Dude -- Kain's a fucking idiot.  And a dick.  Fuck him.

/2cp.

Hey hey hey...

We're not allowed to agree on things, remember?  :lmao


Oops -- sorry about that ... I was thinking that we'd moved past that.   Hmmm -- well, if that's the case ....

Okay, I recant my last post -- Kain is awesome, and everything that Ejo says is idiotic bullshit.
 :D

Is that better?

Ah, the good old days... ;) I needed something familiar after being accosted by that thread...

Seriously... the fact that Kain's argument rested on "Even though the book doesn't say why there would be exceptions beyond that whole 'feel free to change the rules thing,' it doesn't say that there aren't exceptions, so that rule doesn't apply"...

It just... Logical failures of that magnitude cause me physical pain...

Can we shy away from ranting about other boards and their admin? Meg hasn't changed that policy as far as I'm aware, not since the original Logic Fail threads got axed, and I'd rather not have this thread end up in a similar position.

I'm only ranting about one person. Didn't know that that's also forbidden.

I know you like to obsessively troll people you don't like, but there's a better solution in simply removing yourself from discussions with problem people.

I did remove myself from that forum. Now I'm trying to went in a thread that's created for that purpose. By you. So, with all due respect, fuck off. I'm trying to take your wisdoms to heart, even those rude ones, but I'm having troubles with that, seeing as you go out of your way to insult me.

No, but it has devolved very quickly. Ranting about one person is what got Ubernoob banned at the old forum.

That said; vent freely, just keep it under control. I know the odds of that particular person finding your posts about him in this thread are nil, but keep the flames about other forums to a birthday candle's size, ok? The main thing that should be avoided is turning this thread into another redux of the Logic Fail threads.



I'm actually going to be very lenient about this particular instance too. I know I shouldn't, but that guy does not deserve the authority he wields. At least Berlew has the capacity for logical debates.

I was watching myself to not crap on his forum, only on him. And I mentioned names only after asked.
But I wasn't expecting (or intending) to do a discussion about it, so you people can ignore my post, I just wanted to do a quick rant.

The other day I alter selfed into a wraith (as a necropolitan). The DM said that incorporeality is not a gross physical trait and ruled I would be only a floating sheet. One of the other players came to my defense, crying out that a lack of physical features is a gross physical feature.

When the DM said that using a 2nd-level spell to become incorporeal would be too broken, the player's defense for me was, "But alter self is ALREADY broken! It's the most broken 2nd-level spell in the game!"
:nonono
Thanks, bub, for that argument.

I don't want to know what the sounds from the garden last night were. It sounded like someone had put a stable of horses into a mainly soundproofed room and then set them on fire.  Bet it was foxes. A litter of new, hideous, screaming, bin-scoffing urban foxes
Something inside me dies when I see the word fallacy applied to ideas held about roleplaying. And a small bit of vomit comes up when I see a character called a 'toon'.

Speaking of odd noises, I remember laying in bed one time when I heard this godawful sound coming from just outside my window.  It took a few seconds, but I realized it was a couple cats.  Sounded like they were fighting, and knowing cats they could easily go a couple seconds or a minute.  About half a minute later it annoys me enough that I open my window curtains to see what's going on...  Lo and behold, they're copulating.  I sit there for a couple seconds going "WTF?" before rapping on the window.  They both jumped a couple feet in the air and scampered.

Seriously, ebrary Reader? Why in the name of all that is written do I have to specify page numbers using roman numerals when I want to skip ahead when you clearly display the result using good ol' arabic numerals?

Quote from: Kain
You're an idiot. It's pointless to argue with you, so I'll just point out your mistakes so that no one else reading this is led astray.

Sounds like a smart guy to me. Or if he is an idiot, he's not completely hopeless. Of course I only read the first paragraph. And that's all I care to say about it.

If you read the whole thing (or even just the preceding couple of pages, and then the next few posts), you can really see the irony in that particular statement.
just sayin'.
