Trying to make a joke.

Rain said:
jokes are supposed to be funny, right? well, that wasn't remotely funny at all; it only showed bad taste on your part.

consider yourself lucky that you didn't get banned, because that was lame and lame "jokes" should warrant a ban.

Groove said:
Make world a favor, don't breed.... ever.
One should et least know the definition of the words "diaspora" and "holocaust" before using them in a sentence (That goes for any word by the way).
The stupid thing is that even if what I wrote really had any connection with diaspora or holocaust, it would still be like charging black people who call each other niggers with racism.

Take a hike.

Rain said:

whoever warned you knows what it means, but apparently you don't.

OH MY GODZ, THE HOLOCAUST IS A FUCKING LIE AND IT DIDN'T HAPPEN! :)

Groove said:

Even though I could probably save myself from your stupidity if I were to report this now (and no, the smile wouldn't help you), I doubt they'll IP ban so it's not worth the effort.
At any rate, I think this is the point when I stop replying to your posts.
Have a nice life and try not to die from chocking on your soup, because people might think your stupid.

chousho said:

1. Why would they IP ban Rain for that when a few posts before you made some worse comments, and yet expect that you, as well, wouldn't get banned?

2. Also, if you're telling people not to look stupid you might want to spell "choked" and "you're" correctly. ;(

Hajime Saitou said:
Diaspora, potentially.

We've got one original statement from Groove that was most likely in bad tast

Chousho did better than both of you combined in just one post.

Groove said:
First, I didn't make worse comments. What I did is a form of sarcastic comparison combined with some black humor.
That is, comparing one thing to another in an offending manner combined with one or both of the things being a tragic occurrences or facts.
Another example: This salad tastes just like that guy who blew his brains out all over the new schedule board in the office.
Now what he did is just stupid.
Besides, that's how racial jokes work, it's okay if I say it, but if he does, it's racism (not that I care even if it is).

Groove said:
It had nothing to do with diaspora either.

Since when Jew-jokes are bad taste? I guess I'm getting too old.

Oh, I'm terribly sorry for letting stupid people know what they are, and I'm saying it as one that never attacks people on forums (not when they attack me first anyway).
Besides, without ill intent, you're the last person who should tell me that.

Hajime_Saitou said:
You know, I agree with a lot of what you wrote here, but I think you're making one mistake. Your original statement was intended as joke. I took it as a joke, I wasn't offended at all. I'll say what I said to Rain, again. It's up to the individual to take something as funny, or in this case, a joke. Just because you intended your words as a joke doesn't mean that everyone will view them as such.

You say that what you did was make a sarcastic comparison, and I agree, but that doesn't exclude it from being worse from what Rain said. I don't think what you said was worse though. Both of you were making sarcastic comments and they seem to have about equal potential to offend. I took both of them as sarcastic, personally.

Realistically, taking your original post in context, it really didn't.

Chousho didn't make any mistakes in his post, you both have at least one. I'm just keeping score. :P

Groove said:
While I certainly understand what you're saying, only someone stupid could take my remark seriously.

"Careful, I have bacon in that sandwich"

I was being sarcastic, he just shot it in the air aka "I'm clever" or "You did it, so did I. What's wrong with that?", and while it's clear that I didn't get offended, more over I didn't even care, it just looked stupid.

And that was exactly my intend in the first post. To show that I got "an infraction" with a totally unrelated comment. It's not the point of that I got infraction, it's based on what paragraph it was made. If he said something like "mocking religion" or "black humor", I'd had no problem with that whatsoever.

It was regarding Rain not Chousho, even though he jumped to save Rain like that mother who lift a truck to save her child.

Groove said:
p.s. Rain is a girl... Without being called a chauvinist (which I'm not, but it will probably happen anyway), some things make sense now.

Hajime_Saitou said:
Now you're really gonna get it. You're on your own for this one. :P

Rain said:
lolol. this is hilarious.

honestly, you guys think I took it seriously and I'm actually offended by it? hell, no. I knew it was a "joke," though a poorly-executed one.

I merely thought the infraction valid, is all.

haha, thanks for all your ad hominem attacks, by the way. ;) it's great when one has to resort to that - on the internet, no less.

P.S. don't you want to know which moderator gave you that infraction? so you can think that moderator's "stupid," too?

ah, this is amusing. my haters continue to increase. :(

Hajime_Saitou said:
Groove, stop posting in this thread. I'm going to edit this post with the rest of what I have to say.

P.S. don't you want to know which moderator gave you that infraction? so you can think that moderator's "stupid," too?

Groove said:
For what reason exactly? I already said in my 3rd post here that I won't reply to any of her posts anymore. Not because it's a flame, or off top of whatever, but just because I don't see any point in replying (i.e. I don't see how I can reason with her). Other than that, there is no reason whatsoever for me not to post here.

Groove said:

I will reply for this one thing however, because it is important.
While I do know the name of the mod, I did not write it on purpose. It was not my intention to ridicule any mod whatsoever. My intention was only to bring entertainment, that's it.
I PM'ed the said mod a few minutes after the infraction. Explaining him exactly why what he said makes no sense (read: bullshit), and I pretty sure he understood it and did not get offended in anyway.
Stop judging people by your shoes, if you're stupid, that doesn't mean that all people are. Some people are more then capable of realizing their mistakes without being childish about it.

DazarGaidin said:
^Its almost like they provided an example lol

Groove said:
:lol: You don't want to know how much chi I've lost while restraining myself from saying anything.

Argh! Why in the name of God this forum does not have any smiles! Makes me nuts. I told ya, Hajime. (PM on AN)

Hajime_Saitou said:
I could kick someone out if it will make you feel better. How about DazarGaidin?

Yeah, no smilies sucks, but you've worked something out with text. I just think of the corresponding emoticon on AN when you do that, which I assume is what you were going for.

Groove said:
... I didn't understand what you've said..
It seems that you didn't understand me either.

Hajime_Saitou said:

That's the last time I make a joke. :(

I jokingly mentioned that, if it would make you feel better, I'd kick someone out of the club for you. Then I chose DazarGaidin, as another joke, and he knows why. I got what you meant, don't worry.

I have some tar, feathers and a torch. Who's with me?

DazarGaidin said:
As for Da Capo, I did have it rated as an upside down 9 but umm I upgraded it to a 5 cause its the closest thing to an s for super :P

I might actually rate it higher tho, cause i appreciate it more compared to hits horrifying sequel Da Capo II lol
