NS vs II crosspost.

This is actually a cross-post thread for my thread on NationStates forum vs the International Incidents forum. It is also about the possibility of merging the two. I do not usually cross-post, but as this also concerns you guys it seems a bit silly not to link you to it.

Thanks for linking to something that basically panned out to be an insult to all the good II role-players.

*Sigh*

Now I see why a lot of people I talk to see the NS crowd as arrogant.

Why do I get the feeling that Knootoss used Sephrioth and (Early) Hataria as examples for II?

Also, why post what is basically a thread bashing II IN II!? Basically, this is just Flame-Baiting.

Flamebait? Huh?
Actually, read the thread. I was giving two APPROACHES to RP. One I see as dominant in NS, the other as dominant in II. That does not mean that all II-ers have the clan-based approach to RPing nor does it mean the reverse. Furthermore, this was hardly meant as an insult. The two approaches to RPing are just different. And I did freely say I have an "NS bias" with regards to merger - but it was never meant as an insult.

Still, people making really short posts shouting "OMFG flamebait ARROGANT NSERS" instead of, say, presenting a rational argument in the relevant thread kinda proves my point. <_<

So trolling proves your point?

I'm confused here.

If that isn't a blatant insult to II'ers, I don't know what is.

"OMFG flamebait ARROGANT NSERS"

And this apparent translation of my post proves the point of basically every IIer who believes NSers to be, well, arrogant.

Uhm... I do not see where the concept of 'trolling' comes in when I try to explain something. Anyway, you're probably not going to listen whatever I tell you so I will not bother then.

As I said, read the thing in context.

Thank you. :)

Ah, the rules of arrogance. Nobody will notice you pretending you're better than them if you just walk away.
