You don't think this thread has served its full purpose? No one is talking about Heaven and Hell any longer, that seemed to actually end on the first page. THAT was predictable, no one wants to talk about it really, it's a topic that's been brought about too many times. What this thread had transpired to was a pointless argument between me and Pr0xy.

AGAIN, I didn't order an administrator or moderator to close the forum, and in fact I didn't directly ask them. It was even more like a suggestion than anything, and AGAIN I point out a freedom of speech that I have in this General Conversation forum. Perhaps you should read the three basic rules laid down by Sovereign before you come in here acting all high and mighty as if your Senior Rank endows you with some sort of authority. You don't impress me simply because you've posted on www.zelaron.com longer than I have. When you're dead is that something people are going to look back and recognize, you're 2500 some odd posts on www.zelaron.com Lenny? Do you think you're a great individual? When you're laying on you're deathbed are you going to look back with pride because of the countless hours you devoted to Zelaron and your Senior Membership? You don't impress me Lenny. I know Pr0xy says I'm just trying to bust people down, but I'm not doing so. In your case, I'm only bringing you down to my level. You're idea of yourself on this forum is heavily inflated. I may be new to www.zelaron.com Lenny, but I'm not new to this world, I'm not new to the internet, and I'm definitely not new to forums, so get with the program.

Oh and look Tyrant brings the topic back to discussion anyways, so I guess there is no reason to remove this thread. However Lenny, you still need to put some thought into yourself.

Put some thought into myself, eh? What a nice phrase.

...surrounded by other people staying on topic and answring Kagoms question.

You may not have ordered them to but you certaintly gave them permission to close it:

Admins if you want you can go ahead and remove this thread
Since when have people been allowed to give permission for something that is not there's to be removed from public view, let alone closed? Maybe they should remove certain posts instead.

Let's see...

1. Serious Topics...yep, this is a serious topic.

2. Try to keep post on-topic...I guess we've gone a bit off topic here...but no-one is actually answering our posts to each other so that can't be too bad.

3. NO FLAMING!...we're not flaming each other. This is merely an argument between two people.

I know number 2 talks about people's opinions, but acting as if you have the authority to get someone to remove a thread is not an opinion.

I'm not looking to impress. I'm on here because I want to have a good time. If I wanted to impress then I would have done something about it in the (nearly) 12 months I have been here.

In fact, yes I do think I'm a great individual. I admit, I think a lot of myself. So sue me. It is a dream of mine to become a published author. If I didn't think I was a great individual then I wouldn't even bother to try and fulfill my dreams. If you want others to think you are good (not necessarily great) then the first step is thinking of yourself as good.

By the time I die, Zelaron will probably be a forgotten memory. No matter how successful it may become, there is a very small chance that Zelaron will be around in 60-odd years. If it still is then it won't matter much to me as I'll be suffering from old age memory loss.

Again with the impressing, geez.

Sorry?!

after all you're the only person queer enough on this message board to do so. Like I said, I have no interest talking to a kid such as yourself. You can keep digging your hole deeper by continuing this fruitless argument, or you could just keep quiet while you're behind.

How nice of you to notice...

I wouldn't say 6 months is new to anywhere. As for new to anything else, why would I think you are? Everyone on this board is over 13 years old.

We have a program which we have to follow now?!

How nice picking a persons post to pieces. You ought to try it sometime, it's quite a good stress relief excercise.

----------

As for the topic...I've already stated my beliefs and cant really add anything to them apart from the fact that I don't believe in any type of afterlife (including reincarnation) as I just cant believe it can happen. I usually look towards science for answers and levae religion to the religious people.

So you think because you make a longer post that makes you a better author? Longer stories aren't always best. The best stories are the ones that contain meaning. I don't know why you continue to argue about the thread closing. Thank you for quoting me, that makes me feel much better.

Admins if you want to go ahead and remove this thread
If you're only going to argue something pointless, then there's no point in arguing at all. I obviously was granting no one permission. A point from your writing: Look at who the quote came from. A member, Junior Member if you like. Not a webmaster giving permission to an admin. It obviously wasn't an order. It was a suggestion to the admins/moderators to remove the thread that had turned sour. I won't even acknowledge that again, because it's been settled, you just keep dipping your hand in and swirling it around.

I don't get stressed, and I don't spend a long time requoting someone trying to find a flaw in an otherwise strong argument.

When you get a book published let me know, I'll order a copy.

For later reference, don't say remove but closed. Only the worst threads are removed.

And no, I don't think that the longer post make me the better author.

You'll be the first I tell if I do get a book published, and I can bet you that you will hate my writing style...

If you want to see what I'm currently doing you can find things on my site (www.theineffablelenny.co.nr) under the My Books section. The two I have worked on most are 03. The Way of the Imp and 08. The Power Pernicious. 14. The Return of the Imp isn't going too badly either. Unfortunately, they're all from the one series. Anything else I'm writing/planning to write isn't actually available for download yet...something I'll have to rectify when I finish changing my site design.

Nnh, don't worry, no-one in their right minds would try and copy my writing things. And anyway, I'm pretty sure that all are password protected so nothing can be changed etc, I've put the little copyright thingy on my site and a notice on the front page...and all have my name on. Not to mention that if someone does try and copy I've got all the originals with dates showing when they were created, last modified etc. Not many people would think of changing their computer clocks to try and pass something off as their own.

Thanks for the idea bro

EDIT: Hey S2 as you are new the this forum let me give you some advice. RARELY are threads closed or removed. I've seen many threads come back to life a few months after they were posted because they made a valid point or held a great discussion inside of them. And like Lenny said, insulting respected members or disrespecting them in a anyway isnt the best way to get respect on this forum.
