I only got to play the first Civ. That was the game that got me into computer games. Period.

Then my buddy introduced me to Command & Conquer on, I think it was the N64 or whatever consol it was on (forever ago) and that blew my mind. "IT'S LIKE CHESS! BUT AT THE SAME TIME!"

Then, in 8th grade we got ahold of a copy of Warcraft 2 and that was it for me. I was an RTS whore groupie. Have been ever since.

I'm sorry. I hear that a lot, actually. Allow me to elaborate, then. :)

There was a typo there. It should say, "I better run, now that you've called in the cavalry and all."

I was referring to your calling my replies "flaming", apparently hoping someone important might notice and do me unimaginable harm.

What I meant was that you called me (and Mesk) pretentious, at which point I called you pretentious back (hey, it's only fair, cos you are at least as much as I am). You couldn't handle that, I think, and what came after that was a series of "tag-you're it" comments... until you called my actions flaming...

...which I thought was weak.

Whoa whoa whoa. I think you and I are having two entirely different conversations here.

But considering I was referring to my own posts as flames which you witlessly tripped over yourself throughout, I must say this is telling me a lot about you and how important you think yourself to be.

Let me help you out here: If I wanted to flag you, I wouldn't bother conspiring a devious plot, weaving subtle messages into a drawn-out thread hoping someone of prominence might notice our squabble and take some sort of unspecified action. I'd much easier simply message Lavs personally and tell him to do you "unimaginable harm." To which he would laugh and call me an idiot. Because this entire ordeal is not as important as you think it is.

Because you're not as important as you think you are.

Hence the communication gap.

"Now see here, sir.  I raise your penis with my own and piss at thee!"

"That be a sorry piss.  Notice how mine is much more clear and copious.  Your yellow hue is soiling the snow."

"What ho!  It is the yellowness that gives my piss an assertive swagger and presence.  Yours marks only the presence of a child's stream!"

"Mayhap o villainous miscreant.  But no one can deny how your pubes interfere with the flow of your piss.  It's as if a woman is tinkling!"

"Fie!  You go too far, sir!"

Bummer.

I could have gone on for days.

Edit:

However, you telling me I'm not as important as I think I am makes me laugh uncontrollably. Really, I mean, it's the "pretentious situation"  all over again a couple of posts further down.

Edit 2:

AA7, get out of the way. I was about to nail this fucker!!! :D

This has nothing to do with useless games anymore.
However this is quite a useless argument.....
Perhaps you both think of this argument as a game.
I'm probably wasting my time here, but
GO GET A ROOM!

Hmmmmm whats this blue box doing here.....

I know. That's because Archangel called me pretentious after I expressed my dislike of Command & Conquer, if memory serves.

Feel free to get this topic back on track. I'm having a great time either way, so don't do it for me. Do it for the children.

To be fair, Mesk is like a lot of my friends which could easily annoy the hell out of anyone at the same time that they would make others fall in love with them in homosexual ways, so I can see how someone could get offended by him. Hell people get offended by his commentary.

But I'd like to think of all this as entertainment.

OK. But you sure you're in the right thread? This is the epic battle between Archangel (the bad) and Legion (the good).

Oh I know, but someone mentioned Mesk, so I figured I'd bring him back into the side lines so we can get this ONE ON ONE NO ITEMS NO TIME LIMIT FINAL DESTINATION match going.
