Look what the court just did...

[Leinad]

While I agree with the other two decisions (I take Kalwejt's opinion on the Xahar case, and strongly encourage Congress to do something on the matter before the December midterms), the decision in Bacon King vs. SoFE is absurd, and obviously politically motivated (of course, no surprise there--this is what happens when you let Adam put his right-hand-man on the Court).

From my standpoint (and Homleycooking's) any opinions should be considered "campaigning"--as the legendary former SoFE said, it's not a discussion thread.

Now, I can put basically anything in the voting booth, and if it isn't outright attacking the other candidate, or praising my own, it counts. That's [freaking] absurd.

Congress needs to make laws clarifying this, because the Supreme Court--led by a major Labor operative--have ushered in an era of chaos for the sake of stealing the election for Blair.

[Leinad]

The Supreme Court's ruling is the law of the land. The Supreme Court deserves our respect. If you find yourself unable to respect this ruling for the sake of the sanctity of the Court, I ask that you respect this ruling for the sake of Atlasia.

Lovely cliches, but completely irrelevant. Did you even read what I said?

I didn't say the ruling should be overturned, I just disagree with it (apologies for my thoughtcrime), I feel it was done due to partisanship, and I called on Congress to make better laws when it comes to elections, so as to clarify things.

1. Ben Kenobi's views--especially his puzzling stance of blaming Virginia and Siren for apparently every single action the left has taken ever--are not necessarily shared by the Federalist Party or myself.

2. If you don't see it a tad fishy that this decision was made by Adam's right-hand-man and someone who has been inactive (with all due respect to bgwah--no doubt an Atlasian legend--I'm unsure of how much he truly considered this case--I'm willing to be proven wrong, just a hunch) I'm not sure what I can say.

3. I disagree with Dereich and he is no more the Fed spokesman than Ben is.

4. We obviously need reform of the voting laws. I applaud Virginia for her proposed amendment to the Constitution--there's an example of a new player being active, and if we want Atlasia to continue we should welcome that instead of blaming them for problems they literally had no role in causing.

I won't be able to convince capricious kids who lost.

Picture this: the Court decided in favor of Yankee (i.e. upholding long-time SoFE Homelycooking's definition of campaigning)  and, say, Kingpoleon or Truman was voicing displeasure over it. Does anyone believes for one second that Windjammer would speak to one of them with such elitist, "sore winner" scoffing?

[Leinad]

I'm going to try to not engage in this. It's just pissing me off.

[Leinad]

Yes you are a sore loser leinad, deal with it.

Wow. You're supposed to be the referee, but you're celebrating with one team and taunting the other after your call went their way.

Even if the court came to this decision fairly, as they very well may have, the Chief Justice acting like this is highly improper at best.


And let me clarify, everyone: I'm not pissed that the vote didn't go my way, I'm pissed at the conduct of certain members of Labor (including Kingpoleon smearing Yankee), before, during, and now after the election. They ally with radicals and get away with it. They smear people and get away with it. And when I say anything half as bad as what they do they pounce on me.

Maybe Adam's right--this is what Atlasia is, they're just better at it than we are. You be the judge, everyone.

And yes I said I would stop engaging in this. What can I say, I have poor self-control. Oh well!

My dear,
You are accusing me of having intentionnally the rigged the results in the favour of Blair which isn't true and a serious accusation. This is extremely disrespectful. I took the time to explain you it wasn't the case and that the reason I sided against Rpryor is a position I held for quite a long time, well before the election. And you continue to call me out for something that I didn't do. Additionnally, you're accusing me of having made a smear campaign against Yankee which I didn't do as well. I didn't send a single PM about party GOVT operation during the entire campaign.

It is you who should apologize to me. You are willing to treat me like if I'm totally garbage just because you are pissed off by the results. So yes, you are a sore loser, I have no patience with people who treat me and the institution I'm representing like s*it.

I did not accuse you of a smear campaign against Yankee--or anyone. I accused Kingpoleon of seeming to imply that Yankee had rejected a power-sharing agreement, an absurd accusation (although I've learned that he was simply misinformed), and I accuse people who weren't you of smearing our last candidate via PM. As I tried to explain to you then, the reason I included you in the PM I sent was because I wanted to make sure you were all aware of the tactics your party was taking--I guess I failed to explain that I didn't mean to imply that you were behind said tactics. My bad.

I apologize for implying that the court case was decided due to bias. That was a knee-jerk reaction due to frustration with the current state of Atlasia. However I still think we should be allowed to disagree with the ruling (duh), and I still think your partisan tone has been inappropriate for a Justice.

Not to take the high road as a sneaky way to keep people from responding, but I think we should try to move past the bickering. That doesn't help anyone. I made an error in voicing my concerns, even if those concerns themselves are not errors, I now see that. If this thread has caused you (I'm now addressing anyone reading this) a headache as bad as the one it caused me, I am deeply sorry for doing that.
