Would you go to someone's funeral to piss on their grave in front of their family? To a war memorial to spout anti-war allegations of soldiers mistreating civilians and all that other nonsense that these people say? Freedom of speech is out there, but there's a time and a place for everything. Basic etiquette and all that.Quote:

teh defiance general discussion forum, ie a forum to talk about a game, is not a funeral or a war memorial.Quote:

i asked to get it moved. dont worry about it. it will be in off topic soon then you can be happy its not in your beloved general discussion. you remind me of my friend who argues for the sake of argueing
And your point is? Where in my posts have *I* been "disrespectful" or where is this so-called "hate-message"? Please elaborate.Quote:

To compare saying that this thread is in off-topic and that we hear alot of this already on FB, with "piss on their grave" - well, that is just way out of proportions.
And I say as many others: this thread belongs in the off-topic.
yeah we get it bro it needs moved high five
Unfortunately a thread like this will always attract...'attention' shall we say.
I may not like some of the replies,or the lack of basic forum manners, but we do live in mostly democratic countries, so people can and will say what they want..from the fair,to the misguided,the ignorant and the troll.
Just be happy you CAN say what you want...not everyone in the world can.
And the price for that freedom you enjoy doesnt come cheaply or easily.
Just worth thinking about...
true story. like your MMA patch btw. or whichever yall call your clubs in the uk
Thanks...they're called the same as your clubs :)....though i do see Arkhunters being more on the 'MC' side of things!Quote:

has absolutly nothing to due with being any type of politicalQuote:

I'm not going to start spouting intolerant nonsense, I became far too jaded and cynical to really care about the opinions of other people on matters that are of zero consequence to my own life, just in the same way that I don't expect people to give a damn about my opinions. Funnily enough, people do and I have no idea why. They're just my opinions, mere words.
Inb4 "shut up, stupid redneck." I'm Chinese, my family basically had to live apart for years because of the Cold War and Chairman Mao's dictatorship. I'm anything but a redneck. I won't post any more in this thread. I've posted my support for the troops, as well as my opinions on the surrounding material that has generated here so there's nothing more worth staying for.
Wow all the long wordy attempts at trolling and bad humor and THAT was all you could up with? You didn't even try on that one. Back it up tiger, support your position. Do you have a basis for your random assinine judgment?Quote:

I thanked the OP and others which was my personal opinion and therefore...accurate.
Sorry I don't see anything in my post that would support your delusional statement. Take a deep breath, I will give you a moment to try again.
FYI: Using "Bro" instantly invalidates anything you say. Start by using entire words and preferably with a capital letter at the beginning of your statement.
i'm not being negative nor flaming. i stated a fact - this thread does not belong in this forum.Quote:

and btw two posts above this one is a post talking about a political opinion. just an FYI
well aren't you just so gosh darn kyuuuuute!
i could just take you home and eat you up!

Off Topic: Trolls wouldn't be trolls if it wasn't for us service members protecting their way of life. Sad true. Instead of trolling think on all those liberties and things you like to do. Remember the fallen.
Mad Out!
i feel like this turned south super fast lol. all i wanted was to show some appreciation
technically they have no constitutional rights on this forum beyond just being able to access it from their paid service provider. it's private domain.Quote:
