You could make a race of crabpeople who live in the center of the Earth. They're too frail to fight humans directly, so they make an incredibly detailed strategy game that hooks everyone in. In time, they drive away the brightest 10% of the players, leaving the remaining 90% to share its ignorance, becoming steadily less intelligent (and overweight from too much gaming) until the community becomes too fat, stupid and lazy to prevent the crabpeople's rise to dominance. You could even call the game Dominance just for the sake of irony.

Hubris. You can't even contain it after the fall.

Hubris? Please read the above comment. QED, brother.


Oh, and people with a sense of humor are immune to crabpeople. I suggest developing one to thwart the coming invasion.

I have a pretty decent sense of humor. I apologize if you find my defending the community and calling you out on your true bitter intentions to be humorless.

I dont think Id have called it hubris. Such a post made on their site would be hubris. Here its propaganda. I had some training on the subject. Note that propaganda does NOT mean that its false. It only means that its been worded to lean one direction. The same information can just as easily be worded in favor of the change. People have commented that my attitude has changed but it has not. I feel the same but I word it more carefully which is one of the reasons I am still here.

Sometimes a pat on the head can be more insulting than a rude word. And with a bit of practice he also could learn to make the same point with more of a honey tongue. If he made the effort then maybe he can even raise up that 10% abit.

Heehee. You comment that its 90% here, and 10% there. And you made the comment in a way that proves many points about the differences between the way the two forums function.

If you consider that a win than I think everyone won on that one.
