Whatever brah, they were still off-topic and besides, you're doing that politard thing in this thread where you argue everything ad nauseum instead of just moving on.

Also, arguing is politarding now? You're grasping at straws, brah.

Can sta just be allowed to post in the LOL Canada thread again? It'll be like 1 v 50 anyway.

Right now, he's just being an attention whore drama queen.

For those of you who hate the thread, good news you only have to deal with it for a little while more and then it'll be gone forever.

But what happens if Canada makes more lols after the Olympics are over? WHERE DO WE POST THEM THEN!?!?!?!? (I vote threadzilla)

The only ones politarding it up were canadians afaik (or canadian sympathizers). This would be like assessing technical fouls based on crowd behavior of two guys wearing away jerseys.

It's hard not to feel sympathy. It's definitely not empathy though.

Indeed.

One workaround is to make all the Americans moderators. That way the thread will be locked but they can still post in it.

how come anatta says w/e and nobody ever ban him what gives?

dear self:

thank you for your question anatta get asked that a lot. anatta says what he wants cause he drinks and we understand that he get kinda scary. if we ban anatta we fear a 6 rebirth penalty. not really sure what that is, but mods suspect its not a good thing. anatta is also the goat poster and suspending him is like suspending babe ruth for hot dogs and beer. anatta gonna goat post mod scare not a damn thing anyone can do about it. biatch.

love,

anatta.

Anatta has two infractions all time. Shockingly they are both from the politics forum.

Shouldn't you have been banned for trolling my Table Tennis topic? You had nothing to add, just slated off Boris' olympic centrepiece

Thread title - Table Tennis - check

Already a thread on Table Tennis - nope

From page 2 (100 posts pp LDO) of the cricket thread...

There has always been a huge difference between what a solid first class pro gets and an established international (and also between them and the real stars). Now, the gulf is even bigger though county players can hit a minor jackpot of their team wins a global t20 game. Players like Warner of Oz wouldn't be known anywhere now without t20 but he can expect to earn a godamn fortune over his career and he may never play a test match.

if you disguise your trolling in semi-coherent sentences with the appearance of superficial wisdom, the mods look the other way. i recommend it. also refer to yourself in the 3rd person.
