BoloReich User Guide

SJ: Yes-huh!

I was wondering why I loved the boards so much. Then an epiphany struck me... message threads can go any damn way they want to!!! You'll never cease to be amazed at the variety of shit you'll see on one thread. A thread that starts off "Hey, do you like NickelBack?" could end up with a flamewar between an extreme American nationalist and another extreme Canadian nationalist, each explaining how their country is better than the others and yet getting no farther in convincing one another on their view than a dog trying to catch its tail.

Of course, this is all obvious shit but I felt like ranting a little bit. Since I don't feel quite fulfilled yet... here we go again.

It is SJ's right to distribute/withold his program to whomever he wishes. I kinda thought it was a tad childish to say, "Well, you think you've hurt me with that, but hah! I'm not! I don't need your stupid program!" If that's the truth, why bother posting that at all?

As for all the .com/.us bullshit... we don't know the inner workings of everyone else's mind, so who's to say what's bullshit and what's not? Min's claim that .com is NOT a shitty dictatorship could be just as right as "The .us side" on LRL's site. But as long as you guys are having fun, who am I to stop you?

well, since your the one being so insightful ...... tell me ...... how can you have a dictatorship without a dictator? ... I left for 10 months. also ... don't you have to have some sort of power to get in the first place to be a dictator? .... I'm just here to play bolo, just like everyone else. I have no desire for "power", or to be the leader .... as long as I can play bolo. Isn't that what its all about anyways?

I wasn't here when all the .com/.us stuff happened, so for all I know your excellent point has been taken way out of context.

I would personally like to Thank Nova for starting this Flamewar. oh ya and
Nuh-uh!

I started the thread... you instigated the flamewar. Thank yourself. I just jumped into this for the fuck of it.

the point I was trying to get across was ..... I wasn't here either .....

Min

ps ... rant rant rant rant (this ones for sj)

Well, that was actually only part of your point. Your whole point was that you weren't there, so .com couldn't possibly have been a dictatorship.

damn you Nova and all your lieing. I read your boloreich user guide I will quote it "OMG i fucking own all of you, I fucking rock your socks" (Note quote may not be exactly like original) this then insituted a flamewar started by you and maddmaxx!
p.s. Min your rant's suck monkey nuts

very good nova ... you get a cookie!

p.s. As far as I understand what happened with .com/.us .... was lrl banned maddmaxx for something trivial, darkomen told him not to do that, lrl flipped saying something similiar to "min's not here, don't tell me what to do" ....... then recuited people to spam everyone who joined .com to join .us instead ..... pretty simple really

sheeps wrote:

Spoken from someone who does not visit .us, gotta love that propaganda.

You want to talk about the division and propaganda? You suddenly quit irc.winbolo.com out of the blue without any explanation. I finally get a hold of you on .us to just ask you why you left and you say it is because I deopped LRL out of some personal issue or something like that. I inform you that I deopped LRL because he was abusing his privileges and WOULD BE COMPLETELY AGAINST HIS CURRENT IRC POLICY (can you say ironic?). Now, who was sucking up LRL's propaganda like a baby and candy? Funny thing when I told you this, you took it all in stride, agreed to rethink your decision about leaving .com. You never joined .com once, and I even emailed you from some free email you provided me with to ask you what happened and never got a response. I come to find later that you gave your log of our conversation to LRL (either that, or LRL logged it with his nifty ircd privmsg sniffing tool). As for a policy, I find them completely useless because ops are going to do whatever they want anyway. Do you honestly think that LRL wouldn't ban me if I came into .us and called him a bunch of names? In any case, Killjoy is writing a policy to keep people happy and will hopefully have time to finish it when he finds some time.

sheeps wrote:

But seriously SJ, the main reason for most of this division was a push for change in the community.

Do you honestly feel in your heart of hearts that irc.winbolo.com was so mismanaged and unfair after learning of all of LRL's bullshit to recruit people to his server (maybe you still are in denial?) that splitting our little community in two really helped it? I don't think I could more strongly disagree with what you helped do.

Nova wrote:

You are right, you weren't there, so why is it that you left .com? Remember, you most likely would not even be here right now if it wasn't for me recruiting you to IRC from some game a long time ago.

I left .com because fi invited me over to .us one day after I came back. SJ was fucking around with my modem (usual SJ mischief---although he was nice enough to send me a link to a fix for the glitch he was taking advantage of) and fi said, "Hey, come over to .us. SJ isn't in there." I didn't feel like joining two servers, so I've stuck with .us.

Well, there's no point in hiding the truth. I finally felt the need to tell the world how awesome I am and decided to release it disguised as a "BoloReich User Guide" when in fact it is merely a Novan version of Hitler's Mein Kampf.

i believe i am the coolest guy here, like who can disagree? not even you "nova". it has takin me this long to figure out who u r, and i am onto your game, so watch yourself.

Well, I'm about to prove you wrong. Here I am, disagreeing. "Flad is not the coolest guy here. At best, he is second coolest due to my presence."

Well, you could have always asked me who I am and what my game was. I'll be sure to watch myself, though. Wouldn't want to piss on the toilet seat.

ha sure fucked you over i am on .us, i personally like it better then .com, cuz i am free to act like even more of an asshole and not be punished for it. and if you weren't so annoying i wouldn't have been forced to kick you from .com using alternate methods, because my op's got lost in some webpage incident.

I'd write a scathing reply to this, but I'm too busy crying.

I still love you...

I finally got tired of all the "games" (no tank involved) and the 'personal whim" politics. I had no desire to join the flaming and hoped instead that 'quiet resistence' would have some impact.

Which is the whole point, make it so it doesn't happen, don't just selective punish whoever you don't like. I just want it to be CLEAR what some of the rules are.

I said I would rejoin once there were policies, which there is still not. Never got the email so I guess you were seen as spam.

He didn't get a log from me, but if someone asks I tell them. Was it a top secret converstaion? I didn't see anything personal that I wouldn't share.

No I don't think LRL would. I look forward to the policies.

May I piss on your chest? perhaps shit? either way I am happy for another day.

Um... I think I'll pass on that one, flad. I think I'll write a book... "From User Guide to Pissing/Shitting on Someone's Chest" (A study of flamewars and the bizarre human pyche.)

lo-fucking-l!

Actually, when you picked a side, YOU JOINED THE GAME.

Digging up an old topic but is the user guide still available anywhere?
