    Count me in for a 1400 word, poorly spelled and grammatically suspect rant about how f---- BLUES (yeah, I said it -- it's not Azure-Americans, it's BLUUUUUUEZZZZ) like Beast are draining our precious ISO reserves and taking good tiles away from God-fearing AMERICANS like Captain America and Ms. Marvel.


    That would be Off-Topic


    See what I did there? =)

    I almost want to petition for this 'cause Off-Topic is too mainstream and doesn't properly reflect my views, because I identify with the topic at hand.

    Speaking of which, I just made an Off-Topic thread that I feel this forum desperately needs.

    I don't expect it to be up long.

    No, you don't. If you have a problem with something a user said to you there are plenty of venues to report said user. You're not entitled to wave around something you deem inappropriate just because it was said to you. There's really no difference between putting that in your signature and the people that make threads about people cheating or those threads where people talk down other users. You didn't like what he did and you were trying to make a spectacle out of him and that's not okay.

    That being said, that's really textbook Tumblr icon_lol.gif Don't like something? Give it a public trial and try to make it feel miserable, so maybe it fit in this thread. icon_razz.gif

    look, so far i've heard this about the sig: 1. it's racist (what?) 2. it violates the board tos (i concede it might) 3. it's a harmless/tongue-in-cheek dig at arondite (my opinion/aim, personally) 4. it's pompous and insulting and publicly humiliating (that's mostly you by the way, and i guess anonymous reporters of the sig).

    fyi, i didn't not like the neg, i just thought it was hilarious. would appreciate you not assigning your own assumptions as to my reasons in future, or asking me privately if you must.

    One signature causing this much drama? now THAT is tumblr.

    We'll just let this die here. My perception was my perception. It seemed to me like you were trying to make a statement by placing it in your signature, which I feel is indeed disingenuous and pompous.. You claim it's not and that's fine - it's gone now anyways so what's even the point of talking it to death? End of the day though, you can't really deny that it was a very good candidate to cause drama by pointing him on the spot like that.


    ALSO DID YOU SEE THE NEW TEEMO SKIN?! It legit does look pretty damn sweet.

    You two disappoint me.

    You just crossed the line from Tumblr to LiveJournal. Never cross that line.
