Whenever there's idiocy in the air you can be sure Phoenix will come out to play like flies on shit.

My argument is outlined in Post626 (main point in bold) and Post630 - basically it needs to be one rule for all and common cutesy extended to all or 'suffer no fools' and tell it straight up as it is and F' them. Length of time of being a member should not be a measuring stick to how much common cutesy is extended.Originally posted by Vangelovski View PostToby, now that you're back, I suggest you consider your attitude towards the well respected activists on this forum.
That will never happen because I feel I have nothing to apologise for just standing my ground and not continually taking shit from someone for no reason.You may even want to think about apologising to Makedonche.
(see bold point in Post626)
The above said and done the next course of action is to withdraw inter-reaction with the offending people and if in future no maintenance of order is evident then to reconsider my position.I have a feeling though that you will be going on a permanent holiday eventually.
I'm not OziMak (despite popular opinion) to hang around and cop shit forever until I'm thrown out.
Looking at my own situation I can only guess at his motivation may have been caring about the Macedonian name like myself (it's only speculation) but every day I see Macos going about their day and not being a member of anything or posting anywhere and being quite content. Their usual response is, "if the Macos in RoM can't be bothered doing anything about the situation koga mu cadi na glavata sekoj den then why should I be bothered doing anything when I can't even change anything from here (ie the West)". It's almost as pathetic a response as that seen from RoM (very sad but true, kaj sto nema sloga nema boga) but very tempting like drinking bitters (ie the bitter spice drink) instead of not having any drink at all so suggestions of a "permanent holiday" does't faze me.
I watched "Horrible Bosses" last night (I'm not making it up)
( http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1499658/ )
and the Jason Bateman character narrates the story at the beginning. He says his "grandmother came to this country (USA) as a young person with only $20-00 in her pocket. She worked hard and never took crap from anyone. By the time she died she turned that $20-00 dollars into $2000-00, probably because she didn't take crap from anyone. Today I take crap from my boss to try to get ahead."
I think it neatly summarises why people take crap from others.
I don't know you but from your posts I would guess you have either a managerial position or your own small business or if involved with the military then of some rank but not supper high.
I can understand it's easy to mentally stay in 'work mode' outside of work, especially if you're in a 'boys' club' environment at work like the military or shop floor but what I think you and a lot of other people need to remember is this is a volunteer 'job' because people care about Macedonia and not because 'my ass is hanging on the line' and so a totally different standard is expected and tolerated than work.
It may also explain why a site like this with the very high caliber of information it contains has not swelled in active membership numbers in proportion to it's other better qualities while some like Vostarec disappeared after one lick ie when the basics (common cutesy and respect) are missing even at the Salvos/soup kitchen it's possible to 'fire' all your volunteers and be left with doing all the cooking, serving and bussing tables by yourself to the detriment of the patrons (ie Macedonia).Last edited by Brian; 06-02-2012, 03:25 AM.

I think Brian needs to go for good...anybody siding with the 'greeks' is not a Macedonian.

Why is it that you are the only person who holds this view?You deserve the barrage you got for making Macos look bad with your idiot whimpy "makedonche's law" and for making me take sides with Greeks.
Please explain how "I made you take sides with the Greeks" ?
All other comments you have made are a waste of MTO space.
Try to limit your response to the questions at hand.

No, I actually wrote them off-the-cuff today - I don't need to claim I need a week off to come up with a response.Originally posted by EgejskaMakedonia View PostLol @ your last few posts Brian. Something tells me you wrote these on your week off and you're now frantically hitting the ctrl+v buttons to get your arguments in.
I did think about writing them earlier but couldn't justify the time given the low priority they represent and I think I'll just go back to my mainly Saturday/Sunday afternoon schedule like I was doing before I joined the MTO. I'm hitting a busy patch anyway.

Yeah I brought a 'bone-to-pick' and stated it clearly above.Originally posted by EgejskaMakedonia View Post*Rolls out the red carpet*...they say a dog always returns to his owners. Did you bring a bone with you this time Brian...or the usual 'red pills'?
EVERYTHING I have posted from the very start is NOT only ABSOLUTELY factual but ALSO TOTALLY verifiable with links to major mainstream newspapers/websites and yet I am treated like some drugged-out hippie who keeps only mumbling, "I don't know the question, but the answer is aliens".
(it's a great quote by the way.)
Also I am in TOTAL disbelief in the basically 2 groups at the MTO -
1. Don't know and don't wan't to know.
I'm only guessing this is the case because absolutely noone has engaged in the topics I've raised in "Brian's Corner" leading to the Mods questioning/reviewing if the thread should exist given the lack of interest, and the worst part is I'm inclined to agree with them - you may/may not have noticed I tapered off in the last couple of months with the intent of stopping altogether so as not to bore people, yet the read count is pushing 18000 since only November of last year. I really don't know what to do ie stop or not?
eg the Federal Reserve and Royal Bank are screwing the USA and Canada population into poverty and debt servitude JUST because of a law passed allowing them to do so which can be repealed at ANY time so why have USA and Canadian citizens not demanded this law be repealed - do the like being F'ed?
There are many Macedonians living in those two countries and I know some MTO members are from there so why the lack of interest in the topics here - the "don't know, don't wan't to know" or "I'm too pathetically weak to get motivated to protest/write letters to congress/become an activist just like the Macos in RoM whom I love to bash for the same reasons from the safety of my own home and computer"?
2. The active don't tell us, Shoosh!, you're kooky crowd
No matter what proof you bring they actively want to shoot everything you say down with kooky/lay of the drugs/are aliens making you say it? lines. Why are they actively trying to stifle information relevant to all Macedonians?
eg the 'body scanner' machines at USA airports are coming to Australia and other places around the world. The experiences and radiation concerns they have had are alarming and have reduced tourism to the USA substantially. Do you think this will not happen to Australian jobs/businesses, and if you work in the hospitality/restaurant/tourism industry your job/business wont be affected even if you don't believe the health risks to you and your family which on their own should provoke you to get interested.
or
eg the chem-trails and pesticides/GM crops shown to be killing bees (yeah, those posts got a good laugh) - no bees = no pollination = low food = you pay through the nose for basic food = you then starve if it gets bad enough. No let's not be interested in bees, it's kooky/aliens even though Man cannot survive without them.
I really don't get it but then I remind myself it's not my playground so if noone wants to know, Ok, let's shut it down and change and keep bitching about RoM and how pathetic they are - no problem, just say we don't want to know, there's no reason to call me kooky.
The aliens dictated this post.LOL.Last edited by Brian; 06-01-2012, 11:11 PM.

It's laughable the way some people argue to a predictable formula - like painting by numbers - when someone catches you out and nails the point just say they don't make any sense/they're insane/nobody can understand them.
Case in point - in the "Albanisation" thread Tomche Makedonche likes to insult and out of his delusional sense of self-importance expects the insulted to just cop-it quietly. But if those insults are challenged then he likes to create a "count" of the number of times he "made you" respond to his insults as if he now is 'playing you' or something.
In other words let the insult stand and don't respond (ie cop-it) or you are somehow being played and hence an inferior moron for allowing yourself to be played.
Does this sound as logical as 'let's play heads I win, tails you loose'???
Bear the above in mind and consider the following.
Makedonche also likes to insult but if his insults are challenged he prefers to say he was "baiting you" and you are a fool for letting yourself be baited and played.
In other words let the insult stand and don't respond (ie cop-it) or you're being baited and played and hence an inferior moron for allowing yourself to be played.
Does this also sound like 'let's play heads I win, tails you loose'???
Either you are right and the person is a moron for accepting such a game or the REAL REASON they are responding is they just don't accept you BS 'rules of the game' and dismiss it altogether and wont quietly tolerate your BS insults either.
Because you two have almost the same BS method of arguing and logic can I ask if you went to the same BS school of "Idiocracy"???
( "Idiocracy"
It's a funny movie. I'd recommend it to anyone.)
Now getting back to children's painting by numbers - err, I mean arguing to a predictable formula.
When you don't like what someone has said don't defend your point on the merit of the logic of your point (ie stick to talking about the facts of your point) just accuse the other person of having "comprehension" problems and throw out more insults to suit this line - "pea-brain", "empty -head", ect. and somehow that makes your original point absolutely right.
Makedonche Post617
there is no other way/alternate solution (re 'makedonche's law' as above) greece can do on her own so cutting off access to people trying to get in is the only solution.I even counted out all the options and stated what's wrong with them and whyseriously mistaken here...this presumes you have already considered all other options and found them to be useless,
Really? It's easy to spout-out hippie trendy slogans but when it comes to the details of HOW is this 'alternate/friendly/trendy' plan of "makedonche's law" supposed to EXACTLY work there's NO details at all.you are wrong and you are therefore useless
[QUOTE]please explain to me where makedonche's law says no border guards, advocates shooting at people[/QUOTE]people will climb walls and fences or cut through them to get in but in this "makedonce's law" world of the absence of border guards shooting at people
LOL.LOL.LOL.
Look whose got comprehension problems!!!LOL.
I said because of the liberal/hippie/trendy laws that now DO EXIST in the world today in the same vein as the liberal/hippie/trendy limp-wristed dribble in your "makedonche's law" it is NOT possible to just shoot people crossing into your country - imagine the outcry from limp-Dks like you - and I am NOT saying "makedonche's law" "advocates shooting at people" as YOU seem to think.
Get a hair-cut hippie, and while you're at it trim your nose hairs, they're growing back into your head giving you "comprehension problems".
the only choice is to make a different 'wall' with a greater deterrent like minefields.I listed the option and what's wrong with each of them in a previous post AND ALSO said the ONLY other solution would be to help make their countries better so people wont want to come to yours.that is not the only choice...that is the only choice your little pea brain can come up with and agree with voltron in the process...
You deserve the barrage you got for making Macos look bad with your idiot whimpy "makedonche's law" and for making me take sides with Greeks.btw since when do you give a shit about the greeks anyway? - forgot to answer that one!
What's happening with Greece will also happen with RoM if she gets in the EU and when/if that happens you'll be posting against the "we want EQUAL rights" of the Pakies/Afgans/Iraqies ect. trying to take your precious RoM from being a place for Macedonians ie the reason I mentioned the problems with the Albanian in RoM.
Do you naively believe the reffoes will accept any 'scraps' RoM decides to give them or will they kick up a fuss and DEMAND their EQUAL 'RIGHTFUL' share?
Na Re!

Guess what George S., 'weee'rre baaaack' and not as someone else trying to BS our way back in. In fact the following posts are BS exposers.Originally posted by George S. View PostBrian,he'll probably come back as someone else & try & bs his way back.
I bet you do George S., you've consistently shown how much a higher value you place on loyalty over consideration and logic.I totally agree with Makedonche.Last edited by Brian; 06-01-2012, 08:32 PM.

Brian Post609
@Mods
I was even trying to get your attention by addressing it to "@Mods" LOL.And JUST the next post down
I really don't care if you close "Brian's Corner".
...In any event as I suggested at the start of "Brian's Corner"
Wow it's what I been saying from the very start of the thread
you could rename it 'scratch-pad' or whatever where people can extend their off-topic discussions/arguments and not pollute threads.
...but I do think you need an 'off-topic place'. Maybe that's what you can call the thread, "Off-Topic".
Just a suggestion.
United MKD Post610
I think an off-topic thread is a good idea.Instead of starting new threads about random stuff that has nothing to do with Macedonia it can be posted in the off-topic section.
Nothing against you United MKD.Wow! there were rumours but up until now I had no idea how much ignored my posts were.LOL.Originally posted by Risto the Great View PostGood idea UMKD.
Sometimes forums call it a "lounge" or something.
Anyway, have the Mods completed their review?
Have they decided to
a. Delete the thread
b. Keep as is ie with a conspiracy bent ie start a new 'lounge'
c. Rename it as a 'lounge'
Maybe we can take a poll.LOL.
