Holy fucking shit every single thread gets derailed into a conversation about either the UK or the english language fucking stop. We're talking about giant hunks of titanium slinging 3000 tons of metal at 4% the speed of light at giant purple space dildos while they fight over a giant hoola hoop. This is getting extremely stupid and I hope a mod addresses this at some point. If you want to talk about this either message him or post in Jail or Off Topic about it.

NO U.

Off topic section is made to go off topic, why else is it called off topic.

So how did the Terrible Thread get locked for going "off topic" then?

Semantics... this is the Halo lore area.

And if it isn't you it is someone else whom derails the thread. You're just the latest person and are more memorable because you start derailing with something about the British military or your personal experiences or Britain Vs.

Ask a moderator...

I think this has gone really far off-topic. (I certainly had a hand in it.) So I'm gonna go ahead and shut this one down. Locked.

youre over 18, we can blame you for your choices now.

No its my social norm, i can't help it, i was raised that way.

You don't blame someone for their accent.

no, but you CAN blame them for actively trying to derail topics.

[SPECTRE]

"Actively" I don't mean to do it. Your assumption is amusing.

you already admitted to it.

[SPECTRE]

you already admitted to it.

It is the natural way in which a conversation flows, from one topic to another, I am really quite chatty on here (only during GMT hours), so conversations naturally evolve faster. As i said Catalyst, it is only a matter of time before it goes off topic, i just make it get there faster.

IU mean look at how this has evolved, from the mantle, to dialects to pointing the blame game.

Guaranteed if you met me in the flesh you would be lucky to get more than a sentence out of me, i'm not one for small talk, yet alone conversation, in fact any talk whatsoever. Anglians aren't much in the way of talking anyway.

Halo Lore is meant for discussions regarding Halo Lore. It's in Off Topic because it is off the topic of the mod, not because it is allowed to be filled with petty bullshit. Mod Staff, feel free to keep anything outside of the Off Topic subsection (→Off Topic →Off Topic) On Topic.

Might as well lock this one down since the damage is already done.
