Pie is the ultimate of ultimates. The being of all beings. The...nevermind.

Pie is whatever your favorite thing in the world is, unless your favorite thing in the world is stupid. Then Pie, is not stupid. It's the opposite of your favorite WORST thing!

I wonder if "hijacking threads" is on the list of tips the OP posted...lets check...

I see nothing about hijacking threads being a...VERY bad thing. I guess this example might get added to his list next time he updates it 'eh?

Dame&Beast · Sep 14, 2005, 02:18 AM // 02:18

Not technically hijacking unless of course we continue to discuss what being Pie means...then maybe that could be considered stealing ones limelight....and then there really isn't anything wrong with hijacking as long as you give it back nicely.....

EchoSex · Sep 14, 2005, 02:39 AM // 02:39

These rules just don't apply to me.. Why?

Well... I'm just an average Joe, with an average job. I'm your average white, suburbanite slob. I like football and porno and books about war. I got average house, with a nice hard wood floor. My wife and my job my kids and my car, my feet on my table, and a Cuban cigar. But sometimes that ain't enough to keep a man like me interested. No I gotta go out and have fun at someone else's expensice.

I drive really slow, in the ultra fast lane, while people behind me are going insane. I'm an asshole! (He's an asshole what an asshole.)

Yes, it's true.

Im sorry, but due to my agrument with Cole in another thread the OP said that we "inspired" him to write this.

Mayby you should have included not telling someone they sound like a "butt-wipe" in your long list of complaints. I cant belive that you made a anti-trolling thread, and yet you start it off better that most trolls ever could have. Good job

Dax · Sep 14, 2005, 03:00 AM // 03:00

Unfortunatly you'll need a full bore FAQ on the subject not just tips. Luckily people who act like 'butt wipes' are the bread and butter of forums and it's thier mistakes that makes it so easy to win an argument over them.

Haveing an argument on the internet is like winning the special olympics. Even IF you win, you're still a retard.

- yes, I like to self censor.

1. Trolling is a fact of e-life - get used to it. I hope your ego is not so fragile as to throw you into an e-flame war when it is bruised.

2. In the likely event that you are unable to control your ego, remember that your sense of righteous indignation is probably far from righteous. More than likely, you deserved whatever flame you received.

3. Think you hold the moral high ground? Think again. Think - really, really hard. Hopefully you’ll think so much that you forget what you wanted to say. It will save us all from having to read your arrogant spew. It’s just for the good of everyone else, really. You’ll save us all some valuable time.

4. If you are unable to stop yourself from retaliating with a high minded post that really just shows off how small your e-penis is, you’ll want to read on. The next couple of tips can be helpful in making you sound less retarded. Slightly less – your words bear some weight, but it’s really the person behind the words that define its value.

a. Emotes make you sound like a petulant little child. For example - *sigh*; *taps foot impatiently*; *sigh*. Far from making you sound like the witty, intelligent e-personality you want to be, it makes you this: *look an me I’m an ass!1!1!!!111”

b. Don’t try to correct grammar and spelling. More than likely, you will incorrectly spell one to several words. It gives people like me a good laugh at your own expense. Vocabulary, grammar, spelling – you can do it? Great, it makes your words hurt our eyes a little less. (Sorry, but what you type is still bad enough to burn my mind.) But when you try to use those three as yardsticks for definitively measuring intelligence and credibility (especially credibility), you’ve already screwed yourself over. You sure as hell better use a spellchecker and proof-read what you write.

c. Becoming a Nazi about semantics is a bad idea. Look up those words before you flame me, by the way. Update? Patch? Which is it? Update? Patch? Care to name someone who find your discussion useful? (read: http://www.guildwarsguru.com/forum/s...6&page=2&pp=25 ) The particular definition of a word is rarely important to a discussion. You waste time discussing that in a thread purposed for something other than the discussion of words. You come over as an arrogant twat - though by all means, continue. You’re just flashing your small e-penis to everyone who wants a good laugh.

5. Go jump into a glass door. Feel stupid? Good. Just remember that feeling every time you want to make a scathing reply, or troll. Maybe it’ll actually stop you from posting. Just remember, every time you type something stupid, there will be hundreds of people laughing in front of hundreds of monitors. Good luck being taken seriously.

I will patch in as ideas come to mind. (Edit: What I really meant was - as I continue to browse the forums. ) Sorry, I meant update. Or – wait, who really cares?

1) I hate the word trolling.. back in my day they lived under bridges and ate billy goats gruff...

2) the word "righteous" looks weird on the internet.. enough said

3) Im a little confused... is arrogance and egos all you ever talk about?.. what else is on?

4) a) *has no clue what your talking about*

b) Internet = not a spelling test... i have not done a spelling test in many years and i do not plan to start doing so now

c) heh.. e-penis

5) The words "internet" and "serious" do not belong in the same line or sentence.. unless its something like " im serious, i know how to use the internet".. or something like that

Im not to sure what to make from this post.. but it seems to be a serious post about not being serious on the forums.. brb, i forgot to take my irony out of the oven

I fined it hard to belive that you, being a member of these forums, have never participated in the arguments that are always going on.

If I belive strongly about something I will fight for it IRL or on here.

(And the joke gos)

Whats better than winning the special olimpics?

Not being F****en retarded.

Id agree with the first two, but the 3rd can hurt. You could hit yourself on the thumb, like that time that I wasnt paying attiontion.

You know that it is common courtesy to correct people?

Also, pie IS good.

Well that is true winning an argument is a exercise in futility, perhaps the wrong choice of words. Besides we aren't arguing we're discussing right?

Here are a few more of tips:

-Never claim you're an expert. Just because you're the manager at EB doesn't mean you're an expert on games. And if you take a class on economics in college it doesn't make you the Alan Greenspan of ingame economy. Always be wary that there may be someone smarter than you. Even if you are a expert never fess up to it....if you can get the point across you will and if you don't it's a lost cause.

- Try to never say an absolute, it's always your opinion.

- If someone calls you a name, compliment them on it. Drives them crazy....trust me.

- Be willing to say you're wrong if it helps make your broader point.

pie squared times the coefficient of cherry. add the cherry towards a lesser blueberry, meaning that the cherry will have to result in the oven formula. simply put,the oven formula is composed of grease and heat: heat being the factor that determines whether all numbers are negative or not. once you get that number, you can then add that to the ppm of sugar inside your blood. upon completion, u can finally eat the pie and determine what time u will poo.

Exellent point! Thus, I believe that internet trolls should be catagorized by the area that they live in much like those of GW.

You keep your irony in the OVEN?

Boy...I put mine in the laundry room with the wrinkled clothes until I have to get the irony board out and get my work clothes ready.

Hint of the day: Always unplug your irony to keep from becoming a household injury statistic.
