Really? A new movie, constant conventions, 40 years of television shows, we have a Star Wars thread, but a movie hasn't been made in 3 years. Yeah your logic is about as fool proof as spawing unwanted life...*ahem*
kmc is only what it is today because of the star wars forums. the sw forums are a bit dead now because the hype is over. stop eating paint chips.

I think "stop eating paint chips" might be one of my new favorite phrases.
It's a slightly irrelevant argument anyway. Not only was KMC originally a SW forum...just because there's no more SW movies being made doesn't mean there's not other stuff going on within the franchise.

Not a forum. It was just a reference to how Trick has nut-punched every comic tournament he's ever been in, from the minor annoyances (dropping out once battles have started) to the major (ruining one to the point of collapse), and how he openly mocks those who enjoy taking them seriously.Calling someone out for their mistakes is one thing, if it's intention is to improve the situation rather than just bash. But his remarks did not seem like they were intended as productive, and they struck me a bit hypocritical given his history.
Alright that does it. I smashed ONE tourney. I had to leave Delph's because my partner flaked on me, and I left Red's because I had more important things to do.
Where the hell do you get off characterizing me as ruining tournaments? 😒
I of all people, do not have the right to critizise Lana? HA! I was a poster in the VG versus forum before I posted anywhere else. Do you know how manyposters left the VG versus and why we left? Because Lana let that forum go to hell. Darkstorm Zero left KMC over it. Brainchild, P-Geyser Superboyprime, and myself went to other parts. Alot of the best posters left because she refused to crack down on trolls.
Like when Shin Nikk got warned during a debate where it was obvious the other person was trolling. I didn't like Shin Nikk that much, but it was obvious the other guy he was debating was a troll.
Originally posted by PeachYeah, this is true. Maybe a section just for Star Trek would stir more interest. The Star Trek fan in me would still like to give it a shot. If not a forum then maybe a sub forum in the Movie Franchise forums.
You'd think, but there's so very little discussion on it now.
Trick, you have the nerve to criticize mods?? Your own actions speak volumes about your attitude lately and takes away your credibility. Stop now.
Guys, attacking people for disagreeing with your opinion isn't the way to make a point. The thread was opened to see if there is enough interest. I can say that the arguing in this thread isn't going to reflect positively on any new forum.

I don't think Mods should be beyond logical critique, regardless of how one behaves. That sounds to much like "yeah, sure I am bad...but you are worse". That being said, he obviously didn't put forth logical points and just insulted.
And isn't the arguing part of the idea why this thread is here in the first place. Obviously the arguing has to take place without personal attacks, but the thread is basically a debate as well as a poll about the pros and cons of a Star Trek forum.
screw star trek. i think william shatner should have his own forum

Good thing I covered that then.

You also missed Evangel's tourney, and your mocking tirade against myself and anyone who took them seriously.
If you have specific issues with a mod, take it up in PM. This clearly isn't the place for it. And at this point, 3-4 people have come on to attempt to diffuse the situation, and all you've done is veer further into off-topic bashing. You've gotten warnings already in this thread, so I won't be adding to it, but just step outside of yourself for a moment and realize how unproductive and insulting this is, then either take it to PMs or cease entirely.

Agreed. But like you said, logical critique and bashing are entirely separate, and this was neither the right place for it nor was it intended as reasonable commentary.
