Yeah, they just locked that Politics thread. The Adm.s are mad, if Kazan posts something like he has been, maybe we should just wait till the Adm. get him.

Sarnie - made Arcadia extensions, capship turret upgrades, FSU Head (now kinda dead), and he was supposed to FRED for US, I think

Styxx is the model man! Also, the max -> Pof code is nice, and'll be nicer if he fixes it.

Shrike - Modelled for MT, and does the occasional thing here and there for some other camps, I think. He's very inactive.

Windrunner - lazy bugger

Icefire - BWO

Thundra Kalafri - Lazy Bugger

Setekh - Owes art to ST:r, and that's geberally it

Cobalt Star - Gonez0rs

LoneStar (?) - Beats me

Maeg - The one guy I like there.(Besides Styxx...) (Sarnie is too condescending. I think that becuse he knows something kinda personal about me, he treats me differently... Even if he doesn't do it intentionally. I'll have my revenge, though.) And I hear he models... or something.

And don't even get me started on the annoying f*ckers who b**ch about everything being not to their liking, but don't do anything at all.

GAH!

This is infuriating. Here is the latest exchange from the National Sales Tax thread, in case HLP goes down again...
Kazan: there is NO possible way to make a sale tax "fair", they are strictly regressive --- look at the math is just did*

Goober5000: To be honest that looks like a lot of sleight-of-hand, but it's something I hadn't seen before. Can you link to any articles about it?

Kazan: how does the math look like sleight-of-hand? i laid out all the calculations for you?

any economics book on tax policy should have this all laid out, but i don't have any textbook names right now

Goober5000: Lots of math is sleight-of-hand. Mark Twain said, "There are lies, damn lies, and statistics." I'd want to see a textbook or an economics paper explaining this.

And incidentally, this wasn't in my economics textbook in any of the three ECO courses I took.

Kazan: imagine that - tax theory not being in a CEO class ::roll:

it's pretty simply bro - no sleight-of-hand there, and the fact you're claiming that is grasping at straws

Goober5000: I'm not grasping at straws, Kazan. I'm asking an honest question, and I deliberately worded my posts so as to come off the least accusatory as possible. I've studied a fair bit of economics and seen none of what you're saying. Forgive me if I don't believe you without a bit more proof. ::roll:
Even when someone tries to have a civil debate, he starts attacking them. :mad:

I wonder how long it would take you to get banned, if you started a Kazan is a Idiot Thread. :razz:

With the mood the admins are in, it'd probably take about a minute for you to not only be banned, but IP perma-banned.

Thanks to GameSpy, I'm on a proxy, so if they IP banned me, they'd cut a chunk of the HLP denizens out too. :p

Make 'em relevant at least - if we're posting lemurs, only post lemurs.

Aldo, save it for HLP, please.

Whoever posted that picture of Bart Simpson 10 or so pages back, dead on. He's still living up to it...
