To everyone else on the ML (who's been here at least 6 mo or so)...
	You knew it was coming.  As soon as he/she posted that post, you
	knew it was coming....

Macwhatever@AOBiteme.com:

Here's my first RANDOM comment to you:
	PUNCTUATION - Look into it.  People in reality use it.  At least
	people over the age of 6.  Whether or not you exceed this age is
	quite debatable by your posts, however.

> you friggin 

Friggin what?  How can you call a person an adverb?

> i don't think so

No - you don't THINK.  That's your problem.  You post without using your
brain (which I'm going to give you the benifit of the doubt and say you
have one).  Start using it.  Right now.  Because YOU'RE the one who looks
stupid here, not us.

(And the "I'm Right and the World is Wrong" Award goes to...)

> if this is suppose to be a RANMA 1/2 ml,

It isn't supposed to be.  It IS.  There is no questioning this fact.  This
IS the Ranma ML, whether or not you feel it deserves the title or not. 

> pikachu is not ranma

Aaaaand your point is???

> ranma can kick pikachu little electrical asssssss

Aaaaand your point is???

> he sux, dick.

Who?  Ranma or Pikachu?  I mean, you have a right to your opinion, but
we've had some pretty great debates on Ranma sucking.  In fact, I think
the "Ranma is a Scumbag" debate has been one of the most complex ones
we've seen.

> talk about someone who is equal to pikachu thats in RANMA like mousse

Mousse = Pikachu?  I fail to see the parallel here, because Mousse would
certainly whoop your impertinent little ass barehanded, buck naked, and
without eyewear.  Hell, he wouldn't even need Shampoo's motivation.  He'd
just do it because you seem to need a good smack on the jaw to get you
back to reality.

(Now that's an ironic statement...probably the most ironic I've scribed.)

> or happosai not bulbasac and penisaur pokemon is po"gay"mon ranma is a
> wiity comedy

Which either marks it high above your level, or you've just been an ass
for the last few posts, but you're bound to change your ways.  We have yet
to see.  (Like I said, you get the benefit of the doubt here, but not for
long.)

> i got into a few years ago looking at different and new anmime and
> i saw ranma, read the back and it sounded great your talking about me
> talk about purple avenger he does that mess about me thinks and stuff.

Yeah, except purple avenger doesn't actually pretend he's Kuno - he sounds
weird/interesting because he speaks in antiquated terms.  However, you
sound like an idiot.

> It's not fair to be mistreated because you are a newbie   

Fair?  Fair?!  It's not FAIR?!  Let me tell you something -

	Fair is where you ride a carousel and eat cotton candy.  You can
throw a baseball and knock over some milk bottles, sit atop the ferris
wheel with your first true love, and win them a four foot stuffed animal
by hitting ballons with darts.

This ain't a fair.  It's the Ranma ML.  It's reality.  Life ain't fair,
buddy and if you think it will go out of it's way to be fair just for you,
you have some painful times waiting for you throughout your future.

Now let me tell you THIS:

Do you walk into a house where there is a party where you are welcome, but
unknown?  (Open door policy thing, you know.)  Sure you do.  But do you
tell the owner of the house or the gathering coordinator that they're
dumb, and that things should be done as YOU see fit?  

How DARE you.  What on EARTH makes you think you have the right to tell us
what goes and what does not go here in our home?  For almost five years,
this list has been as it is, and quite happily, I might add.  People like
you have come and gone, because they couldn't deal with the fact that they
couldn't have their way.  And you have to gall to tell us blatantly, and
self-righteously, that you know how things should be run here, and you've
barely gotten through the front door?  How DARE you!

Listen to me very carefully.  Right now.  

You are not welcome here as long as continue to assume some sort of
delusional position of authority over us, as if you were some savior.
This isn't ancient Palestine, and you are not a carpenter's son.  The
moment you decide to wake up to reality and see that the Ranma ML is how
it is, whether you like it that way or not, and that your self-righteous
ranting is worthless to us, you will more than welcome to join our
discussions.  TRUE - we don't always discuss Ranma.  We're FRIENDS here.
Most of my friends are fellow musicians and I'll be damned if I'll talk
absolutely nothing but music with them.  And just as with my musician
friends, my Ranma friends here on the list often times discuss things I
don't care for at all.  So what do I do?  Ignore it.  I don't have to
listen.  If it's a private conversation or a possible ... troublemaker, I
WILL say something to keep later and worse confrontations from occuring,
but otherwise I ignore it.  And that's what you need to do.  If you don't
like it, then don't bother dealing with it.  And when someone asks you why
you refuse to participate, you can tell them honestly.  But you weren't
asked. And when you see stuff you like, then participate or lurk.  And the
sooner you get over your "MyWordorNothing" attitude and follow these
guidelines, you'll be welcome here.  We will be HAPPY to have you with us.
Which, when you think on it, nothing you've posted so far has been met
happily.  So we don't have the problem - you do.

And go read the damned FAQ.
