"I think this is a legitimate thread, and should be treated seriously."

I think we have final proof he's just being a dick for dick-being's-sake now.

Oh, really, Pandarsenic? If I had a dollar for every time you have insulted me, I would be richer the Warren-freaking-Buffet!

Excuse me for tiring of your nonsense.

diplomat, you must notice that you're annoying almost every single forum participant with your nonsense. You've received rational, well thought out replies from a number of people. You received the just consideration you asked for. Typically only one moderator weighing in on a topic is sufficient...you got all three, and all with the same message.

Your refusal to accept any position that differs from your own, no matter how widely supported, no matter how much you are asked in both kind and unkind words to please stop, is very disrespectful of this community.

It is clear you think this is a legitimate thread. The consensus is that it is not. Please stop harping on this.

Yeah if you count EVERYONE to this point. right now you would have something equal to the USA public debt.

thats 10,024.7billion

last i knew, the national debt was in the trillions.

I thought I would make a small contribution to this thread. I would have no problems with someone asking me for my phone number over this site. If it was someone like Edi who I knew was reputable, I would probably entrust him with it. If not, I would hold it with myself. I agree, one of the biggest problems with this site is in the lack of communication. I myself am guilty of it sometimes, it's hard to log on consistently with my hectic life.

These charges on Edi are rather ridiculous. Diplomat, I have no idea how old you are, but I'm only 15, and I know how to handle myself in a situation like this. Handle it yourself -- don't go screaming bloody murder. "No" is a pretty firm answer. It was after you said no and Edi continued to pressure you I would be more concerned.

Chanter: 10,024.7 billion is also 10.0274 trillion.

10 billion equals 1 trillion? I thought it was 100 billion = 1 trillion.

10 thousand billion, look at the comma dude.

and it's 1000 billion = 1 trillion

I meant 1,000, whoops.

I definitely just had a retard moment. Disregard the above posts about billions and trillions, I'm mathematically challenged. xD

No harm, no foul dude (or is it dudette?)

It is dude. ;)

Oh, by the way, how was the jeep?

The damage estimator comes out Monday (holidays and all). I'm torn between keeping my beloved jeep, and having them total it out so I can upgrade to the V8 Limited or the Hemi SRT8 version.

Lol. Doesn't sound too bad, then. Were you able to transport yourself and the wife on the holidays?

Yeah, we have a rental car costing me about $250 a week right now.

It's not a bad car, a new Chevy Malibu, but it isn't my 4WD Jeep Grand Cherokee.

This thread has improved immensely since you guys changed the subject. Even though I'm not a big fan of jeeps.

I had given diplomat1824 the benefit of the doubt before, but this is too far. Do what you want to him. This is absurd.

to Theghostmaker- communicating out of the site is CHEATING. Its banned! Maybe that's why he's so good at the game!!!!!
--- No its not. Treating someone differently just because you speak off-site is cheating. You can use any methods of communication you want.

Diplomat - Everyone has said it, but this is just ridiculous. Whilst your point is actually based upon a sensible statement, you're just trying to cause outrage aren't you?
I have been asked for more contact information from Edi in the past, and I will freely admit I did not want to give any. However, that doesn't mean he shouldn't be allowed to ask. That's the whole idea of *asking* someone: they can say no! Just because you or I don't want to give out our information doesn't mean he can't ask.

In a word, no. It cannot be cheating because it is totally unenforceable. At this site, because there in no anonymity between games, we simply cannot enforce that rule, and messenger is a very good way of communicating rapidly.

@airborne: "Who started the +/- thing anyways?"

Sioraf ... would you like to explain this one to airborne? ;-)
=============================================
Certainly. A month or two back I decided I'd find out who was the more popular most regular poster on PHP and Play. What I didn't know was the PHPlayers still hated Play's guts and I am a sucker for trivia and failed to realise my question was TOO trivial and let me tell you they ate the head off of me. I had thought the votes would be X +1 etc. but due to a thread about presidents everyone here is more accustomed to giving both - and +. So much of the votes were Sioraf -1 that it became a phrase being used in every thread I would post in and indeed I became the least popular user here. Then one day I posted philcore +1 to see what would happen because philcore was one of the users that posted Sioraf -1 the most. After that bit by bit my rep was improving and then lovely music came to my aid, there was a window open with a stereo on and I viddied right at once what to do. diplomat 1824 showed up and he became the least popular user thus restarting and making even more popular the - and + craze.

Now I lose the game every time someone does a Sioraf -1....

this is absolutely hilarious. someone tried to ban edi birsan...haha.
i think it certainly reveals something about the diplomat's character. he meets the greatest diplomacy player ever and calls him a stalker.

I dont usually enjoy being so crass, but diplomat I really must tell you

shut the fuck up

You're one to talk! Seriously, at least I have political views! You're just a freaking anarchist!

At least he defends his views.
