Norrington Posted January 31, 2007 Author Posted January 31, 2007 LEGO trademark should always appear with a Quote
Governor Mister Phes Posted January 31, 2007 Governor Posted January 31, 2007 No, that's not what I was referring to. I highlighted in bold read what I wanted you to take note of. How could you possibly miss that? Its never LEGOs! Never write that! Its always LEGO!!! But if you want to use the Quote
Norrington Posted January 31, 2007 Author Posted January 31, 2007 JEEZ Mr.Phes, don't get all angry on us... I get it... just take the money and go... Quote
oo7 Posted January 31, 2007 Posted January 31, 2007 Its never LEGOs! Never write that! Its always LEGO!!! Or Lego bricks, Lego pieces, Lego elements, Lego sets, ect. The word Lego describes the noun that succeeds it. But if you want to use the Quote
Governor Mister Phes Posted January 31, 2007 Governor Posted January 31, 2007 Or Lego bricks, Lego pieces, Lego elements, Lego sets, ect. The word Lego describes the noun that succeeds it. And it should always been written in uppercae. X-D Or you could just put an "R" in Parenthesese. The lazy way! Anyone ever heard of a program called Character Map? Its been included with Windows since about 1991. Hmm, you must mean 'hobby' when you say 'toy'. :-D No, in Norrington's case I mean toy. :-D Quote
ZCerberus Posted January 31, 2007 Posted January 31, 2007 No, in Norrington's case I mean toy. :-D Wow and you lectured me for freaking out on a Canadian... Anyhow I do think the Pirates got a little more favortism from the LEGO Quote
Governor Mister Phes Posted January 31, 2007 Governor Posted January 31, 2007 Wow and you lectured me for freaking out on a Canadian... I lectured nobody. I suggested that you and Mr Morse resolve your differences peacefully and objectively, hardly an "improve your behaviour or face consequences" warning, which you probably would have received from the other administrators. Maybe the only REAL heroes are the Islanders!! Wow that makes me sound like a liber nutjob! No, you're thinking outside the box there and that's a good thing! Indigenous cultures were often the victims of European conquest, so does that make the Europeans heroic for decimating them people, or are these peoples heroic for struggling to survive has they had for eons?

oo7 Posted January 31, 2007 Posted January 31, 2007 And it should always been written in uppercae. X-D Nah, the uppercase is not necessary when posting in a forum, its used for other purposes. The lazy way! Anyone ever heard of a program called Character Map? Its been included with Windows since about 1991. Lazy? You are aware the BB code automatically replaces a (R) with a Quote
ZCerberus Posted January 31, 2007 Posted January 31, 2007 I lectured nobody. I suggested that you and Mr Morse resolve your differences peacefully and objectively, hardly an "improve your behaviour or face consequences" warning, which you probably would have received from the other administrators. just saying... No, you're thinking outside the box there and that's a good thing! Indigenous cultures were often the victims of European conquest, so does that make the Europeans heroic for decimating them people, or are these peoples heroic for struggling to survive has they had for eons? Yeah something like that. I knew you would appreciate it. Quote
Governor Mister Phes Posted January 31, 2007 Governor Posted January 31, 2007 just saying... Its part of my role as an administrator to maintain order but I'd rather not to be quite honest. A user reported your discussion because they were concerned where it might head, so I had to act and did so as diplomatically as possible. Quote

A user reported your discussion because they were concerned where it might head, so I had to act and did so as diplomatically as possible. Some one tattled on me? Well I can understand that someone external to the situation might join in and a whole mess of business could have come out of it. I guess I didn't consider it a big deal, but I could see how external pressures could have turned it into one. Anyhow, I just thought the conversation was taking on a less civil tone than I am used to in here, everyone appears to be trashing Norrington which I think is slightly unfair considering that I am not sure I can completely disagree with him... I think he is partially right, there does seem to be a favoritism to the pirates on some level from the LEGO Quote
Capn Frank Posted January 31, 2007 Posted January 31, 2007 Well if the pirates are winning doesn't that make them evil for attacking and invading the Imperial Guards?Historically weren't the Imperial Guards put in place to keep the evil pirates in line? Mr. Phes, What type of pirate wouldn't attack an ITP if it seemed weeker than the pirates' vessel? Then they wouldn't be pirates. :-$ I don't have an opinion of Lego favoring a certain faction. I think us pirates are good guys. X-D Just because we pillage and plunder merchant vessels, torture prisoners grotesquely, get drunk all the time and sleep with prostitutes, don't make us evil. :-P And I'll slit the throat of any land lubber who says otherwise. Arrrrr. j/k Quote
El Bucanero Posted January 31, 2007 Posted January 31, 2007 36 replies in one day... That's quite a lot... Anyways, for me the blue- and redcoats and the Imperial Armada are the good guys. Have a nice day, Mr Tiber Quote
Eurobricks Emperor Bonaparte Posted February 1, 2007 Eurobricks Emperor Posted February 1, 2007 According to my humble opinion: - Pirates: Bad - Imperial Soldiers: Good - Imperial Guards: Good - Imperial Armada: Good - Islanders: Good Quote

X-D Phred Quote
Captain Roger Posted February 2, 2007 Posted February 2, 2007 that thread has no sense(no offence, is my opinion) Pirates are evil, soldiers are "the good duys"....is evident because pirates are always evil...because they are sea bandits Quote
Western Forever Posted March 24, 2007 Posted March 24, 2007 I see it that both sides have their own thoughts of what is right and wrong. In Dungeons and Dragons terms, the alignments would be: Pirates: Chaotic Neutral Armada: Lawful Neutral Islanders: True Neutral The only reason the pirates are portrayed as heroes in magazines, comics etc. is because the theme centers on them. Is the theme called Lego Imperial Armada? No, it's not. Thus, the pirates are in the spotlight. Quote
Cutlass Cole Posted March 29, 2007 Posted March 29, 2007 I think it depends on someone option, Period. The Pirates could be viewed as poor people, ruled by harsh soilders, ( i.e. Revolutionary war *sweet* ) looking for a opertunity than a living heck, or they can be viewed as greedy drunk's and the soilders just maintaining peace, or both! The Islanders, in any case are "Gut", which is German for "Good". I alway's wondered who the cop here was ( Mr. Phes :-|| ). The police here, in my option, overreact sometime's. Quote
Scouty Posted March 29, 2007 Posted March 29, 2007 Oooh! I know a good set up. Pirates: The bad boys of the series. The one where most children want to be. Imperial Factions: The good guys that get beat by the pirates where some children want to be. Islanders: Cannibelistic people who very few children want to be. Mostly, Pirates are the sun of this System. It's named after them( PIRATES SYSTEM ) and somewhat the fact that the pirates get the biggest and most ships. Quote
