Human's just aren't good gods. Saradomin's actions show it. He is a good human but a god? Not a good idea.

2. V points out Xau-Tak, and the Queen of Ashes specifically. Xau-Tak is definitely not human, and the Queen of Ashes may or may not be a human. For Q.O.A according to someone Mod Raven hinted that this was not the case when he called her an "evil deity". So probably no, many malevolent followers? Likely but not herself. The downtrodden can sometimes turn to revenge and spite rather than liberation. She would make a good ally for Saradomin I believe since both are about militantly looking out for the weak/downtrodden. Follow them both. V can be biased keep in mind. Talking about downtrodden, our faction kind of is a bit. Imagine a "Vox Populi from Bioshock" kind of faction but for runescape.

Well i've ventured many more corners of interweb and somehow loomed back here once more passing by, huh! I would have some vision over this and about whateverelse subjects for you current citizens inhabiting!

I would take random example from one of latests replies where someone implied Saradomin isn't good for a god, or any human at all appearantly. Very shortsighted indeed, i hope the sayer has evolved from this already... It is any living being, anywhere at any time, being possibly good or bad for a god. Now this is where i will not advance to deeper stages, but embrace common hunch if anything! Figure and do your own things, brats! :D

When so minor things matter so majorly...

Still one of the finest threads on Saradomin around.

Good quality doesn't go to waste.
Hah. Your bar must be pretty low.

I can forgive you for bumping the other two Smurfledore threads, but this one needs the Kevorkian treatment. Patrolling Lore FC almost makes you wish for a Great Revision.

This thread is great, I agree with Neo!
You will learn that even the gods walk in darkness, and only Sliske knows the way.

Haters gonna hate :P

I've always thought Nev has such an elegance for writing threads and in-depth research. I don't think I've seen anyone top him yet.

In any case, most zarosians lack a bar anyway.

All well and good, but elegance and research are useless if you're only capable of one viewpoint. Zilyarine never, ever failed to spin absolutely everything that came his way in a way that supported Smurfledoughman; any alternative viewpoint had to be squeezed out of him like water from a rock.

With that amount of bias I can't say I'm capable of appreciating his efforts. Patrolling Lore FC almost makes you wish for a Great Revision.

Hardly different from
every faction in game.
Every faction does this in some form. Saradomin got more negative portrayals in a short time frame so he was an easy and frequent target for bashing. Unsurprisingly,
his player following didn't like this.
Thus, you get threads such as this and Theobald's.
The
Aegis
Endures


We are united in Saradomin's light. From this unity we draw strength.

Just because bias is widespread doesn't make it any less stupid or worthy of contempt. Patrolling Lore FC almost makes you wish for a Great Revision.

I don't particularly see the problem with this. You know what you're getting when you decide to participate on the "Defense of Saradomin". Nev's viewpoint is not more or less bias than most people who comment about Saradomin, and yet I don't see you coming up with nicknames for them.

Needless to say J-Mods want us to give our own meaning to most events. If you don't like Nev's interpretation, others abound.
