I will think of Hosh! And warranted trolling is fun... and all too confused with stating actual opinions in anger. Look at Trygon. I'd say there's a lot of posts he's made that a layman would slap "troll" all over, yet he's just telling his truth in his own way. There's a lot that are just trolling, but their pretty obvious and usually quite humorous. Not, what I would call, real trolling.
I enjoy this sort of exchange because I realize there can be no conclusion that satisfies both sides and/or causes the other to yield. Thus, seeing as there can be no "winner", it's interesting to see what others who don't get this (or are of a similar mind to me) come up with as an argument. As Anne Frank said "You don't know a person until you've had a good row with them!".
However, if it is the wish of the community I don't want to dam the tide. I apologise to you, coredump, for my angry responses. Though I believe their content is valid any and all validity for others not of like mind was lost as soon as I phrased them as some sort of attack (and, in truth, it was). However, at the end of the day my beef is with Yori and you Coredump have never given me any real reason to dislike you. As to your opinions... well... "Each to their own" eh?
Of course, is this does not satisfy things... I'm more than willing to continue this away from eyes offended. It's my turn after all!

But Yoritomo is the "fuckin hothead"? I have never seen him swear at anyone, let alone tell them to go fuck themselves. I have never seen Yoritomo call out a poster for not "really" being a forum member. I have never seen him try and get other posters to gang up on a member. But you have managed all of this in just one thread, while calling him a "fuckin hothead".
The reason I'm mad is because we've decided to purge TTH from our boards. Then you come in. Everyone of your posts defies our new goal. I admit I attempted to reason with you. You fuckin' love the guy. OK, GO BAKE HIM A FUCKING CAKE ALREADY. How many times do I have to say the same damn shit before it get's through your fuckin' skull? He deleted our shit without Hivey's permission/any notice. He banned Sal for a rule abiding post. Candy coat it all you want. It's still bullshit. Now you say something about how reasonable he is. By all means let's not accept that we disagree. I'm sure if you keep promoting him we'll change our minds. I'm sick of fucking arguing over shit that has nothing to do with NewGen. All of this shit has been said twice over. If it's about NewGen I'd love to hear all about it. But if it has anything to do with TTH expect to be ignored from here on out. Be original dammit.
I acted like a hothead. Ok, you are right here is a cookie. But before you start eating, think about Commando. They took his daughter. They held her for ransom to get him to do something he didn't want to do. They showed they held no regard for anyone in the process. As a result Matrix fought back and killed those bitches, in turn rescuing his daughter. Now if it were to follow your formula, it would be him jumping through a madman's hoops to no end to find nothing but disappointment for not having the balls to stand up for what is right. Yes I'm a hothead, a hothead has driven me to this. If you're going to lock the TTH thread about Salamut and continue to argue your point on a forum that wishes to hear nothing of the sort, you're a lost cause. |

"Haha Yori, you can't post that because I found a rule to stop you, just like you try and use the rules to stop me. Now I turned it on you..." but seriously, you really think this? |

Hellbreaker, glad to see you respond with the same actions that Yoritomo took. I was hoping someone that felt he acted wrongly would have the balls to respond... but hey, thanks. Just for clarity's sake I'm not here because I dislike Yori. I'm only here because most of what made me visit General went here. I'm one for light hearted conversation and jokes, which I find here. If I feel like reading about Tyranids, rumours, warhammer in general or give/get painting advice for whatever reason I'll go to TTH. The difference between these two sites is pretty clear to me. Cheers! |

Does anyone remember when the last Mod was promoted on The tyranid Hive and I said, "Too Many Mods!" and people poured wrath over me while obsequiously congratulating the new mod?
Just wanted to say, "Told You So!"
Why would someone modify my post?
That doesn't seem very "Free to do anything here" at all.

Thlaylie... what? This has absolutely nothing to do with how many mods there are, it is entirely anout Yori's, and only Yori's, attitude and methods. Nothing else. And Yori wasn't even one of those new mods you were complaining about.

Ah my favorite fan CM,
Actually it does:
If there weren't so many mods at TTH they wouldn't be over here causing drama,
They would be busy doing their jobs at TTH.

There is one mod over here causing drama, and he was already a mod when you complained about it before. And no they wouldn't be busy, it doesn't take that much time to read a few threads.

Why would they be here in the 1rst place if TTH was being modded so well?
Guess you missed the Yori and Hive Mind rants.

I'm fuzzy on the whole "busy doing there jobs" line. Isn't mods doing there jobs what caused the genesis and exodus to this forum in the first place? |

Lets not bustle and bicker over who killed who! This is s'posed to be a happy occasion!
Right, new topic. What follows is the entire draft manuscript for my multimedia major project entitled "The Cyber Train".
The animation begins with a false loading screen that mirrors those of actual flash animations. Once this is done, the screen flashes red three times (the length of each flash increasing) with a “play” button materialising on the final flash.
The opening title and credits plays over a tunnel through which a boy is sliding down on a swivel chair (shown side on). He reaches the end of the tunnel, which opens into a large room that evokes a computer desktop (with icons on the walls and QWERTY keys on the floor tiles). The boy hops off the chair and looks around. He thinks to himself, his words not heard but written as subtitles.
Boy: Hrrrm…
He spies a ticket machine adorned with the INTERNET EXPLORER logo.
Boy: Ah, there we are.
He walks over to it and it produces a ticket. He takes the ticket to a blank wall and waves it. A crackling noise is heard, and an announcement plays through a VOLUME icon on the wall.
Announcer: The next train boarding on platform two arrives in…
The voice is cut out by a load dialup tone and the blank wall begins to display an inaccurate timer (like a file download) as the sound continues. The boy waits until it is finished, placing his ticket in one of his jacket pockets. The sound finishes, the timer displays “Done”…
Boy: Finally…
… and a train emerges from the right side of the wall. The boy boards its first carriage, and it leaves.
Inside the first carriage, the boy takes a few steps before a pop-up appears. The viewer must close this pop-up in order to continue watching the animation. The boy is surprised at this and looks around the carriage. His face contorts into anger.
Boy: Oh hell!
He see’s several different strange looking people. They look at him and immediately jump up and try to sell him things. The boy rejects all their offers, and more pop-us open as he progresses through the carriage.
Salesman 1: Would you like to enjoy a stable home loan AND a free holiday!
Boy: No.
*pop-up opens*
Salesman2: Join our online poker tournament and win huge prizes!
Boy: No!
Salesman3: Chat with hot girls in your area of *AUSTRALIA NEWCASTLE*.
Boy: Go away.
Salesman4: The biggest online RPG JUST GOT BIGGER!
Boy: It’s still garbage.
*pop-up opens*
Salesman5: OUTDRINK SANTA. WIN AN IPOD!
Boy: Look, just bugger off!
Salesman6: Are you tired of the hassle that is managing multiple television remotes and wireless devices?
*pop-up opens*
Boy: Goddamn it, just GO AWAY!
Salesman7: IF I SUDDENLY PLAY SHOCKINLY LOUD MUSIC WILL YOU BUY THE STUFF I’M…
Boy: (interrupting) “x”
The last salesman disappears. The Boy leaves the carriage and enters the transition corridor. He looks up above the door to the next carriage and see’s a plaque inscribed with the words “Forums, Chat and Social Networking”. He smiles.
Boy: Ah, here we are. I hope people are on.
He proceeds through the door. This carriage is full of disembodied mouths all talking unintelligibly with one another. They each have a username above them. One seat is occupied by a normal looking person with a bright green shirt. The boy sees this and smiles.
Boy: Hey! ****. What you up to mate?
The person does not move or respond in any way.
Boy: Mate? Helloooo?
The person’s shirt suddenly turns yellow.
Boy: Oh…
The boy turns away and surveys the mouths.
Boy: well, I don’t know anyone else. Pffft… may as well play a game or something. Yeah, I’ll check back after that.
The boy progresses past the mouths and into the next transition corridor. The next carriage is “Online Gaming”, and the boy enters. The camera zooms into the boy’s eye and takes on his first person perspective. He raises a shotgun and progresses through the carriage, blasting various videogame enemies as he does so (the viewer must click these enemies quickly as they appear to blast them, or else they will kill the boy and cause a GAME OVER, starting the scene again). After these enemies he picks up a large laser cannon.
Boy: Sweet!
The final enemy is a Cyberdemon from DOOM, and the boy must dodge two of his rockets (the viewer must click arrows that appear briefly on the screen) before firing his laser into the beast (or else getting shot and causing a GAME OVER). The Cyberdemon drops a blue key which opens the next carriage and the boy progresses through.
The boy considers his options in the transition corridor.
Boy: Well, that was fun! Hmmm… I wonder if anyone’s online ye…
The boy cuts his thought short when he realises that the next carriage has no name. Aside from this, it appears as a regular door.
Boy: Eh? That’s odd. I wonder where it…
He looks back over his shoulder, thinking.
Boy: Oh, I can check that later. I wonder where this one leads.
The boy proceeds through to the next carriage. He finds it similar to the previous carriages, except instead of salesmen, mouths or videogame enemies it is populated by men in suits. Each’s head is obscured by large newspapers they are all reading, and they are taking up every seat bar one parallel with the train. The boy, curious, goes and sits in this seat. He looks around, waiting for something to happen. Nothing does, so he relaxes and lets out a sigh. Suddenly, an eerie backwards voice is heard (subtitled like the boys thoughts).
Mysterious Man: Dear… Dear… you look frightfully bored.
The boy looks around, trying to determine where the voice came from.
Boy: Eh?
The camera cuts to show the suited man sitting opposite the boy. He is the one who spoke, and he continues.
Mysterious Man: We can’t have any bored people here, that’s just not on. I have many spare newspapers. You may read mine, if you wish.
The man folds his newspaper, revealing that his hands and head are invisible or non-existant. He reaches across and offers it to the boy. The boy is hesitant.
Mysterious Man: Go on, I’m sure it’s what you’re looking for.
The boy takes the newspaper and looks at its front page. The headline simply reads “open me”. He does this (though the viewer does not see what is inside). The boy’s eyes widen and he screams as the train carriage around him begins to distort. The camera zooms into his eye.
What follows is a surreal nightmare sequence that represents the damage caused to either the boy or his computer by whatever terrible thing the mysterious man gave to him. At first the boy floats is a dark void, surrounded by words darting back and forth. He is then running in the second carriage, the mouths trying to eat him. He trips and the camera zooms in on the encroaching mouths. He is then in a dark blue room on a moving platform, mechanical arms removing his arms and mouth and a tube injects noxious ooze into his exposed brain. He is then in a room with a golden coin, which he tries to catch but it flies away. The face on it laughs at him. The room’s walls flash with newsprint and turn bright white. In the centre of the room is a black orb. The boy approaches it, the camera zooms into it, and the animation cuts to static.
The animation returns to show the door to the last carriage. It opens and a woman in her thirties walks through. She sees the suits and stops in mid stride. The camera cuts to show the mysterious man, then it rotates to show the other suits in the carriage, then it rotates again to show a new suit sitting where the boy used to be. The animation cuts to black, and the backwards-voice is heard. The subtitles are erratic and appear at random.
Mysterious Man: Dear… Dear… you look frightfully bored.
End
What do we think? Keep in mind this is a draft and I'm thinking of changing the "nightmare sequence". Also, I'll be holding some sort of something for people to have thier usernames appear as cameos, and someone has to take the role of ****. Don't ask now.

Anytime you want instant drama look after one of my posts no matter how simple or matter of fact and he's there contradicting whatever I say and going of on all sort of wondrous tangents. I think he's trying to inflate his post count and ingratiate himself with us veterans. Like that guy at the party that acts like he knows you and what he's talking about? Yes, just like that. |

No Thlaylie, what it is is that I don't see the need to pander to your egotistical arsehole tendencies. Honestly I'm surprised you're still here, nobody wants you here, and only Alice even pretends to like you, which I doubt she does seeing as how you essentially cyberstalk her.
As for me supposedly posting after all of your posts, that just isn't true. I often find myself deciding to ignore you rather than comment on your total idiocy, but sometimes, like in this thread, what you post is just so completely nonsensical that I can't help myself. The reason I posted in this thread was because your post had absolutely nothing to do with what was being discussed, still doesn't, and I was trying to make sense of it. You took it as an attack, so now I'm making it one.
Out of interest, who exactly makes up 'you veterans'? It seems to me that it changes everytime you say it. Sometimes there are people who have been around less time than me as 'members', sometimes it's basically just you. Really, who are these wondrous veterans you talk about?
Alice, I've already explained my post, although I'm sure Thlaylie will come along in a minute and make a long post with lots of big words trying to prove me wrong, but the point is I did not start an argument. Thlaylie did his usual act of coming in to a random thread and posting something entirely random to try and make himself seem like he's such an amazing guy who can't be wrong about anything, and I was just trying to figure out what the hell he was talking about. I had planned on leaving it alone in that post you quoted, but apparently I'm not going to be able to do that.
Now really though people, why the fuck is Thlaylie still here? Nobody wants him here. Maybe he just gets some kind of sick pleasure from people treating him like shit. Would explain a lot anyway.
A little suggestion for the 'mods', this forum needs the option to ignore certain posters. That way I won't have to put up with any more of Thaylies utter bullshit.
Thlaylie, feel free to make your rebuttal, but as of this moment I'm done in this thread, adios.
