Nah, I enjoy myself too much for that  ;)

 

Women are on the forums, Jackie boy. They're aaaaaalll around you. I even got linked up with one female BSN poster on xbox live. We played MP. Women are bleeding everywhere on the BSN. You going around and trying to act tough by telling them that they aren't women? It's the most funny part of your material, but only because it's the part that best shows you for the buffoon that you are. It's my favorite part

 

I'm on like white on...Well, on you

 

No... Seriously... Stop quoting him, stop responding to him. You are actually improving his day/night and giving him enjoyment by responding to him, start ignoring him and he'll go away. Or if he doesn't go away but keeps upping himself to try to tick people off enough to respond to him, a mod will make him go away. The only way to deal with people like this is to not give them they attention they want.

(Anyway, getting back on topic.)

 

 

 The broodmother are ridiculous fat monsters and nothing more,and watching Tegan dancing like a fool was the most horrific moment in the franchise, what a bad performance.

 

Dwarven broodmothers are fat, human ones aren't. The human variant in Awakening is quite skinny.

>derailing and trying to troll

 

**** me. Since when did not being politically correct = being a troll? Are you that sensitive, pumpkin?

Just a fair warning; This thread looks like it has already visited political pitstops to keep it running which, I believe, violates a forum rule so it would probably be best to move this brand of discussion away from the thread or have the thread switch to more moderator-approved fuel.

This is why I will never label myself as either feminist or MRA, because anytime someone think of these groups they think of the extremist. If you're someone who believes in equal social rights you'll do good in calling yourself an egalitarian.  

 

Quite right. I never label myself such either. I prefer to just stick with being an average *******.

Oh, what the hell. The thread is a wash, might as well perform an experiment. Below the spoiler cut: photos of me and this stupid thread! (If this was a secret plot to get pics of hot girls, you're going to be so disappointed.)

 

Spoiler

 

Really sorry about the blurriness, taking selfies with a tablet isn't easy.

 

Now watch as he continues to insist that I'm a man. Somehow.

I meant more the lead up to the broodmother. The canibalism and whatnot.

 

The Teagan dance was horrible, yes. I agree 100 percent. But the quest still involved a child possessed by a demon, and you could end up killing the child. So in that way it was on the dark side.

Why are you even bothering to prove anything to this idiot? Why is he even worth a post like this? How did this thread even derail to the point of him doing the old "there's no girls on the internet" getting serious posts? If he can't take someone at their word about what sex or gender they are, that's his problem.

Aw, it's Jackie boy who's improved my night. He's just too funny for words.

 

But I'll drop it, sure. I'm out for the night.

I'm guessing you're well below the age of 18 if you think everyone is honest and their word is all you need, especially on the internet.

Like I say, it's an experiment. My hypothesis was that there was no standard of 'I am a girl' proof he would actually accept, because girls all over the Dragon Age forums doesn't fit his narrative.

Nah, you're a woman alright. Which is actually a good thing; offering to show men your ****** and being a lesbian liberal gives me soooo many more reasons to judge you.

I am not, in point of fact, a lesbian, hyper or otherwise. I am a straight liberal instead. Feel free to continue judging, though!

 

(I would point out that the boobs thing was a joke, but I guess you already know that and are just being disingenuous.)

This article is one of very few honest ones about the failures of this game, which is very nicely summarized in what I have said many many times on these forums:

 

"Dragon Age feels like that kind of [MMO] world. A world made by developers who didn't have a backbone to stand up for what they had created, and capitulated to bizarre internet pressure to build a happy-dappy paradise where good people are good, bad people are bad, and any 'grey' moral conflict can be sorted with a quick check to which faction you signed up to."

To stand up for what, exactly? A game designed to up-end fantasy convention? As everything moves toward grey and grey morality and grimdark, DA:I moving to lighter and softer - which it isn't doing, but let's pretend that it is doing it - would be truer to the roots than staying grimdark, since the series was made as a response to the common tropes of the day.

Said the guy who started the ad hominem attacks.  Oh the Irony. :lol:

 

I didn't agree with his ad hominem attacks either, but why resort to them yourself? It only makes you lose some position?

Your logic is very much unlike my logic.

But I think you're giving DA way to much credit. It was simply catching on to ASoIaF popularity, but even then it had more in common with DnD than current fantasy trends.

There was no position to defend.  He made it clear that the conversation was done so I started having some fun with his troll posts.

It's about everything and nothing at all.  It's BSN, just ride the wave. :D

... very mature (sigh).

If you're so certain he's a troll (personally I just think he's way paranoid, but alright) I'm guessing you feel nothing but contempt for the concept 'don't feed the trolls'.

Let's all chill and focus on the topic at hand, shall we?

Learn not to take everything on BSN seriously.
