There's no fact or merit in conspiracy theories, that's why they are conspiracy theories not history.

The ktl gods mercilessly destroyed trolls and pseudo nonsense in the forum and created an atmosphere for learning and sharing.


Anyone with a brain isn't going to want to discuss topics or start topics on a forum dominated by reptilians, big foot, aliens, bilderberg whatever the fukk you idiots want to talk about. Go back to the abts forum.

A couple of things, I'm not sure what you're talking about with this e-bullying/e-thuggery stuff. I have a history of clowning and insulting people with jokes; people who usually engage in the same back-and-forth banter with me. It's dozens shyt, though. I've never been one to claim I'm some tough guy thug who would beat people up if I saw them in person. And I'm certainly not the only KTL poster who does that, nor am I even in the minority or close to it. The posters you mention that I get at--Sly, Mowgli, Gundam, you, Kingpin, Meta...who DOESN'T get at y'all? You just named all the laughingstocks of KTL. It's not a coincidence that the people who spew nonsense in a knowledge forum tend to get lampooned.

Almost everybody e-beefs, homie...I'm just pretty good at it and have done it often. And you seem to be more sensitive to it then most people. Mowgli, Meta, Kingpin, and Sly don't give a shyt if I diss them. They just diss me back...sometimes brutally. And we can still discuss things in a civil manner because we don't get all emotional about internet jokes.

Why did you insult me and and call me insane or whatever then claim I'm bringing negativity here when I respond in kind? Don't throw stones then hide your hand. I've made a marked effort to be on better behavior in the Coli and have been so far. I haven't dissed anyone who didn't get at me first other than that one Gundam reference in this thread and he doesn't even post here.

Also, you seem to be a bit confused with this talk about the mod thread from last year. I did not campaign to be mod in that thread. I made one half-hearted ass comment like I would be mod if I was nominated and left it that. TWISM and Mowgli were competing. I commented on what I felt about them, but I wasn't even in the race and didn't want to be. Maybe all that liquid life energy and st. john's wort and magic crystals didn't get your chakras aligned enough to help your memory function.

Me being a mod or not being a mod won't have any effect on your bullshyt pseudoscientific new age posts...relax.

whatever dude... im a huge jokester but even i know the difference between jokes and attacks, between playing the dozens--and trying to make yourself look good at the expense of others.

some of the stuff you write is harmless jokes but some of that stuff you used to write, especially to gundam, was straight malicious... no jokes, no friendly banter, just you being a bully with your lil minions running behind you. the shyt's whack. and the fact everybody knows you aint bout that in real life makes it even more whack. and the fact you ran around screaming OTHER people took it too far just makes you look

i dont know if you used to drop knowledge back in the hey day of KTL but 99% of what ive seen from you since i started posting here is you acting like a spoiled egotistical brat.

just be more well rounded. crack jokes but drop some knowledge every once in a while too... and snap on people but never ever attack people with a malicious intent because it makes you look childish, not to mention the bad karma you are creating for yourself.

And my point is showcased.......I wouldn't stop 88M3 from discussing whatever is on his mind.....yet he feels the superiority complex or maybe fear of dialogue on whatever topic is brought up that makes him uncomfortable ....... why would you want to prevent someone from expressing themselves??? I don't get it........??

How many times did you type that, and shudder cause you know you lying.........and there are hundreds of examples to prove that you're lying or in a blackhole of complete ignorance .....

-Tuskegee experiment was a conspiracy theory too...until it was proven and admitted

-N.C. had a eugenics programs....and they are trying to figure out a way to pay back the victims of that....it was just on the local news station in Raleigh last week....and they used the term "eugenics"
"North Carolina closer to compensating eugenics victims"
http://dailycaller.com/2012/05/24/north-carolina-closer-to-compensating-eugenics-victims/

-GMO crops are not tested by authorities......yet the independent tests that are done on rats and mammals show major intestinal/stomach issues.....yet GMO crops are given a GRAS (Generally Regarded As Safe) wiaver, which means some one has to prove (better yet, be allowed to show) that there are negative side effects by the crops.

-Iraq had no WMDs......is that conspiracy theory or fact??

On, and on and on and on and on.....I'm not going to go into a super debate here, but the point is as 88M3 has displayed, lack of tolerance for intelligent conversation.....whats up with this "virtual book burning"....it defeats the purpose of "Higher Learning"

as for the mod situation what about the esposito cat? he seems reasonable and balanced, plus he was one of the first people in HL holding it down.

not too familiar with barnone aka nonchalant

acri is anti-anything thats outside mainstream thinking from what ive seen, i'd take nza over him if we're picking from that crowd

type username here has always been a good choice i think... again, someone that's reasonable and balanced

 

[cook]

If anything, there needs to be a campaign to encourage other posters to come in here and post that usually skip over the KTL/Higher Learning forums........I would say make a thread in those other popular forums asking "Why They Don't Post in the Higher Learning Forum?"....

agreed. we don't need to go on a merging/deleting spree. we just need some more activity. and if someone creates a shyt thread it will just flop and drop off the first page like in other forums

So, how do you all want to go about doing this? Because I see a lot of topics that should definitely be in Higher Learning.

Anything academic or job-related has some type of place in here. I think the board would benefit. I'm all ears.

Lol...are you serious dude? What are you talking about I should "drop more knowledge?" Nevermind the fact that you're using an outdated colloquial hip-hop phrasing in a serious conversation in 2012, but did you even read any of my posts?

I'm not sure what I should've said that would've met your criteria of "dropping knowledge." Maybe I should've posted about walking around with magic crystals stuck up my ass or something.

Maybe I should've said the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles were named after angels.

Or maybe I should've said someone paralyzed from a spinal hematona should've rejected a panel of doctors' recommendation for surgery and used herbs.

Or maybe I should've said cancer patients should not undergo chemotherapy and just drink liquid chlorophyll instead.

Or maybe I should've said rape and unnecessary killing in war is a new, modern phenomena.

Or maybe I should've said I believe in snake people because there's drawings of them in caves.

Or maybe I should believe HIV is a manmade government experiment.

Or maybe I should call water "liquid life energy."

Or maybe I should believe in Frances Cress Welshing racist pseudoscience bullshyt.

If that's your idea of dropping knowledge, then I guess I don't. My idea of dropping knowledge entails sanity and logic, though.

And you're being quite the hypocrite by accusing me of being a negative influence while singling me out and attacking me with long ass emotional paragraphs in this thread. Have an LLE, nikka.

Victor really isn't fit for being mod due his vindictive a$$hole qualities. I do like the idea of Brown Pride, Acri, or even NZA for being mod.

I'm trying to be better bruh. Some dudes don't want to leave their grudges and hurt feelings on the old site though.

 

[SirSmokeCrackAlot]

and the fact everybody knows you aint bout that in real life makes it even more whack.

He ain't bout what? This is a message board where people settle things with words. You just sound like another poster that gets so hurt over what someone said that you wanna meet up and fight in the street. The reality is you ain't about this life where who can beat who up doesnt translate into whos "right."

This is an immaterial and meaningless observation, but for the record, he ain't "about that life" either. Nobody who meditates in a lotus position surrounded by crystals and drinks liquid chlorophyll is hard unless they're a kung fu master.

This nikka probably walks around barefoot in capris and a dashiki smelling like incense and tofu.

I'm modding it as of right now, but those were all good choices. If only they'd show up here and post. But with that said, we need a lot more activity on here.

Do you all think this place would benefit from a drop-box where people post up course outlines, study charts, etc. Obviously everyone doesn't take the same courses, but a lot of things would be transferable. We shared one like that in law school (myself and others).


I don't get how the election thread isn't popping right now though.

Maybe a sub-forum or sticky thread for online classes.

The election thread aint poppin cause there isnt much new to talk about. I guess Obama just called Romney today to congratulate him on the nomination, so it should get more interesting soon.
