A Time for Change

[falco10291029]

Just leave him. Like 9i said he wont sway. Leave him be.

This thread was meant to discuss the change in leadership, not the naming of the kingdom or whatever these pointless arguements are about.

May as well try to knock down a Concrete wall with a twig, it just wont happen no matter how accurate and strong your swings are, the wall just wont budge. Oh Lance, as for the insults, i always insult in arguments, dont take it personally.

Stop being childish. Respond to my points, or do not respond.

China is a communist country. Supposedly, the workers have representatives which choose the government somehow. By that logic, it's a republic.

If the entire English speaking world considers China a republic, don't you think that just maybe......it is?

Bad premise, good conclusion. It's a republic because it's a republic, not because people think it is one.

Secondarily, Zormite wants to be a Republic and as such, is not going to change its name because you think its inaccurate.

Okay. Padren. Fifth+ time. I did not ask them to change their name.

That's nice. This thread isn't breaking any rules, though, so I have reopened it.

Offtopic, in my opinion. The purpose is to discuss the change of powers, you are talking about the how appropriate the name "republic" and such is.

Need I request that you search for all of the posts wherein Kaimetsu explained that offtopic posting is not against the rules?

[Darlene159]

If you guys want to argue about rules, do it in PM's please....and stop opening and closing the thread, if a mod closes it, leave it alone unless a forum admin says otherwise

[TeRRi2k]

So shouldn't this stay closed then? (or was it just reopened? just read this thread today so I'm not sure)

Never got around to congratulate you Aki, so congrats. Like I said, I don't think I ever seriously considered YOU being in power...(=b because you're too silly) but I trust Wren's judgement and I personally think you'll make a good leader as well. Good luck!

I'd love to know where you got that idea from, man.

I was pointing out that I never said I was representing the majority, so your original statement of whether I represent the majority or not is surprisingly the irrelevant thing!

Lol, not really

Where is this proof? I've yet to see someone able to point to it, if it even exists. I don't think it does.

Lol, you seem to be a bit confused here. You're saying there is no proof that the world is not flat? Great, ok, right, i guess that means the place you live in must be floating out in space somewhere. Watch out for those meteors, lance!

I've said this about five times now, but please show me this relevance.

Whee, i count one! Anyway. Why don't you show me the irrelevance, lance? Because i can't see any :O!
There are plenty of people who can see the relevance quite clearly, and then there's you denying it. It's like saying:
"There's a kid who damages his eyes, and so everything to him appears blurred. He reasons that the many many people who see things as sharp, clear and detailed are the ones with bad eyesight and it is he alone who sees the real world - a blurry one." Go get some glasses, lance.

2) Wren is the one who was going to close this thread when it did not warrant closing, not me.

Lol.

their color is crimson

Zormite Republic
We are zormites.

and they consider themselves a haven of sorts.

Zormite Republic
We consider ourselves a Republic of sorts.

However, again, that's not the issue.

No, but it is an identical one. Why are you adressing this one and not that one?

Sigh.

Yawn.

Except I did not claim that these world governments are wrong...?

Yes you did, look:

My primary point: No. It means that it's accepted, not that it's accurate.

Lolz0rs. Your next move of course will probably be to trip me on technicalities, saying "that quote doesnt actually show me saying that it isn't accurate. Don't bother, you know full well that you've shown your disagreement with those governments.

I am growing frustrated that you are trying to lead this debate away from whether or not the name of Zormite Republic is accurate or not.

Poor you. Perhaps you should have taken into consideration whether WE would get frustrated if you tried to lead this thread away from its original topic. Or are we not important for lance the Wind God's consideration?

Hey, how they feel is up to them, man. I offered a suggestion of a possibility, at best.

And we have shown how we feel about your suggestion. That said, why are you still here?

*claps* YAy he got the simile io couldnt come up with, but tried, as u can see. I geuss ill respond a bit.
You see Lance, you disagree with the name, but hardly anyone else does. This and the fact you are pointing it out leaves me this:

you constantly say show me the relevance, or show me the post, well since you are the accuser, you have the burden of proof, not the people defending it. You have yet to prove anything beyond the fact that you cannot argue well. Zormite is a repuyblic, and will keep the name as such (As far as i know). You stated that you didnt like it. You were told no one cares. Why are you still saying this then? It's like in Science class, they ask how u think the world started, you say "I think it always was there". "very nice" the teacher says. She goes on tecxhing "Well actu.." "I think it always was there", says the metaphor of Laqnce again. "We heard you". "Actuall..." "I think it always was there", says the metaphor once more. As you can see it gets quite annoying. This is relevant, dont say otherwise.

BAMORZ! his post there combined with my last one say we win *tries to close thread but realizes he has no mod powers*:'(

[falco10291029]

Ive got a better example: I know of a sea, called the yellow sea. i looked, but oh it isnt yellow! nothing about it is yellow. better example.

[falco10291029]

*obviously sarcasm* Wow Lance, who woulda thought that the great wond god was wrong?!

if you say those things arent irreleveant, i will slap you....

[falco10291029]

lmao actually it is we proved that Zormite shapes up to a definition of a republic. And I looked up, and dictator is a synonym for Monacrch, but when we first learn what a synonym is, we learn that it means a word that has the same OR SIMILAR definition. Dictator is different than monarch, it is listed as a synonym because of a few similarities, but not enough to go against the definition of a republic.

Here, look at this. A bit odd due to saving.

You are viewing the thread in the tree view mode, if you view it by time of post you'll see how it should read.


You are mislead by the fact that people often hit 'reply' or quote to a post part way instead of at the end. For those of us who view it in 'by date' mode it reads in proper order without 5 grouped replies.

Even still, he's the only one with whom it looks like that. There should be a rule against it =(

Oh please, no more rules! How silly, the posts on this page were made like...

falco, nappa, falco, protagonist, busyrobot, falco, gozelda, busyrobot, monkeyboy mcgee, falco, gozelda, falco, gozelda, busyrobot, gozelda...all sensibly ordered responses...

Falco did one more post than you, but it's a flaw in the tree mode display which has nothing to do with the way a user posts, so Im not sure how it could even be avoided.

ummm, I don't think he even realized he was doing it, if you took the time to check the dates of the post you'd see the chronology was staggered with the other posts in the thread.

[falco10291029]

Exactly, If i am online, i tend to reply to anything contradictory to what i say, so Lance and I were having aty it for a while, i was obviusly winning . I never do im bored posts, those i usually criticize when others do it. I also only double post when it is 2 different topics that quoting and editing dont work as well for, but i never doubled in this thread anyway, so kindly shut your trap

[Dehitay]

OMG, have you bumbs really not figured it out yet?
Let me say this one more time
a Republic DOES NOT infer that the citizens vote on the respresenting leader
a Republic simply means that a person represents the people of the republic
in Zormite's case, their representative would be the dictator
It is a democracy that infers that the citizens vote
but a democracy does not infer that they have a person to represent them

Stop cross referrencing a Republic to the system the US uses
We uses a Democratic Republic
in which we vote (democracy) to elect somebody to represent us (republic)
We are neither a Democracy or a Republic

[TeRRi2k]

I don't see why this argument is going on and on about what a republic is...etc. I thought the purpose of this thread is to say that Akira is the new Dictatress. I don't see arguing about this (all the above posts etc...) has much to do with this

[falco10291029]

Thats what we have tried saying, i ahve tried a couple times to get back on topic though....
