In one sense its not sport, because when people on here find a person annoying, this is the kind of reaction they give. In another sense it is sport, because once they are started they enjoy it, and keep going.
The first comment someone makes is not sport. The ones that follow are.
For example, I was willing to give you the benefit of the doubt on your first posts. But now you are spouting ridiculous statements in Roger's least monkey thread. And I really can't pass that up. Its too much fun for me to tear into it. Not to mention such statements are annoying as hell because I hear them repeatedly. Its the same as asking the question, "If humans evolved from apes, then why are there still apes around". Not only is it stupid, I've heard it thousands of times, and after hearing the same tired arguement over and over, like a broken record, a person can get alittle vicious.
Same thing for a large preportion of noobs that come to this site. Which is why you get preempted around here if you sound like another clone. Its only seldom out of all the noobs we get that one of them turns from "lolzomgz23pinealgland" to something worthy of discussing. Sure, we give y'all the benefit of the doubt by letting you have 50 posts to get it out of your systems. But with the large influx, even that has degraded a little.
One of the big things we key into is names. Like your's for example. The spelling of chaos reminds us off the bizzare spellings that people use associated with neo-pagan religions. "Magick", for example, is constantly made fun of; we make up a new spelling a week. Add the two together (like in your opening post, you claimed to be a chaos magician) and it smells fairly strong of the noobishness that we have seen before.
Speeking for myself, I have a real pet peeve for non-satirical pseudoscience. I tend to come down rather hard on anyone that makes the mistake, whether out of ignorance, or accident. Thats my perrogative. And yes, it can become sport for me. Just see that thread in apple talk.
However, I'm gonna be nice this time. I'll go over to Roger's thread and do some civil explaining.
You know I heard that same speach at the beginning of this very fucking thread (repost alert).
I didn't forget that it was there.
I swear, you must have like, memorized "how to win friends and influence people".
I'm aware this was the first time he said something, but it has certainly been my overall experience that "most" everyone here has to come up with a chip on their shoulder and announce how superior they are.
Admittedly it's getting to be kinda cute, but I'm still wary of taking off the kids gloves calling bullshit exactly as I see it because I actually do want to make some lasting friends here.
Even still, that doesn't mean I'm gonna lay down and take shit from anyone.
Especially not for some bullshit pretense that you think your somehow special for any reason whatsoever.
Fuck that noise and a half.
Maybe you already have too many and don't want anymore.
That's fine.
I don't need to prove myself to you kiddo.
Get over yourself, honestly.
Your shit stinks too.
Thanks for not stomping on my dick in the future.
Let's be friends.
...and oh yeah...
about my name.
That IS my name. My real name.
Whether or not you think it's rad or neat or cool or whatever; I DON'T CARE
your bullshit subjectivity doesn't apply to me, I have my own and I like it better.
Come back and play when you can play nice. Handshakes over fists.
Try remembering that last line.
Maybe when you do you'll find that others will be more receptive to your ideas and then maybe you'll have some luck with winning hearts and minds.
Good luck with your crusade wannabe.
