Since when is Sidious uber?

You pretty much just destroyed your entire response.

You need more evidence with your cup of tea kid? More proof in the old ash tray there? If people result to gaining confidence, self esteem or god help us, an ego in real life through disputing the most trivial and moot points, then good for them, I am glad, however, I really do pity them. You call me ignorant, a baseless fact, and do I mind? No I do not, as I am quite aware I have taken no measures to find out who you are. Likewise, I would love to see the humour you might inject into a post, yet on evidence of your previous efforts, I see the human equivilant of a very slow going egg timer looking back at me.

Do me a favor and actually discuss this logically. I called you 'ignorant', and you tell me that I have no basis for doing so. Then you go on to say that you have 'taken no measures to find out who you are'. Quite silly. I called you ignorant [meaning "uninformed", if you didn't know] because you don't know me, and proved so by assuming things about me, which you proved to be true. So, really, your ignorance of me is not baseless, and it appears to be true.

The lesson: don't assume.

Please, do not embarass yourself by feeling the need to assure fellow posters that you are in fact, a very socially active and confident being, but please, take this business less seriously. Debate when the need arises, not when you feel the world warrants an interrogation. Write to entertain and inform, to humour, do not write to lecture, to argue. Star Wars is meant to be enjoyed, not preached, and I know I'd rather be the italian philosopher from 16th century Renaissance Venice smokin' opium than the ill fated nuclear physician from some military installation in northern europe.

When you visit this forum, in a thread like this (or in any thread), you debate. I enjoy Star Wars, as do the people who debate it. However, we also enjoy debating it - thus the flaw in your entire diatribe. So, by debating Star Wars, we are actually exercising its purpose: to entertain. And so we are.

Likewise, when you start a debate with someone, please know what the hell you're doing. Based on 'previous experiences', you don't know how to debate.

Sorry, but no. You made a statement, I made a statement. That's where it should have ended. Asking me for proof on this is just plain ridiculous. I never asked, and never will ask, you to back up your stance on this. I'd be appreciate it if you'd do the same for me.

I see, Glentract, so you're in the habit of making statements and not supporting them when called out? Surely you must see how funny that sounds. But, I know the difference: I can back up what I say. In this case, you can't.

Edit: Pardon, I breached a cardinal rule I just lectured Exanda on. I 'assumed'. Excuse me, Glentract, I should say (rather) that you either "can't" or "won't" for some odd reason.

I don't like to be hypocritical, apologies.

Damn well better apologize.

This thread sucks.

Alright now I'm just confused. What happened with Exanda?

Basically Avis asked when the most common method of thinking around here shifted. It's a question, not grounds for a SW debate. Therefor in this situation I don't feel compelled to provide evidence for the statements I make answering his questions.

I apologize x2 for you, my master. 🙁

Then let me ask: do you actually have proof and are unwilling to share it in the risk of starting an argument, or do you simply lack it and just want this to be your opinion?

Why do you care so much Gideon?

Why are you curious?

Because. You are humping this issue like a dog in heat.

Yes, I have proof. I'd reckon that I could put up a hell of an argument if I felt reason to do so. However, I lack the energy for extended debates these days in most instances and I see no reason to defend people who honestly don't give a ****.

Right. Well, here's your answer: I like to debate with people. I like to prove a point. If there's a point that conflicts with mine, and I feel that I can argue it, I will.

I hope that's not an issue with you or anyone else.

But Glentract has already expressed the fact he does not want to debate you. why press the issue?

Look it's Janus Myspace! 😱

She has a nice ass.

LMAO! That must be him.

Gideon kid, lets take this back to the beginning shall we? You call me ignorant. Yet, you know nothing about me. Now, let's take another step back shall we? Who is the ignorant one here? The ones who is ignorant enough to assume that the other is ignorant, or the one who sees the ironic value in whats being said?

No, I really shouldn't be dealing out the lectures here, but I will give it a go if all I find is uninteresting debates on how one C-canon character can, and I quote "WTFpwn" end quote, another C-canon character.

Yet you seem to be missing my point and a very simple point it is. Liven up. That's right. You heard it here first. Take this less seriously. My point, is that I want ot be entertained by reading this. In the Janus-era I was. And it wasn't crude internet-bred acronyms doing the dirty work. There were generally funny people around who knew how to make people laugh. My post was no debate, no score to settle, it was simply a memoir of a time when KOTOR nostalgia was from in peoples minds, people realised the Prequel films were some of the most awful films ever made and they knew how to crack a joke.

Something went very wrong along the way. Tell me, are you an echo of the Great KMC Forum Purge following the Trekkie-Jedi Civil War?

First of all, I wouldn't consider the Antedeluvians "naer genii" as Escape so eloquently puts it, but a bunch of psuedointellectuals that have too much time on their hands so they decide to debate about pointless philosophical topics on the internet, all the while insulting anyone who doesn't agree with their insignificant views. If I want liberal rhetoric and propaganda, I'll get it from some of my teachers.

This is really a great POV.

And I would like to point out that worst part of debating now-a-days is the insults that some people toss around too much. And Star Wars is not a subject in which one should extensively resort to insults. Even some current top Star Wars debators of KMC do not realize this.

Zephiel is however one guy that I respect. He has the nerves to speakout against bad happenings.

Sheesh. I remember that debate with Kadesh over nihilius and if his power is instantaneous. Kadesh just went all out on the insults like a fukcing 10 year old would. But Zephiel kept his cool.
