<I shake my head once, grab the thick end of the broken pool stick and, while Leber is gloating, slip it over his neck and pinning his arms to his sides.>
You made two mistakes Leber: First you have learn what it sounds like when you break a pool cue over a xith alloy skull. The second mistake is that you owe me a bottle of 50 year old Corvus Bourbon. I'm willing to be a gentleman about these two misunderstandings on your part. Don't let there be a third.
Are we green? If we are we can have a drink. If not. . .
<Slowly tightening the cue against Leber's larynx to make sure this isn't a comfortable situation.>

OOC:
Had to travel a bit, but I'm back now. That'll teach me to go away. While the skull is a xith alloy, the scalp is flesh, I hate the way scalp wounds bleed.
Tosh: Come on back when you can. Good times back in beta.

I've never initiated an unprovoked attack on a UIT vessel.*
However, if you were to start something, I'd be more than willing to finish it. Most Serco view the UIT as what they are: a necessary part of what allows the entire system to function.
However, make sure that you're willing to realize that siding with the Itani makes you Itani to us.
*There has been one recent incident in Sedina, where I saw a UIT ship closing on our xith convoy after destroying a Serco fighter. Without taking the time to check the database, I delivered two flares, and then eliminated him with the gatling turret.
After a SRB hearing, I was found to be in the clear based on the location and circumstances.
<I adjust my grip on the cue, and apply a little more pressure on Leber's arms.>
Has anyone ever seen a red Itani before? It's a simple yes or no answer. We could be enjoying a nice drink right now.

OOC: PS Genshin, I had YOU start it, hitting me with the cue, but I'll roll with it...
The pain receptors fired fitfully in LeberMac's brain, annoyingly reminding him that his larynx didn't like being crushed...
He reached around with his fingers and was able to slip a 100 out of his wallet and awkwardly place it onto the bar. The bartender, watching events unfold with interest, calmly took the 100, leisurely strolled to the back room where he kept his Corvus Bourbon, poured a generous portion into the snifter, and made his way back to the bar after flirting with the waitress.
LeberMac was having obvious difficulty breathing, but was able to use his last concious breath to point to Genshin with his index finger.
The bartender set the pricey bourbon down on the bar next to Genshin, who was still applying steady pressure to LeberMac's larynx and carotid arteries. Upon receipt of the drink, he relented, dropping the pool cue and taking a long draw from the glass.
"Good fight, LeberMac. Caught me by surprise, there."
Lebermac choked out a reply, "Yeah, GF Genshin. Nice use of poolcue."
They both sat down at a table and LeberMac ordered another tequila, waiting for the next fight.

Yes, quite nice.
I feel honored by your compliment.
Thank you very much, really, I appreciate it. No sarcasm or anything.

Aww, come on now. I figure since you talk smack on everyone else's post you could handle a little smack talk yourself.
What smack?
Really, you need to look up a cliffs notes on that book if you think calling me the Idiot character from the story is any sort of insult.
Like I said, it's a compliment of a highest degree.

Commentary :
This is an interesting troll. It is an attempt to demonstrate his own intellectual superiority to the posters here by citing a work of literature, specifically "The Idiot" by Russian novelist Fyodor Dostoevsky.
While the original post itself would have merely qualify as "Mediocre", the following posts by other VO users, implying that Genka is in fact the "idiot" of the book, elevated this post to "Mildly Amusing". This is so since the Idiot of the book is protrayed as the epitome of innocence and kindness among the cynical and cruel world. This elevation is so despite Genka's inability to resist the temptation to refer others to Cliffs' notes (and thus betraying his own need to actually be appreciated for his original post), and making some errors in grammer along the way.

I'm actually familiar with that book genka. I was referencing you to the title, not the character.
Bleh. You turned this thread into a bar fight? Genka was right to post that.
When will you learn that diplomacy does not happen in spaceport or station bars?

Perhaps this would illustrate better, Genka.

What? You made a deal for a million credits yesterday to not post on one of the forums, so I simply plotted that against your graph...

Noooo, I made a deal to not post any obnoxious smart-ass or derogatory comments. Posted at least twice since then.

Commentary :
This series of three posts are non-starters as trolls, as Genka is bounded by an agreement not to post, and we quote, "obnoxious smart-ass or derogatory comments".
Thus we have no further comments to add, except to note the following.
The aforementioned quote, is an attempt to portray a "human side" of himself, i.e. that he does not take himself seriously. It is an often used internal/external mechanism of self-justification for trolls, and despite its poor implementation here, we applaud its appearance and subtle introduction.
However, having said that, the Board would like to express their disappointment in the lack of venom in these posts. We encourage Genka to further demonstrate his abilities in trolling for our further review.

hmm, i think it might be time for this thread to be reviewed into off-topic... or maybe just locked before it goes any further away from its original destination.
Please take you Genka bashing some where else please. I would like this thread to stay open as the War progresses for comments. If you have nothing to say about the war please say nothing here.
thank You
