Maybe we need more smurfings.

I was always fond of that method, but apparently it upset a few folks, so I don't smurf as often.

Smurf you, Bug Boy! ~gets the bug zapper out~


Noretoc reports what sounds like a truly annoying situation, and I didn't see the thread, but I think we should respect original intentions.

Until, of course, it's time to be silly. Then, either make relevant humor as we have here, or smurf it: smurf it good.

Hey now! There's no need to be putting down badgers or butterfrogs!

What's that? I forgot the kobolds? Two out of three ain't bad...

Is irrelevant humor ok, so long as it includes smurf?

I didn't get the smurf on this page memo...so embarrassed.

Edit: Smurf!

I barely smurfing post on the political threads anymore. That should have smurfing raised the level of discourse fifty, sixty degrees of smurfing niceness!

And I get smurfette with a butterfly. Smurfing great...


The blue gnomes will come to the aid of their badger allies!

Smurfs, attack!

Rigs a trebuchet to give the dragon a wedgie.

Liberty's Edge Contributor, RPG Superstar 2012

Much obliged, my blue friend!

If that won't teach the dragon some civility, manners, and goodwill, I don't know what will.

Your desire to be assimilated is irrelevant.


Imitation is the sincerest form of roboflattery. Now, hand over the one you call 7of9 and no one gets hurt.

Your postcount is underwhelming. Your cell is a subunit of my subunit's projected node. STFU noob.

Big deal. It doesn't get more hostile than that place, unless, maybe, if we're talking about an actual war zone.

I disagree.

Actual combat zones can be more civil the the WoTC boards.

Your face does. It fails at being not ugly. Oh, how it fails.

If my dog's face was that ugly, I'd shave his add and teach it to walk backwards.

Plus, your mother eats sauce powder as candy.

ahh so glad to see I could send this thread crashing down


I am going to have to disagree for the most part.
I was listening to 'Fear the boot' and they said this

"Yeah I heard about this guy pulling a gun in one game after something happened and one of the players distracted him enough to get the gun off him."
"Yeah but that guy had bagage will before he started playing the game you get enough people playing the game and these people will turn up"
"yeah" and other similar yes noises in chorus.

Text can't be inflected with emotion so often people just read it in.
Just something we do, can't really help it were human.
There is someone I very much dislike on this boards (my problem) but I recognize that I am bias so one time I was reading this discussion and I was think it was little to intense so I got a reader program which reads the stuff sat down with a book and listened as I read.

That guy I have a problem with guess who I was agreeing with and I come over the computer at this point wonder whos this guy....

It happens.
But I do think there are some rude people out there, perhaps your topics have just seen an influx of new rude faces.
Or perhaps your dealing with loud minorities.
Whatever the case is that has led you to your current belief.
I am sorry but I respectfully disagree.

We can all agree that D&D had nothing to do with that. If D&D had anything to do with that guy's cuckoo, he'd have drawn a sword. Or tried to cast a death spell. ;-)

For future reference: When reading what I write, imagine the rudest, most insulting and degrading way you could interpret what I write. My actual intentions aren't anything like that.

They're much, much worse.

I very much recommend not doing that. You get things mixed up in your head. You read something half-immersive, you don't consciously hear what the computer reads to you. But your sub-conscious hears just fine. And associates it with whatever you write.

And then, years later, when asked what your favourite part was in Lord of the Rings, you say: "The part where Gandalf tells Saruman a noob for choosing the generalist wizard over a specialist."

Well, it's almost always vocal minorities. Not just on boards. Everywhere.

Sometimes, you stumble into a vocal minority's headquarters, and they turn into a sort of majority.

Of course, the majority of people here is quite well-behaved (i.e. more courteous than me by far), but as always, those few people who are rude can make themselves seem more. Just like some animals can make themselves seem bigger.

So call animal control and we're golden.


~sighs sadly~ Ok. Fine! You all want me to be rude. Then I will be rude!

STFU n00bs.

~grins~


Well, if things get out of hands, I will just call the internet cops.

j/k, of course

Actual combat zones can be more civil the the WoTC boards.

We find it prudent to be civil when everyone is carrying a loaded weapon. :)

Does having wand of fireball (50 charges) on my character sheet count as 'carrying a loaded weapon'? 'Cause, if so, be very, very civil.

Well, no, because you see, you aren't actually your character. Some people have trouble keeping these things separate. :P

We can strip away the flawed persona
We can rebuild you
We can make you useful

We also have a great health plan

This existence is inherently flawed, anyway.

We're trying to get that fixed.

Your collective will be unmade along with the rest of this multiverse.
