I've been playing the character of Sweeney Todd on this game for a long time now, and that's who Sweeney is, love him or hate him, just a character...
In real life, I work in IT, and have to be positive when dealing with utter fuckwits who should not be using electrical devices as they have no idea how they work. To them it is some sort of magic, as every IT personal will tell you...
So I created Sweeney, the voice I wish I could use on a daily basis, without having daily "chats" with HR. The voice of full sarcasm, of anger and revenge. Sweeney does leak out now and again, but I found out, if you smile when you say it, it's OK. People just laugh when you call them a fucking idiot to their face...
Anways, I'm Mark. Nice to meet you for a short few minutes. I will still be playing Sweeney, he is not going away yet, but wanted an opportunity for you to meet the man behind the mask...
I study, by choice a lone, english history from the times of the first roman invasions, through to queen Elizebath I, skipping Henry 8th as he was a prick. I've also studied roman, greek, egyptian, spanish and french history as I enjoy it. Love Terry Pratchett and World of Warcraft. Douglas Adams, Rick Mayle and Robin Williams are also heroes I grew up with, I am old...
So this is the man behind Sweeney, so know he means no offence, deep down. He's just some arsehole that keeps me sane...
From the recent Pride post, which I have always stood by, even during Monarchs hatred, there seems to be a new player who doesn't get it. I have always said, be who you want to be...
Be you...
The haters will try and claim you are subnormal, which is bullshit. How can we not be who we are? We are but us...
Now Wargasm was banned twice this year in the Pride event for discrimination. Not once, but twice. How dumb do you need to be to be banned twice in the same thread?
It disgusts me that these type of players still exist in this day and age. I thought we were beyond these times, that people have moved on, but it seems we are still being dragged down by these fuckwits...
Power to my Brothers and Sisters, as you rock. Never let anyone bring you down...
I've decided my time in Torn is done. I no longer care about faction wars, I couldn't give a shit about the forums any more...
I've been here a long time and seen the game change over the years. The game is so much more than when I signed up, and I hope it goes from strength to stength, but my interest is lost...
I will be around for the next few days to send my email to those I wish to stay in contact with, but other than that, may I wish you all well, unless you are are a f**kwit, then f**k you...
No you can't have my stuff and I give two shades if f**k about karma...
Your "Let's promote drama in the forums by not moderating them" experiment is going as planned...
For us, the poor players who have to put up with this utter downpour of shite, not such so fun. Ego post after ego post is killing what you wanted to happen. The excuse of "Stop posting in troll threads and they will go" doesn't work as we have 4 to 5, and growing, dedicated twats who boost each others threads...
If you are not careful, you will lose any control of the forums and they will drown in their own crap...
As you all know, I am Mark from IT. I strongly believe AI should be restricted to scientists and professionals, not to fucking plebs like us....
My reasons...
AI can do wonderful things if it is used to do what it does best. It can sort test results better than a human and it can diagnose sick people quicker....
But what does it actually do? It allows dumb fucks to seem to know what they are talking about until they get asked a question. It allows utter fuckwits to write corporate speaches about things they know nothing about, again, until they are questioned...
You may spot a theme here...
AI should be removed from plebs, and I mean that in the proper Roman term, the people...
Your cute pictures are nice, but they rip off actual artists. Your lack of knowledge should make you want to learn than relie on a clever google...
My main beef, is that you have no idea where data comes from. You have no source...
Is your question about the universe coming from NASA or flat fucking earthers? You have no idea...
