Actually, I'm already in the crew... the mother of all poser crews, the Club-a-Club club, which was made long ago, in the general forum and was all about how stupid clubs where (remember, when 10 nOObs started a club each day in general). So I just decided to laught at them. Some guys like Izaxs, Rifter, BomClock and Lpmofo and some other older user joined. It was fun :)
Now Newgundling posts there fairly often and all, and he's not "in" it ( as if).
So all this Jibba-Jabba leads me to: Why the hell shoud I join a crew when I can enjoy all the benefits of politics as it is. Unless there is some things about other forums that lead to other forums that lead to other forums etc.
If I was going to join any crews at all, it would either be all of them, or none of them hehe. Just to screw around.
Unless I actually some sort of benefit from joining up with some crew like the PC. Like a badge of merit or something :p

Well if you join up with the DAG you get a groovy title and a demon form that will be immotalized in the flash we're working on. The PC gives you access to the members only areas of Snooble, maybe some other stuff to I don't know.
Oh and Shrike, bravo man, speaking as a DAGer the flames dying down makes for a nice change of pace.

Well, with the CCC, I get to pick MAH own super cool groovy pointless title. Beat that! I can pick ANY important sounding name, like " President of earth" or some title like that hehe. Funny. And if I were to join the PC, I wouldn't post on their forums, so, blah. I'm NG-only and I have time to debate here, but not much elsewhere as PickleMAn keeps me busy and all, and after that there is Ng Museum 2 and after that there is some onther stuff and then some more other stuff and more...
Always... *zombifies*

I'm thinking its the telegraph terminology. I have no idea why the british would use archaic terms like that, but then I'm not british, so I guess my opinion really doesnt matter.

Did I say something that was unholy English? Was it the 'wow' or something? I am British...I didn't realise you could tell just by reading what I'd written.

it was the phrase "full stop", instead of the word "period".

Aaahh, right. I had no idea that Americans used that instead of 'fullstop'. Clearly there are many 'Britishisms' that I wasn't aware of.

Ok this DAG/PC thing is getting on my nerves so until any of you start acting like the intellegent users you are I'm leaving the PC and I advise anyone else that feels this way to do the same. I really did'nt think you guys would be so blinded by a title to let it go to your heads were all equal memebers of the political BBS and the good experience comes from all us posting and discussing together not from arguing over silly differences because of what group we are in.
I hope FUNK and Ted agree on something because until you do I'm ashamed to be a poster on a board with such segregated ideals.

Well, DBF, sorry to see ya go, but you have a point.
On the other hand, the squabbling seems to have died down. Perhaps you'll reconsider after Ted and FUNK finish that treaty thing.

I'm sorry you feel that way DBF. I sent Ted a rough draft of an agreement, but ratification on our side is slow going. Noone wants to flame anymore, but they dont want an official truce either. go figure. I encourage all DAGers to vote on the issue. I also havent gotten a return email from Ted, I'll assume hes just busy/I havent checked my email since he sent it. I've been trying to downplay the whole thing, as its really just a side issue to the real debates on more important issues. But if I'm going to talk about it, cool pic shrike.

First of all there no such language as "American" so first off your cousins an "idiot" and second off most americans feel threaten when they go outside of a situation with english speaking people they get nervous and begin thinking and thats a problem with most americans when we being overthinking situations we do something stupid and thats why your cousin says stupid things like that its not that hes an asshole its just that he does'nt know how to accept your different.

Yes, we're much better when we're not subdued and brainwashed!
But it's true. Too many Americans are trapped by their own ignorance of anything 'foreign'.
This is probably because we've developed a culture that influences other cultures, rather than accepting them. I iwsh more Americans spoke a second language. The world would be so much nicer if we didn't have to think. ; ]

I don't know if there's some sort of glitch that automatically erases all my posts right or if a Mod has something against me, but if it's the latter I'd like an explanation. I don't cause trouble on this forum and I think it's just common courtesy to give me an explanation. Thank you.

I could go for that. But with that fatty food tax, those free cookie are going to sky rocket in price! I don't know if I will be able to affort such a gift.
Yeah.
You PC and ADG/ADC (whatever) guys.. seriouly. What is so hard with ignoring or just saying "hey, wtf am I doing? Wasn't there some point to politics or something".
But the whole thing is still weird in my mind.. what reasons exactly do any of you still have to fight? Does anyone spam the other's forum or something?
*sigh*.
Actually, I'll take another one of those... *sigh*. That felt good.
Solution: The NPCBSAPFC ( not Politics Crew but still a politic forum crew). Haha. Now, just all join in luv and joy you big dopes :) Spread some.

I tend to beleive that the people who post here are mature and educated. It seems that your disagreements are wide spread, but come on, you should be able to resolve this conflict in a mature way. I dont exactly know all the details, but I am sure that the majority of you will agree on this. I know, because Ive read, that a treaty is being writen, so dont think Im not aware of the propossed outcome. I just wanted to say this because I was told that I can post here, and since then the issue has been focused on almost exclusivly. Come on guys, Im sure that youre able to do this, Im just hoping that its done soon.

Okay, for the moment I'm back - nothing really much to say, but I was worried all of you would forget about me if I vanished. I'll be on vacation at my island for the next 11 or 12 days, I've yet to decide when to come back to the lovely midwest. Fare well without me, all you glorious PC members and Mod-Version Shrike/Ted.

Can you imagine what your favorite websites would look like if they were run by Mr T?

As a rule, it works best with pages that use a lot of text.
