Not curbstomping, just beating them in general. You can suffer as many losses as possible and it doesn't matter. All that matters is winning at the end.

Unless you're playing a game. In which case, it's all about the fun. 😛

In that, trying to muscle the US Government with e-terrorism is never going to ****ing work for Anonymous and they are stupid to try. Wars are not just fought with force, but with tact, intelligence, etc. So rather than resorting to cyber terrorism, which will probably just inflate the problem, the problem could be attacked in productive ways.

What are you talking about here?

That's cute. :3

Also, I say that random question stuff you were pulling. Scream is my apprentice, not you. uhuh

Lol.

Exactly. Which is why my first post on the matter is "Are they retarded?" E-terrorism should never have been a choice because it leads to a war they can't win. Peaceful protest, logical arguing, all that jazz is what is needed.

Winning at all costs doesn't really matter much if you're playing a game.

Who are you talking to?

I was talking to EA before you stuck your horn between our posts. uhuh

And was seriously hoping this topic wouldn't be on this new page. *sigh*

Faulty logic that depends on the bully being someone who backs down from the first punch. They might be, they might not be. If a bully hits you, you hit back, there really is no way to predict if that bully won't proceed to beat the shit out of you for touching them. The only way to win, via violent solutions, is to hit the bully so hard that not just him but everyone will know not to fvck with you. Problem? If you're scrawny, you'll have to put more effort into it. 😛

I'm curious how you went from 'they might back down' to 'the only way to win is to utterly destroy them.'

Yeah I'm honestly having trouble following Aura's thought process and his actual point.

On another note, Jesus ****ing tapdancing Christ Terry Pratchett's daughter is hot.

"They might back down" requires you to gamble on them being the type that rationalizes the need to stop bullying you.

"Completely and utterly beating the shit out of them" takes that gamble away. 😮

I'm so tired I feel like I'm gonna puke, so I could just be really misreading his post.

Google here I come.

Theres a chance you can win with the first way though. So it makes no sense to say that the second way is 'the only way to win'.

Want some soup?

Chance is not something to bother with in terms of a hypothetical. The only way to determine whether the bully would back down or not depends on the characteristics of the bully.

And I was giving them the intelligence of a piece of cardboard. :3

No, I have sleeping tablets. I just need ot stay awake for a few more hours so I can hand in my dissertation. Also I need to add about 200 words to the conclusion./

Wait why would i think soup would send me to sleep?

Idk. I'm wide awake and have to go to jury duty. 😮

Well you live in like the stinky old USA so I've been up 4 more hours than you due to time difs. 😛

There is a reasonable chance that the bully, who could very well have been forced to try to fight off a two hundred pound drunken man in his shitheap of a home all his life, could kick the shit out of you in a fight though.

It really doesn't matter if they are bigger. All that matters is winning within the state of war. Break his nose, kick him between the legs, fvcking rip out his eyes if you have to. Just win.

Or, if it really isn't possible to win, then don't do anything. Yet anyway.

Who said anything about size? I'm pointing out that the whole "Bullies are universally pussies who fight about as well as a limp-wristed five year old girl" mentality isn't necessarily true.

And yeah man, rip his eyes out, get that felony on your record early on, so that you can experience the bullshit of the justice system before your balls drop!

Indeed. Which is why the idea of hitting them, to whatever degree, will make them respect you humors me. If you're going to fight, make sure you can actually win.

Well it was during a fight, that said bully is, I'm assuming, instigated. No self-defense? o.O

Mind you, this is all moot. The best solution is to simply not fight at all and attempt to work things out peacefully. The boring option but whatever works.

No sleep ever.

But yeah, anonymous trying to fight people cracking down on the internet by giving them reasons to crack down on the internet is uh... 😐

^Short version of my opinion.

and attacking the white house was especially stupid since Obama was against SOPA to begin with.

Actually the best option is probably just to follow them home and slit their throats while they're asleep. Then you know they won't be starting no more shit.

Nah, obviously you meant to gut them, when everyone knows the throat is much more efficient.
