Because most of the attacks (on both sides) are not unprovoked. So if you'd stay out of it, you would most likely not be attacked very much either. You might still get some attacks out of the blue - we have probably all been on the receiving end of those from time to time. I doubt you are more likely to get those than Starrman.
I remember I made a thread about the 3 stooges asking people to 'make a new episode'.

Some troll said it was Stupid and a couple other users came in and laughed at me. The thread probably lasted 7 posts and I thank the heavens the thread just died.

They were teasing me! Sure I cried, but who wouldn't?

The End.

Any chance we could make revisionism a bannable offence on here? 🙄

A truce doesn't work for the Silent Majority. Don't you see? Your whole clan is predicated on an "us versus them" philosophy. Once that disappears, you lose all your momentum.

Kind of ironic how the clan that supposedly wants to bring peace to the forums, can't survive without conflict.
Us v Them

how many of the TSM were active posters in the forums? How many of those that were active posters went out of their way to deliberately insult anyone? How many of those active posters went into threads created by your clan to tell you's how boring and that your posts are nothing but drivel, so took it upon themselves to post half page recipes and poetry on numerous pages? How many times did people who want to insult RN took it upon their innocent selves to call the whole TSM retards, morons, drivel, hypocrisy etc. etc. Now ask the same questions of your clan. if you can do that objectively, i will commend you for it but i won't hold my breath. i know what to expect.

Because I have seen it to many times when you stop with one you go after someone else next. Make it real easy for you then wouldn't it? I think there needs to be a change in the power structure. It's time for a new political party.
Good point Cash and it is worth mentioning that Cash and I are the only one's left.

2 months ago there were TSM flags flying all over this place. Now, Cash and I are the last of the Mohicans.

If the Carp and others of their ilk want a fight, I say "today is a good day to die."

If they want peace, I say as I've always said, "live and let live."

Well, Starman as you can see by the posts directly under yours you are correct you can't speak for the rest of your clan. And that is why I think you and those of your following are wrong. So what you are basically saying is that so long as the rest can continue. You want me to set back and just take it as it comes in. But, if I respond to one of the ot ...[text shortened]... your aren't asking for a truce you are asking for a surrender. Go back to the drawing board.
I only just picked this up, in doing so I've read to the end of the thread and to be honest, I'm dumbfounded.

I am giving you a serious and sincere offer which applies to both of us and by which both of us will suffer and/or benefit in exactly the same way: an offer which is in the best interests of the site: an offer which stems from the very actions you and RN have been protesting for. I fail to see how you can possibly turn it down if you are of a mind to do something about the state of the forums. As stated before, I would cease to attack any members of your clan and you in return would cease to attack any members of my clan. I am open to the same attacks you are under the conditions of this truce.

Neither of us can speak for the rest of the clan, but I'm offering us both a chance to be bigger men and make a step towards the state of forums you're discussing.

Now that was not very nice, I have only made one comment to any one from your clan and that was simply asking if I may challenge one of your fellow players to a game, I never recieved an answer so I assumed no one in your clan wanted a game. Did I insult you or any innocent bystanders? Please feel free to respond to me now. If you have a problem with RN or Cash or anyone else then feel free to sling insults as you see fit. I have not ever insulted you and will continue to withhold judgement of you until you either respond to this message or PM if you desire to keep our conversations private, in either case I am pleasantly awaiting you response.

Is that a surrender? Good Night.😉

It's an unfortunate consequence of your leader claiming to represent the Silent Majority, who, as he has stated, are too afraid to post in the forums (Thread 51353Thread 51119Thread 50575), due to the bullies. I don't think for a moment RB meant to include you or the vast majority of your clan members. "TSM" I think is shorthand for "The Vocal Minority of the Silent Majority". I may have lazily used this shorthand myself in the past, and if so, apologies.

Have a good one.

Keep it up. TSM is almost eradicated. You've got us reeling. You almost have "YOUR FORUMS" back and then you and the Bully Brigade will be free to abuse every new comer that walks in the door.

Or maybe Russ will just close the sand box first...

You may want to reread races' post. He doesn't want to be included in this crap, so why do you pretend you are speaking for him, even after what he just posted?

So, that's like 60 member potential, times countless private happy threads to read.

Yet, still, the desire to hang out here...go figure.
