The most glaring offense that I know of:
http://www.bay12games.com/forum/index.php?topic=46413.msg922867#msg922867Armok tells us about some thing that he found really awesome.
Ampersand makes a joke.
Some other guys talk about some books.
Armok FLIPS OUT:
Are you mocking me? I am dead serous with this, and if you are just going to mock my beliefs it would probably be better if you kept silent, or I'll report it to Toady.
Zironic tries to defuse the situation, and explains that he wasn't mocking him. Then Armok makes some more bizarre statements:
...
Are you likening this to religion?
That's WORSE than mockery.
Some guys yell at him for being hypocritical. Armok's brain starts leaking out of his ears. He starts insulting people.
I don't think anyone here except me actually understood a thing the article said... I thought this community was smart, once.
This enrages people. Ampersand goes so far as to provide a massive point-by-point refutation of Dust Theory. Armok drops out, saying that he won't post a refutation but he's right anyway. Also is sort of patronizing ("I give you credits for trying"?).
I'm lazy and have better things to do than this kind of internet argument. I give you credits for trying, but I think you mised the point of what the article was trying to say.
FIRESTORM. Armok realizes he's only digging himself deeper. He tosses out one last insult and locks it down.
This thread was a mistake and I'm locking it, I should have learnt by now these forums can't handle anything controversial.
