Darus convinced me to believe in universal health care. No joke.

I've also found that with the consensus of morons (confederation of dunces) problem, you can just ignore the people who join in and keep hammering at your main opponent. If people feel like their posts aren't getting attention they could lose interest, or if they see the person they're defending getting attacked harder than ever they may lose faith and back off. This, of course, depends on the level of dedication they have to their stupid idea.

This isn't a bad idea really, the issue I forsee though is you take this approach , you turn the thread into a two person debate, which happens a lot anyways. Two-person debating sucks because if they do have a strong level of dedication to their stupid idea(and they often do, it's what makes them stupid) you eventually have to forfeit simply due to time(I mean fuck, I argued with Swampy for like 20 pages once...even people like me with more free time than sense, have stuff to do!).

It's a gamble at best, but forcing that route is an option I hadn't considered, it takes the unbeatable situation and simply steers it to one you'll still lose most of the time, but not all of it.

Okay I just got to rant about this... and maybe a few ppl have experienced this before with BG but their "professionalism" with moderating their boards is flawed.

I myself am a website admin and moderator and have been for a decade ._. I moderated boards just as huge if not bigger than BG before and not only that I am working on my master's project which is related to art courses and using a message board system to develop a community for art students to learn in. So I think I know a weeeeee bit more than BG mods do with professionalism.

Now, granted Titanss is a funny guy and I know him irl and he's very care free but he and I know how far to go on a message board. But at times I think that some moderators, which are young and inexperienced at actually doing their job right, get too self-absorbed into their job and ban like crazy over their own personal feelings. That is NOT how you treat people.

The phrase to put it mildly is called "godmodding." Kids put up a message board and then it becomes popular... then some mods actually go powercrazy over that type of power and think that they can do whatever that they want.

We all know our fun luving Titanss really doesn't break any rules. He doesn't spark fights but actually its the other way around- posters replying spark the fights and Titanss's original messages don't even provoke that.

Anyway, what this all came down too was him being banned from BG.... not once but so far twice! Now the first time, Titanss was banned because FFXI nerds were raging on Titanss for his spelling and grammar.. hay last time I checked this was a free country..er..internet. Apparently that doesn't apply to BG because he was banned because and I quote, "the mod that banned you couldn't stand reading his posts." WELL DON'T READ HIS POSTS THEN! lol BG has a flawed system, they just BAN you... no email warning nothing. And it's one thing to be kicked off of a board- its another being BANNED flat out where you can no longer see the message board. That is just wrong especially since no warning was made prior... but apparently, their rubric rules which one has to memorize in the back of their heads has to be constantly be in your mind all the damn time. And mind you, I've written REAL professional disclaimers for message boards and I know prolly even more than they do with what a poster can and cannot do. Well Titanss also knows this too.... again, he's not as dumb as you all think ~.^

Well my friend logs on and he gets this which I screen captured for him:
-
Now wtf lol. All I know is that we had a starlight celebration sig made actually from some other poster as a spoof with Titanss's face on it... then the BG name was screen captured and put on the sig... now seriously... really... honestly... how fucking immature is that to get ansy over? lol Like that really is something that merits a ban... again, abuse of power anyone??

I am sure we aren't the only ones that got mistreated like this by BG... if you think about it what is so big about that place anyway? If I felt like it titanss.com can be bigger than them but I am not a nerd with lots of money to blow and connections with the development team... like that really matters since the posters put up majority of the news on that board which makes it sooo popular.

Whenever Titanss posts he generates a HUGE amount of attention and that also equals to exposure to google adsense.... really, Titanss is a gold mine rofl and the funniest poster that ever posted on a FFXI forum. Honestly, Titanss and myself aren't missing BG or even KI really, we think they are uptight and too submissive to the status quo and conformity of idiots who play backseat moderator. LAST time I checked FFXI was suppose to be FUN and players are suppose to be enjoying themselves. Now I am not going to justify every single REAL Troll or nuisances from real bad posters because I've been there done that as a mod and had to warning/ban them-- but Titanss is clearly not a troll or a nuisance because he never starts arguments or makes off FFXI related topics.... just the replies from ppl who ARE off topic is when Titanss is. I am seeing if I can get Titanss to post here exclusively and especially his movies since he isn't appreciated elsewhere...

This is titanss.com tell it how it is.
