Lockposts are great... people should also LEARN from them so they don't keep posting SPAM and get all their threads locked. 99.9% of the lockposts contain a reason why the thread was locked, yet people find ignoring them all too easy it seems. As for scooter... that HAS to be the worst imitation of the NS boards ever (visually). Oh, and he seems like a moron.

Individuals "uncorrupted by capitalism"? Wouldn't those be communists?
Chances are you were joking, but I can't resist an opportunity to make corrections.
In short, scooter_blue = Stalin?!
Edit: Looking at the other forums, this is quite possibly the funniest thing I have ever seen.
It seems that <i>someone</i> has been watching too many revolutionary films. Looking at his chat log with Nem0, he bears a striking resemblence to many arrogant talk-show hosts who twist the words of others. I expect to see an influx of propaganda from scooter_blue soon.
Anyone want to start a counter-revolutionary force to shut down this guy? <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif' /><!--endemo-->

Mantrid, I think it's safe to assume that anyone speaking in favour of scooter_blue that is as well spoken in his or her statement(s) as Confuzor is doing so out of sarcasm.

Well, Elven never once said anything. Frankly, he kept telling me "If you get that guy's address, I'll buy you a new baseball bat and ride by in my truck on the way."
