See ya

This forum used to be fun.We had our differences, but there was a core of commonsense and a rough adherence to the guidelines.

Lately it has become too one sided to be worthwhile.A few trolls who would rather stir shit than argue the points have taken over every topic.

I'm not interested in puting up arguments against these people any more.They have decided to take it personally that I don't like their President, and make utterly moronic claims about me being anti-American.

Well here's the thing.I've found a couple of other political forums where the redneck element with their fractured thinking and love of abuse haven't wrecked the debate.Democrats, Republicans, andnon-Americans can have a decent yarn about current affairs without resorting to the kind of crap that goes on here.

For those of you who like to bray at me, congratulations.I'm off. Carry on your circle jerk without me. Bush remains an asshole.I've got nothing against you guys personally, I'd just rather have a debate than sit here prodding the primates and laughing when they screech.

Its a competative circle jerk. From what I hear, one of the guys claimed to have come in first and third.

Codycool- yeah the Royal Navy doesn't run but the SS Minnow and Gilligan do.


I guess he's just as his little quote says, disillusioned.

Re: See ya

it could be your "I'm right and you are wrong and everything you say is nonsense because I know what I'm talking about" attitude which causes people to bray at you. I am also a fan of debate but you have an assholish aura when you think your opinion is correct. I have never seen you acknowledge that other peoples opinions hold any value. Other than saying, "You have your opinion and I have mine, and I'm still right." basically. I've never liked debating with you because of that.

But he can't stand it when other people use his tactics so he's going to another forum where people are too "mature" to do that, and he can feel like he wins because they don't hit back with low blows when he does. Its alright, the political discussions are better off without someone who can't handle the same plate he dishes to everyone else.

Re: See ya

What the bloody hell's been going on? I take a six month break (oh, thanks Taranaki, I needed that..., really...) and you're threatening to quit this forum? It ain't going to be the same without your pretty interesting view on things. Don't give up, man! Don't admit that you were proven wrong by the likes of me and others who think like me!

Proven wrong? Oh, let's see, Bush was re-elected (he stole this one fair and square), I still have MY RIGHT TO BEAR ARMS, the Iraq War II is going better than expected even by Republican standards, the US hasn't collapsed into itself morally and economically as expected by foreign pukes, etc., etc., ad nauseum...

Sincerely, though, Taranaki, you will be missed by sh*t-stirrers and honest-to-goodness debaters alike.

Regards,
Franko914

typical naki comment.

heres my re iteration... "People used to just let me win, but now you all challenge me, and I dont like that. You can all circle jerk without me you immature primates. I would rather have a debate with people who don't call names."

It seems somebody has a hard time dealing with other peoples' opinions. I always wondered if I was the only one who saw taranaki as the "self righteous hypocritical abusive big brother" type. I guess I wasn't.

It wouldn't come to this Naki, but you asked for it. You boast your views as correct, and when people disagree you get mad and put them down because "they don't know anything", and accuse them of only bashing your opinion with moronic claims. Oh well. You aren't wrong, the world is.
