That guy is not a Dental, he is obviously in another fleet which I cannot name, but has the initials FC....Try again.
Hah owned. I have a question great and powerful Nabreeki if I may? If someone is not in Dental and already was in a fleet, is it possible for them to attain great and eternal Juche or are we just screwed for all eternity?
Anyway, like I was sayin', shrimp is the fruit of the sea. You can barbecue it, boil it, broil it, bake it, saute it. Dey's uh, shrimp-kabobs, shrimp creole, shrimp gumbo. Pan fried, deep fried, stir-fried. There's pineapple shrimp, lemon shrimp, coconut shrimp, pepper shrimp, shrimp soup, shrimp stew, shrimp salad, shrimp and potatoes, shrimp burger, shrimp sandwich. That- that's about it. - Bubba

You may not know Dear Leader, but Dear Leader knows you. Walk always in the light of Butts.
Finally, this thread is approaching REAL substance. Eternal juche is attainable by all. Juche is constant, continuous, never-ceasing revolution. The Dear Leader created Dental to bring juche to Drozana, and then to the wider STO world. Though Dentals have accepted, internalized, and espoused the teachings of the Dear Leader, it is possible for anyone to accept the Juche and the Dear leader as long as they keep an open mind, an open heart, and a pure spirit.
All is not lost, my child.
Praise be! For the Juche and for the Dear Leader!

This thread is a great use of everyone's time and effort.
I wonder what is crazier, being so nuts about RP that you spend your free time throwing pretend dance beach parties and arguing with npc's OR getting so worked up over your pretend beach parties and arguments with imaginary friends you feel a need to post about.
It's a trick question because anyone that would share with the public that these are the ways they spend their free time is damn lucky Reagan shut down all the state run institutions.

Yeah dude, it makes a whole lot less sense than going out and blowing 30 bucks at a theater, 50 bucks at a restaurant, and then 20 bucks on gas! Makes a WHOLE LOT LESS SENSE! Everyone is a bunch of crazies for enjoying gaming, general nerdery, and all things internet. Sorry I don't go out and pay O'Charleys fifty bucks for what I can do from Aldi for eight! Sorry I enjoy an interactive experience with other like minded and HILARIOUS individuals instead of paying money to see the latest Hollywood TRIBBLE! Oh and let me apologize for the disabled individuals and discriminated individuals who this game could be their only outlet to their world due to their disability or phobias. Apologies all around for those of us that have offended thee great sir! We prostrate ourselves before your infinite mercy. :cool:
Also, on occasion, people laugh and enjoy a good bit of theater. A well constructed diatribe againt NPC gibberish can be solid GOLD. Now I understand you might think street performers lower the tone and you wish us banished to the bottom of the town for THE GREATER GOOD, but this isn't Sanford, you're not the town elders, and I'm not a man painted in a gold suit. So how does that twist your giblets Ralph?

Look at this straw man argument. Are you actually unable to stay on topic or do you always feel compelled to try to derail threads?

I ALWAYS feel compelled to derail threads dude that is my MO can't you see. Besides, I am pro-Dental, I have no beef with you, so I don't know why you feel I tried to pull a Straw-man on you. The show you guys put on I classified under all things internet. I have nothing but respect for the excellence you guys display, adherence to Trek knowledge, and just skillful methods of playing the game. I wish I could be so competent to be honest.

But those present were in on the joke.. and GM reports were filed.
You are wasting GM time filing false reports? Wasting GM time isn't joke as you have stated.
You have a completely insane agenda to harass Starfleet Dental. Your repeated harassment in conjunction with trolling our recruitment thread is highly inappropriate behaviour.

I don't take sides I look at a more even-handed approach. If you were posting ironically then so be it. The post appears to be non sequitur in relation to the discussion. It is quite literally difficult to make any rational sense of this thread.

Sweet effortpost bro, your dental invite is on it's way.

My satire and trolling takes many forms so I apologize for confusing you, but it is all done in the spirit of how off the wall this all is. In all truth and seriousness I am very pro-Dental, and also pro-RP, I am very against public ERP for sure as your fleet helpfully points out, go to yuor private bridges FFS! My wife and little sister play MMOs like WoW and are always having awful things said to them at Goldshire and elsewhere so I appreciate you guys keeping this game acceptable for all ages.

Now I don't RP or anything. I just go about my business as normal in the game. I am not going to argue whether this behavior is going on in game or not. If there is a chance it is, it should be looked into by the game team.
However, I find that ignoring works. If you can't ignore them...than do something like this! AKA> Yell something nonsense right at them and than go back to your roleplay. It is possible to make them play their game by your rules and people like this HATE that.
Sweet effortpost bro, your dental invite is on it's way.
*chortle*
Oh, and Dr. Lariat, CitrusFrog, you guys got no CLUE what is going on. Great success. xD That is the mark of DAMN good satire.

PWE Terms of Service Section 10, Sub-sections F , H, and N are the ones in question.

(h) Impede or disrupt the Service or the normal flow of game play or dialogue in the game or in Interactive Areas on the Site or use vulgar language, abusiveness, use of excessive shouting (ALL CAPS) "spamming" or any other disruptive or detrimental methods in an attempt to disturb other users or PWE employees;
(n) Take any action that disrupts the Service or that negatively affects or may prohibit other users from enjoying the Website, the Games or any other aspect of the Service.
This directly relates to, but is not limited to the useage of Party Amplifiers in STFs and other "General population" gameplay. The continual usage by one or more players of devices such as Fire Extinguishers, Party poppers, and other like devices directly towards another player or players for an extended amount of time with the sole purpose of "griefing" or negatively affecting other players from enjoying the game. The practice of escalating such behavior and/or following another player or players to different locations or instances when asked to desist in such behavior that is rightfully regarded as being against the TOS, but negatively affecting another player or players experience in the game.
I posted the appropriate sections of the Terms of Service both for PWE/Cryptic games/services and also the section for the forums, nit because I intended to nit-pick the entire thing, or point out abuses on both sides of the coin as it where, but because I think we all need a reminder of exactly what is what.
To be perfectly upfront and honest we all know the organization (I say organization because it comprises of 2-3 in-game fleets, but is the same group) that's being referred to in this thread. There's no logical reason to dance around the facts here.
To make a point I'm going to mention a specific user, and if he so asks I'll remove this section of the post, but I think it's important to the overall purpose of my post. Nabreeki and I have definitely not seen eye to eye on certain things, and as I'm sure some of you know we've have some mud flinging back and fore a few times. We've also had times where we've really communicated well together in trying to devise different ways the game could be made better, and he's really provided some very useful and constructive feedback on some of my ideas.
I do agree that some of the activities of this specific organization and others needs to be toned down and completely stopped when asked by the effected players. I also agree that in some instances the reaction to some activities has been overwhelmingly excessive as well.
One of the most fundamental aspects of the very core of Star Trek is mutual cooperation for the betterment of all. While we have Terms of Service as an outline for acceptable behavior, we shouldn't be running to it every time some does something we don't like. Instead we should be talking a page from Star Trek's philosophy and diplomatically defusing situations in a civilized manner, and then and only then if that's not possible then invoke some 3rd party help from a GM.
One thing I don't remember seeing in all of the posts throughout the forums has been what polite attempts have people made in asking these individuals to cease their actions and their response. Maybe it's because I'm 32 and grew up in a time when if you had a problem with someone it was handled one on one, no BS, no weapons, no gang-ups, just two people settling up in whatever manner, and then it was done, forgotten, moved on from, and fixed.
Just came back from a real summer event, and a real theme park...and I got to say...some of you guys need to go out more.
I got to say, Samuel L. Jackson shoulda read the gorram Navy Seal copypasta. This thread needs him reading it in an authoritative voice for the OP. It would solve all problems.
Anyway, like I was sayin', shrimp is the fruit of the sea. You can barbecue it, boil it, broil it, bake it, saute it. Dey's uh, shrimp-kabobs, shrimp creole, shrimp gumbo. Pan fried, deep fried, stir-fried. There's pineapple shrimp, lemon shrimp, coconut shrimp, pepper shrimp, shrimp soup, shrimp stew, shrimp salad, shrimp and potatoes, shrimp burger, shrimp sandwich. That- that's about it. - Bubba
I agree. All I can gather from that wall of gibberish is that he is requesting that people file false GM tickets for the purpose of harassing my fleet.

Hate Speech

PWE Terms of Service Section 10, Sub-sections F , H, and N are the ones in question.
(f) "Stalk," threaten or otherwise harass or cause discomfort to another;
(h) Impede or disrupt the Service or the normal flow of game play or dialogue in the game or in Interactive Areas on the Site or use vulgar language, abusiveness, use of excessive shouting (ALL CAPS) "spamming" or any other disruptive or detrimental methods in an attempt to disturb other users or PWE employees;
(n) Take any action that disrupts the Service or that negatively affects or may prohibit other users from enjoying the Website, the Games or any other aspect of the Service.
This directly relates to, but is not limited to the useage of Party Amplifiers in STFs and other "General population" gameplay. The continual usage by one or more players of devices such as Fire Extinguishers, Party poppers, and other like devices directly towards another player or players for an extended amount of time with the sole purpose of "griefing" or negatively affecting other players from enjoying the game. The practice of escalating such behavior and/or following another player or players to different locations or instances when asked to desist in such behavior that is rightfully regarded as being against the TOS, but negatively affecting another player or players experience in the game.
I posted the appropriate sections of the Terms of Service both for PWE/Cryptic games/services and also the section for the forums, nit because I intended to nit-pick the entire thing, or point out abuses on both sides of the coin as it where, but because I think we all need a reminder of exactly what is what.
To be perfectly upfront and honest we all know the organization (I say organization because it comprises of 2-3 in-game fleets, but is the same group) that's being referred to in this thread. There's no logical reason to dance around the facts here.
To make a point I'm going to mention a specific user, and if he so asks I'll remove this section of the post, but I think it's important to the overall purpose of my post. Nabreeki and I have definitely not seen eye to eye on certain things, and as I'm sure some of you know we've have some mud flinging back and fore a few times. We've also had times where we've really communicated well together in trying to devise different ways the game could be made better, and he's really provided some very useful and constructive feedback on some of my ideas.
I do agree that some of the activities of this specific organization and others needs to be toned down and completely stopped when asked by the effected players. I also agree that in some instances the reaction to some activities has been overwhelmingly excessive as well.
One of the most fundamental aspects of the very core of Star Trek is mutual cooperation for the betterment of all. While we have Terms of Service as an outline for acceptable behavior, we shouldn't be running to it every time some does something we don't like. Instead we should be talking a page from Star Trek's philosophy and diplomatically defusing situations in a civilized manner, and then and only then if that's not possible then invoke some 3rd party help from a GM.
One thing I don't remember seeing in all of the posts throughout the forums has been what polite attempts have people made in asking these individuals to cease their actions and their response. Maybe it's because I'm 32 and grew up in a time when if you had a problem with someone it was handled one on one, no BS, no weapons, no gang-ups, just two people settling up in whatever manner, and then it was done, forgotten, moved on from, and fixed.
Look at that wall of text. Are you tired of trolling the Starfleet Dental recruitment thread?
I agree. All I can gather from that wall of gibberish is that he is requesting that people file false GM tickets for the purpose of harassing my fleet.
I'll have you know he graduated top of his class in the Navy Seals, and he has been involved in numerous secret raids on Al-Quaeda, and he has over 300 confirmed kills. He is trained in gorilla warfare and he is the top sniper in the entire US armed forces...
Sorry, couldn't resist. His threats have just amused me endlessly sir. TRIBBLE and vinegar.
The only thing that I think would make this funnier, would be hearing that you guys done goofed and the consequences will NEVER be the same!
Anyway, like I was sayin', shrimp is the fruit of the sea. You can barbecue it, boil it, broil it, bake it, saute it. Dey's uh, shrimp-kabobs, shrimp creole, shrimp gumbo. Pan fried, deep fried, stir-fried. There's pineapple shrimp, lemon shrimp, coconut shrimp, pepper shrimp, shrimp soup, shrimp stew, shrimp salad, shrimp and potatoes, shrimp burger, shrimp sandwich. That- that's about it. - Bubba
Pretty classy how you all are throwing around Rosa Park's name on your page in a mocking, derogatory fashion. Does that help your recruiting also?
I think you might have that backwards, I know sometimes words are hard. But as you can see if you actually read it, we are mocking someone else for thinking the issues they have are on the same level as the issues Rosa Parks had with segregation.

Pretty classy how you all are throwing around Rosa Park's name on your page in a mocking, derogatory fashion. Does that help your recruiting also?
Reading comprehension escapes you.
No actually you're just trying to defame us by trying to get an emotive response from readers by making out of context statements that are simply lies. Your coordinated attack on Dental is bizarre and ineffective. All you have done is undermine your public support by revealing your behaviour publicly. All by going crazy about discoballs.
When I say we attract crackpots this thread is a prime example.
Pretty classy how you all are throwing around Rosa Park's name on your page in a mocking, derogatory fashion. Does that help your recruiting also?
Well Mr. gamer, had you even the most basic reading comprehensions skills, you would have been able to parse the fact that 1) Ms. Park's name was dropped once, and used in a wholly descriptive fashion, and 2) Said descriptive usage was a direct reference to a member of these forums equating private role-playing to segregation of race. Of course, instead of reading those and understanding the usage of the words, you simply latched onto it as an avenue of attack in aid of your agenda. It is, in fact, you, sir, that does a disservice to the individual in question by attempting to use mention of her name as ammunition for your hatred and defamation.
And for the record, the answer to your question is yes - being healthy, sane individuals with a sense of perspective and basic comprehension skills does wonders for our recruitment.
Comments
Hah owned. I have a question great and powerful Nabreeki if I may? If someone is not in Dental and already was in a fleet, is it possible for them to attain great and eternal Juche or are we just screwed for all eternity?
You may not know Dear Leader, but Dear Leader knows you. Walk always in the light of Butts.

Praise be!
I wonder what is crazier, being so nuts about RP that you spend your free time throwing pretend dance beach parties and arguing with npc's OR getting so worked up over your pretend beach parties and arguments with imaginary friends you feel a need to post about.
It's a trick question because anyone that would share with the public that these are the ways they spend their free time is damn lucky Reagan shut down all the state run institutions.
Yeah dude, it makes a whole lot less sense than going out and blowing 30 bucks at a theater, 50 bucks at a restaurant, and then 20 bucks on gas! Makes a WHOLE LOT LESS SENSE! Everyone is a bunch of crazies for enjoying gaming, general nerdery, and all things internet. Sorry I don't go out and pay O'Charleys fifty bucks for what I can do from Aldi for eight! Sorry I enjoy an interactive experience with other like minded and HILARIOUS individuals instead of paying money to see the latest Hollywood TRIBBLE! Oh and let me apologize for the disabled individuals and discriminated individuals who this game could be their only outlet to their world due to their disability or phobias. Apologies all around for those of us that have offended thee great sir! We prostrate ourselves before your infinite mercy. :cool:
Also, on occasion, people laugh and enjoy a good bit of theater. A well constructed diatribe againt NPC gibberish can be solid GOLD. Now I understand you might think street performers lower the tone and you wish us banished to the bottom of the town for THE GREATER GOOD, but this isn't Sanford, you're not the town elders, and I'm not a man painted in a gold suit. So how does that twist your giblets Ralph?
Look at this straw man argument. Are you actually unable to stay on topic or do you always feel compelled to try to derail threads?
I ALWAYS feel compelled to derail threads dude that is my MO can't you see. Besides, I am pro-Dental, I have no beef with you, so I don't know why you feel I tried to pull a Straw-man on you. The show you guys put on I classified under all things internet. I have nothing but respect for the excellence you guys display, adherence to Trek knowledge, and just skillful methods of playing the game. I wish I could be so competent to be honest.
You are wasting GM time filing false reports? Wasting GM time isn't joke as you have stated.
You have a completely insane agenda to harass Starfleet Dental. Your repeated harassment in conjunction with trolling our recruitment thread is highly inappropriate behaviour.
I don't take sides I look at a more even-handed approach. If you were posting ironically then so be it. The post appears to be non sequitur in relation to the discussion. It is quite literally difficult to make any rational sense of this thread.
Sweet effortpost bro, your dental invite is on it's way.
My satire and trolling takes many forms so I apologize for confusing you, but it is all done in the spirit of how off the wall this all is. In all truth and seriousness I am very pro-Dental, and also pro-RP, I am very against public ERP for sure as your fleet helpfully points out, go to yuor private bridges FFS! My wife and little sister play MMOs like WoW and are always having awful things said to them at Goldshire and elsewhere so I appreciate you guys keeping this game acceptable for all ages.
However, I find that ignoring works. If you can't ignore them...than do something like this! AKA> Yell something nonsense right at them and than go back to your roleplay. It is possible to make them play their game by your rules and people like this HATE that.
*chortle*
Oh, and Dr. Lariat, CitrusFrog, you guys got no CLUE what is going on. Great success. xD That is the mark of DAMN good satire.
Usually about as funny too.
