Angel,

Yes, it is. At a personal level, yes, it will. No, I'm not going for social change, and I don't know what better platform there is. It isn't a pressing issue for this subforum, I denounced what was evil. No, I don't think there is a rife problem, though no-one else seems to be denouncing evil content as I am. Yes, I did bring up Islam, to denounce what is evil in it as I denounced Jesus Christ's petty crime (note that no-one is making a big deal about Jesus). Yes, I noticed that no-one supports my condemnation of evil in ideologies.

No, I don't know, though I am hoping everyone goes against crime wherever they see it. Undoubtedly, no-one is supporting evil here, and the forums are not the best platform for going against crime. I personally put many of the world's problems, and my own, into my stories and RPing, albeit in a fantastical form.

I am not correlating other users to evil; my last sentence of my paragraph alluded to your last sentence of your previous post, and by “people” I was referring to criminals, I would never declare anyone here as evil, my sentences are replies to your own sentences.

All I can say is that it takes no effort to agree that crime and evil are worthy of condemnation regardless of their sources; this is not limited to anything particular, it is broadly used.

So you're just virtue signalling?

Forums on politics, ideology, religion, multifaith dialogue, Islam, history. Local political party meetings, public speaking events and debate groups. Pub whilst perched over a pint of Guinness.

Which is the issue I take. I'm here for discussion on writing; I'm happy for discussion about people's day to day lives, but I am not here for potentially inflammatory debate. Note that I am not trying to shut down criticism of Islam, I am simply saying that this is not the correct place for such content.

Azigarath said :

Because no one else feels the need to. Going around condemning all negative acts, past and present, isn't going to add to this forum.

Yes, but Mohammed's crimes bear no relation to Jesus Christ's crimes. No one is making a big deal about Jesus because everyone here is from the western world where Christianity has dominated the public mind for centuries, and know that his petty crime is a petty crime and not something to get worked up over. Someone made an off-hand joke about Jesus and you've launched into a multi-paragraph spiel about why Mohammed is so much more awful than Jesus, despite the fact no one was ever arguing the contrary.

No one is interested in your condemnation or condoning of perceived evils in ideologies. That isn't why people come to this forum.

Yeah, I misread what you meant. Apologies for that.

What we consider crime and what another country considers crime are entirely separate, so I would argue that condemning crime for the sake of it being outlawed by the government isn't necessarily the best solution, considering that governments can be corrupt or totalitarian or fundamentalist, etc.

I think we can say that evil is worthy of condemnation though, yes. :P

At any rate, I have to be up in... Two and a half hours. So I'm going to head out. Just so we're clear, there's no hard feelings Azi.

I don't know what virtue signalling means. I don't know anyone in other sites, so I prefer to remain close to those I already know. OK, so you don't want me to post here about what I posted because this isn't the right place for it, but no-one has to respond to me. No, no-one has the need to hate crime, and denouncing evil and crime won't do anything for this subforum, though I can still do so; I have no issues with how anyone else posts. Yes, Muhammad is supremely more evil than Jesus, which does not matter here in any means.

Next post,
You're right, no-one else here is interested in condemning crime and evil here, due to this being a forum for something else. Thanks for understanding my correction there, sorry for not explaining that better at first, I will have to be more on-point next time. Yes, crime is different per country, and within corrupt governments, what is considered crime may not be evil.

Exactly my point. I felt the need to emphasize on going against evil as that feels like the right thing to do; I thought that users were just not caring, so I felt obligated to elaborate myself further to prevent misunderstandings, and I think that led to more misunderstandings, starting from an optional, irrelevant question I put for Lilli. But as I said earlier, I did not expect other people to get involved, I am accustomed to people not reading anything I type, as that's what often happens.

I hope I wasn't keeping you up late, I'd feel bad if you spent so long just to reply to me. Yes, understandably, no hard feelings anywhere, I think everyone behaved in a professional manner. As I said earlier, all discussion was done maturely and appropriately.

I am the opposite of pedantic, so I tend to ignore rules and do what I feel is right, I'm like Lilli. This behaviour led me to personally preventing two real-life r*pes, one almost happening in my own car, and that's what made me, me.

The anticipation of waiting to see what happens to Azul next is overwhelming. He is trying to escape, trying to create a new physical form and escape Kuro's body. Now absorbing energy that can hurt him. Kuro will bring Azul back in and most likely suffer the same toxic effect...

Kuro a half demon, and emotional train wreak, that is absorbing some power that can be fatal to him...why does this seem familiar...
and nothing was spoiled :P

Lol, this is rich! What on Earth have I started? I'm sorry for bringing this entire discussion up, I felt the need to troll again, and so did it, which is probably bad, seeing as I could have easily got all of us muted, except Annie, So I'm just going to apologize.


I have been up to writing an idea for a Witch Hunter RP. In this Rp, Witches have stolen relics of great power and are besieging the land which has oppressed them for the past 1000 years. Just a thought. Are any of you guys interested?

I think I know why ITV failed, it is because A) I stopped posting and started playing RS again, neglecting posting for you guys in the process, and so you lost interest. B) I plagiarized Mass Effect's lore, kind of. C) I didn't get the scenarios up soon enough. that being said, I will continue to post for Annie, who is the only active RPer on the thread. It's to satiate her chronic RP addiction, which she should totally get help for. #wearehereforyouannie Just your friendly neighborhood gay boy! =)
