Far-fetched.

Neither Wikipedia nor other sources on the first Google page seem to imply the term is narrowed to the intentional hampering / weakening in a game context by a change to the game mechanics.

I hereby declare it should be used it in the wider sense to have a short term for the unintentional hampering / weakening in a game context by a change to the game mechanics as well.

If it is important, one can add "intentional" or "unintentional". In our context it is not important.

Please stop at least identifying the forum with ryan reign, the forum is not that doomed.

For someone who has so much [profanity edited] about minor insults directed at them, you sure do like to dish it out, Bungarus.

"For someone who has so much [profanity edited]"

You are stalking me because your former insults got deleted without any other contribution to this thread.

I take it back... there is no way Bung is PaladinOfLancelot.

First post of you in which I can't detect an error.

Shame I can't say the same of yours... at least you're consistent.

Well, good comeback.

My point in being general rather than specific was so that people don't just go, "Oh, he said he's talking about <name>, so it must not apply to me!", when maybe it does apply to that person. If vague, it is more likely to cause people to examine themselves for the error, even if they weren't displaying it in this particular case. After all, you shouldn't assume you are the only person who has ever been considered an idiot.

Pizza's right. I'd go so far as to say everyone here is considered an idiot by at least one other person on the forums.

Pizzasgood, you put a lot of effort in constructing posts which contain a personal pronoun which represents me and "an idiot" in the same sentence.

So clever. Put "you are considered" in front of an insult and fool the moderators. If your memory is not too bad I am sure you will have ideas for many more insults that were deleted and could receive a similar treatment, don't be shy. Not even all of them were deleted, so just look around.

If you spent even half the time and effort on playing the game that you spend on worrying about whether someone's personally insulted you in response to your undeniably terrible, moronic suggestions... you'd have fewer posts that said a lot more.

Spent half the time and effort you spend on stalking on having a life.

Based on wikipedia being the one and only source of information Bungarus accepts, I think what he's saying is that Lector is wasting his life going into the scary Zone (suggestions forums) to battle other weirdos (eg ecka estenek), deal with anamolies (inexplicably hardheaded posters like Bungarus) and occasionally find a rare artefact (a few giggles to brighten his sad existence).

Considering you are the new person here and Lecter has been playing and posting in suggestion threads for something like 8 years, I don't see how you think he's stalking you by replying to your posts in suggestion threads.

Gosh, threads have been getting pretty off-topic lately.

Could you perhaps say that Lector has eight years of experience stalking the suggestions forum?

Genka, your "hardheaded" post would have benefited from a pictographic representation.



Also, 8 years is not quite right for me: Signed up:2005-02-26. It's way too short a span for Shape and some others, though.

Bungarus, sweetheart, ye seem to have quite an interestin' view of what vo should be.

I think it would be great to discuss this around a nice diner.

Let say my place latos H-2 friday night 20:00GMT

PS : get da whine, i'll bring da flower : )

Yet again, we see moderation of one insulting nickname, but not the other. And yet again, the moderator is changing what was written without any indication they are not the user's original words, rather than deleting what the moderator so amusingly defines as offensive.

Care to claim your handiwork this time, too, Ray? Or are you just going completely stealth at this point? Or maybe this time it was Phaser, who doesn't seem to grasp certain ethical points about moderation or guide powers?
