    New Rules, AGAIN!

    Postby Louis the Hedgehog on May 26th, 2009, 6:39 pm

    Again, if you don't know what I'm doing, enter Bill Maher: New Rules into a youtube search.

    Now that's out of the way, let's get started. *Plays theme to real time*
    Troller Wars: New rule, you cannot tell me to get a life if you don't have one of your own. My first video on youtube was trolled by a "guy" who went on about how I fail at life and referred to me with homosexual slurs. This coming form a "guy" who makes videos on youtube about wanting to rap about being a gender confused shemale who is sexually attracted to children, I wish I were joking. Do I even have to explain why that is stupid? It's as if Tom Hanks was called a freak by Tom Cruise! You know, there's a word for people like this...
    Image
    And while we're at it-

    Encyclopedia Dramatica Queenica: New rule, the Eynclopedia Dramatica needs to be disbanded. Now I know what you're thinking. "But Louis, I thought you were in favor of freedom of speech!" This isn't free speech, this is cheap speech from people who clearly need help. I could paint faces on my posterrior and that would be more intelligent than what these people are doing, I kid you not. If blindly insulting everyone you talk about and everyone who talks to you is your definition of freedom of speech, what's your strategy to win a debate? Throwing your own fecies at your opponent? Sorry, but the free market place of ideas is not for you Mr. Peepers.

    I think it's absolutely hilarious how, in a paragraph where you say ED is just "cheap speech" because it blindly insults everyone, you take time out to throw some nice insults at them, and not even terribly witty ones, IMO. But no worries, YOUR insults are TOTALLY different from theirs. Somehow.

    There is a difference. My worst is nothing compared to what these people do. I don't lie through my teeth, criticize people because of their race, religion, sexual orientation, sexual preference, or cheer on mass genocides. Trust me, my stuff is harmless compared to what they do, but don't take my word for it.

    I can vouch for this as fact, considering that I contacted them last year to get my page removed. The staff was nothing more than immature trolls in their 20s no doubt, who thrive off the misery and humiliation of others for profit. I tried to engaging within in a civil manner on how we can compromise, but they were a****** in their response. Theres gotta be a number of violations committed here since their so-called business is a vicious attempt to exercise their malicious and biased agenda while banking off the innocent. Talk about a sick pleasure endeavor. In fact recently they ebegged for people to send them $4,000 to keep their site running. The hypocrisy behind this is that they ridicule people who have paypal donation links or people who ask for money, yet they are just as guilty. Speaking as someone who has been victimized by ED, I actually do agree with Louis. Their site needs to be removed. In addition, the scum that initially created the page should really consider the long term ramifications.

    What disturbs me is that a bunch of ADULTS using this a way to register their hate. News flash! If youre in your 20s and investing your time creating slanderous pages for the sake of "the lolz" then you need to seriously grow the f*** up! It only proves asserts how pathetic and sad your life really is. Resorting to these childish antics wont accomplish anything and it perplexes me that people on the interent can not settle their differences in a civil manner. Anyway, the only action I’m taking against ED as of now, is just simply ignoring it. Even if it is a digital scar that will forever be an embarrassing chapter of my life, that's really the logical solution. Its almost the equivalent of eternal punishment and I don’t think anyone deserves that type of treatment.

    I'm glad that at least someone here agree with me. And trust me, I'm not finished with ED yet. And by the way, anyone inside the fandom who supports ED is a traitor to Sonic. And don't make any excuses for it or say I'm exaggerating. These people believe that Sonic fans belong in hell, I wish I were joking. And the last thing we need are people from INSIDE THE FANDOM to help perpetuate this kind of bull****. In fact, this fandom has been subjected to all kinds of things that are the last of what we need. And again, I cannot stress enough that I know that most people here are not responsible for this. But the offenders know who they are.

    Now that that's out of the way, let's continue.

    YouDud: New rule, Youtube must have a penalty for those who lie about the description of their videos. Do I even have to explain this one? I'm sure that Rick Ashbey is spinning in his grave. But that's because he's never gonna give us........... :cursing: Crap, I can't get that tune out of my head! It messed up my joke!

    ED is fine. It's a satire site. I have stuff about me on ED and I don't give a crap or baaaaw about it like you guys do. It's the internet, grow up and move on with your life.

    Oh, get your hand off it, Rich; you're far from anything that is remotely mature no matter how well you enjoy wording yourself in public to the contrary.


    I ermm... don't get the point of this 'new Rules' thread. You just having a pet peeve cry or something, Louis? I don't know who or what Bill Maher is supposed to be. Me no understand.

    But since I got a life that means I can tell you to go get one of your own, right? Get a life, Louis. :tonguewave:

    Guys, this is not the place for personal attacks -- take it off the board please.

    Louis; you might want to post a link to the series you're referring to, because it's easy for people to misunderstand the reference if they haven't seen it. And thanks for trying to move on from ED -- that one never goes well.

    By the way, Bill Maher is a comedian. He also created the movie Religulous.

    Personally, I think too many rules control the world and not the individual. I never really understood ED though in that sense.

    Because of this I just spent the last ½ hour fishing through stuff on there about this place & FUS. I had no idea there was still so much RAAAGE going on. Also got a bit wigged out and now find it hard to take this debate seriously when I saw AKR in nappies.

    Encyclopedia Dramatica Queenica: New rule, the Eynclopedia Dramatica needs to be disbanded. Now I know what you're thinking. "But Louis, I thought you were in favor of freedom of speech!" This isn't free speech, this is cheap speech from people who clearly need help.


    Actually, it is free speech. You can't say that you support free speech if you don't support freedom for even the speech that you hate.

    But the point you're missing is the fact that just because something shouldn't be against the law, doesn't mean that we have to consider it a good thing. Likewise, not everything that is bad should necessarily be made illegal.

    Hence why I have the freedom not to allow certain speech on my web site if I want, but I can't force you to join my site. Likewise, ED has the freedom to post whatever they want on their site, but can't force you to read it. You and I can't censor ED, because we don't own ED. However, we can certainly argue against their decision to allow certain content on their web site and argue that their policies are ethically wrong. I think ED is awful and should set boundaries on what it is acceptable on their site, and I can say that without being in the least bit opposed to freedom of speech (freedom of speech extends to criticism of speech!).

    If blindly insulting everyone you talk about and everyone who talks to you is your definition of freedom of speech, what's your strategy to win a debate? Throwing your own fecies at your opponent? Sorry, but the free market place of ideas is not for you Mr. Peepers.


    The point of the marketplace of ideas is that the good ideas will win out. So if throwing fecies at your opponent is the idea that you're submitting to the marketplace, then hopefully it won't get too far ;)


    I'd really rather we didn't get caught up in this whole ED thing again. If it turns into another big flap I'll just lock the thread. It's really not appropriate here to begin with.

    I rather like ED, and edit it as often as I can. I hope it never goes away.

    Failcyclopedia could go away, as well as Uncyclopedia (at least be funny).

    I can vouch for this as fact, considering that I contacted them last year to get my page removed.


    AKR, no offence but ligthen up. I have one on Failcyclopedia. The funny thing is, they got my name wrong. They hate me because I troll this one den of jerks on Anonib, and yet, they got the handle I post under wrong. Failcyclopedia lives up to it's name.

    On a lighter note: AKR, love your ED.Is that you with the pacifier? Cute shirt.


    Such bold statements, like traitor. I've never attacked this board and lurked it for a month. In fact, I talk to at least a few people I met on this board. I specifically came here because it lacked drama. If I wanted pow.....nevermind. Let's just say I prefer this place to other Sonic sites. Is it slower? Yes. But thats one of it's strengths. People here are genuine and arn't on power trips or fueled by drama. So I raise an eyebrow when you call anyone who "supported ED" a traitor who's also in the fandom.
