Why would there be a troll topic you troll with comments that are serious not supposed to .

War history from any time guns where involved... not my strong suit. In all honesty the Lime did win that little quarrel.
I wouldn't so much say win, Greysoul.

RandomMan did make me rethink a lot of my ideas regarding WW2. He is a good debater :) I came to the conclusion that we would never know, as we were not losing before America was involved, and he agreed to disagree. Was a good debate! Stalemate, probably.

Galagoth, I had time for Greysoul, as he makes me laugh and seems like quite the intelligent guy. (Pity you use it for trolling! *smack* :P... but everybody has to get their jollies somehow), and I have time for RandomMan as he is also an intelligent guy and always offers up a great debate.

Why don't I have time for you? Let me break it down:

1. I honestly don't have the time. Got to pack for my trip to London tomorrow!
2. You said nobody in Africa had a history apart from S.Africa. Hello? EGYPT?
3. You thought the T-34 was designed by Americans. Even the American design within the tank was rejected by America.
4. You have CLEARLY copy/pasted this from some form of wiki, given the "[citation needed]" part. (By the way, that means somebody has written it without evidence. Therefore it cannot be used as solid evidence, no matter how much logical sense it makes).
5. The lease money we GAVE to America could have been used to domestically manufacture/buy our munitions from other countries. Just because you bought sweets from the shop, it doesn't mean the shop is the only guy with sweets for sale.
6. I suspect that the only paragraph actually written by you is the last one. Sadly.
7. I never said the UK had the power alone to beat Germany. Where did I say that Galagoth? I said we were not losing when America invaded. Not to mention our other allies, as I pointed out earlier.
8. I know nothing about WW2?... Galagoth. It seems you are the generic "brainwashed" American that I see on the news everyday. The one where history doesn't begin until the American revolution, and who sees a document with sweeping statements and no citations then decides: "LOLOLOL this is true!! Copypasta".

As I said. I have time for RandomMan as he is an intelligent guy who knows his facts and can structure an argument. I have time for Greysoul as he is a bright spark and, despite his trolling, he is very rarely insulting in a non-joking/trolling way. And admittedly, even though I took the John a bit about his grammar and spelling, he has a great grasp of the English language shown through his clever turns of phrases regarding Americanisms. Maybe I have not been observant enough, but I remember that when I first joined these forums you and another were trolling half the topics on here. Since then, I have not seen you put forwards a logical and structured debate without resorting to insulting comments or plainly copy/pasting a whole article. Galagoth, seriously. A link would have been fine.

I'd call myself a hypocrite for writing all this, when I don't have the time for you. But it would be far, far longer and require so much more effort that I'm just not willing to put in for you.

So your argument has been reduced to a copy/pasted article with sweeping statements and no citations, with a paragraph of your insultingly clumsy drivel, furiously plastered on the end.

Good day to you, sir!

I feel all happy now. Thank you for the complements! Know I would have had a more structured argument if it had been on a part of history I know anything about. Hope you have fun in the only part of the UK with proper infrastructure :P

You're welcome, I just told the truth!

Yeah same, I know a bit more about the "before guns" part of history than the "after guns" part, too! :)

Thanks mate! Haha, the infrastructure here isn't too bad. I wouldn't mind those pot holes filled in, though ;) Most of our cities aren't large enough (both population and geographical size) to have conveniences like "the tube". We're stuck with buses, Taxi's and cars in most places here :P

Also, I have to wonder if PvtCryan is going to (try to) kick your ass with his 1000 PL for ripping off his tail! I look forward to reading it when I get back :D

You yourself are very learned and witty good sir. :)

Somehow guns make history less interesting, don't know why ^o)

"I took the John a bit about his grammar and spelling" Not something every American understands.

I live in the 16th largest city in the US. Still no "tube".

Potholes. The bane of my driving lessons.

I got the oozaru trump card. X10 power, with a few weaknesses.

Making me blush, Greysoul! xD Real men don't blush!!

Yeah I agree. I always become very prejudice regarding post-gunpowder warfare, the "and he shot at him, and he shot back" feels a bit... dull. I'm vastly oversimplifying it, but I guess you'll know what I mean...

Oh really?... Does that count as a Britishism? Englishism? :P

Admittedly, I know virtually nothing about U.S. city infrastructure, I just assumed all big cities had good quality/quantity transport.

Ah, haha VERY good point xD (I had to Google "oozaru", haha. Had no idea that's what "ape form" was called! Look Ma', I'm learning!) It will be fun to see if you two achieve Super Saiyan. Curious to see how/if Kaguro will implement it!

Thank you for the compliments, Dantos! :)

I have to say I try to learn about most of history. I can't get enough of it. Though I hnestly think guns are interesting, since a lot of the gun-warfare history involved newer tactics (blitzkrieg, a better form of guerilla warfare)

See! We Americans aren't the only ones! :P

Lucky Grey, all I have is a water-downed Kaioken. :)

Only the most real men wear pink, which I do on a regular basis.

Not just warfare, After gunpowder politics and international relations changed noticeably.

How about "Proper English" or a "full English phrase"?

This IS America. Public transport not as big a thing here. We DO use literally twice as much resources per person as Germany.

And knowledge is power.

I don't expect my char to, though it is a possibility. If he did he would immediately qualify for ssj4, though I expect Kag to make changes so it isn't as ridiculous as it is in GT.

You're welcome! You have always been very good at debating since I first joined these forums. Always a joy and a horror to see you posting in a topic :P

One of my best friends is a bit of a History nerd when it comes to WW2 and gun-warfare, like yourself (if you don't mind me saying, in a non-insulting way :P). He keeps trying to convince me how great gun-warfare is and how Napoleon:TW is better than Medieval but meh. I guess I understand less about it, so it is further out of my comfort zone, making me less interested.

I really am looking forward to seeing how you guys get on with your exploring. I have to go now, but I will be sure to check in on Wednesday (to rebuff Galagoth again, probably), and compliment you two some more. Have fun guys, speak to you in a few days :-)
