If only, if only. I'd love to replace the OSRS with the much simpler "Don't be a dick." but... well, it's astonishing how much trouble people have with that notion sometimes. :(

Problem solved! :)

When you come to our aid on time, let us know. Anyway-two wars for two wars, we helped with Iraq and Afghanistan after all It's your fault for wasting your two turns on non-World Wars

Because a large group of people just doesn't develop a culture because what's words how does?

I think you need to use your words, Joe.

Put enough people in a space and a bacterial culture will appear. Put them in there long enough and an actual culture will appear alongside of those bacteria.

I'll admit that the tank got you out of WWI, but I'll chalk that up to American ingenuity because we invented the caterpillar track, as for WWII, that was Hitler being stupid and us taking care of Japan, which I'll chalk up to America again because of Jesse Owens, who probably fried Hitler's brain.

You're a sheep. The Sheep haven't been to war since The Great Shearing of 1604.

Indeed. Even moderators.

That wasn't a war... that was a massacre.

NSG is slowly becoming /b/

I'm sure.

It's /b/ with a monocle trying hard to look like a million dollar trooper.

This is getting sigged.

NSG is nothing like /b/ nor will it ever be. In four years I've been here, it's not changed, aside from a steady decline in conservative posters who can debate at a decent level.

Jesse Owens? Hah! Great Britain slew Hitler with a nude photo spread of Winston Churchill.

There are a lot of terrible 'liberal' debaters as well on here. That's not what he said.

Pretty much.

There are lots of terrible debaters on NSG regardless of their political spectrum. The problem is, the amount people who can (in my opinion anyway) debate the best is overwhelmingly liberal. There's maybe a handful of those proficient debaters who posts from a conservative viewpoint. NSG would be much better if both sides of the political spectrum were equally represented. And it's not a matter of liberals always being right, frankly a conservative viewpoint is often needed to question the value of progress.

In political spectrum terms, I'm to the left but I frequently find myself debating from the right purely because it's nice to have an opposing viewpoint.

No not really

I don't see threads about supporting rape, having gore threads, or just plain troll threads on here like /b/

Believe me, I've seen and been on /b/ so I know the difference
