So then - on thread subject almost - is the goal to reach XP marks or build an efficient team that gives your faction an edge? As a Pred, I'm quite conscious of how much is taken and given during a battle. So what's the priority?

Note: This question doesn't take away from those achieving the Million Mark. You can't blame me for asking though.

Wowee, what's going on here? I do recall getting strangled when posting in here when I didn't have a Mill exp, and now there's a handful posting in here who haven't even accumulated that much.

Who opened the flood gates?

The two really can go hand in hand. Reaching XP marks means that you're better able to build a team that can give your faction an advantage.

I think they just keep letting themselves in.

And politely asking them to STOP does nothing either, lol. :-(

Sorry... Should we not answer questions by those who want to know what's what?

People should start a NEW THREAD where the answers to said questions are germane to the POSTED TOPIC. Answering an off-topic question makes both the person asking AND the person responding off topic.

Wow, you're trying to maintain some semblance of on-topicness in your own thread?

Boy do you have a lot to learn about how this place works.

This thread's first page is nothing but amusing banter about how sleep deprivation leads to HWM fame which then degraded; a "get back on topic" post doesn't first occur until page 4.

So I call shenanigans on getting a limit to "I've reached 1 mil!" posts only - especially when posts are related to reaching XP goals.

Your Pretentious statement seems even more accurate now

Not really. The question asked was related to this thread. And I'll hit one million tonight most likely, so you can relax. I'll be a offical member soon. If not for the off topic conversations though, this thread would likely have died and fallen to page 2.

Yeah, but why would you even want to be part of this group? Whenever I run up a million xp I'm keeping it to myself. And I'll consider anyone else posting it here to be flamebaiting and trolling and report them to the moderators. I'll have no part of this monument to egomania. I'm perfectly capable of that on my own.

Ahh, so now we're flame baiting AND using racist steriotypes.

And I thought you nonsencical ramblings were bad.

It must be tiring running around jumping on bandwagons and kissing a$$ all day. You should take a day off. :grin:

big difference between racial (my comment) and racist(!)
And it's stereotype, not sterio.

Care to explain the difference?

And if that's my only spelling mistake all day i'd be happy.

A racial stereotype, all Asians have small reproductive organs. All Negroids have large reproductive organs.
This "Stereotype" defines racial features. If my daughter grows up with my wife's genitalia, she will most definitely have painful sexual experiences because they were not "designed" to accomodate a phallus of an average Caucasian male.

A racist stereotype would be that all Asian people drop their feces on the street and eat dogs all in an attempt to make my own race (Caucasian) seem superior.

But.. guess you already knew that, being British and all

Did you just call me a **** Negroid mother ****? Look here you ignorant little prick, I'm going to let this bullshit slide this once because I'm convinced in your warped logic you weren't being a racist or a bigot. But you do that **** **** again and I report you to an Admin you got it? And your example of a racist stereotype is wrong because no one's ever said that about Asians. Your comment about Asians having small dicks is a racist stereotype. You saying that I love fried chicken and watermelon because I'm black is a racist stereotype. Me telling you that all the Dutch are weed smoking retard perverts is a racist stereotype.

mwam, stop it. go play some hmw or spend time with your family.

Dude, You need to calm WAY down. Nobody attacked you. Maybe a break from HMW would serve you well. Your incessant need to run from thread to thread trolling and putting your "two cents" in is getting tiresome. Perhaps it is YOU who needs reporting to the admins. Then again, I'm not a tattle-tale. :-B

For the record though, The racist vs racial thing is a slippery slope that should best be avoided to avoid offending folks.

Yeah tell me again how that word isn't racist?

Hate speech is hate speech regardless of who it's directed at within the race/group. And you know what gives me the right to toss my 2 cents into whatever I feel like? The Freedom of Speech I'm guaranteed as a citizen of the United States. And saying things you don't agree with =/= trolling. While you're also guaranteed the right to say any dumb ass thing you want, if you say it to the wrong person you're going to have to back it up.
