This is a site for discussing roleplaying games. Have fun doing so, but there is one major rule: do not discuss political issues that aren't directly and uniquely related to the subject of the thread and about gaming. While this site is dedicated to free speech, the following will not be tolerated: devolving a thread into unrelated political discussion, sockpuppeting (using multiple and/or bogus accounts), disrupting topics without contributing to them, and posting images that could get someone fired in the workplace (an external link is OK, but clearly mark it as Not Safe For Work, or NSFW). If you receive a warning, please take it seriously and either move on to another topic or steer the discussion back to its original RPG-related theme.

The RPGPundit's Own Forum Rules
This part of the site is controlled by the RPGPundit. This is where he discusses topics that he finds interesting. You may post here, but understand that there are limits. The RPGPundit can shut down any thread, topic of discussion, or user in a thread at his pleasure. This part of the site is essentially his house, so keep that in mind. Note that this is the only part of the site where political discussion is permitted, but is regulated by the RPGPundit.

I am bothered when people attribute claims to me that I did not make.  That's lying, and I would rather you not spread lies about me.  The rest of what you said is merely stupid and hyperbolic.  It certainly doesn't bother me.


Want some cheese with that whine?

The point is made - you are building a paper trail of statements in text that guarantee you will never get a job in the criminal justice system.
And yeah, you fit the word "unstable" - thats why I used it in another thread title.

This thread was originally about Curt and his banning - maybe you could e-mail him and you two can have a nice game together?

Acta Est Fabula

Quote from: JackalopeI've never been to jail, nor claimed to have spent time in jail.  I've never even gotten a traffic ticket.  My legal record is, in fact, spotless.

I am bothered when people attribute claims to me that I did not make.  That's lying, and I would rather you not spread lies about me.  The rest of what you said is merely stupid and hyperbolic.  It certainly doesn't bother me.

I swore I read that you spent a brief time in jail.  But you know what? That's only one of the things I had listed, and even if you disregard it, it doesn't take away from my point at all.  That being, I find it dripping with irony that you claim to be a criminal justice major while breaking laws (threats of bodily harm online, smoking weed), and not only engage in violent rampages, but encouraging them as normal behavior (...anyone who is 30 and hasn't been in a bar fight isn't living.)

So how exactly is that stupid and hyperbolic if it's true?  As I see it, one of 3 things are true:

1. You do in fact have a record and are headed for disaster
2. You're still living in your basement and feel the need to make shit up to make yourself look more badass on the internet
3. You're genuinely a victim of multi-personality disorder.

I'm sure you believe a lot of nonsense that has no basis in reality.

QuoteBut you know what? That's only one of the things I had listed, and even if you disregard it, it doesn't take away from my point at all.

It does take away from your point if you're completely wrong though.

Do you understand that a criminal record and drug use would not, in any way, prevent one from getting a degree from a college?  A hardened ex-con once found guilty of murder could pursue a criminal justice degree.

None of those things is remotely true.

Quote from: KoltarThe point is made - you are building a paper trail of statements in text that guarantee you will never get a job in the criminal justice system.

I'm not interested in a job in the criminal justice system.  Many people keep assuming that, but when I got my degree I never had any intention of going into that line of work.  I walk with a limp due to a dog attack when I was 10.  I was never going to be a cop.  You have to be able to run 1.5 miles in 10 minutes to become a cop (or something, I forget the exact figure).  I can't run more than 100 yards without my ankle giving out, and spend most of my time wearing an ankle brace.

No sympathy from me.

You act like a jerk on the internet.
 I've had to use a cane to walk since 2005 - that doesn't change the fact that things go a lot easier when you try to get along with people.

You also admit to pursuing a degree in a career path where you claim you don't have much a chance of getting a job.

Sounds like you're either a defeatist or not real bright in making your schooling and career choices.

Quote from: HackmastergeneralI enjoy the place, and also enjoy this place.  For different reasons.  When I smell bullshit, which the bitchfests about bannings from rpg.net often involve, I call it.

A fair answer, and another bullshit spotter can't be a bad thing.

Jackalope will be whatever he's gonna be. This board won't indulge him with the hysterical swooning that other sites would, so he'll either unfuck himself and get with the program, or he'll be mocked and ignored 'till he goes off to some other messageboard where he can be the Scary Crazy Guy. Either way, who gives a shit?

At least he can write in clear and coherent sentences, which puts him several notches above most of the assholes clogging up the Internet (present company excluded, of course).
The only thing I ever believed in the Bible was John 11:35.

With Jackalope, the bullshit is so strong, you'd have to have synthesia not to smell it.

But yeah, my meaning in posting that wasn't to try to lobby to get him tossed - it was just asking some very pointed questions, to provoke thought.  I never operated under any delusions he'd get the shift - Pundit wouldn't do that, he'd get roundly hung from every corner of this place for the seeming hypocritical (though in some ways intelligent and cautious) decision.  Beyond that, he just wouldn't do it - its not in his nature to toss someone out for another boards mess, most notably BP's.

Quote from: Chango ChiI don't believe a fucking word you post, you're not only a massive failure but also a huge liar.

In what way, little boy?  Thats big words, can you back em up with some actual fact, or are you still smarting over getting tossed from the .net, and like the little bitch you are, start lashing out at others?  

Seriously, what?
 

Jackalope

Quote from: KoltarNo sympathy from me.

I wasn't asking for sympathy.  I'm just bored of people telling me how I'm never going to get a job in the criminal justice without first bothering to fidn out if that's my goal.

QuoteYou act like a jerk on the internet.

And clearly, that makes me unique.  I mean, I think you act like a jerk on the internet.  So....buttons?

QuoteYou also admit to pursuing a degree in a career path where you claim you don't have much a chance of getting a job.

:rolleyes:  Having a college degree of any sort is valued by many employers.  I am, for example, more likely to be promoted to management by the company I work for than many of my co-workers, who do not have college degrees.

Just shows how you'll lash out at anyone and everything who criticizes you and gets in your way.

Yes - but you've proven to be quite reasonable, and all the arguments I've seen you involved in you tend to debate things with intelligence and style.
