is english your 1st language, L.?

Indeed, it is. I am also (almost) fluent in French.

Why do you ask?

Edited 10/10/2013 20:02:28

gosh. perhaps you read too much dodgy anime, because your writing style is painfully turgid.

Allow me to give some constructive criticism to your last post alone. No no, don't thank me.

"Indeed, it is" is never preferable to "yes" or even a down-home "yep", a slack "yeah" or a laconic "yh". Or for Piggy's sake, a West country "Yarp". Replying to a simple question on a messageboard with "Indeed, it is" makes you sound like a Punch parody of a quaint Victorian lady.

Additionally, with a ten-word comment, there is truly no need for brackets. Either the word is necessary enough to warrant an 11% increase to your word count, and therefore does not require brackets, or it isn't necessary enough, and it shouldn't be in there at all.

Listen sport, I'm only saying this because you're a potentially good writer (and because you're making about 20 posts an hour). But it's like you're playing touch football, and trying to throw a 100-yard pass in every play. It's just too much.

Basically, you write like the Anti-x Capybara (look him up).

X, hwat's wrong with a Punch parody of a quaint Victorian lady? I compose messages on these fine forums in that manner, and everybody loves me.

I like everything neat and in its assigned place. I do not approve of the use of such phrases as 'yh'. Besides, I cannot chuckle at people and their atrocious spelling/grammar if my own is sub-par. Lord knows, everyone hates a hypocrite.
I may be able to pull it down a notch to a simple 'yes', but don't hold your breath. Thank you for your criticism. I have taken it into account.

Edit: The fact that you misspelled 'what' shows that you are a failed Victorian lady, if anything.

Edited 10/10/2013 20:18:54

Funny. I honestly thought you were french. But I don't speak French at all so that's probably why.

The French Warlighters are, no doubt, in stitches over my paltry knowledge of the language.

Besides, I cannot chuckle at people and their atrocious spelling/grammar if my own is sub-par.

There's no dash in "subpar".

Apologies to that preposterous rodent, he at least didn't overuse such tired and hideous phrases as:

in stitches
Lord knows
don't hold your breath
taken it into account
The fact that

But I should be glad that you went three whole posts without using the word "extol". The reason I thought this might not be your native language is because nobody talks like how you write. My second guess, then, being that your reading material is inferior. Go read some literature kiddo. I guarantee that your portentous style is 99% of the reason you were being oinked at.


Yeah I originally wanted to be an English teacher, but was warned that my students would conspire to murder me. Yes, I know that is a hyphen, not a dash. That was a test.

Yeah. The reason is you're being an ass.

You and master l wander around the forums being mightier than thou if you think someones a noob. And congratulating yourselves on your use of grammar.

Beating the a.i is nothing to brag about, if an illuminati member had made this thread you'd likely bang on about that. I mean you come here saying I play for fun. But your quite happy to slate clans because they have no pre-reqs. Well maybe they play for fun too? Or is that defense limited to you?

X, do our society a favor and give it up. I personally extol* his speech patterns, and lament because more people do not talk like him. Clearly, the reason everyone despises him is because of the content of his posts. For heaven's sake, he called my "Icelandic Turtles" clan a "little flick"! How obnoxious. Good day to you, sir.



*Hah! Take that!#IWin

Is that so? It seems I have been living a lie, thinking that subpar was hyphenated. As to my use of words, I can only apologize if they offend you. It is apparent that I cannot live up to the standards Anti-x Capybara has set.

I do read literature, but I am not so narrow-minded as to stick, solely, to one area. I delve into manga here and there and the character of L (from Death Note) was a particular favourite of mine. It would take more reason than that for me to change the way, in which I write. When coming on the forums I expect a few oinkings (as anyone should). It does liven things up a little, I must admit.

haha I wouldn't suggest that as your ideal career path. The subject is severely lacking in today's curriculum anyway. I find it can be overly analytic and, for me, it would ruin my enjoyment of the piece of writing.

I thought I had made clear already, I did not make this thread to brag about besting some AIs. I also made clear that I was all for clans that are open to everyone, it is the individuals that are in the clan that bother me. Most people do play for fun, but I don't like the way people like Hidden Hand parade around like they're better than the Warlight rabble.

Which you'd never do. Mr I beat the a.i in less than moves than gold standard! I want a better star.

LOUD NOISES!!

@Ska,

You obviously lack basic comprehension of my posts and possibly others. You seem to do that a lot, picking fights wherever you can. You've done that with Apollo too, it's tedious. When did we all hit your shit-list?

I slated the Illuminati clan for boasting and the multiple invites and let me remind you, I'm not the only one. I also think that Hidden Hand and Righ are trolls and don't mind sharing that opinion with them and others.

Mightier than thou? Just because I think before I type and do my best to write clearly enough to be understood doesn't mean I think I'm better than anyone. It just means I'm putting more effort into my posts than most on the forum do. Using appropriate grammar isn't that difficult if you're not lazy.

Also, who did I call a noob? If you're going to say I'm being an ass or calling someone a noob why don't you take the time to quote an example instead of slandering me? I'm the first one to know that I can be beaten and that I still have a lot to learn.

You're being a hypocrite, bashing me for something that 1. I am not doing and 2. You're doing by bashing on me.

Read something until you understand it, think about it and then comment on it. Don't just misunderstand something and make the worst of it you possibly can because you're butt hurt and wanna blow some steam at someone.

Hauptman logic: someome doesn't agree with my post ... therefore they be trolls who go around picking fights.

Yeah the apollo thing, you go making your oh well 101st were never like that. I pointed out Alex's early forum appearances were arguably worse. Alex asks oh you have a history book please show me. I show him. You get from that I'm picking on alex and you.

There is everything you need to know. By all means keep on thinking anyone not agreeing with you is picking a fight or trolling you. I'm fine with that. I live in a world where I don't need everyone to agree with me.

Polish Logic : I didn't thoroughly read this thread, therefore all that matters is potato.

You're trolling because you're misinterpreting things I say and slandering me, not because you disagree. Also, because you resort to childish antics when you disagree with someone instead of showing some maturity and talking about it. That's my logic.

I don't think Illuminati is a troll clan, I think they're annoying. I don't need an Iron Cross or Platinum Star for going above and beyond the call of duty, but it would be nice, why not??

I read through the link you provided on that thread. Alex didn't state what the requirements were until later and yes they were lower than they are now, but he always had some. His early appearances weren't what they are today, but they weren't as arrogant as Illuminati's entrance. He's gotten better and with his improvement the standards of the clan has risen. I think a noob clan or a tutoring clan would be an amazing idea. Just try not to come off as some kind of bad ass and act cool.

I don't have a problem with you disagreeing with me, I have a problem with you twisting my words and worse, adding words I never said :P

Dude that's because you're so sensitive half the time you read comments and just assume they are aimed negatively at you. So then you go of and type out a story ... bit sad when half of you're essays go on about reading your own posts.

If you had really read the link you'd have saw it was the second recruitment thread he'd put up. The first one I'll say again was "new idea, regiments join pl0x"

You say I'm aggressive and a troll and blah blah but really this is just smoke because you don't seem to know how to handle someone who holds a point of view counter to your own.

You say I'm aggressive towards you, if i reply to any thread not agreeing. But really! Read some of what you type:

"Stop displacing the frustration of your life's failures and shortcomings on people who are happy about something they achieved."

"Also, because you resort to childish antics when you disagree with someone instead of showing some maturity and talking about it."

Just a couple of examples, from this thread aimed at different people, but they illuminate your penchant for real life insults. And yet you have the gall to call others aggresive or trolls for the heinous sin of not typing comments that agree with your own.

This is getting quite melodramatic.

@Ska - You seem to ignore a good deal of the arguments we place before you.

I countered all the jabs you made, yet when you took it upon yourself to whip out another rebuttal, the results were a little sad. As you could not think of a reasonable sounding comeback to mine you just went for a childish dig. 'You think you're better than everyone with your gold stars' or something pathetic like that. We've been over this a few times already. Read the thread. I did not make it just to brag about winning level 3. I'm always on the lookout for possible new achievements, not just for myself, but for the Warlight community. You see what you want to see, and it is, decidedly,not pretty.

Dude that's because you're so sensitive half the time you read comments and just assume they are aimed negatively at you. So then you go of and type out a story ... bit sad when half of you're essays go on about reading your own posts.

Most of your comments on threads like this are aimed negatively at either me or Hauptmann, so it is a pretty safe assumption for him to make. His messages only do that, because people like yourself cannot help but thinking up petty slights and pouncing on any area they can refute. You keep arguing, we do the same. It is a vicious cycle.

I wasn't there when Apollo appeared on the scene and have not read the threads so I cannot really comment.

You say I'm aggressive and a troll and blah blah but really this is just smoke because you don't seem to know how to handle someone who holds a point of view counter to your own.

And you do? Again, you dodge the point to return with this ridiculous statement. Anyone who's views counter your own with a good point on their end, you tend to ignore and focus on the slightly weaker parts of their barrage.

Just a couple of examples, from this thread aimed at different people, but they illuminate your penchant for real life insults. And yet you have the gall to call others aggresive or trolls for the heinous sin of not typing comments that agree with your own.

There is everything you need to know. By all means keep on thinking anyone not agreeing with you is picking a fight or trolling you.

Your problem is you think you know better than everyone else. Do not try to turn this back on me, I am merely defending myself on my own thread.
