Popular Post D-38 Boss Posted July 3, 2014 Popular Post Report Share Posted July 3, 2014 I'm closing in on my two year anniversary on this site. When I joined, I was one of those youthful members who believed this was 343's official site. Brilliant members informed me it was not, but they also, through their actions and demeanor, proved to me it was something better. Better people, better discussion, more fun. Being a member of this site has been one of the better things I've experienced in recent years. Obviously, it's had it's ups and downs, Good members leaving, turmoil among members, spam-bots infiltrating our midst. But through it all I've held my tongue. I've sat idly by while an unbearably terrible thing happened. Nearly every time I opened the page, I was struck by this blatant infraction. How could they allow it to happen so? Not only to disregard it, but to not even mention it? Appalling to say the least. So how may I go about this? I've wondered this myself, these past few months. And finally, it came upon me. Others must have said this, and been thus silenced, never to be seen on the site again. Injustice is what it is, and I'll stand for it no longer. We sit silently and watch the world around us. This has taken a lifetime to learn. It seems only the old members are able to sit next to one another and not say anything and still feel content. The young, brash and impatient members, must always break the silence. It is a waste, for silence is pure. Silence is holy. It draws people together because only those who are comfortable with each other can sit without speaking. This is the great paradox. This is what they'd like us to believe. And I say, Nay. Silence shall not be my choice. I choose Freedom. I choose speech. In the words of RSR; "Verbosity is not a crime". Thusly, I speak my mind, and let my piece be said and known by all, Greenie, Trusted, and Dedicated. Some of you may say I'm digressing, avoiding the point, wasting time. But an announcement of this magnitude requires fanfare, a speech worthy of the site wide chaos that my announcement will cause. Some of you are content to sit and watch and accept. But not me. I will speak. I will protest... I. Will. Rebel. Maybe one or two of you may see this before I am silenced, but none the less, if my message is heard, and carried on, it was worth it. And finally, the time has arrived. I must say it. I.... Don't like the color blue that much. 13 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I_Make_Big_Boom Posted July 3, 2014 Report Share Posted July 3, 2014 I try to break the silence whenever I can. Sometimes though there is probably 4+ members in the Shoutbox with silence going on 10+ minutes, and I/or someone else have to go in there to break the ice... I don't care what the conversation is about, I just randomly go in, and start saying things. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Winry Rockbell Posted July 4, 2014 Report Share Posted July 4, 2014 Lol... this may honestly be my favorite post ever. I read this whole thing thinking i was missing some injustice and i was going to finally be in the loop; however, i was completely wrong and i love it. Blue is a good color, but pink and purple are better! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Surveillance Posted July 5, 2014 Report Share Posted July 5, 2014 Those who rebel will be silenced by the will of the people. The Workers' Paradise is without state, without disturbance, without oppression. One man with a gun can control 100 without one. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
