Anyway, I digress. But aside from the obvious issue of account longevity, this has become my absolute biggest problem with KMC. Lord knows I've been guilty in the past of using "bias" as a thread-killer, but I look back and see that it was such an indescribably petty and foolish tactic: as if anyone here isn't biased in one form or another about a character or two or as if having a bias automatically means you're wrong. It's probably been my singular KMC-related pet peeve for years and I've done my best to remove myself from such conduct. Clearly bias exists and can impede a discussion; that's why I don't debate with the likes of SW_LeGenD. But among the rest of us civilized folk, I see no reason why we can't have an honest conversation without it boiling down to "WELL YOU LIKE [Sidious/Ragnos/Nihilus/etc.] SO UR BIASED AND UR ARGUMENT IS STUPID MWAHAHAHA", as it so often threatens to do. I've complained about it in various threads and under multiple accounts since Gideon's banning, but it seems like it's a trend that isn't going away anytime soon and until it does, there's no point in expressing opinions that dissent one way or another.

Until then, I'll stick to the new place.

Dude, calm down. He just said that he didn't think Blax was going to budge. I guess this is just really bad timing because other than LeGenD no-one refuses to argue anymore by accusing their opponent of bias. I don't see how this is that big of a problem.

Nah, like I said, this remains a frequent problem.

I've never really noticed it then. I dunno man, I guess you should ***** at Moose if it bugs you that much.

Oh no, this one is VERY special. The guy who posted the video at the bottom of the last page.

Oh, that young lady has been on my ignore list for practically all day.

Very wise.

This is an entirely useless way of evaluating people.

"X created relic Y, which gives power well beyond Z. X is nothing, because without their relics they cannot be objectively measuredapparently must be weak as kittens, never mind that they had the knowledge and mastery to make such relics. We'll also gloss over the fact that almost all of the cosmic level uber Force traits are Sith-only and a large part of those descending from or belonging to almost exclusively the ancient Sith, their immediate heirs, and less frequently their chosen heirs. Also, because Simus didn't deflect a blaster bolt with his head that was pulled on him by his apprentice, you know, a weapon not found in the Sith empire at that time (As Sadow marks it is a largely inferior weapon) he must therefore be a moron. This is where I totally ignore lower showings by other greats, such as Darth Sidious being chucked over his desk and chair like an old newspaper."

Context is important. I didn't bother to nitpick your assessment because quite frankly I know you wouldn't budge an inch. But that statement was just begging to be corrected. Exar Kun has exponential amounts of Dark side power and rage because of his amulets. Exar Kun as a Sith is -never- without his amulets. Therefore, it is illogical to argue Sith Lord Kun is weak without his amulets, because we literally have no bar to measure him against in that context. Your argument falls flat.

No.

Now why didn't I say that? mmm

I was going to write out a proper reply, but then, you know... it's not like he's going to budge anyway.

You love the sound of your own voice typing too much.

Trolled? Nay, it was the most grievous thrashing I've ever experienced. I tremble like a schoolgirl about to be devirginised at the memory of it, for that is how it seemed. He violated me with his gargantuan logiks and superspectacular debatory skillz.

I can see what youre typing, idiot. IVe been online this entire time. You fool.

I know. I wanted you to see it. To know that you are but an insignificant speck before me. Right before. I take you.

In your bumhole.

You're a bum and a moron.

What? No, fvck you. You can't deny your feelings for me Ray. I can call you Ray right? Its obvious Ray. You want this. You want me.

In. Your. Bum. Ray.

Precognition doesn't matter if you can't actually move your lightsaber in time to block or dodge an attack. If anything, I would say that countering someones attacks is probably the best way to show that you're as fast as someone.

That is kind of a retarded thing to say, admittedly. I can kind of see his angle, though.

Just because Bane can react and counter her attacks doesn't show that he is faster or even the same speed.

Ares thinks you is stupid
