Reading biographies means nothing in the field kid.

(the "kid" in there isn't really meant to sound condescending, it just makes the sentence sound cooler I think)

And yet you continue to fail to demonstrate those skills here. Your one line quips that seem to roll out of your fingers faster than your brain can process only serve to deeply polarize others against your ideas, not unite them in a common cause.

Kyrin, it's very hard to convey emotion and fiery rhetoric whislt typing. I'll come visit you one day, and give you a speech you won't forget

LOL oh really?
Wow I wonder if the readers of such authors as Harriet Beecher Stowe or Erich Maria Remarque or John Steinbeck or George Orwell or Harper Lee or.. well I could go on for a while... would agree with you? You typically don't bother to string more than two sentences together in your posts and yet you put yourself in a league with these authors as an orator? Whats really the difference between the written and the spoken word? Why do you claim lofty stature in one medium but not the other?

Because, Drama.

Hey guys, be respectful.

Silas has more support than you warrant.

You [TOTJO] may be running out of time, you know...

:blink: I certainly hope not!

The 'TotJO may be running out of time' bit that is, :dry:

People are welcome to support Silas if they want

Respect for another is not something that should be dependent upon how much a following one has...

Respect is given when it is earned.
I assume you are a supporter?
What part of the new world order do you represent? Time Police? What exactly does that mean? Running out of time to what?

Woah woah woah Kyrin. I believe that I called dibs on the title of Time Cop. :laugh:

I'm sorry sNe1a, but so far you are his lone vocal supporter in more than a "be nice to the guy" kind of way. I would add that at least I am not trying to be intentionally mean to him, I am merely trying to make him think long and hard about what he's saying.

As for us running out of time, Silas isn't the first to come here proposing a Jedi run world and I doubt he'll be the last. We survived then and I believe that we'll survive again.
