I already stated I got the satire but some of  the points in the quoted comments rang true. I asked for a bit of help in understanding what she/he meant and got the stable rude treatement with an actual clarification coming 2 pages later.

Respect and dignity: It is nice to see how you treat someone that didn't board the joke train the sametime you did.

Dude, you walked from the porch into the yard without looking and stepped in a gigantic pile of dog****. Some people will laugh at you for stepping in doggy doo. Some won't.

Welcome to the interwebz...

Having a laugh about it is cool. Inferring I deserve less respect or dignitiy because of a mistake is over the line.

Dude, you messed up my quote to make it seem like I said something I didn't say. Didn't you just complain about that being done to you? :blink:

I didn't comment on 5 as that was clearly a joke.
Numbers 1-4, don't read as jokes. 1 and 3 are things people are talking about openly even in this thread not for the /lol.

Don't craft fictional quotes I didn't make.

Then don't craft my posts to mean two things at the same time.


Misinterpreting words is a mistake. I asked several times for you to clarify but it took 2 pages before you explained to me all the ideas were jokes.
Falsifying quotes is intentional.


I feel at this point it is appropriate to respond to you with all of the dignity and respect you deserve:

Good job being able to read subtext and get the general lighthearted feel of the OP in the first place. Oh, and you're totally -not- making an ass of yourself or anything, so don't worry! Image IPB

Indeed. Playing victim will not work here; you got yourself into this spot. :P It's not even so much about whether you got the joke as how you acted about it in the first place. You were rather derisive and snippy, and then became all defensive when people called you on it. I'd just suggest you quit while you're ahead.  Well, at least not any father behind. Image IPB

Ecael: I think I love you. You have made me LOL hard this day and I give you my vote and many accolades. Image IPB

EDIT: Abandon all dignity, ye who enter here.

Actually TJ put what I said in his quote box and what he said in mine. Probably just a mistake but I wish people would realize that the edit button is their friend... :lol:

Yeah not getting the joke kind of influences my responses. Missing the joke + comments = improper comments. I was not called out on it, I was lead down a path a ridicule and insults because I missed the fact all the points made were jokes.

My fight or flight mechanism defaults to fight on the dangerous internet wilderness.

I've stepped in my share of doggy-doo on the internet as well. Better to sit back and see how it plays out before posting.

Dude, I think just leave it be and head to another thread. I think sticking around here longer won't work in your favour, no matter how much sense you may make.

C'mon, I'll buy you a beer.

I find those offensive as well. Your conclusion is really hard to grasp, how did you come to that?
The gif of the child is her dancing on her own free will; I am not ridiculing her because of her weight, mental disorder, or appearance nor am I treating her gif any differently because of her weight, mental disorder, or appearance. (That is if she has a mental disorder, she looks like a kid having fun to me.) Doing either still would amount to discrimination.


The context of the gif within your otherwise mocking signature implies otherwise.

That is all.

I disagree with separating the character threads into a different forum. They fit under the category of the title of this particular forum, under the whole "storylines" thing. Moving the character threads to a different forum would promote an "us and them" mentality that would serve to segregate the forums at large. It's an attitude that singles out character threads from this forum and says "characters are not a campaign, quest, or storyline; they are not as important as the other aspects of the game". And what would be on this new character thread forum? There would be maybe twelve threads. Separating these threads from the main spoilers forum would be a waste of time and space.



Based on the fact that Ecael wants to move character discussion threads to a different forum, I must respectfully vote "no".

No offense, but isn't whoever is chosen to be a moderator the call of Priestly or Woo? So, no matter what is said in this thread, it doesn't matter. We can all vote for someone, but the decision ultimately lies in other hands. I don't know Ecael well enough, but from what I've seen, it should be someone more neutral, who is given the position of moderator.



Just my two cents

"Mass Effect 2 Official Campaign Quests and Storylines (Spoilers Warning) - This forum is for Mass Effect 2 fans to discuss the game's storyline and quests."

"Mass Effect 2 Characters, classes and Builds (Spoilers allowed) - Share your stories, artwork, music, web sites or other creative works inspired by Mass Effect 2."

They actually fit under the category of the other forum, but it's basically become the gameplay discussion forum. If the forum descriptions were true to its word, any thread on this subforum containing fanmade art would either be moved to the other forum or locked for being off-topic.

Moving the character threads to a different forum would promote an "us and them" mentality that would serve to segregate the forums at large.

Having separate threads dedicated solely to specific characters already engenders mob mentality. To illustrate this, just go into any support thread of "x" character and start talking about how terrible their character is in terms of storyline, combat ability, looks or how obsessive their fans are.

It's an attitude that singles out character threads from this forum and says "characters are not a campaign, quest, or storyline; they are not as important as the other aspects of the game".

"Mass Effect 2 Official Campaign Quests and Storylines (Spoilers Warning)"
"Mass Effect 2 Characters, classes and Builds (Spoilers allowed)"

And what would be on this new character thread forum? There would be maybe twelve threads. Separating these threads from the main spoilers forum would be a waste of time and space.

Based on the fact that Ecael wants to move character discussion threads to a different forum, I must respectfully vote "no".

As I mentioned about a page before, even the moderators have no control over new forums. It's only Chris Priestly that decides whether new forums are made or not.

@ Ecael, tbh, that doesn't matter. People who want to post in those threads can easily find them. They just look up in their recent posts. If someone wants to post bad enough in a certain thread, they will find it.

Moderators are allowed to have opinions - the most important quality would have to be consistency as well as experience. Those are traits I don't have on this forum, since I've only been here a few months compared to others who have frequented BioWare forums for years.

Javierabegazo's moderator status was well earned and well deserved. This thread is more of a parody of that, also serving to see how long it takes before this completely off-topic thread gets locked....

...Unless, of course, I'm going to be part of the Mass Effect 3 storyline.

:happy:
