To do what? I wasn't joining in the dogpile on you, I was saying this derailment of the thread is a mess ad makes my eyes hurt.

Edit: as does my own inability to spell complex words like "and".

Ah, well, I can respect that at least. Apologies for the hostilities towards you then, my mistake.

The economy sucks, infantry life sucks, after getting discharged you probably will have to fight hard to get your benefits and unless you go to school you will be thrown out into the world without any real marketable skills, so the most you can hope for is to catch a lucky gig as a day manager at a restaurant franchise.

Well, from the way you talk and act you might either want to join the military to do something with your life or go to school, assuming you can learn, and become something. You could certainly use some lessons in grammar because every time you post I have to re-read what you type. It's like you don't know how to speak properly.. it could be some frontal lobe damage.. perhaps a lack of education? Who knows, but it's funny watching you attempt to be smart only to degrade into frivolous drivel to try and discredit someone that's proven not to be bothered by your own posts and you never seem to counter or even address the subject. Fear the goons? I pity them if what represents them can't even defend themselves.

I hope this thread can get back to the serious discussion on how to make House Davion a stronger, community-based organization.

Because this recent derailment is painful to read.

Im not even sure what to say about this...coming from a WOL member.......but I agree with you. I hope that the greater Davion community can come together....by the sounds of meneipetus, they may have done just that, without all the I command your unit to do X, Y, Z because I am the general of the CoC!

Backhack...your response to ak coupled with your location points to a level of deadpan that, frankly, terrifies me.

Why? Don't you like Cheetos and soap operas?

Yo man it's sorta gross that you respond to my honest melancholy about the plight of the modern veteran with an attack like that. This is serious real world stuff that transcends internet robots or whatever.

Let's please stay on topic now.

why do you always begin your posts with "yo man".....?

just curious......

I also think he was referring to the other 90% of the posts you have made here. Forgive him if he cant turn a 180 like you can....very few individuals can go from insulting comments to trying to have a serious conversation with someone....I think it has to do with having a conscious and/or having morals....but I could be wrong.....I dont know.

This is possibly the most blatant attempt I've ever seen to leverage taking the high road in order to appear more mature than your opponent. Congratulations...I gawked.

Because I greet a lot of people with 'Yo man', it's not really that odd of a saying.

I wasn't even trying to take the high road? I was just talking about something that is real and is happening now, and it's very sad if you are too blind to see it. Wasn't even speaking in reference to Azantia, dang.

Stay on topic.... stay on topic........

I think "Yo" had its hayday from the 90's to the early 2000's like 2005 or something. based on my experience most people just say "Dude" . Yo man is six characters long if you count the space while "Dude" can mean the same thing with two less characters. People have decided to cut back on wasted characters due to todays "Green" enviroment.

I think a good way to utilize a more decentralized command structure while still reaping the benefits of a centralized one is at least having a centralized knowledge database for new players of the Federated Suns, a website you can point them too and say 'HEY! Go there for some sick Variable Fighter Online builds, and maybe some easy to pick up tipps and trikks too!'.

It wasn't an attack at all. I'm just kind of amazed and absolutely bewildered that you seem to change your tone, the subject, and your focal point like someone with a multiple personality disorder in a costume store going to a costume party. Seriously, what's up with that? At every turn when you get into a corner you shift into a different subject like a goose that's been sucked into a jet engine on the run-way.

As far as CoC goes I don't stand behind anything that has anyone at the "top" of any form of command that has any true form of power or control. If they did have someone in control at the top they'd have to be able to be kicked and removed from command. I don't care if it's not lore-friendly it's more about balance and actually keeping things in line. I highly doubt the devs would allow a one-man-show to ever happen at all.

Back on Topic.

Nobody in the Capellan Confederation belongs to Liao anymore, we're all members of the House Of Lowtax.
