Don't be such a damn apologist. This entire forum is with Ammarians spouting inane imperialist mantra, and I'm not going to let it slip by when it's this insultingly stupid. They certainly don't show any restraint themselves. Maybe you should have the courage to stand up for your own country, eh? Also, don't tell me where I have a place commenting. I have my freedom of speech, and it doesn't end at being nice.

By the way, I'm Jin-Mei and Mannar mixed, so you don't have to worry about being "The same race as me", thanks.


By the ancestors, you are the most infuriating individual I have ever had the displeasure of speaking with!

Allow me to put plainly what you just stated:

"Don't be so nice! I have the right to insert my own convoluted, unrelated, hostile opinions into whatever discussion I feel like doing so because it's my right!"

And yes, your opinions are unrelated because this thread was started by a Matari showing respect and humility toward his enemies. His enemies responded by showing mutual respect.

Then others interjected their own opinions, forcing one side to defend itself but the entire conversation remained mostly civil. That is, of course, until you decided to jump in and hypocritically arrogantly accuse one side of being arrogant while undermining the entire purpose of the thread to start with.

Seriously, stop pleasuring yourself with your own arrogance, ignorance and hypocrisy and let those capable of carrying on a civil conversation do so without your petulant interjections. You're a disgrace to both of your ancestries.

.........

Jaiga and those involved, I apologize ahead of time for my unrelated response. I hope the remainder of your discussion continues without such interruptions.

To some of us, it is more than a simple faction, but a way of life.


Oh, I couldnt agree more... just who's way of life, exactly, now that seems to be the sticking point, hmm?


Mine, of course.

For God; Salvation is Imperative, but not at the cost of our Humanity!

And here is where the disagreements begin.

When your gut instincts tell you something is wrong, trust them. When your heart tells you something is right, ignore it, check with your brain first. Accept nothing, challenge everything.

For the clarification, defense comes at the hand of a shield and a sword. A shield alone is not enough to protect you. The Elder attack is an example of what happens when you carry a shield and not a sword. They will plot around your defenses and surely break them to do harm to you.

I will claim to be defending just as much as Rek or his kin will. We could debate endlessly, both bringing values we both believe to be true and ignoring each others. As such we have no option but to fight, for a time. The best a soldier can do is fight with nobility and respect.



Highly inaccurate analogy. Swords cause as much as damages than they prevent them. You only see on the shorter run. Would the shield have been a real shield, the attack you mention would have been restrained earlier.

Of course, you can just take that as the words of someone that have fought more than 3 years in the militia for the Empire, watching people spilling endlessly oil on fire with their swords and weapons for no positive result.

This is PIE Inc, what else would you expect ? Do not heed the words of ghosts and the delusionned, for that they will eventually disappear in the inevitable tides of progress.
