VeeshanVault

If you had to put together a team of six members from VeeshanVault to go head-to-head against another Board in a flame battle, who would you pick?

Notes:

-group of six must include yourself, even if you don't consider yourself a flamer
-the flame topics would be random (not specific to EQ or anything else)
-focus would be more on flames than trolling but some trolling is permitted
-you'd actually want to win the debate as well as flame so don't forget that as a factor

Here's my picks (with many alternates not mentioned but close)

Jice

-fairly knowledgeable
-seems to research both sides of a debate before responding
-great paragraph structure!
-integrates the personal attacks very well into the flow of the post while making his point

Sylvus

-always calm even while flaming
-good researching skills.
-able to find buried tidbits of info that will help his cause
-picks his spots. In a game, he'd be considered a long charging weapon but with heavy damage

kyoukan

-you've got to have a crazy bitch on your team, you just hope they get hit by "friendly fire" near the end of the battle

miir

-annoyance factor is high
-able to persist with flame battles long after most have moved on
-would be used to mop up any remaining opponents still trying to fire off flames at the end of the battle

Xyun

-combines drugs, foreign knowledge weirdness and borderline anarchistic ideals all into one package
-anti-cliqué-ish so you don't have to worry about him falling into a popularity trap
-looks like Andre Agassi

Alternates:

Sartori - not sure what happend to him. Used to be a big time flamer. Maybe was just specific to EQ.
Xatrei - up and coming flamer. Push the right button and he'll tee-off with a lengthy flamefest.
Furor - had some very entertaining flames in his day

Flame factor not high enough but would be good on a debate team:

Arb - science geek factor is high. I repeat. Science geek factor is high!
Sueven - everything's the topic for a thesis with him!
Voro - fading. Just not the same since he lost the ë

There are many others and I'm sure I'm forgetting a few that I'd plug into the team if the topic was known before the start and it's not always a good thing to be considered a flamer so don't feel left out! I'm sure other people's flame teams will look totally different!

What? No Atokal?

My flame-team

Hesten
Gemily
Sirensa
a_guide
Wonko
pyrella

Kyoukan
Midnight
Jice
Furor
Sylvus


Because I like a certain amount of violence in my intellectual debates... Besides, the other side cant argue straight if theyre busy trying to gnaw through their monitors to get at Midnight.

Damn you Varia Spell my name right.

archeiron and noel can join we go up against a grammar flamer!

You promised a better idea than Xan's inane faction thread, and this is all you could come up with? Fuck! FUCK! At best this is equally lame, and I'm inclined to think that it's even dumber.

Try again.

I'm not here for your entertainment! You just sit in the alternate slot and shut the fuck up!

Not everyone's idea of interesting is debugging a xorg.conf file.

Hah! Not mine either, but this... this is just lame. In fact, "lame" does not do this justice. I believe that in order to adequately capture what utter claptrap your "idea" (such as it is) embodies, a new word must first be created!!

Maybe you two monkeys should get your teams together and FLAME it out?!?

True. Midnyte- KILL!!! Kyoukan, wait till he's distracted then hit him from behind with the rage-o-hol!

I actually thought Winnow's original post was well thought out. Kudos!

I really don't think I have ever seen or ever will see a better flamer than furor. I remember reading some of the shit he posted and literally laughing myself to tears.

Got anything saved? Quotes etc?

I might, i'll have to look. Would be funny to see some of that stuff without digging through their forums.

Heres a nice gem from Furor....

I did not want to ever have to create an account on this shithole but since I saw this gem of a post by Hagbeast aka Livak aka Sara What-the-fuck-ever, I had no choice; my hands are tied. While I'm here, I may as well pinch a loaf in your pool.

So as to remain at maximum efficiency and keep my post count down, I'm gonna first call out all the faggots on this board. You are fucking tools. You know who you are; Yep... The guy that will sit there and hit 'reply' and make 500 posts about pies and then actually say 'EL-O-EL' to his monitor as another one of his witty replies with a picture of a fucking pie and some queer commentary goes up. Fuck you. You're a goddamn degenerate. You also know you say 'EL-O-EL' or 'LAUGH OUT LOUD' while talking to your monitor, admit it you son-of-a-bitch. I hate you and the stupid reply you're going to make in regards to this post (probably with a pie and pie commentary, gg).

Livak.... there is absolutely not a goddamn thing you can do about the posts made here or ANYWHERE in regards to you or your annoying-psycho-GM-Teabagging-Cumpdumpster-Character/Guide. Now I was actually going to make a long drawn out post explaining the law to you, but then I realized, who the fuck am I kidding? Instead, I would like to be added to the ultimatum.

You are the prototypical 'dumb internet bitch,' and I can't stand seeing that shit go unchecked. I can only hope that you stand by your threats and you do sick your GM-Cyber-Toy on me and my guild as you have promised come SF FF! I eagerly anticipate the 5'2" pile of pasty fat shit attempting to 'throw down,' his 'machismo' in mine and my guild's face. I'm sure that will get an AWESOME reaction from the VI Management as well as make an excellent headline/story on my guild website:

"Borderline Retarded Former Taco Bell Cashier Attacks Twenty Five People At San Francisco Geek Festival. Was last seen saying, "I did it for the Hagbeast Cyber Pussae'" It writes itself, really....

And your world? Reality? EL-OH-EL, OH-KAY?

Are people making fun of Xanu and Winnows posts because they don't like the posters or the ideas? Just seems like if someone more "popular" had made the same post it would have had a better reaction

Also my flame would be:

Noel
Truant
Aslanna (I like the Pandas!)
Winnow from 2 years ago

I prefer people who can type a rational argument and don't make posts that take up my entire browser window.

I take great pride in being included in Furor's flame.

To commemorate the moment, my personal favorite:

I am amazed by how many people confuse 'a good flame' with 'being annoying'.

how do you expect to win a flame war when 4 of your 6 people are nob-gobblers?

MY GOD! HOW WILL I EVER DECIPHER YOUR SLIGHT IN THIS OH-SO-SERIOUS OF THREADS?!?!?!

You're not very funny.

You're a riot though.

Awwww! Wanna cuddle?

I lie awake at night worrying about what you think of me.

I don't.

Hey d00ds I think the flame war was supposed to start after everybody picked teams... You're getting ahead of everyone else.

Who wants me?

Who the hell's gonna pick me? I think I'll start now!

You two cobs couldn't burn down your house whilst fiddling with your porchfireplace...errr

And Spang--I'd put 2-1 odds on noel using you as a redi-wipe to clean up the greasespot on the floor, ya puddle-footed bitch. Even though he grew a vagina watching Scrubs...kid's still got it, I think.

I didn't get a single invite?

I guess you all you faggots just want to hang out with your shitcock friends and circle jerk each other over how awesome you are at the Internet.

He's got it like Paris Hilton's got talent!

Apparently, she(Paris) can fuck. What can you do?

Can she fuck without getting herpes?

Spang wrote:Can she fuck without getting herpes?

wtf?

I think fucking without contracting an STD or having an illigitiment child or charged with rape requires more talent!

You can be on Team Happy!

It's always nice to have a few people on a forum that manage to put a "happy" spin on their posts no matter what's going on!

On the bench is
Sartori

I'm a specialty attack dog. If Patrick Stewart, Star Trek, or Frodo/Sam's relationship is mentioned, I go into flame mode. Otherwise, I'm a cuddly puppy.

Dweeble weeb?

I couldn't flame my way out of a paper bag soaked in gasoline. I tried to once but I just felt dirty afterwards. I crawled into the fetal position and cried myself to sleep.

Edit: Oh yeah I'd let these people flame for me any day though:
