      I wonder... can you call a GM on a GM? Would have been amusing to find out.

          Well, the guy introduced himself as "The Magnificent GM So-and-so"... May as well have said: "I am [GM]God. Who shall I smite today, puny mortal?" Not exactly one to talk out of a decision.

          (If I ever get to be a GM for any game, I'm soooo introducing myself like that.)

          Edit: I'm hoping the guy posting above me isn't selling what I think he's selling. -_-

            America is the best friggin country on the planet ;; and I'm glad that pot-head college students(my peers, mind you, I'm not a pot-head) and underaged drinkers will be the driving force in this nations future!!! XD

            Oh, it doesn't hurt that in 30 years, no one will give 3 batty shytes about violence in video games, because all of our law-makers will have been avid XBL players since college.

            Sorry for derail, I've woken up with a headache and I just love America right now.

            If we don't like something, collectively, if our hatred for it throbs like an abscess beneath every thread, does that mean that they're doing something right?

              My little trip back to visit my old buds in Tokyo was interesting. Each time I would be walking around, I would see around 10 girls that would be walking in front of me that might look hot. Then I see their face and I was...well...you know.

              What sucks more is that my cousin and I were on the train back home and I was kinda sleeping because I was exhausted from jetlag. I got up for my stop and then I noticed that there was this really, really hot girl sitting next to me. My cousin also told me later that she was checking me out also, so I could have probably got her number if I asked >.>

                This is how I see most teenagers these days. I didn't drink until I was 21, and even then I didn't drink a lot. I'll have a cold one maybe once every couple of weeks. I just don't see why most adolescents have this drive to go out and get trashed every weekend. It's sad.

                If you ask me, our lawmakers are probably not going to be the type of people that faceplant every weekend in their front yard. They'll probably be well respected citizens working to better the nation.

                Sorry for going offtopic. In other news, wow I can't believe that GM. I still don't understand how there can be JPN players that tag "JP only" when I would think that by now Americans would have proven themselves as being knowledgable about the game.

                  Gulkeeva, it would be awesome if you can post some of the pic of those mithras you got on your sig+avatar. I might use some for sig-making later.

                    Need I remind you of the Kennedys. They were the "Party Boy" administration.

                    Truth is, most Americans go wild at some point or another. I wouldn't even say the majority of law makers are respectable. There tends to be a lot of hypocracy that goes into law making in this country. An example would be that Arnold Schwartzenegger is against violent video games. The freaking Governator. He's killed sooooooooooo many people in the movies he's made, it's not even funny. And the bad thing about all of this. It's fantasy violence. It's not real. What the HELL are our lawmakers doing against real violence?

                      TGM, wtf does this have to do with anything? Are you stupid? No offense, but this particular convo has nothing to do with anything and I stand by what the GM said.

                      For your information, America is a country, not a race. When you look at this MELTING POT of a country, you realize that American defines a group of people, but not a particular race of people.

                      Now, if those players had said, you stupid fucking n[word] or something just as obscene, deroogatory and with racial connotations, then I can see where that player has a point.

                      In fact, any Americans who feel this is racist is because they already assume America is just solely made up of caucasian race, which to me is racist in itself, as you are taking the stance that other races of people do not exist in this country ....

                          BTW, I apologize for that emotional outburst, but when I read your comments, basically taking side of that player, I immediately got angry because with your statement, you basically state, indirectly, that I am not American, because I do not fit the profile of someone from the Cacausoid race and thereby, due to my skin color or asian features, that I am not entitled to be an American.

                          You need to tread these grounds lightly unless you like pissing off people left and right ...

                            Are you stupid? When did I ever say that I thought things like that were racist? In fact, I wasn't even addressing you in that post, I quoted:

                            Interesting, a theoretically Japanese person makes a comic that basically says America sucks, everyone thinks its funny. I'm curious as to how many of the same people would shit bricks if someone posted a comic saying how much Japan sucked. Personally, I dont care if thats what the original artist thinks. People are free to think what they want, even if its racist. I personally think racism is wrong, but you still have the right to feel that way.
                            Notice I was pointing out to Caspian the idea that saying things like America sucks is not considered racist by GM's? English conprehension do you need it? Oh and fyi, when you call someone stupid and then say in the next sentence "no offense" don't bother, it is offensive and only makes you look stupid.

                              I'm with the GM in that. Calling people "rubbish Americans" and saying "America is a rubbish country" isn't technically racism or a derogatory or hateful comment about "national origin".

                                all parties, calm down. splash some cold water on your faces and relax.
