Mods! SMAC Fanatic Death Threat. Support Apolyton, buy Galactic Civilizations: Deluxe Edition

That's the second reference to killing me the same thread. So much for free thinking around here, I guess.

-----
"Despite the results of the poll, I think it should be obvious to everyone here that Wiglaf and his tiny 'army' of supporters are so massively in the minority here that it's actually laughable. Therefore, it should be easy to deduce that, since they know their 'views' cause outrage and massive dissent, they're doing it only for the attention.

They thrive on it. Sad individuals like them don't listen to reasoned argument. They seriously need psychological help, and I for one hope they get it. Soon.

Back on topic, I'd like to thank Ted Striker, H Tower, Immortal Wombat, Stefu and everyone else who has worked so hard to refute Wiglaf's insane arguments. Let's all remember that in less humane and tolerant times he would have probably been taken out and shot.

Isn't that a nice thought?
"

Warn him or something, it's getting out of hand. All I've suggested were sanctions and a cancellation of an alliance, and I definitely didn't threaten anyone personally like that.

MOOOOOOOODDDDSSSSSSSS! The topic is reasonable and is thought provoking except for that moron.

I don't care how much of an ass you think I am, either. I never lashed out at someone so violently.

1) That wasn't a death threat. A death threat would be "Wiglaf, I'm finding you and killing you"

All I've suggested were sanctions and a cancellation of an alliance,

2) Your thread title is "Should we bomb the "Allies"?"
quote:

and I definitely didn't threaten anyone personally like that.

No, you only threatened the peace of the western world, and the lives of everyone living there. Thats ok, cos its not personal.

can we have the name of wiglaf's thread chnaged to "Wiglaf is a troll"? It would be a more accurate title for it.

is much different from

"the uk isn't a real ally, they deserve sanctions, warnings, and potentially bombs like the ones used against the taliban, because anyone not with us is against us."

My arguement had a point and a meaning, and was going somewhere; SMAC Fanatic was being WAY out of line, wishing me dead like that. Not only was it not related to the thread, it was obviously generated because of his lack of debate skills on the matter. He fell back on a threat, maybe out of frustration. I dunno.

Nice of you to defend him, though.

I'm not defending him, I'm pointing out grammatical details.
It wasn't a threat. He was merely pointing out a historical fact(?), albeit a dodgy one. Its like saying, if SMAC Fanatic was a sheep we could eat him. Its not a threat, its not saying "I wish you were a sheep so I could eat you" its just stating a point.

that wasn't a threat. the whole sentance is: "Let's all remember that in less humane and tolerant times he would have probably been taken out and shot. " In no way whatsoever did he threaten you with that sentance.

If you start taking things out of context, you miss the entire point of the post.

Either way you're a muppet

::sigh::

Tower, you aren't even effective at acting completely immature. Read the full quote, but somehow I think you already have.

In any event, Crunch, what's with the muppet deal?

Well what Smac Fanatic did wasn't a good idea (don't make fun of/insult a person if you want to continue debate in any way) but it wasn't anywhere near a death threat.

It looks as close to a death as the one that got CPoulos restricted for a week, ie not very.

well at least natan was a little rational

lefty, generally anyone who posts 'I'd be happy if someone shot you' is a bit on the wild side and should at least be warned or something. the thread was intellectual and interesting; what the fanatic said was downright screwed up.
