Subject: It's Settled!!

Five Tenets of Bungie.net Forum Life:
1. Trolls will always be well fed.
2. Blame-ability thy name is stosh.
3. Bungie has no control over retail prices.
4. Watch out for low-flying defense drones.
5. Seven is not optional, but rather, an inevitability.

Its great to feel like a moron!!! Now I know what it's like to be you for every god damn day of your insignificant sack sucking life! Thank you for renewed vigor in idiocy.

Why do y'all get so upset about moronic insults? I don't understand how the most appropriate response is to spit out more of the same meathead crap. I just don't see how the appropriate response can be anything other than either ignoring it or pointing out how stoopid it it, as I'm doing now. Can someone explain this to me? I'm totally clueless.


I'm not upset, I'm joking around on a forum. I don't know these people, nor care to, therefore have no reason to get upset. Obviously retarded 14 year olds can't handle it, and get too attached to forum personalities. That should clear things up.

Noise-
I guess I was talking mostly to Cannon, who seems quite upset.

Cannon-
If you were talking to me, thanks. I'm glad that I've made a positive difference in someone's life.

I'm the kinda guy that gets pissed off really easily. I don't like being insulted and -blam- like that. Now, if you had told me that you weren't insulting me, I wouldn't have said those things. I've had a stressful night listening to everyone's -blam!-ing and doing a little bit of -blam!-ing myself. I'm especially pissed off at the way Obbiquiet claimed that she was absolutely perfect. I just want to forget this -blam-. Maybe Greenchief was the smartest one of all. He got out before the -blam- hit the fan. The Flood is getting worse everyday. I think new boundaries need to be put up and all that crap to prevent another mishap like this from happening again. I am not attached to this online personality of mine. Sure it gives me a little bit more freedom, but in the end I know this isn't the real world and will walk away smiling, cause if it was we'd all be -blam!-ED. And I sincerely ask the moderators to please close this craphole down. Things were said, hurtful things, people were pissed off, and this subject should never darken someones computer screen again. If you think anything about this, make a topic about it. I'm never gonna look back here. You people got something to say to me, PM or a topic will be the only way. So all in all, if your not ok in my books, screw you. If you are, howdy-doody.

Eh. If I mean to insult anyone, I'll say it real clear. There should be no doubt. I've said this before, so I think I'll put it in my sig so I don't have to again here.
I dunno about the worse every day thing, though. I haven't been seeing much more flamey stuff, but I have seen lots more interesting philosophical stuff. I think it's an acceptable trade.

Your right. I shouldn't have said what I said, and now that I look back on it, there are tons of things I would have done differently, like not post here. This was a stupid topic, and every time Greenchief makes a message, it usually ends up in a flame war like this one. I'll know not to ever post on anything (if he does come back) that Greenchief makes. Same goes for Bring the Noise. Well, Mods, shut this damn thing down!!!!!

And I wasn't talking to you when I was talking about being insulted, Forumrunner.

Most IQ tests are based on time, which is something that shouldn't be used when trying to gauge intelligence.

I've heard this point argued before and I disagree.

Intelligence is how well you can assimilate and apply information. Speed is a huge factor in that.

Consider: If time did not affect your score anyone could get a perfect score. Anyone can solve a puzzle if given enough time.

Exactly my point of it being good Green left. You won't read my posts? I'm hurt. My posts are rated R anyway child. Had you had half a brain and gotten my joke you wouldn't have made yourself look so stupid, and reflect poorly on 14 year olds. Telling somebody to suck your sack isn't the way to go. Especially when you are 14 and your balls haven't dropped yet.

I disagree. There is a limit to what a person can formulate. They can have all the time in the world and not be able to grasp some concept or another.

Will any human ever be able to fully comprehend the 4th dimension? Nope.

I expected better from you.

We cannot understand the fourth dimension because it is one of the things our universe is built upon. We are a part of the universe. The reason why we cannot ever understand it is because we cannot observe it from a perspective outside the universe.

Again: How fast your mind works is a huge indication of your intelligence.

If both Sally and Betty take the same math test and get the same exact score, but Sally finishes a full five minutes before Betty, it will be an indication that Sally is more intelligent [they have the same knowledge to start with - Sally's mind just works faster].

Actually you said Sally finished first, so wouldn't Sally's mind work faster?

Yeah, my mistake. Brain fart.

Sally's brain is faster. My bad.

I disappoint a lot of people; lower those expectations.

We can't observe outside of our universe yet.

That works fine as an analogy as long as you're looking at one-answer questions. Which is another reason why IQ tests are flawed. Just because an answer is a correct answer, it doesn't mean it's the best possible answer.

We never will be able to. In order to observe something you must have time. You cannot observe time without being in time.

Like? I've never taken an IQ test that didn't always have one correct answer.

What is the best way to build a bridge, in a given location, with a set limit of materials, and a finite budget? What move should you use to counter your opponent's Qxd6? How could Star Wars I & II not have sucked? Those are questions that can test a persons intelligence, and have less than the best answers due to time constraints.

Indeed they can test a person's intelligence, and I agree with the reasons why those are bad: However, I have never seen an IQ test that asks a question like that for that VERY reason. To be accurate IQ tests ask questions with ONE possible correct answer.
