I sure hope casting petty insults at me makes you feel better, scooter, the least it will do is get this thread locked so you can get back to holding your kin together.
Ahhhhh.....We're falling apart! Arrgg! The horror! The inhumanity! The complete line of BS from Namaste leadership! Say it isn't so Liffey! What will I do? Where will I go? Is there no place safe from the doom of our inevitable demise?!?
Lmfao, that was completely inaccurate and absolute rubbish!
Congratulations for snowballing jealousy?
./golfclap in general?
"for whatever reason" we left... >implying there was only one.
I wouldn't expect an accurate representation of any past dealings being portrayed by you considering you were the least active member (oh no, wait, officer, status, I forgot.. it means EVERYTHING) in Vengeance for the entire time I was in the kinship.
"for whatever reason" we left... >implying there was only one.
Pardon my lack of commas, it was meant to read not to question why you left, that's plenty complex and multi-faceted, but rather to question the reason this drama started after you all arrived.
You're my favorite type of troll Sam, the type with a high school diploma (maybe?) who likes to talk over people as if he is in possession of some knowledge and vocabulary that is beyond the comprehension of us mere mortals who weren't smart enough to grow up and cut down trees down for a living.
Read it however you like but the point of this whole thing, which you've already yawned off, was not to pick a fight with you, but to fire back at some underhanded, passive-aggressive bull**** from a kin who hasn't earned the station they're trying to claim yet.
People of genuine intellectual superiority need not attempt to prove it. The fact you actually tried to discuss or compare such mindless drivel says more than any mere words you typed to anyone with half a grasp of what's going on here.
D. Representation - As a member of Namaste, your words and actions in the LOTRO community represent all of us. Verbal abuse or harassment toward anyone (members or non) will NOT be tolerated and is grounds for immediate dismissal from the kinship. This includes displaying prejudice towards another player's race, religion, sex, or nationality. Do not intentionally cause undue strife to another player (grief). This applies to PvMP as well as emotes in populated areas. http://www.namaste.dkpsystem.com/dynpage.php?id=33

Kisses and Hugs.
Uh oh....Somebody's running out of big words and witty comebacks.
Remember Namaste, the trash needs to go out before 9AM (although I know how fond you are of keeping it). Be sure to give your Aussies soft food 3 times a day and keep their diapers checked at regular intervals. Try and avoid them from falling down too much, although its debatable as to how much more they can hurt themselves.
While the other 2 have relevance this has none at all. Try reading the thread, for a start. Then you can move onto reading what is written there and keeping it in context.
I had no idea this was in the PvMP forums, or that this was creepside, am I bashing a group? (specifically meaning a group of creeps not necessarily bound by the same tribe tags playing together at that time.. remember to keep it in context.)

Am I bashing a tribe?
Next please...
that was quoted with the assumption that you would extend the "rules" that you set for your tribe to the rest of the game and lotro community

If you took the time to read the complete tribe guidelines you'd see that I talk with each person that applies on ventrilo so that I can discuss all these matters, for the public to know right now I do not control or assume authority over my Tribe member's actions when they are not on creepside, there they abide by their kinship rules.

I'm really surprised there was no edit to this when they absorbed you Sam... Don't tell me they don't know about the harassment and ultimatums you delivered before leaving Vengeance
It's a pity some of your members still talk smack about the Black Blade...
Is that relevant enough for you? Or can we say you "stir the pot" in general and call it good?
Yes, I know you're feeding off this, but that in itself should raise a few of your kin mates' eyebrows... no? I just wanted to say hi and reminisce. You remember that one time, when you were threatened by me, and got me kicked out of kin for irreconcilable differences? Fun times...
Lmfao, that was completely inaccurate and absolute rubbish!

Because a) I am in fact this big of a dork, and b) because it seemed like you were elevating again when suggesting you were above doing such things as bragging about intellect (which I'd like to point out I never mentioned my own), I computed the reading level on these two statements.
Before my quip -8th grade reading level.
After my quip - 12 grade reading level.
Looks like someone has something to prove after all.

Large wall of text, the only thing I see worthy of public reply is The BB smack talk.. unfortunately I cannot be online 24/7 and I don't read every tell all my tribe members send everyone else, though nothing has happened on my watch.
It seems you're trying to insinuate some kind of unnecessary rivalry to me, though I could be wrong. Since joining my tribe everyone has followed the rules.

I've seen Tae doing some pretty rebellious things while your not there btw.
On noes the drama. Oh no ppl in video games make me so mad. But seriously I hope everyone enjoyed the video I made that Dawlin linked I know madhy did.
Hey guys I just want to say I popped a few xxl bags of popcorn. Now let's sit back and watch
O hey look we have doritos too, can't get much better then that!
- don't hate the Bruno, I'm just here to watch (No drama for me).

We're doing just fine, thanks. Oh, and as far as insulting you... yeah, it kinda does make me feel better. It's akin to kicking a puppy with three legs and one eye, but it's still pretty fun.

The 6-man LT was an accomplishment, yes, and I gave (and still give) my props. However, you seem to think that we were in some kind of competition for it. We weren't.
Picture this: two children are playing in the park. One of them takes off running in a random direction for no apparent reason, and once they're 20 feet apart, he turns and yells to the other, "Ha! I win! I win! You lose! I'm better!"
There is no competition between Vengeance and Namaste, despite what you think.

Threatened? Again, that would require you to have done something noteworthy. You haven't, and I'm not threatened by a puppy with three legs.
You have done nothing noteworthy as a kin, and have one single server first in the 6-man LT HM. At least my kinship had the nuts to give you congrats for it. We didn't organize a big "f*** you" raid, and we didn't need to make some silly video. Who, exactly, feels threatened now?

Hey, something we can agree on. It's too bad that the rest of your Kinship (and it's leadership) doesn't feel the same way; in fact, they felt like attacking us rather than congratulating us on the accomplishment (you know, like we did with you...).
Either way, I'm done beating on the puppy with three legs. If you have something else to say, go right ahead - I'm done giving Namaste any sort of recognition of any kind.

Reason: i cun spel gud
With as much pissing about in this thread, I decided to do a scientific experiment.
Using all the collected urine I conclude that:
5 of you are pregnant (congrats to you!)
4 are suffering from advanced PMS (my condolences)
3 of you are entering early onset menopause (trading blinding flashes for hot flashes)
2 of you need to get your colons screened (take it with dignity boys!)
1 of you is the father (run for your life!)
That is all!

I'm glad to hear you are good and well, and still capable of slander I see. It sure would be a shame if you were bested by a three legged puppy, though I am still having trouble deciphering whether I am the puppy or Namaste is.

The usual trolls in your kin seemed to believe that we were in some sort of competition, and that downing TBO HM was adding inches to their ****s.
Picture this: two kids are in the same school (oh we'll say Nick and Vinny). Nick gets a gold star in class, and starts bragging about it. Vinny congratulates him, but then at recess takes off running in a random direction for no apparent reason, and once they're 20 feet appart, he turns and yells to Nick, "Ha! I win! I'm still better than you!". Nick turns to Vinny and yells back, "Nuh uh! The finish line is over here!" and does a little dance. Vinny, who prides himself in maturity, takes it seriously and ZOMGWTFNERDRAGES.

Hmmmmm... contradiction... I seem to recall hearing that puppy thing somwhere before to...
On a side note, we have 3 cores doing BG HM full clears weekly, you have... one... sorta?

All "f*** you"s aside, I thought it was pretty funny, but I guess sense of humor is not a requirement for joining Vengeance. Did you even watch the video?

I'm glad we can be civil about it from here on out...
But...

Hot dang, three times with the three legged puppy! Do I/we get one of those wheelie things? or will you at least give me/us some more members to use as some sort of peg leg? hold up, we/I have one eye to, so we should have a patch. That'll make us alot like a pirate puppy, I'd feel threatend by a pirate puppy to I guess. I wonder, will you even remmember my/our face/s next time you kick me/us?

Dawlin, you just don't get it - though, you really never have. Arguing with you is like bashing my head in to a wall -- except that bloodying my forehead is probably more productive and far less painful.
I would love it if things were all good here, but it's clear the status quo is to continue to hate. Your kin chose to bring the fight, and we're happy to reciprocate.

Where, exactly, are you going with this? Somehow I think that no matter what I say, you'll just go ahead and continue to think whatever it is you want to think, rather than deal with the facts staring you in the face.
You're welcome to continue to speculate, but I'll go ahead and correct you one more time: We have 19 active members, all of which have 5 of 6 pieces of BG gear. We're running it for rare drops at this point, and to finish off sets. We clear it just fine, thanks.
Congrats on having 3 raiding groups, though. Vengeance never has -- and never will have -- enough members to do that many runs. We're a small Kin, and we always will be -- however, you seem to think that having more people = better. Now you're just grasping at straws. Vengeance has never had more than 22 or 23 members. Ever.
... and that's it. I really don't have much more to say to you or your Kin, and I'll just bow out of the discussion altogether. I'm sure we'll see each other in the trenches at some point.

It's Valentine's Day, you guys. I got a bouquet of cookies earlier in the mail which signifies that Namaste and Vengeance can coexist in peace and love (and chocolate).
Hunter**Lore-Master**Minstrel
Hard Mode doesn't just have to be Turbine's invention.
Have you even watched the video yet? You guys are way too sensitive, lol. Go and watch our video posted somewhere in this thread and tell me that thing is not funny - Just saying.
On a more serious note I would say:
Every time you or anyone else puts a thread on the forums you can expect someone saying nice things and others saying bad things, that's the nature of the beast, and I for one love it O.- The only reason why you'd make the thread of BO HM is because you wanted to brag and show people that you were still alive and kicking.
If you want to brag, then go to the forums and don't pretend you had other intentions. If you want respect, then go and get that from your kin members, because that's all that matters.
This is what this Jagger Jack kill is all about, A parody about how people like to pretend they don't want to brag when in fact they are doing the opposite. Many kinships in all servers do the same thing, they make threads about their accomplishments to get more fame, But very few kinships try to use the forums to gain respect and validation.
Namaste Uses the forums to show that we are alive and kicking as well. But we know and understand that every thread give us also controversy and criticism. When in doubt about our performance as a Kinship we always go to our members for validation and respect, not to the forums.
In a nuttshell: Use the forums to show that you're alive and kicking, brag about your accomplishments and seek momentum to make more success. If what you want is respect then avoid the forums, and go to your kinnies
Thanks for the cookies Ceru! How did you know chocolate chip was my favorite? <3
On a serious note, it's wrong to think all the members of Namaste hate and are out to get Vengeace and the same can be said I'm sure for others in Vengeance. And I also don't think that having 3 core raids is something to brag about. All it means is we have more people and that isn't always a good thing.
The reason this thread was posted was not that you downed BO HM, to which I say congrats! But the responces your members made in GLFF, which were nothing short of lawl. If you can't take it, don't dish it out.
