I think we need to be more brutal to win hearts and minds.

It almost made me speechless and you know how difficult that is.

Yes, please. Sferrin and others have done even less for the thread, let alone the usual unsubtantiated tomfoolery in the Cyprus/Balkans threads. That other guy was being sarcastic, and I humbly submit he does not deserve the crown.

Doesn't it usually take more than one post to be a DotW? Especially one post from a long time member who's obviously making a sarcastic comment.

As you well know, as a spiritualist/healer I have to be completely at one with my emotions and the natural world to perform my gift. If I lose the cosmic bond mith myself, the I will no longer be able to cure CANCER or (cure) DEFORMED BABIES. I also deal with foot pain, it is a limited skill but it has it's uses nonetheless.

What have you done to help heal the world Macs? Nothing, that's what.

Weird...Fargin usually has good posts. That I've seen, anyways. Are you sure it wasn't sarcasm or something? Forgive me if I'm way off, I'm incredibly tired and my intelligence meter may be a little blurred :)

I was more than a little surprised myself.

I certainly agree there are some on that thread in particular who are arguably more deserving.

The thing is, I read the entire thread several times because it's so facinating and while Fargins post could be construed as sarcasm, there was no smiley.

In my mind a smiley is essential to denote sarcasm, etc. The example I'd give is a very ex STAB's post in reply to Fargins where he used a :) to show he was clearly taking the piss.

I will certainly consider bowing to popular demand and withdrawing the award with effusive apologies to the slandered party.

Yes, one off to your left. Roughly the same distance youve walked. Usually, by the time I had exited the launch, he would be calling me.

A smiley, when using sarcasm, is essential for an uneducated audience. It seems that those that have been here any length of time pretty much know Fargin's angle (as is evidenced in the posts, above).

I hereby return the award to you, Ngati, for requiring posters 'dumb down' their posts' writing with girly-ish smileys.

no smileys...

Read it in context. The entire post. That one sentence taken out of context DOES sound like banning material. That's what little ronnieraygun's problem was (actually I doubt he even read the entire post as he certainly didn't understand it- and then came here whining).

I got told off by DeltaWhisky58 for "Putting in a flame bait".

Seriously, it didnt mean it like that. Was just trying to comment the thread starters decision to name Fargin a dumbass :-(

Sometimes I think you (DeltaWhisky58) are a bit overzealous.

Fargin

10-26-2006, 03:43 PM

I wasn't being sarcastic.

...and if I were being sarcastic I sure wouldn't post any smileys. If you look at the dictionary's definition, smileys do not belong anywhere near true sarcasm. Why would one post a yellow happy face, when using black comedy? Look at my post in context and take my liberal european softcore mindset into consideration.

Ngati Tumatuenga if you conclude I was infact being sarcastic, you know who you have to nominate.

So you think it's retarded that I want the military to be able to fight the fight they way they think it ought to be done (whatever that may be)? You think it's retarded that I point out that it's impossible to know what's really going on over there because of media bias? So I take it you think the politicians know better than the military when it comes to fighting a battle and that you swallow what media has to say hook,line, and sinker?

No no, I agree:

Teh EVIL MEDIA tells LIES! It is ruled by JEWS..or wait..LIBERALS!! We must do what it takes to bring peace and that can only b done by BOMBING EVRYONE, WOOO!!!"

Look, it was just stupid. Ok? You can't seriously mean that slaughtering muslims would make them less pissed at anything the military does?

Which is why I said "Do I honestly want you guys to go out and start slaughtering Muslims indescriminantly? Of course not." in that same post. Did you read it? It doesn't look like it. Regardless, it's not worth a vacation to continue argueing it so why don't we just agree to disagree and leave it at that?
