Dies to Removal

You're intentionally annoying the shit out of everyone in every part of the site, if your idea of a good troll is to have the entire site hate you then keep it up

3 threads = the ENTIRE SITE

this is just like when places outside of philly began selling philly cheese-steaks and then everyone stopped buying cheese-steaks in philly

this is just like that time those black people were doing wacky black people things so we put on some kind of facial covering and did a more cartoonish version of their wacky inhuman antics.

second comedy option:
this is just like when people went to harlem.

Nobody making these videos is trying to be racist, or giving a fuck about anything other than having fun or having their video seen. The origin is meaningless. The dad and his two year old son dancing on webcam have no obligation to give a shit about Harlem. You're not new to the Internet.

a bunch of people shaking around like they're having a seizure isn't the harlem shake.
they're taking something that is shaking around like a seizure victim and rebranding it as the harlem shake.
they get hits and LOL reblogs, which turn into money, because i am not new to the internet and
know how that works.
harlem doesn't get the money for the thing they invented.

like when i saw my first harlem shake video, the first thought i had was "that's mad racist" followed immediately by "i wonder if the people in harlem realize that white people have made a minstrel show of yet another thing they do"

the harlem shake is a real thing.
a bunch of (99.9% white) people are bastardizing it on the internet via meme.
many of these people will go on to profit off of bastardizing something that is a real cultural thing for people in harlem.
people in harlem, almost inarguably in a worse place fiscally than white vloggers with a youtube following, will not see a cent of the money earned on a "craze" they had no idea they were starting.

white people with money -- infinity +1; poor black and minority people -- 0

there is a video that outlines the above in real testimonials from harlem natives young and old, but it's longer than 18 seconds so i assume you'd start drooling on yourself if i posted it instead of typing this out.

I meant MTG News members are family , just like you guys and Magecraft. We have our bad apples, but don't insult them.

That said you came here for exactly what I said, incitement against mtgs. I hope this wont cause us any more future rifts as you are so stunning with your chiseled jaw line.

I'll keep my chiseled jawline, thank you for noticing. But I think there'd be far fewer issues between you and I if you just smoke a little more of what's in your pic and relax.

Would you like to retract your short comments? I would respond in the positive if you did so

Well you've already been plenty mean so far, why stop now?

Sheesh Mogadishu, don't be mad bro.

So, I'm trying to gauge interest here. Is this a fight worth fighting, or are people just burned out and done? Cause I'm still relatively young where it concerns mtgs, and I'm righteously pissed at what could easily be considered peanuts to some of the more tenured individuals I see in here. But, I am the best there is at what I do, so all I really need is info and some names. But, I could be totally wrong and get my ass banned forever too, so....

Let me guess Harkius, we failed the test again no?

Nope. Not a test. If you look up in this thread, you'll see exactly what this was:

A PM to the site's administrator, asking him to get one of his pals to calm the fuck down. I point out here that you ARE an Admin here, because, racist connotations dropped out, you are theoretically at least, a person who has some influence on the site due to being an Admin.

As far as my unfortunate choice of the term "boy", that had nothing to do with race. Now that kpaca has helpfully reminded me of the text of the PM,
I used the words that I did because he was acting like a petulant child, editing my posts into vomiting smiley faces, etc.

So, epic fail on my part, and assholery on yours. Let's call it a draw, shall we?

What do you call a bunch of white people sitting on a bench?

The NBAUtah Jazz

No fucking shit. That's why the goddamn mafia game is falling apart is cuz you fuckers are "doing a lot of not-reading".

I've never eaten Spam. #thirdworldproblems

Not sure that qualifies as a "problem".

I mean, I think these dialogs have been productive, even if they took a long time to get going or accomplish anything, and even if that accomplishment looks pretty minor. I appreciate that staff from MTGS have taken the time to come over here when they never had to in the first place. You can't give everyone what they want every time they want it. I know there was a lot of "more of the same" from both sides in this discussion, but that it wasn't all more of the same is just another example of the baby steps of progress this exercise has been.

Shout outs
to Harku and TCM for dancing the line between progressive voice and stone troll to keep this thread interesting. Props to Onar for unsuccessfully appealing to make his site the source of our appeals. Props to Scumbag for roller coaster riding his rage train. Props to KCW for his use of the Super Soldier Serum and never changing in 7 years.

Thank you but I am still helping you guys by slowly changing MTGS mod mindset as many can confirm...

and before Harkius starts his skepticism, I would like tell him that no matter what he and his allies are attempting to do to derail this process of reconciliation, I will be there and counter them.

The gloves have come off Hark and the knives are out.

Take it as a threat or warning , but I will not allow your personal agenda of vengeance to iridium affect MTGS members and MTC members.

With total resolve, Onar.
