As for my statement, I didn't pretend to be an expert. I only said in a friendly tone what I was very sure about. I simply made a small mistake and mixed MLeonard with Yin. Now, where's all the understanding for such small mistake?

I checked it as I was abit confused as you said it was wrong after my first statement, so I went to Archive.org and looked up ACS Forums there. And as the screenshot shows you, yin26 was moderator for those two forums. Now, are you still going to keep on laughing? Because in the light of the facts, I seem to be correct. Unfortunately my own memory is abit bad from events in the year 2000, but I do remember something.

A thread about being an intellect isn't really a thread I would care about too deeply. If I did, I wouldve started a thread about it.

I've accepted your reasoning and am simply applying it here. Your spamming AND trolling. You've told me that these things cause threads to be closed...So therefore would you not close (or even delete!) this thread? The logic is there....now unless you have some OTHER reason to keep it alive......

Tass,

trolling and spam by Ming will never leed to any real actions as the quite recent events showed us. So you can also forget about seeing this thread closed or erased. He's Ming. Period.

It's only your opinion Tas... so you are welcome to it.

And Ras... he might have been "listed" as a mod, but he was really a staff member as keeper of the lists. He was given power to organize the lists, not be a moderator. He wasn't a mod like the rest of the mods. So again, your knowledge is lacking at best. You see things, but you don't really understand them.

No Ming, it is fact. You have stated to me that these things are unacceptable and that the mods dont like playing such games, and for you to begin doing is it nothing short of hypocritical.

So if you can't accept the truth, then just say so Ming. Dont try to ignore it with "Its just your opinion". As you told me: Be a man about it.

Ras: So far that seems to be the case, however I still have faith that Ming has another reason for keeping this thread alive. It must be a very good reason too, because the circumstances for closing it have now exceeded that in which other threads () were closed.

If that's an understatement for you weren't even here back then, then I guess that's true...

A while ago you stated (repeatedly, IIRC) that you registered in late '99 and then pretty much immediately forgot about this site again, only to rediscover it a few months ago.

Nothing wrong with MY memory...

Nahhh.. Spam is in the eye of the beholder. It is not fact, but opinion. And frankly, some people's opinions are worth more than others

And Ras... you seem to forget I was suspended for my past actions. I did the crime, and did the time. Unlike many, I didn't whine about it. I took resposibilities for my actions and paid the price.

Though Spam is Spam, I'll conceed that point to you as I can see where your coming from? But how about the trolls? Sorry, but you cant make the same "opinion" arguement on trolls....

And its quite evident that you are trolling. But before I continue with presenting evidence, I'll give you the oppritunity to admit that your trolling or deny it completly.

Excessive use of smilies, very odd wording in collaberation with those smilies, and then getting a response which has POINTED OUT these things to you , you still do it...Sorry ming, but thats a troll

However, if your honestly not looking for a response and you geniuenly want to help Rasbelin, then simply post something like this:

"< simply present the correction >. "

instead of

"

An expert......

"

Because as you may not know, that would provoke a response. So simply offer your correction without smilies (The occasional is acceptable) and then bow out.

That is, if your intentions are pure in heart which I HIGHLY doubt

But you know that it provokes a response, as has been demonstrated for QUITE a while now If you dont....Well.....I won't comment on that But now you do. It's arrogent and rude and if your truely innocent, you wouldn't quite have done it But that is assuming your as pure as you say you are

And you still haven't addressed the way you worded things and you making off-hand comments when you were "innocently trying to correct someone"

(Also....Just because someone gets "Legend" status on something means very little Thats a highly flawed counter-arguement, Ming )

What a nice cop out. Though I believe we can do better than that...Maybe a "Case closed!" ?

Edit: Also would everyone stop calling me "Tas"?! Either Tass or Tassadar is fine with me

As I said, Apolyton shall never be too big.

(This should have been a poll.)

Why? Bigger = Better. Think about it. Everything that's bigger is better.

If you need an example, I'll be happy to look up your local asylum's phone number so they can put you away.
