What is the point of this thread?


The point of this thread is to prove that slavery is good. Everyone should have slave, or two.

My only rule at this point is that magic exists to make me delicious chocolate souffles.


I like the sound of your Imperium better. Do you have a Kickstarter? 


An Imperium of deliciousness? Watch out for the Qunari and their insatiable appetite...:wizard:

Whining about why the sith shouldn't be called evil, even though they practice supreme selfishness and profit for the individual over any sort of profit towards a group. Making them pretty evil by my definition, which apparently rustled jimmy's jimmies.

We just call them capitalists here

to celebrate being pro-Mage?


Oh nice! I like mages! They have good conversation when tranquil and they are so calm to. I had this joke where, we gather up all the children that show traces of magic and we send them to this tower LOL(good part) and we force them to use magic according to our regulations. The Killer punchline is mages that run away from the circle, are called apostates! This means we might capture them again, punish them or even kill them....good times

Tevinter Empire has to look very civilized and quite advanced.


Why?

They're a decaying empire fighting a losing war. The place is probably a dump.

I have understanding of Tevinter potential with right directions of controlling and being under control. This is more than enough. Magocracy is the best way to be, if the leaders are wise enough.


So you're okay with oppression? Just need clarity on that point. Though you already say so.


There is no oppression when everyone are forced to be happy. Oppression is when everyone are "free" and unhappy.

People need control just like they need food, water, and air.


Oddly enough I'm reading a novel right now that deals with the question of a Society optimizing its citizens health and happiness through absolute control of work, play, marriage, reproduction, retirement, etc.  

The idea that oppression isn't so bad or doesn't actually exist, if it leads to happiness, is illusory.  The happiness itself is an illusion.

Happiness is, nearly undeniably, the result of a not-that-complex set of biochemical reactions.

How one achieves it can be voluntary or forced. Natural or manufactured. Free or controlled. The result of a net equation, one with a near infinite number of venues to achieve, but all of which have similar results. 

Would a method of more people achieving this happiness with the least amount of waste and the most amount of forward progress be, on the surface, "evil" if it co-opted people's free will in the process? That's not as easy of a question to answer as people think.

You want to be a happy slave, unaware of your servitude?

Okay! I'll give you my address, you can come over and I'll beat you with a shoe till you're a vegetable, or you lose your memory. How's that sound?

Never have children.


Brain damage is a terrible quality in one who serves. 

I don't care about the quality of his servitude. So long as Seival's happy and unaware of the fact that he's been beaten and made into a living table in my dining room, then it's all good.


Don't you think you're taking them a bit too seriously? they're almost surely a troll.  I'm certain they are, and just allowing for the possibility of otherwise.  It's an interesting philosophical question, but still, troll.  You're giving them what they want by your response.

Seival is not a troll, I'm pretty sure, this is far from the first time he's spewed forth on the forums his unique world view.

Why? If anything, I'm expecting it to look Roman. With the pig latin that is Arcanum, gladiator fighters et al.

The number of times a person "spews forth" is irrelevant to their being a troll, actually.  There's been plenty of dedicated trolls in these forums.

Perhaps, but I bet Seival is more along the lines of our glorious lord and savior David7204.

An Ordered society and slavery are pretty much synonymous to me. It doesn't matter how "wise" the master is... Its never good.


What is so bad in being a slave, if you don't even realize that you are a slave and very happy with your life?


What the ****? I'm seriously scratching my head over this. Can't tell if trolling.

Why not qunari then? They tend to control people even better, especially mages.


Yep. You want control - see the Qunari. They know how to handle mages. :devil:

One does not simply rustle a Jimmy.

Even by his jimmies, he remains unrustled.
