Originally posted by NordlysI don't understand the point of the clan.
What's special about the Silent Majority is that it was founded as a movement against certain clans and people (as the title of this thread so nicely demonstrates). I think it may be unique in that respect. That's also a reason why I would never want to join, even if I were allowed to. But I don't blame the members for that; some probably don't even know the full story.
If I have two enemies - the PFC and the JDs - and if the PFC is the JDs' enemy, and if the JDs are the PFC's enemy - then, by Red Knight's logic, both the PFC and the JDs are my friend.
So surely I should try to join one, or both, of them?
Originally posted by NordlysAs you, suspect I can not really comment on the past. I guess I am guilty by association. I will miss the opportunity to get to know some players. If you want to talk about things other then my clan, I will only be a post or message away.

Originally posted by IM14u2NVI have nothing against you personally, and as I said, I don't blame the members of the Silent Majority for the agenda of their leader. I don't judge people by their clan association.

Lawrie McMenamie's enema is my friend.
Confirming that I WAS RIGHT!
EDIT: McMenamie's enemy is John F Kennedy. I think you know what I'm saying, but I can't say any more...

And, in any event, it is hard for you to talk about the PFC as an enemy since you are in the PFC.
In fact, what's really interesting is that almost everyone in this thread in the PFC, Guttersnipes, or both!
Originally posted by dottewellIt was just an attention getter.
Oh, okay. I was misled by the thread title, which I wrongly assumed meant something.
It was a reference to the current Donkey vs. Carp war.
One of your Carp-mates started a thread about it in the Clan forum, perhaps you've senn it.
BTW, the Carp leader suggested using the Silent Majority as an intermediary to facilitate negotiations in that on-going fight.
Originally posted by dottewellI think we've been down this road before = trying to fix problems with your logic.
That doesn't really address the logical problem.
However, I think in your own rudimentary way, you may have seized on an important point here. The PFC and the JD are both our enemies and therefore both are our friends.
This may be one of the keys to the Silent Majority. When you understand this, you'll understand us.
We are who we are.
Peace.
