My final words on Platinum

[Ryvor]

Reyvor.....anything you say against me only makes you sound like a suck up to EF. So you have a problem with educated people huh? lol That's ok. My kind will inherit the earth.

I don't have a problem with educated people. I have a problem with people who think they are educated, but in reality they are not. Your kind is not smart enough to inherit the earth. You want to know why? Because the those of us that are more intelligent and have more common sense will never leave the earth to your kind of ilk. The only way you will inherit the earth is if we screw up and leave it for you.

Oh really? You are that smart? Who are the first recorded Democrats in History? What Country? What reprocutions did it have? How does that effect us today? What year was the first recorded civilization? Where? Give me a complete essay on Western Civ.....are you capable of that? Who is Publius? What is considered the Blue Print of the Constitution? What was the prime reason the States United under one Gov't? How many of the Delegates at the Constitutional Convention were lawyers? Which state did not go to it? How many Constitutional Conventions were there? If we had another one.....who picks who gets to go? What would be the ramifications of having one today? Constitutionally......who really votes for President? I could go on & on & on & on......yes......we will inherit the earth. You? You don't even matter. You probly don't even vote.

You sound trained in one area of knowledge. What are you a Western Civ major. I think true knowledge is measured by a diversity of knowledge.

Don't mind me...I'm just provoking!

George, you make a strong arguement and I agree. You're a businessman and it's a necessary movement. This will only filter out any undesireable element. I recently lost my job and I'm starting a new one next week. I'm in.

By the way, about this Karma thing. I'm not paying a subscription and then not be able to use this board. If I'm going to shell out 120 a year then bad Karma better not effect my usage of this site, regardless of whether I post stupid threads that warrant "bad Karma." I want to be assured of this not happening before I send any money.

Hey Storm... I had a minor in classical civilizations in undergrad... I specialized in Greek and Roman culture and writings...

I wouldn't mind having a discussion or two with you about the Roman Empire...

For what it's worth to you George...I will always support this board...It has helped me in so many ways, that there is not enough room in one post to explain it...

To all of the other members of Elite:

Some of you seem to be pissed about a price being put on the boards recently...Well, it takes alot of time, people and money to run a board like this...Are economy is in a little bit of a struggle at the moment because of the recent events...If you really like being on this board and want to learn and help others, now is the time to show your aprreciation to Mr. Spellwin and the rest of the Elite staff for putting in so much valued time and effort into this board....

My rant is done...

Ok George I did as I said I would. I ordered 2 tubs of TT, a bottle of Flax Seed Oil, a T - shirt and a Platinum membership. I still have my doubts about the membership, but I want to support the site. However I agree with crackerlinebacker/ ironbarbarian that for the money there should be more then the ability to look at pictures I could care less about, and I'm sure I'm not alone. There are other free gear picture sites, and I don't need a journal.
quote: "Maybe having a PRO come in once a month or something" Excellent idea, now that would be worth 140 a year.
