Yes, we were dealing with a paragon of pleasantness.

40/10, btw. We’re STILL biting your bait. Bravo, friend.
I could point you to my facebook which has pics of me in my military uniform, but knowing that you are the type of person who would call my job to get me fired, I would rather not. So you want a damn that you don’t believe me? I got a damn right here… I’m not going to give you a damn.
You claim that using two hands is less efficient in terms of leverage then one hand, daggers were never meant to be used with both hands, that is why the blades and hilts are so short. Look at any 2-handed weapon in history, long hilts. Or swords which were used for half-swording, long blades that allowed the knight to grip the blade and slam it down alongside the hand which grips the blade. Do I honestly need to explain this to you?
I am starting to think YOU are lieing about your so-called fencing career.
It really is… for me.
I mean, I am biting the bait considering you are just trolls who don’t contribute anything to the discussion… well you and Grandblade, at least Akiyass as wrong as she is, tries to throw things that have stuff to do with the debate and argument at hand. You add nothing, you are literally just spamming and trolling.
Which is why I keep reporting dumb posts like this.
Nothing is done about it. I wonder why that is?
Oh, right.
Has more to do with the argument at hand then anything you added. Just saying. So you think that was dumb? I got news for you: There is a mirror in your bathroom, I suggest you use it.
And you wonder why you reporting me isn’t doing anything. I’ve yet to personally attack you. Just calling an obvious troll obvious.
The hypocrisy is strong with this one. You claim that me pointing out how stupid it sounds that you guys are saying untrained soldiers with improvised weapons are a threat to trained soldiers who are heavily armored and heavily armed. Because you know you are wrong. So instead of actually arguing against it you go with the easier:
Look at me atop my little soapbox, I am so superior I don’t need to address valid arguments, I am immediately correct, and any argument brought up is obviously a troll, I am so smart! <-Zaltaan logic.
Threads like this leave me conflicted.
Do I miss the Ignore function, because now I actually have to sit through the mental gymnastics, and hare-brained justifications of Team Red posters?
Or am I secretly glad the Ignore function is gone, because I would have otherwise have missed half this thread, and it’s a bit oddly entertaining?
Come back if you have any arguments, otherwise, reported for spamming or trolling, not sure which. I swear, Hahahaha has luck at least she deals with intelligent Alliance posters while I am left with the obvious trolls who have no arguments, use fallacies or in general have no clue what they are talking about.
I’m just going to keep doing this without reporting you. You’re just making yourself look worse. I don’t even have to try
its funny you bring this up. If you look at my post history, i usually don’t engage in this stupidity. You’ve just brought something out in me. You ignore logic, personally attack people, and then claim you’re the victim.
As I said, I tip my hat to you!
Ah, an Ebay Warrior. Even worse.
Yeah, good call lol.
The number of hands does not equal power. Dagger techniques laid out by medieval weapon masters like Johannes Liechtenauer, Andres Lignizer, and Fiore Dei Liberi described using daggers in a reverse grip (Ice pick grip). stabbing downward with the blade to increase thrust and penetrative force.
These techniqus were not reserved for the combat elite either. In fact, the Baselard Dagger was the most common weapon among civilians in the 14th century.
Says the person who supports a person that uses false arguments to justify the murder of civilians that I could just as easily flip to justify the murder of the civilians in Teldrassil. But I guess you lack any sort of self-awareness. Tip your fedora as much as you want.
I find it funny how you state multiple things and everytime I ask for a source, you have yet to actually bring me one, where I have posted multiple citations for my points. Ranging from the violent and unpredictable nature of molten giants, to the fact that medieval armor is not as easy to penetrate as you make it out to be.
I know. So as said, don’t give a damn, believe what you will, ‘FENCING PROFFESSIONAL’ or whatever you said you were, yeah right.
LOL, when?
Show me a historical, scholarly source that Half-swording is a superior method for armor piercing than using a dagger… You have not cited one single source. Where I sighted 3 historical battle masters. Look them up, review their manuals, and see that I am right.
Go through my posts, I refuse to resend it because you are obviously legally blind.
Civilians who were hostile and attacked us.
As you guys are fond of saying ‘it’s war, get over it.’ It’s not our fault they decided to attack fully armored and armed soldiers with cooking utensils instead of doing the smart thing and just hiding. That was just stupid.
Uh huh…
Name the 5 basic Longsword stances developed by Peter Von Danzig and Fiore Dei Liberi, and translate the named to English.
Since you are such an expert on medieval combat, this should be easy.
Fedora’s are ugly. Can’t you see? I’m wearing a magic floating halo.
And nah, I don’t lack self awareness. Collateral damage happened. 100%. And i already told you waaaay up in the 500’s that its wrong that we killed civilians. And the dark irons have always been “morally gray.” I’ve complained about that before, see my several posts about how us enslaving fire elementals is something we complained about garrosh doing at northwatch.
But us fighting civilians that are attacking us with a freaking bronosaurus’s is a lot different than burning a tree down that houses literally hundreds of thousands of people. We didn’t burn the city down either. Literally nothing about Dazar’alor is different than it was, except for your leader.
You trying to equate the two is laughable, and it’s been laughable since the beginning.
Ask Akiyass… I’m one of the biggest horde apologists on the story forums, but when you’re wrong, you’re wrong, Goshy.
I love people like you who obviously have not read this thread at all. Let me dumb it down for you:
I support Teldrassil, Theramore AND Dazar’alor.
I understand if you think all three of those were bad.
What I don’t understand or support is you guys claiming murdering civilians is bad, but then turning around and trying to use justifications to the murder of civilians.
Hypocrisy is what I am arguing against.
Ox, Plow, Fool, From the Roof and Near Ward. Anything else? So hard to look up on the internet, I could be lieing, you could be lieing, see what happens when you throw that kind of idiocy around.
Then I have no problem with you. I never argued that Dazar’alor was worse, I am arguing that if something is bad once, it is always bad, and that ‘You did it worse!’ is not a valid excuse.
The only argument that we probably disagree on is that I believe that it COULD have been worse if the Horde had not stopped the Alliance and pushed them out of Dazar’alor.
then, uh…
What the hell were we arguing about then? And why did you think you need to be so hostile to people with the very first post? This isn’t general chat… we’re usually much more laid back here.
