You've really hijacked Zen's "I'm back" thread, Boron, and your Pandemonium turn is still outstanding.

We're taking advantage of Zen's reduction to the ranks. He's no longer a pretender, so he can't *****-slap us with the almight Hand of the Moderator spell. And sweet ol' Gandalf is too much of a teddy bear to growl at us for being naughty. heehee

I never cared about going wildly OT on OT things. Actually considering that every topic veers so wildly off course it's not really that much of a deal.

Talking about Nazi's and Hitler could certainly go in a much worse direction (and has). But I might just ***** slap you Arryn, just for old times sake!

He loves me! I knew it. How sweet. You're such a dear.

I think I would welcome Zen much more if he would knock off his "cute" little IRC script, which kicks me from Dom2 channel every time he decides to drop in. He put it into effect shortly after Norfleet's cheating was exposed and Norfleet was forced to quit.


Since Zen promptly ignored all my Messages that I've send to him asking to stop kicking me from the channel, as well as those from other players, including channel moderator, asking him to stop it, I assumed he actually enjoys doing so just because he can.

This being the case it is not surprising that I find historical WW2 subject as well as hardcore strategy games subject that was being discussed here much more intersting than the subject of Zen's return...

Actually it was there much previous to that. I simply wasn't there very often because I didn't need it.

No, I ignored all your Messages because you got placed in the special place that is /ignore where people who pester you relentlessly for no reason other than to spell badly and foam at the mouth go. The others expressed to me their desire for you to stop pestering them and I told them that you, of course, would whine at them regardless of what I did, so we came to a mutual understanding that I could care less if you are kicked while I am there. Consequences for your actions, even on the Internet, yah?

Considering how misinformed you are about most of it, I'm not surprised you are interested in talking about it and I have no problem with it as I said earlier, Topics always veer wildly off course and I would not expect this to be any less. Though I wish Arryn would not bait Boron so much, she should know that some people are just as opinionated as she is (Hah!)

If you consider that "baiting", I cringe to think what you'd say if I actually went out of my way to deliberately bait someone. hmmm ...

Well as the past indicates, Hitler + Boron = Hate. And starting a conversation doing anything other than agreeing with his (invalid, or suppositional) opinion will provoke a reaction. From what we know of Boron this reaction will often be less than reasoned and thus, by your unescapable need of logical nature, reply to him correcting. And then, it continues and totally veers off course, because most of the time when presented with a logical arguement, most escape to changing the subject or focusing on minor or out of context aspects. YES?!

And of course, I think your hair is pretty.

How accurate! Bravo! You even pegged my Pavlovian need to react to illogic. Jolly well done, chap!

Flattery works. Did you take a sensitivity course during your brief hiatus? I like this "new" you much better ...

No, I ignored all your Messages because you got placed in the special place that is /ignore where people who pester you relentlessly for no reason <skiped>
For the sake of keeping this discusion civil and polite, I am skiping the rest of your message with all its insults.


You said that you have not seen my Messages because they were put on "ignore". All right, let's assume that it was the case here. Now you have seen this message. So I ask you to remove your script and stop baning me from the channel, that you almost never visit yourself these days. I am currently in several Dom2 games with most other Dom2 channel regulars, and we meet on IRC to talk and discuss our trades and diplomacy daily. You, on the other hand, are almost never there.

But even if you are going to start visiting and spending there most of your time, as you used to do before you "retired" and put me on "ban" list as your parting gift, it does not matter, since I am there to talk with my in-game friends and partners, that's all. For good or for bad it is the only active Dom2 channel around that is visited by this forum's regulars at this moment, and you know it.



So, I am going to say this here in public: Zen, I have no intentions of speaking to you in Dom2 IRC channel ever again.

Here, I've said that. Therefore there are no possible reasons for you to keep kicking me from the channel every time you log in. Unless of course you are recieving a pervent pleasure from abusing whatever little power you may have over other people around you, and causing them grief simply because you can.



So will you please deactivate your IRC script? You can even put me on your "ignore list" if you like, however that would not be nessesery since as I said I have no intention or interest of speaking to you whatsoever.
