Just for the record - i justify the locking of the thread in question by the right of pre-emptive action. I didnt like the way the thread was/is going. I'll be keeping a VERY close eye on it.

I wanna flame Dak now.

alas we're not in a perfect world where the species of moderators face extinction and the anarchists have taken over. one can still wish however.

Oh yes, set the boards on fire for random ppl's entertainment :roll: If you guys want quality flaming, go visit the brawlhall or something. I wont allow anything more than a heated discussion on my shift ;p

"Shits".

Okay. You don't "write shits" about someone, you write shit about them. Plural ('shits') form is generally only used to describe shitting alot ("I've got the shits"). Just to clear that up! Now if anyone has any good Deutsch or Polski tips for me, fire away.

How aboot Russian?

мои туфли воняют как комбинация жопы Жирного Ублюдка из Остина Поверса и Фред Дёрст

Translation: my shoes stank like a nasty-ass combination of Fat Bastard's from austin poewrs' ass and Fred Durst

Oh, and Base said that when I wrote: "Rasmil, du kannst sucky-sucky meine eisenpenis", it was funny, but not the most grammatically correct sentence ever written in german... better than both iko and dr-uff tho... i could now be one of billions of russian immigrants in germany, being on the dole and living in a small "russian town" block of flats

on topic:

Rena... im glad that you aint left yet... if u want to play Return to Castle Wolfenstein (i got versions 1.0 1nd 1.5 i believe)... hit me up on MSN

@ Apache... that was the best form of sarcasm ever, the oh-so subtle type that also can double as a serious statement at the same time, like it did here... Us Brits are the best in the World for sarcasm

finallly... i say that most threads are justifiably locked on the occasion that they are locked... but it sometimes feels more like censorship, than flame preventing...

However i cant really criticise Mad or Wax and term (and any other mod/admin which might show up ), its why they are here...

finally... its not like a flame war is going to do any serious damage, i actually enjoy participating when i do... mostly because there are certain guidelines and a stencilled order to the actual order of the flame, and there are much scarier things in life than two people trying to fling lumps of shites, even though they live in different countries or even parts of the world

Verdict: there is great moderation, sometime it's a little over-enthusiastic, but it is not killing anyone, so i say a good old-fashoned "fuck it"

(at this point i dont even understand my own opinion on this, cos it has changed 3 times... maby thatswhy im not sa good as i used to be in essay writing )
