The thread varies from night to night. Also, some of our other members were absent, and we did not have much of a topic to leeway into.

Tell me about it.
Well, I'm trying to coax Goat into saying why he hates Tali's loyalty mission. But he says the thread isn't serious enough for that discussion.

Wha?  I'm not sure what to be more offended by:  Goat's dislike of the mission or his consideration of us as unserious.

Gotta check in on my peeps before bed.

Glad to see you thinking of us.

That and there was a flareup of biological child nonsense earlier today.  Need to make sure that stuff gets quashed.

Marriage doesn't suit me.

Stomping people like you into the muck, though? I could do that forever.

Then I have the perfect Latin ending for every post you ever post, ever...

Cato the Elder used to end every speech of his to the Senate, on any subject whatsoever, with the following sentence: Ceterum censeo Carthaginem esse delendam.  ((Apart from that, Carthage must be destroyed.))

So, if we replace Carthage with the Latin approximation of Cerberus (Kerberos)), we have your perfect signature:

Ceterum censeo Kerberoium esse delendam.

Seeing the last page, serious is hardly an applicable term to describe the thread right now. I imagine that is what may have been thought of when that was said.

On that much, we will always agree.

Thanks for the sentiment, but my sig is kinda full.

Made me laugh at least.

Please, as if you can judge a thread by any one page.

In the interest of starting discussion, I have this query:



At the end of Tali's loyalty mission and during her trial, you have to choice of whether to withhold the evidence of her father's experiments, or to let the evidence be known.



If you withhold the evidence, you're not telling the Quarian public of the war crimes conducted by someone of their government. Don't they deserve to know?



Let's answer why it is or is not moral to withhold the evidence without resorting to "It's Tali"

Looking back through, I saw Korn mentioned.  Meh.  I saw them in concert once and basically every other band I saw that night was better.  Then again, they were facing off against Powerman 5000, System of a Down, and Metallica.

It's not as if that page was deviating from what happens often. People expressing their fantasies about video game characters isn't exactly rare in this thread. You may imagine why those things may give the impression that the thread is not serious or does not really want to have a serious discussion.

Powerman 5000 and Metallica are masters of their craft.

Korn? I never much cared for their music.

Kind of full?  You mean your full on Banner with an extended right side so you can break the resizing apparatus that this board runs?

Thats the kind of advertising that I can respect.

But it's not the average viewer wandering in without knowing.  It's freaking Goat.  He's sat through a crapload of discussions here.

Are we talking about the biological children debate again? Or another discussion I missed?

So have I, to some agree there is some truth in what he said. I appear to have been lucky enough to catch more of the more intelligent discussions in this thread than he has, though. Goat and I seem to have several opinions regarding displayal of personal fantasies in this thread.

Let's answer why it is or is not moral to withhold the evidence without resorting to "It's Tali"

Quarian society lacks political ties, political parties, or any form of direct representation.  As such, "leaders" in their "government" generally act according to their own motives.  Thus, Rael's death does not reflect on anyone politically, economically, or socially.  His actions were his own, as were his motives.

By releasing the information, you damage the psyche and reputation of a productive member of quarian society (Tali).  By keeping the information, you hurt noone besides those already dead, and this does not matter as I outlined above.

As such, I see it as more useful, and actually more inline with the communal nature of quarian society, to withhold the information.

I know.  I think it was System that opened.  Serj came out dressed like Castro in short shorts and announced quite loudly that the satanic bunny rabbits were going to eat everyone.  And then they rocked.
