Off-Topic Thread vol. 2

I have a problem of trying to be hard to read at all times and it’s just really something.

So there I was, when I received a notification that someone replied to my post where I accused that guy Julian Flavours of being guilty of the crime of nocturnal pornolalia, and I thought that someone was going to ask what that even was, because it’s a term that I just made up for the purposes of that post. It means “saying rude things in the night”. Or something like that.

Anyway, it turns out that despite the IGS thingamydoodad saying that my post was replied to, the alleged reply contained absolutely zero reference to my humorous wordage.

I was thus mildly disappointed for the rest of the day.

I am terribly sorry for my apparent rude non-reply. I did click the reply to respond but it got lost in my frantic typing.

To your word - Nocturnal pornolalia I giggled for sure and I thought it some play on being a workaholic going through the night to produce some high quality work than wouldn’t be safe before the watershed.

Oh, pardon me.

I know how fragile you Imperials can be. I am ever so sorry to have engaged with you on a topic completely unrelated to any of the reasons why you dislike me.

I’ll try not to make that mistake again.
I’ll allow you to feel any way that you wish about this post.

sighs don’t do a search about our recent dinner at the Gobi for the writing contest Organizer’s Award… I apologize in advance if you just did.

She’s pretty definitely not, pilot, and she’s an egger anyway. As far as the law’s concerned we’re basically tiny sovereign nations.

Anyway, Electus Matari’s politics is more or less what you’d guess from their name.

I mean, as far as I’ve ever heard, the Amarr god’s supposed to be pretty cosmically beyond any human conception. So while ‘herself’ is necessarily incorrect, ‘himself’, ‘itself’, or literally any pronoun that the human mind can understand is equally incorrect and inadequate.

While where the borders of that are is a disputed matter, the Amarr Empire has failed to take care of Sundsele Renouncers for 143 years and counting. I am not particularly worried because I posted a SoE influenced heresy to the capsuleer IGS.

According to the rules, if your heresy goes longer than 5 emperor’s reigns without action against it, it changes to an unapproved heterodoxy, and then you enter extra time, where the Empire has 100 years to denounce it as an official heresy, otherwise it goes to a penalty shoot out between representatives of the Theology Council and the heterodoxy to decide if it is heresy or accepted heterodoxy.

I admit–I laughed way, way harder at this than I should have.

I’m sure Commodore Vektor could do so in a reasonable diplomatic venue and that both PIE and LUMEN would take them far more seriously than they would unsubstantiated public insinuations.

You, on the other hand, have demonstrated a remarkable ability to first take a statement out of context and then become implacably outraged by the new meaning you impose onto those decontextualised words. So in no context can I see myself trusting your account of anything at all.

In this case, what you call insinuation is fact; fact I shared with you privately several months ago, I understand why skepticism serves your image at this point, by all means busy yourself fabricating justifications or mitigations.

I was just as skeptical then as I am now.

When I tried to verify your “facts”, they proved quite empty of substance and your interpretation was clearly driven by your irrational hatred of LUMEN.

I would still read actual logs if they were provided by an involved party in a diplomatic context designed to resolve a dispute between Amarr loyalists.

But I can see no scenario where I will trust your account of anything at all ever again.

The only involved party who gives a damn about your trust, or even position is LUMEN; you have overseen Lord Lok’ri, from a position of relative respect, the overplaying of every hand you have ever been dealt, and the consequent marginalization of your order to the point of utter insignificance, even if as I suspect, rather than malevolence it is incompetence born of your dotage, for that outcome alone the question ought to be raised whether your actions are those of an enemy of the inside.

Before you froth about proper venues for such accusations, that too was your choice.

Indeed. I ceased being willing to talk privately with you when you decided that public forums were the proper place to slander a Paladin Ordinary of the Sacred Throne Order.

But do go on about how I am an enemy within overplaying my hand. I’m sure it will be quite enlightening.

You have one Paladin left worthy of the title, and he cannot carry the dead weight forever; the last gasp of your order will prove me right, or you will realize your time has passed and your successor will prove me wrong.

Either way, I have no more words for you.

I think the first time I heard a line like that on this forum was YC106.

We’ll just put a pin in this as yet another lie from you.

Oh, swing and miss third time in a row. Better quit while you are ahead- or, well, not that far behind.

May I recommend you indefinitely postpone this as well? I am sure you have more important things to focus on, such as defending Delve. (lol)

We haven’t had capsuleers for 2 millennia. They’re a pretty new thing.
