Oi.... I think mars has proven my point for me. He's simply a punk spouting because he thinks it's cool. Where's storch's thread about the tough guys? Or was that Furball's thread?

I think a filter that would change the word in question to "I'm a potty mouth dorkus" would work pretty good. Not to mention make for funny reading.

Another question. What is the reason for the negative attitude towards the horde here on the bbs? At what point does a group become a horde? Is there a cut off line? Once past it you are now officially in a "horde".

Hordes are great when they are opposing each other and fighting each other.

potatods are large hordes that go after undefended bases and don't fight, but rather hide behind the myth of tactics.

potatods are only after their name in lights or the capture of a base and don't care what their impact is on game play and the MA or the community.

archaic, meaning no longer used, used once many hundreds of years ago, perhaps.

A punk is a young misfit.

EDIT: I'm curious if that definition is legit or not. Where did you come upon it?

mars01 · « **Reply #38 on:** September 06, 2006, 02:07:01 PM »

OK the word potatod, used as a noun never existed so I guess since archaic doesn't count neither do made up words.

There goes slap making up his own definitions again LOL

Ok ... then you just called him ... a young male partner of a homosexual.

Mars, give up. That has nothing to do with anything. You're a wannabe misfit, a wannabe rebel. You're trying to mainstream disrespectful and distasteful language as commonplace and "the norm". You are outside the norm in this effort.

Historically when communities found individuals like this they excommunicated them, refusing to support or aid the individual in question. The individual normally died. Take a hint
