said, however, the idea of self-policing is a sticky one. I'm not against it, and Sam, I think you should at least consider, in certain circumstances, being willing to rewrite or flex the letter of the law if your self-policer was doing more good than harm. There is something to be said for the argument of "I was honestly trying to help in the only way I knew how". In this case, I think your decision was justified more because of Andreas's conduct overall than because he broke your rule.

Andreas, Nocturnis pegged you pretty solidly. There's really not much else to say. You may have had good intentions at the start - I say "may" because frankly I don't know - but they were quickly overshadowed by your attitude. If I had been the one to ban you, I'd have done precisely what Sam did. If I had been thinking of weakening, your attitude here on the forum would've made me metaphorically lock the door and throw away the key, at least for the foreseeable future. Someone who wants to do as they please with no regard for the rules is not someone who deserves to play the game. End of story.

And don't worry, folks. I'm not angry, upset or anything like that. I'm just chiming in beccause I can.

But here are a few random facts for you.

1. A duck's quack doesn't echo, and no one knows why.

2. It is anatomically impossible for a human to lick the outside of their elbow.

3. William Shakespeare endowed Julius Caesar with the anachronism of a striking clock. In Caesar's time, striking clocks were not invented.

4. Water pressure at the bottom of the ocean can pulverize diamonds.

5. It used to be illegal in Nebraska for barbers to eat onions between 7 a.m. and 7 p.m.

Lol. See? Nocturnus gets it. Those of us who are posting off topic facts and such are really just trying to point out how ridiculous this drama post is, and possibly those affected by it as well. I realize I could've spelled this out in my initial post, but I feel like whenever I right insightful, helpful posts, they're just ignored because of my sesquipedalian proclivity.

I see how this is a childish topic. I only posted is because I wanted the first word in the matter, andreas was going to post but I said I wanted to first, he agreed. Me and this forum have history as many people know, and I don't wanna do the wrong thing.

2017-02-14 20:55:14

I wouldn't call it the wrong thing, and as I pointed out in post 15, it's not technically against the rules.  What's more, how the blazes would we enforce such a rule anyway?  You'd be left at the mercy of moderators or the mercy of those hitting the report button, both of which would require some sort of bias.

This whole topic reminds me of an episode of full house. You know that 1 episode where family drama is going on and Joey is watching tranquility tapes?
Anyways, Lord Lundin, I'm sorry, but I can't see anymore redeemable qualities in your posts. You need to grow up and learn to treat people with respect. I remember when I used to be the exact same way that you are now, and I learned from it, why I do believe I've said things that the mods had to call me out on. And trust me, I can tell you from experience, you'll be in for a life of hell if you don't straiten your act up and learn how to get along with other people. I've said and done so many bad things in my life that I can't even begin to count. And you know what? I'm certainly paying for it, and it sucks. I really hope you consider this message, and guys, please tell me if I'm crossing the line with this post.

lol the only reason Sam would know about Falcon is because that's the exact same configuration I later used with Andreas. Wouldn't take a genious to trace characters done by that same identifier or whatever Sam calls his identification system.
if he  knew it from Before he would've banned me much earlier and not wait like 2 Days, and only when I was using Andreas.

@nocturnus the topic is certainly not random lists with random facts, you are inteligent enough to know this. If it's going to be a drama topic, let it stay on the topic of the drama in question.

From what I can see, it's unbalanced drama, because you're really the only 1 causing it. Everyone else is calling you out on your actions. I'm not gunna reply to this topic anymore, I don't have the time to waste on it and I see I'm not getting anywhere in trying to convince you to grow up or at least apologize, so I'm just gunna leave it with this. You're not going to get your way by acting in this manner, and I seriously hope I see some changes to your behavior.

I wasn't really planning on saying anything here, seeing how I've tried to not have anything to do with Andreas for a good while now, for reasons that should be obvious.
Either way, telling him that he needs to grow up will not help. For one, it's pretty vague (and yes, I've told him myself a few times, along with other, and probably better worded, advice), and secondly, he already knows and has for years, and nothing has changed.
It really shouldn't come as a surprise that he'd start something like this, considering his history in other games/on here. He doesn't exactly have the nicest way of talking/treating people that he doesn't like, to put it mildly. At this point I don't really have anything to say that might help, it's all been said before throughout the last handful of years, he just needs to do the Work and use what he's been given.
If I were in his shoes I'd probably Work on getting professional help though, although I believe he has gone that route before, and seemingly nothing changed. Therapists and what have you aren't all alike though, so keep on trying.

If my two cents are welcome here, this topic was a huge red flag for me when I read the title, and going through it only confirmed this.
What set it off for me was the fact it says,

Heroes need foes to test them. Not all teachers can afford to be kind, and some lessons must be harsh.

2017-02-16 14:57:41

This is exactly the reason I largely stopped playing redspot a short time ago. Now, I only see myself logging on on the beta server, if new updates are ever released to test out the new whatevers and add them to the guide. Other than that, I'm pretty much done with the game, that is until all the drama is sorted out and no new one comes along, and until the balance of power is restored because the way things are right now is downright rediculous.
