The First Epic LTD of TLS forums

[Dashell]

... really? Why do you say that?

 

[Ⓐaron]

I strongly suspect that they're secretly aware they can't win LT debates against people like Ryu

 

[Channy]

If TNC hasn't opened after ACC was released in NA like they said they would to get more "proof" then it'll never open.

Also Quex, you just ruined simsex. THANKS

 

[A]

If it does open, I wouldn't be surprised if it closed down again, as all the Clotis there were JUMPIN AT 'EM LIKE RABIDS NORMALLY DO.


ironic how they say this only when they're being 'victimized.' Does anyone else recall when the forum was dominated by C/A supporters?

Funny, I thought canon was what the writer(s) decided was part of continuity.

No, it's what a single fraction of the fandom decides counts.
That's why the original version of Star Wars Ep IV stands as... oh, wait.

And this. This is what really puzzles me.
a) Why do Clotis need "appeasing"? Has there been an epidemic of Clotis slitting wrists?
b) Like I asked earlier today ... why is any cloti-leaning scene designed to "appease Clotis" or "throw them a bone," but any clerith-leaning scene is designed to reinforce canon, even when it's in an AU? Can the hypocrisy get any more blatant?

It is hard to win against someone who 'enforces Cloti' with the iron fist of persuasive argument, yes. Especially when I employ such dirty tactics as parsimony, narrative comprehension, at least reasonable comprehension of Japanese, and comprehensive examinations of their hypotheses and their consequences.

I mean, six of them against one of me? How are those odds fair?
I'm like Wesley, Inigo, and the giant all rolled into one.

When it was open a few months ago only 2 or 3 of them participated. I don't think there'll be a rush of them to participate if it opens now. Most of them want to enjoy their pairing in peace and not be forced to face the truth.

Really? Maybe I won't even bother then... but Ana said she was waiting to hear from the other admin. Dunno who this other admin is but... I don't think they want to admin that place.

YOU BASTARD

Yeah, no kidding. Going along with what Ali said, the Forum was Clerith dominated and for a long time there were many Cleriths going against one or two Clotis. So then when more Clotis started to debate, there are suddenly too many Clotis and all of the Cleriths that joined are suddenly 'tired of debating' and complaining that the Forums are Cloti dominated? No-one bitched when it was Clerith dominated in debates. They're the ones who suggested that we nominate someone from the Cloti side to be a Mod, and then when we did there was a secret test for actually winning the vote, and the person they actually made as the Cloti Mod is a part of their Forums and is a Clerith supporter too. (Nothing wrong with that, but the point was to have a Cloti Mod. =/)

Anyway... the TNC announcement says it's officially under construction so who knows. I'd think they'd want it to open because of the COLW stuff.

 

[Dashell]

Frankly I say if they want to enjoy their pairing in peace, we should just let them. I mean what is there to debate anymore? It's just going to become insults and shit slinging at this point. ...

unless that's allowed and then it might be kinda fun.

 

[A]

It's their option to want to debate or not. If they don't want to, fine by me, but it's when people start complaining because the forum is dominated by C/T when it's a C/A moderated forum just boggles the mind.

Yeah. CoLW's koibito is pretty daunting, to say the least. I dunno if I'd have the guts to take myself over to the NC.

[Dashell]

I see what you did there.

Don't scare me Rach.

AngelAlex was the most recent one. Of like six.

I'm evil, I know.

Not to be cynical, but we knew we weren't gonna get the position.

Oh, and I meant 'how it that fair... for them?'

What construction does it need?

CHEWTOY!

Maybe if you don't understand the mentality, which is even more mind boggling in its own right.

I know. Incredibly intimidating, Aerith's internal opinion. No fighting IT. It COMPLETELY invalidates a compilation's worth of collected evidence for the other side.

...

[/Sarcasm]

 

[Dashell]

I think a few of them just use the Aerith calling Cloud a koibito to disprove that Aerith still has feelings for Zack or something. And again, it's some other people's views not mine.

actually even I don't know what the fuck I'm talking about anymore.

 

[A]

I really don't understand you.

 

[Dashell]

Then once again, my work is done

Like back when I was 15/16? Yah. I remember there was a thread of Clerith vs. Cloti proof and everything I said was shot down as unromantic and optional (don't even mention the Highwind scene, rly.) and anything vaguely Clerith was taken as canon and wonderful and as far as I recall, you couldn't (at least, a Cloti couldn't) actually object to it without being frowned upon.

 

[Frostwave]

CHEWTOY!

Mmmm. Cleriths are so salty.

 

[Isabella]

Mmmm. Cleriths are so salty.

I'd imagine Clotis are the salty ones. Cleriths probably taste like bubble gum.

 

[A]

Clotis are the bitter tasting ones.

I guess it just goes to show where some people were before AC/C and other compilation titles. Clerith might have had a chance with just FFVII, but when you start questioning what one of the creators said as canon, it's over.

Then you shoulda LET THE FUCKERS FROWN!

Mmmm. Cleriths are so salty.

They're actually vaguely sugary flavorlessness. Some have a good rich champagne to them, but nothing of substance.

Clotis taste like a good filet mignon, actually. Lightly peppered, done between medium rare and medium, and scattered with herbs and other delicious flavorings.
You hardly notice the salt.

Clotis are the bitter tasting ones.

Not bitter at all. Rich, full and flavorfull. I bet you have all the deliciousness of Kobe beef, even.

It might have had a chance, but even then it was a slim one.
But yeah, 'CC Doesn't count, Koi_Bito, etc. etc.'- It's VERY over.

 

[Dashell]

I was actually referring to some of them questioning whether or not Cloud was happy with Tifa when the creators said, "Cloud was happy with Tifa."

It's why I wanted TNC to open up. I can't bring this stuff up to them at CxA, but I do want to talk to them about it. I was mislead once too, so I know how to talk to these people... and I hope none of them are taking offense if they are reading this

Technically, that was after AC and a bit after KHII, I believe. I could be misremembering though.
