I have completely given up trying to be polite to you, your last post bears nothing productive and is a pure and simple attack on me. Or im just saying you do not provide 'abstract rational constructs' as you claim. Because you flame/insult while making actual positive contributions while you are a...

Your description of the forms of argument presumes we have diametrically opposed views, abstract rational constructs which we are attempting to prove or disprove to each other repsectively, this is not the case. We are not. You rely heavily on attacking character, you use emotional means to get you...

But you feel you can speak in a 100% factual manner about how xta has been governed without knowing any specifics about its past? Or I held back to get some good quotes from the forum to support what I know. Which I said I was doing with nor. But thanks for the nice vote of confidence peet. This is...

I just wanted to point out there are 3 things i look at when you guys post. Logos: Argument by logic.-Specifically I check to see if an argument doesn't contradict itself. Pathos: Argument by emotion. Ethos: Argument by character.- Looking Trust Worthy. I try limit it to logic, but sometimes i use e...

Peet wrote: Boss, could you post a general timeline of XTA's existence? I'd like to see what your conception of it is. Still waiting on this, it will reveal a lot about the situation. I asked nor to do a check in the message boards for sources. But from what i've seen its a little ambiguous atm. I ...

It is amazing how my character is attacked. I see this as an cold equation. Democracy was never set up, there is no charter, so u cant bitch and complain on the Dev for behavior you previously rewarded. Simple as that. Prove me wrong, no problem. boss learnt to play in the 8.1-->9.1 transition area,...

!vote 1 hoi

Not now Peet, maybe later. We are still trying to figure out this: XTA was established as a Democracy by SJ. It was a long... Is the community failing at democracy? Some would say so. Not the community tho, since democracy is just about consent. A forum where we just add +1 to arguments would be jus...

Good. Because Sj never said any of that. He was purely a dictatorship/philosopher king who called the shots in xta dev.

So if SJ, who was in charge of the xta project, didn't make xta a democracy, who did?

Do I believe the dev process should be democratic? Name me one mod that is.

Do you remember SJ saying all that?

Yeah next time im in Zanzibar I'll ask them to log on and my people can talk with pintle's people. Here is something you people(Ivory King, Pintle, and Bashar) do not recognize. Read very carefully. XTA was established as a Democracy by SJ. It was a long time ago. Is the community failing at democra...

mhmm Pintle: I have a group of friends I represent in Zanzibar land too. You know Smoth, you have made my day. If when the planets allign and it's strange cosmic rays came down on to you Smoth and you wanted to play xta, you let me know. Pluto doesnt count anymore, our scientists dispelled its power...

*sigh*

Pintle: Well I dont think your full of shit, I just think your facts and info are wrong. For example, Noraus didnt take down the forums. He said we might need to find moderators or maybe we should remove the forum. The next day, the forums were down before any work went out to find moderators. Nor w...

hey ur ideas were somehow included into the (somehow shitty) subpen-stuff btw how about xta-8.1-balancing with 9.45-effects Well Manola. I made no suggestive comments on the subpen. I was shocked and surprised as you were. Well that'd be really nice. I wouldn't mind playing old 8.1 with 9.45 graphi...

Wait why was I angry that my ideas were contested? I think that'd make me very happy if everyone included stuff that wasn't besides the point, like honor, and good will, and koombaya, and no negative comments please. I mean, how do you say something is broken without implying it needs to be fixed? A...

No pintle. I didnt know you or af hosted it. It should be no surprise that id object, I gave fair warning that I would. Who hosted it was clearly besides the point since I made the point before anyone volunteered. 'The Don't be a dick' was clearly icing on the cake. It was exactly one of the reasons...

You didnt do what i asked. You didn't have to of course, but Im out as I said i would be. I took a look at the new forum in hope that my forum experience was telling me wrong. It wasn't. When you have an ambiguous forum rule with only 4-6 people there might be big trouble. 'Don't be a Dick'. That ca...

Good. As long as the notice is out, that it is not automatically decided that we move to another forum and secondly that discussion will take place here before the forum, Im happy.

If for whatever reason there was just a simple vote without discussion, you can count me out from the new forums.

Leave xta here. Its healthier here than being cooped up in some remote forum.
