The Steve

Honestly dude, what I would say on a message baord is a sometimes different than how I would react in the real world. In the real world, I ignore A LOT of shit I hear on a daily basis. I have to, because if i argued with everyone that said something that pissed me off, I'd probably be in jail, or in a nut house, and both don't really appeal all that much to me. I'm just going to end up repeating what I've said already, so I'm going to end this for tonight. I will end on this though...I strongly disagree with you assertion that people's opinions that you don't like are 'killing' OCW. What is 'killing' OCW I believe has nothing to do with free speech at all..it's one of teh things implemented in V3, the shoutbox.

You are correct, I do feel the need to prove I am right, becasue I sincerely feel it's the speech and viewpoints that we don't like the most, so long as it doesn't promote actual violence, that needs protecting. Frankly, that's why there is the ignore feature...so you don't have to see the comments from people you don't like or find annoying. I use this feature a lot, and it is so much easier than chastizing someone. Religious fundys are the type of people that want to control what people say. You and everyone here are much better than that. As far as your stranger insulting my family hypothetical....it's only words man. Words don't hurt unless you let them. I wouldn't be happy, but what would stopping and getting into a shouting match with him accomplish except a bunch of looks from people and possibly the cops called?...nothing. What I would do is continue to walk downteh street until he was gone, then laugh about it.

I didn't take any offense, and my comment wasn't intended to to be anything but a debate against expressing opinions. I understand your viewpoint, but your solution is to silence. For whatever Bold's reasons, he doesn't like the card. He is allowed to feel that way, and he is allowed to express that. You are attaching the 'negative' tag because you don't like his opinion. I'll bet he could make a case that you are 'negative' because you don't agree with him. My point is, I've found that getting pissed off at every view you don't like is just plain counter productive. You waste all that energy yelling at someone becuase you don't like what he said instead of using all that anger to construct an argument to explain why he is wrong...or you could just ignore that you don't like, like I do with a lot of things.

What is wrong Ryder is someone shouldn't be required to say things that they don't mean, even if you don't personally like what is being said. I 100% disagree with everything Bold has said about this card, but he has the right to voice his opinion. Instead of fighting to silence opinions you don't like, take that energy into proving why YOU are right. It's much more satisfying to humble someone than it is to silence them.

I'm not saying the opinions should matter to you, I'm just saying there is nothing wrong with expressing your opinions. Do what I do and ignore a lot. :p

Jay, everyone is entitled to their opinion, weather you like said opinion or not. Having opinions is not, nor has ever been the issue. I agree with the rest though.

What else makes it medicore besides the ME? So far, that's all you're really complaining about.

Jay, he's not gonna make it past Turmoil.

I stand corrected. KD, use colors if you're IC please.

Riot, thread last week, too. I'm not trying to flame, just lettin' him know is all.

You're supposed to discuss what other people did...not shamelessly self-promote. You wont get many people to care about you if you continue to do that.

That janitor that stole The Steve's suppplements is a fuckin' dead man.

The pure gaming part must have been before I was around.

You are focusing on something that isn't all that important (number of matches) in the grand scheme. No matter what anyone says Smythe, this is not a pure gaming league. Never has been been, and I doubt will ever be.

It's not getting defensive Smythe, it's the fact you are wrong. As Jay said, a case can be made about me being active because I've just recently come back. Nate and Versus on the other hand, have been active right through the whole time. I really do not get how you're missing this. One does not need to be booked every single week to be considered active. RPs and feud building are, frankly, more important than if you've wrestled every week.

Smythe, what the holy hell are you taking about? Nate and Versus have been active, and I've been active for 2 weeks now. No offense, but just because something doesn't conform to your pre-determined standards, does not mean it it actually so. No matter how hard you try to justify it, Nate, Versus, and recently I, are active.

It wasn't planned, but I'm not disappointed I dirty pinned. The Steve is a heel after all...and thanks about the finisher. I have a PPV finisher that some have seen that is pretty sweet looking. Smythe....the 2 best SvR players in OCW are in the ME? Isn't that why you recruited me into Bloodline in the first place...so you wouldn't have to feel the wrath of The Steve? :p

Really? That's what happened? My memory is SHIT.

Was a tag match. I hit him with The Steve and and as his partner came in (unsure who it was), myself and I believe Majin cleared the ring, then I went back and pinned him for the easy 3 count.

You must remember the match (on Riot I believe) where my finisher kept you down for well over a minute before I actually pinned you...

Once again, Frank is gonna sell The Steve for over 25 minutes.

Thanks Nate. As far as the match change, the VP approved of it. If you notice in the match (my entrance specifically), Mr. Montpellier is at ringside. Versus...RP gold again. That little speech from Jay was, well....funny, considering the bullshit I had to go through last year. Jay is no nonsense when it comes to Lution, so as I'm reading the RP, which wasn't bad by the way, I could tell that shit was gonna hit the fan...I was just surprised to see a response so soon. Gratz to all the match winners and good job on the RPs...but for A-Mart, Trips, and whoever the 4th participant is, enjoy your qualifier victory now because the briefcase is mine at Lution.

Behave kiddies.

Ooohhhh.....The Cisko facepalm. That 10 times worse than the Picard facepalm.
