The most populous letter by Forum was S, while U was the least populus letter with AT MINIMUM 1 USER
There is no users with the letter Q in their name that have publically posted
There are 6 users with a Number in their name that have posted on the forum
The stat that shocked me was the lack of N usernames and the activity on the site
Wasn't surprised by the S. S is the most common used vowel and it had the most users using it
im really bored

This is the failure of the UN. They aren't doing any better. We only go into conflict when the US is in risk of losing their lives. It is selfish, but frankily the US doesn't want to go to war when American lives are at riskMyanmar is practicing ethnic cleansing. Saudi Arabia is literally wiping out Yemen's citizens and murdering Shi'a activists. Turkey is attacking and jailing people who oppose their government. Venezuela uses force on protestors. The human rights situation in all of Africa is terrible. These are all nations which we are much stronger than militarily. Why not invade them? (https://www.cnbc.com/2018/02/23/amnesty-ten-global-hotspots-for-major-human-rights-violations-in-2017.html, https://www.amnesty.org/en/latest/news/2019/02/10-things-you-need-to-know-about-venezuelas-human-rights-crisis/)
But like I said, U.N. peacekeeping is generally successful. U.S. peacekeeping is hardly better. Peacekeeping isn't exactly easy you know.
Like I said above it's not the U.S.'s job.
If the UN won't do anything and backs away, they want a hegemon to take control and they'll support them. Saddam Hussein was evil and was not going down unless a foreign intervention occured

You still haven't explained to me why the U.S. has to mediate every nation with bad governance. The world CAN'T BE PERFECT, and we kill tons of people by trying to mediate these conflicts in the first place. Also, like we see in South America, we often install pro-American dictatorships rather than genuine democracies (which is a smart power move because an imposed democracy will always be seen as a foreign import and will never have popular support). If the U.N. has to get it's shit together, than it's the U.N.'s job to do so, not the U.S's.
I never said that we should be this global hegemon. I said in some cases in the world we need to act upon the people that are there. We haven't gone and invaded North Korea for its abuse of their population. We haven't gone into China and help the tortured Muslims. We only go into these when we can and have the resources to do so. And if the UN can not get their shit together for helping the world, so we need other countries to do so. While I agree it is a waste, there is no other option since countries in the UN like Russia and China don't contribute funds or people to help these places, and instead focus on building this global hegemon to take out the US
Also you've shown one example of a U.N. peacekeeping failure; peacekeeping has flaws of course, but it is shown to have generally positive effects (http://politicalviolenceataglance.org/2015/09/24/enough-with-the-pessimism-about-peacekeeping/).
This flaw cost millions of people their lives, the 4th most deadly, behind the Nazi German Regimes, Cambodian, and Soviets. The UN failure led to 20% of the Rwandan population dying
Don't buy your stuff on the U.N. and Iraq, I'd like to see a source please? I'm not unwilling to believe it.
I just want to re-iterate; the Iraq War was complete bullshit. The invasion of Iraq had all different sorts of dumbass neo-conservative justifications; the government had an agenda. They were already planning to invade Iraq before the WMD thing (https://www.theatlantic.com/politics/archive/2015/05/the-right-and-wrong-questions-about-the-iraq-war/393497/),and the WMD thing and the terrorist associations things were both bullshit per the U.N. evidence. (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rationale_for_the_Iraq_War). 100% power move.
Again, Saddam Hussein was an evil person who needed to be stopped along with his harmful regime. Once he was taken out, the war should have been over. Instead we stood there and did absolutely nothing but destroy. The justification at first was OK, but after SH was killed, it was not needed for the extra war
We could debate this if you want.

Except those who keep posting here.
I can not comment on this
Disagreeing that I like a post is lunacy. I'm not saying the posts are great, I'm saying I like them. How can you disagree with what I like?\
Because I don't like it, or it is not good
And you're a mod?
Not on DART
Which would mean something if I had said what type of mod you were.
It still does mean something. I follow my own sets of rules and regulation from Discord too and obey those
Lol!! I'm so relieved.
Thought this was funny. Had a laugh
None of them have ever told me anything as silly as "disagreeing" with a personal taste. Other than you having a different taste, what could "disagreeing" mean? Nothing.
Because they don't want to tell you
And if you personally like something else, how does that concern me?
It shouldn't. Hence why this argument is useless
And you're a mod?
Not on DART, for Discord, which I explained

@ethang5
And your harrassment case with RM is simply untrue. None of us were insulting or slandering each other...
Response 1: Never said I was the best lol but just thought it'd be funny to post but ofc. And his list is nothing when he puts Dr.F, the king spammer that spammed 3k posts and was banned for spamming as a "must read member" then I take the list with a grain of salt. No offense to SirAnon but he looked @ one post of his and put him on a list. SirAnon is indeed that, but he is misguided.
No insult here. Responding to him about his list he made and about this whole convo
Response 2: Thank you
Is this an insult or slander? Hmmmm
Response 3: I like people's post and I know I have liked your points. Usually I respond with a "true and correct"I don't care how I won, I noticed the stat and knew I was close and saw I won. If they like my posts it is their decision and I can't change that
Stating something I do, then making a statement on the topic at hand and commenting on an users decision to like my posts
Seems like their is no slander to RM here
Response 4: RM thinks that it has some validation or is an official list or something
His tone was given in a way where it came off as he believed it was a true list. Like you said, it's your likes, not the sites, so I am stating someone you concur with. Maybe this is what you are thinking of. Not slander
Response 5: RM thinks the list is an heirachy list, when there are flaws to the list
Not slander. Stating his belief on the list to think it is the list of the general consensus isn't true, because it is your belief/like. You admitted to this being your opinion, so this statement is truth
Response 6: The list would then be called "Utter bullshit because I am not on it."
Only one I could potentially see an argument, but yet again, not slander. He has done this in the past with other list and diagnosed himself as a narcissist in the past, so there is reasonable evidence he would say this. It isn't a bad thing and is a character trait to show confidence. Confidence isn't slander, and having humor is good.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Slander is to make false and damaging statements about (someone).
Is this damaging to him, not at all. Nothing here is damaging to his reputation
Is this false, NO

Untrue. You can say anything you want. I just called it irrational.
You can do that then and no one will care
How can you "disagree" with what I like? You like a different thing? How is that related to me at all?
A: I like rock
B: I don't like rock, therefore I disagree

In your case
B: I don't like rock, therefore I disagree

A: i think ____ is a must read members
B: I disagree with that statement, there are better members to read
It's something I disagree with. Doesn't mean I respect the person less
It's something I disagree with. Doesn't mean I respect the person less
Good for you that the one deciding is you. I know he'll be objective.
Insulting someone is different from insulting a list made by them. It isn't insulting them as a person
It's rational for you to "disagree" with a personal taste of mine? Lol. And you're a mod?
Nope. I am a Discord Mod, not a DART Mod. Clear difference. I have no power on DART to do anything, with little input/say, and I will happily be that way. And just because I disagree with a personal taste doesn't mean I have to swing my ban hammer on you. Virt, Ragnar, and other mods have personal preferences and likes and dislikes. Yet you don't accuse them of irrationality
What's to believe. You think what I like is invalid because you don't like it. Rich.
Your not listening to my points about the term "invalid," so I am not gonna respond to this

@ethang5
Sure you did.
Yea no I didn't but just say I did and point to no evidence at all. He would have said something anyway. He is always very critical and keen to point out that stuff
My opinion of your behavior is an insult but your opinion of my list is ypur prerogative?
It's an insult because it is directly aimed at me. Saying I think your list is not good is not an insult toward you.
Lol. Your opinion is that what I find good for me shouldn't be.
Your claim is that I shouldn't say anything if I disagree with a list you made. i never said that wht you fins good shouldn't be. I'm allowed to express a belief because it is allowed on this site. I never said you have to believe me
Yes. Even highly irrational ones.

I know. I didn't say you did. I said you slandered RM.
Lmao I never slandered him in fact there was no slander. if you had to, it would be him but go ahead buddy
From your behavior on this thread so far, I would think he has a point.
Way to use an insult as an argument
So you "disagree" with who I find interesting to read. You think I should not find Dr. Franklin interesting, and think your opinion somehow invalidates my liking his posts. It's amazing how you cannot see how ludicrous that position is.
I said the nothing is an exaggeration for not good. And I did not say at all that invalidates the person who is on there, it makes you look worse versus the person up there. DrFranklin is a swell person and I would have nothing against him because he was not asked to be on this list. And I never my opinion invalidates your opinion. We are entitled to our own opinion, and frankily I disagree with yours
If you have a different list, make one of your own dudz. Mine doesn't have to agree with yours. And my list is not validated by whether you like it or not.
That's fine. I think yours isn't good but go on.
My list was perfect for me. It has all the people I like to read. How is that "not good"? A list that did not have my favs would be "not good".
Then good for you if it is good for you. It's my opinion
You think my list has to be good for you for it to be good. But then it wouldn't be my list now would it?
I am giving an opinion, and my opinion is allowed
You obviously dislike Dr. Franklin and RM, and are letting your hate cloud your good sense. My opinion is that both of them consistently make better posts than you.
No. I think RM is a great poster and I respect him as an user. I also like DrFranklin. Good person but personally don't think he is a "Must Read." He spammed his way to 3k forum posts, but that doesn't detract from him as a person. And good for them if you think they make better posts than me. I honestly don't care. I'll take my most liked post because of my fanfic and walk with my head high
But it's has been nice to know my list didn't meet your approval. Luckily for me, my list is supposed to contain the posters I like, and not the posters you like. That is what makes my list "good" for me.
GOOD FOR YOU

Normally this is true. but not the case right now. In a 10person game, this is can brutal to town especially since claimed right away and can will for sure be the NK target. We have one less burden to worry about. Unless we have a doctor, it is in our best interest to try to lynch them so we don't have to worry about potentially dealing with it in DP'sI don't agree with the philosophy of killing town confirmed people before we must.
It would be polite to wait for replacements to check in (not to mention, it gives us initial reads on them).

Not to mention the UN endorsed the war in Iraq in 2003, later claiming it was a violation. So at the time, it was perfectly legal. After the Baghdad bombing of a UN HQ, killing 15, they left. They do not want their people dying when brute authority is at hand. They won't do anything and hence, military like the US has to help the people in these situations.

The UN did not beef up personnel and they have failed to keep up the region, simply not having the manpower and retreating the area and had no way in preventing the fight. French troops had to come in to put the situation down and help the people by giving them a shelter from the senseless violence. Innocent lives were lost to the UN, but saved by an army fighting the enemy at hand.

The UN has been ineffective at doing this "resolving inner crisis stuff." The Rwandan Genocide was supposed to be put down and safe guarded by UN, but the volunteer coups left the people to die and did nothing. But yea sure, lets put UN in charge of this stuff with their 10k troops in a violent nation when innocent civilian lives are at risk

No. I never said specifically stated that I was mad I wanted to be on the list in the first place. It was pointing criticisms to your list which I then found the list badLol. OK. But your behavior on this thread belies that claim.
A personal read list can only have validity or be "great" for its creator. Your opinion of its validity or greatness is illogical. Perhaps you are confused about the concept.
Then that's good for you. I personally don't think it's good and disagree, so technically it doesn't
How another person's personal tastes can be "not good or flawed" for you escapes me. You liking or not liking it does nothing to its greatness or validity.
I can point through the list but I don't have time to do so
Like you're contending right now. Lol. OK dude
I am not calling it bullshit cause I am not on it. Never said I was mad about it, but looking at the list, I objectively disagree with some of the people and I think it is bad
