TW Staff as U.S Gov't w/ special guests

[milosh]

Nope, not I. I don't resort to finding mates on 2d spaceship games.

Think she was referring to Panda Bear... too many pandas imho.

Monica Lewinsky... thats pretty funny. Anything else u want to talk about with me while ur at this thread?

Dont talk about u and i... all those long hours we used to spend together when u were a <ZH>. Or all those talks we used to have. Or any of the other females you've been with since you made dean and they all tried to suck up to you to get into staff or get a promotion. Lets see... how many e gf's has pl had ... hmmmm id... panda... who else is there pure? :wub:

Now that i think about it... what are you trying to do? Maybe you should keep going a little further in your attempt to start drama lol...

o yeah i just remembered what is was the girls all agreed on about u: BORING

You're the only one casuing drama, cause you searched to see who had posted your name....like you always do.

No one takes you seriously, and no one wants to be in a relationship with you, online or in real life evidently. Stop being so obnoxious.

Nope, not I. I don't resort to finding mates on 2d spaceship games.

Bullshit. Exhibit one your honour. RIGHT HERE!

Well, I'm just glad to see TW Staff is firmly on the side of Israel. Damn those little buggers on the West Bank... no matter how much we seem to build across the legal boundary and force them out of their homes, they still complain and complain and complain. A bunch of whiners, if you ask me. And without a military, all they can think to do is suicide bomb and use these pathetic terrorist tactics. It's disgraceful: why don't they just get an army? Can't you just pick that up at Wal-Mart? Let's show some decency here; let's show some real money, Palestinians. Where's your financial backing? Who is your sponsor?

Sounds like a parallel to the golden days when staff could ban for PMd racism. I think you hit the nail on the head with this one, PL.

[Mantra-Slider]

Roger federer... that borign piece of junk....

I'd most likely be ricardo ricco... the new hero, damn can that guy bloat... put prove his greatness, THE COBRA is my new hero

cheater!

[Pandagirl!]

Bullshit. Exhibit one your honour. RIGHT HERE!

We'll chalk our relationship up to facebook.

[Dabram]

cheater!

it was too obvious, i called it after his first win..

the guy is a total dick, doesn't care about the sport or anyone besides himself.. can create a 1+ min gap in 1 min of climbing.. yeah very believable..

i'm actually glad he was using. he was a fucking asshole anyway, verbally attacking anyone in the sport; pozzato (ok he's a bit of a playboy) but.. bettini....wtf is he thinking? he should be worshipping bettini; idiot ricco.

i hope cobo/de la fuenta weren't using though.

chances piepoli is using are 50%.. another guy who gives a shit bout anyone besides himself..

i'm glad they're catching cheaters though.. there are rumours there's this new "EPO", but apparantly it's also already traceable.. bit vague story.. but yeah there will always be new drugs, and then there will be new ways of catching the drugs, and cheaters will be caught.. luckily right now they seem to be on top of things..

ps. Federer isn't boring; he's amazing, a gentleman, graceful, makes everything look effortless, he's art.
pps. I'm not gay

ppps. it's SOOO difficult to watch the tour de france (or cycling in general) these days.. almost impossible to cheer for anyone; the next day they'll be caught.. and the best cyclists are the most boring ones ever.. fuck off with Evans, Menchov, Sastre.. boring boring booooooooooring.... they'll probably end up 1/2/3 though.. maybe the american dude #4 to have another piece of boredom in the top 5.. zzzzz

[Spikester]

pj you have the best avatar i've ever seen...

yes.... now suck my cock

Even though I probably shouldn't be taking this serious too much, I still wanted to say something about this. Using such a difficult conflict as a metaphore to describe the staff vs cheaters combat, is a bit dangerous since with this conflict a lot of emotions are involved. There is so much things you don't see or hear about in the news when it comes to Palestina and the control of Israel. In fact by 'comparing' staff with Israel and the US Goverment, you kind of say staff has a political agenda which determines what acts you will take on 'terrorism'. For instance Bin Laden was trained by US Intelligence so that that group of soldiers could be used to 'spread democracy' in dictatorial states in the Middle East. After a few 'wins', Bin Laden also wanted to free Palestina from the Israelian control and bring 'democracy' there. It was then when US backed off. They had no interested in that zone, plus it was too dangerous since it also would have effect on their relationship with Israel. Bin Laden realized US never cared for democracy and civil rights in those countries, but just had a polical agenda for trade, oil purposes and to make US company investments possible. By making such comparison with TW Staff it would imply staff does not care about cheating, but bans certain specific players for political reasons and let other cheaters get away with it. Plus you'd make players like Vys and Delectable people who battle for the total freedom of tw poplulation. But perhaps they do...

I hear you bram, the sport is really struggling right now with all the doping, the witchhunt on the cyclers and the lack of personalities. For me this year really sucks because I cant watch any of it live due to my housing cooperative replacing eurosport with a swedish sport channel. Sure I get more football now (this channel have rights to swedish and spanish league) but I miss my summer cycling eurosport show all 3 major races damnit!

shut up terrorist, go suicide bomb yourself in a crowd of little children and try saying its battling for political freedom and democracy of the masses

yeah, go fuck yourself

[HateTheFake]

is there a difference to why vys is allowed back and delectable banned?

Did they both not cheat or evade?

Why not make the same decision regarding both of them. Ban for life, or no ban. Do something equally, because this doesnt seem the least bit fair. It just gives people a reason to cheat, then they can evade and be allowed back if they suck up to staff

shut up stupid pig. Go blow up hospitals, murder children and leave depleted uranium scattered across europe and the middle east and try saying its "battling terror" or "liberation of people who just want u to leave them the fuck alone"
oh btw.. here's a bit of trivia you can share over the dinner table: More iraqi civilians have died since the current U.S occupation of iraq, than all the years of saddam's rule.

oh yeah, i forgot that since they don't have a political backing, aren't wearing uniforms, and use improvised explosives, they aren't soldiers. Really easy to pick a definition of "civilians" that fits for you.

way to jump on his post without jumping on Lame's post. He basically said that Bin Laden is fighting for democracy... You think a guy that's richer than Bush's whole cabinet and trains people to commit suicide doesn't have a political agenda? sheesh.

In no way do I think that we should be doing any of the things that you've mentioned, but that doesn't mean that we aren't the lesser of two evils right now.

And for your "facts": I'm sure Saddam kept immaculate records of all the people that have died due to political reasons during his reign. I'm equally sure that we can correctly identify dead "civilians" and their nationality. It's been assumed that a good many of the insurgents are not Iraqis anyway, but trained mercenaries or "terrorists". And we wouldn't bomb hospitals and other public places if it wasn't know that Saddam hid weapons and soldiers in these places, purposfully putting his own people at risk. What a nice guy.

And Bin Laden's not trying to liberate anyone... terrorists don't fight to liberate.. they fight to instill fear in their enemies and undermine institutions...

Keep in mind none of this is arbitrary. We have procedures for banning, maximum ban lengths is set for each offense and repeat offense for most stuff.

I don't know the story on Vys but we do know Delectable has evaded prior bans. If that was the same case with Vys we would have thrown away the key long ago.

Pascone had nothing to do with Delectable coming back for TWL. I didn't like it or agree with it but it wasn't of his making.

Bin Laden was trained and funded by the CIA to fight the Soviets during the Cold War to keep them out of the Middle East, mainly around Afghanistan. He wasn't fighting to spread Democracy. (I know you're not saying that, hopefully, Nuggets. Just restating it).

• Lancet surveys of Iraq War casualties:
  The second survey published on 11 October 2006, estimated 654,965 excess deaths related to the war, or 2.5% of the population, through the end of June 2006.*

• Through September 22, 2007 approximately 19,429 insurgents/militia were reported to have been killed according to the U.S. military*, including 1,309 bombers.

• As of November 4, 2006, the U.N. High Commissioner on Refugees estimated that 1.8 million Iraqis had been displaced to neighboring countries, and 1.6 million were displaced internally, with nearly 100,000 Iraqis fleeing to Syria and Jordan each month.*

• U.S. Monthly Spending in Iraq - $12 billion in 2008

Edit: And as for Lame's post I can't believe anyone took it serious enough to respond to it.
