Maiddens a EWAR/EW pilot who specs with interdicters :-D Have a opening?
Heh, we have openings for anything that can PVP. Interceptors are always welcome in our fleets.
Unless you're a spai!

I'll take any recommendations for new forums. Coming here to lurk is pretty much all I did on this site. I may have run out of things to say about 3 years ago, and most of the users in R&P were dickweeds, doesn't mean I didn't enjoy it.
I've been on the Escapist for a year, but geeeez, their R&P is only good in doses. Whiny bunch of gun-phobics..
Considering most MMORPG's have been garbage for years now, and Emu's are non grata,there is not much of a reason to hang around, so i will bid all adieu....
Peace out....
well it has been fun it is a shame that i never got vato to tell me he was wrong.
anyway i think the winner was those of us on the right lol so peace out
I was active a few years ago on the R&P forums but gave up out of frustration and became are lurker. It was fun reading the (normally) diatribe posted on a daily basis. It was fun knowing all you guys (or just reading your posts), would take any recommendations for newer forums though this was unique. R&P had become somewhat of clique of posters attacking each other constantly but i guess that's what made it fun..

Good riddance to that cesspool. Lates!
So I started to walk into the water. I won't lie to you boys...I was terrified. But I pressed on, and as I made my way past the breakers, a strange calm came over me. I don't know if it was divine intervention or the kinship of all living things, but I tell you, Jerry, at that moment ... I was a marine biologist.
And nothing of value was lost.
Thanks MikeB!
Damn, now I only have msnbc and fox to get my blood pressure up...
I'm just bummed, as a long time member of the OT and then R&P forums, that I didn't really hang out there for it's last few days.
It will be nice to see some good discussions in the OT forum though. Back in the old days, that was a good place to hang out. Well, except for the conspiracy theories about 9/11 that popped up...
Ahh..nope,if you read Mike Bs announcement Religion and Politics are Forbidden so it won't be like it was before
I had fun, take care guys, I wish you all the best and remember to all ways read between the lines no matter what side you lean.
I will be mostly in the SW:TOR forums from now on.
P.S if any of you find a good R & P forum please let us know or if one of you are plaining on starting one.
The Escapist one is good, but very tightly moderated. You can't fart without getting a warning and/or suspension.

Hey guys, I changed my mind about leaving R&P! I am BAC...., wow, wait a minute...what the hell happened?!!!
Seriously guys, I leave you alone on R&P forums for less than a day and the whole system collapses.
R&P before it was shut down was all gentlemen and gentlewoman politely disccussing the concerns of the day that gentlefolk are wont to ruminate on before their daily constitutional:
Ok, that's not quite true lol. It was more often than not a quarantined zone for trolls, extremists, the criminally insane and lost souls who wandered in by mistake; a place whose inmates more often than not resembled the chaps below.
It was, as a result, a curious place and a curioser experiment in umoderation, interesting but depressing in equal measure. I can see why it was shut down, the experiment did fail and I was surprised that it even lasted this long.
Nonetheless, I did make some friends there and did have some good debates so thanks mmorpg for having the courage (insanity? lol) to try this experiment in unmoderation and let it run for as long as you did.
Sayonara for the second time.

Know why I posted in R&P?
I can't say anything in other forums, even non-offensive stuff, without it being moderated or deleted outright.
Now with 57.3% more flames!
This is not the place to discuss moderation. However, no one gets something moderated or deleted if it's not against the RoC. http://www.mmorpg.com/disclaimers.cfm#conduct

Well, it was nice sparring with a few of you, let me know what forum you guys choose. I rather enjoy it!
well i just found out about the r n p forums and i must say it was entertaining there at least. Me thinks some people need a tougher skin though. it was fun to have unmoderated forums where we can say what we wanted at least. i wasnt there long but it was some good conversations and some that was just junk. sorry to see it go.
i don't get those who say "good riddance". If they didn't like it they could just ignore it. No one was forced to check that place out

Hello i am new to this site is there anything that is really good and really bad about this site?
Yes, there is. The people who visit it.
I pleed guilty.

I play EVE.
if you play EVE, feel free to say hi or come try and shoot at me.... :P
Faxx Rheagar - Marauder pilot ...and I shoot back.
The lesson learned from that forum is that you have pretty much no chance to change someone's mind when it comes to politics.
