Just wanted to get this out there
Lockedby the maverick phantom wanderer (formerly macoza, nodice, kp, etc.) · about 15 years, 9 months ago
Should a new nation known as Kings be created now or in the near future, and that new nation’s government be a monarchy (of any type), how long will it take for some idiot to denounce this nation as evil?

I think you have monarchy and dictatorship confused
by dadspad · about 15 years, 9 months ago
In reply to Just wanted to get this out there
They are two different types of government.
You can look at world history and judge for youself. You will usually find that dictatorships are more cruel to people than monarchies usually are.

In reply to I think you have monarchy and dictatorship confused
The name of the nations is “Kings”. It is a monarchy. And what does one call the head of a monarchy?
When you have the answer to this, you should be able to understand the point I was trying to make.

My point
by the maverick phantom wanderer (formerly macoza, nodice, kp, etc.) · about 15 years, 9 months ago
In reply to I don’t know why we bother
No one needs enlightenment.
I am not before my time. (Some would say that I am far behind the times.)
No one needs to fall to my level of thinking.
My point is simply this:
You would call the head of a monarchy either the Queen of Kings or the King of Kings. According to a few members of several faiths/ religions, only one being has the right to be called “the King of Kings”. Such a person would denounce this nation as evil because the head of that nation claims a title that they (the members of those faiths/ religions) believe should belong only to that single being (the being that deserves that title).
Nodice,
who tried very hard to avoid offending the members of those faiths/ religions that I refer to without their names. -

I can tell you exactly who he is
by tig2 · about 15 years, 9 months ago
In reply to Who are you to tell someone else
He is someone who has been an active participant here for a number of years. He has taken the time to get to know the regulars here and we have all had the opportunity to get to know him. He has proven himself to be credible to his peers and has developed a number of friendships with us.
In short, Nodice, he has the backing of his peers to say just about anything he likes. You may also say anything you like but you will find th experience of doing so somewhat different.
Finally- you don’t get to rag on Maxwell. If you do, you will find that his peers will have no problem standing up with him.
Respect on this board is something that you earn. You have not completed that essential step.

So far your history is one of posing bull$h!t questions and then playing word games, like the original topic and your subsequent posts here.
As to which 100-response post Max is referring to, it was your rant about juvenile responses and how nobody was replying to you.

Apology
by the maverick phantom wanderer (formerly macoza, nodice, kp, etc.) · about 15 years, 9 months ago
In reply to Just wanted to get this out there
First, I should apologize.
My conduct here is obviously that of a troll. Such behavior is deplorable and I am sorry for it. And while an apology from me probably won’t mean much (after all, I have yet to prove myself worthy of any respect), it does mean something. To the people I have irked, offended, and disappointed- I apologize.
