1) Last word syndrome

4) Troll syndrome

Everyone here probably falls into one category or other

Eh? Whats all that mean then? I don't have any warts or live under a bridge! I'm not going to whine after the votes have been counted! I think I'm gonna just ignore you. And thats the last word on that.

Oh get over yourself. I remember debates like this one way back on the old BBS's on the early '90s when Civ1 was the hottest game ever. It is an _old_ debate.

No This whole america is not a civ bullsh@t is F@($ing old. Excuse my language. And its F#%@ing Sickening that it still continues. Most of you people sit here and argue and bicker and not one God Damn thing is accomplished. Like a bunch of F*#@ing babies. waahhh america isnt a civ waaaahhh yeah it is.
This went on for weeks a couple of months ago and yes i was involved in the arguement too. And i didnt acomplish anything. Anything anyone says in a thread like this doesnt mean Sh*t. Including myself, i know that what im writing now wont do anything. All you dipsh*ts will continue this pointless annoying waste of time arguement. Verywell. have fun.

Everyone on both sides of the arguement are too friggen stubern to change their mind anyway. I hope you all know that.

And another thing, america is in the game too. You do know that too right.

I also hope you know that if you dont want america in the game that you will have to edit the game.

I would like to say that i think that some of you lack reading skills, commen sense, and intelligence yet you still insist on arguing. You know who you are.

I hope this thread is deleted. Along with my post, in fact delete my post.

P.S. I know that i have probably insulted most of you by writing this since most people like to keep things simple and easy and dont like to question what they do or why they do it. So the first thing that i expect certain people to do is mock my spelling and grammer mistakes (which i feel is a natural reaction to something that removes the blindfold that sheilds us from reality) Now your probably thinking, this guy is insane and hes full of it.

Go ahead and bash away, not that it will acomplish anything.

You know what would acomplish something. IF you all just droped this lame go no where subject.

HEhe i bet your mad right now and you probably havent read all of my post and your responding now. IF you did read it all i hope you actually read it and didnt just skim through. Then again i wouldnt read this post if i were you anyway.

So go ahead and call me a troll, not that will acomplish anything eaither.

Personally i think that anyone who even posts in this thread is a troll. I guess that would include myself.

You know what the best thing you could do, even though you wont do it, is not even respond to me. Just a hint. Cause i dont know if you can tell but im pretty annoyed. So please dont waste your time and correct my spelling and grammer, that annoy's me more. If i wanted to spell correctly and use proper grammer i would but i dont care one bit.

You could say this is me passing the time while i wait for CIV 3.

Yeah thats it.

MUHAHAHHAHAHHA

drop the subject.

In response to the point "America can't be a civ because it came from England and Europe" I shall do some math.

America = England + Continental Europe + Small influence form many cultures.

England = Norman + Saxon + Welsh

Norman = French + Scandinavian
Saxon = Germanic + Roman

French = Germanic + Rome
Scandinavian = Germanic + Lapp

Rome = Etruscan + Hellenistic
Hellenistic = Greek + Persian + Egyptian

Greek = Cretian + Dorian

Note: Some of this may not be completely correct, as I do not have a history book, but the point still stands.

So, Essentially, only those civilizations which sprang wholecloth from hunter-gatherer tribes can be counted?

(joke)Jesus! An American with a brain and who uses it! Incredible!(/joke)

I 100% agree with this post.
I would also say that the problem is that the game is called 'civilization' while some factions are just 'nations'.
The concepts nation and civilization could be mixed for Egyptian, Babylonian (not sure this one), Japan, maybe Aztecs but surely not for the Romans, French, Germans, Americans.
So, if the game includes Romans, French or Germans, it could also include Americans and Brazilians and Australians. Why not?

We don't force you to post, do we? If there are still people who want to discuss this subject, why not? You don't have to join them.

Letterman top ten list for why Americans are in Civ1/2/3*

10. Hutus and Tutsis too similar and all dead now.

9. Provoke the Eurocoms (healthy fun for the whole family).

8. D*ck size counts at the Firaxis casting couch!

7. USAians just doesn't have the right ring to it...besides who cares about Mexico and Canada, it's our continent.

6. Blame it on the butterfly ballet...

5. part of evil plot to Coca-colonize young Yeminis

4. DOOO-ED. Like what's with all these other civs, man. Can't tell who they are. But I got a toasty buzz on.

3. Needed replacements when the political correct police eliminated the n*ggers, spics, wops, dagos, ****s and honkies.

2. corporate sponsorship fell through. Were planning on using: Microsoftians and Toyotans, but they woiuldn't shill out.

--------------------------

And the number 1 reason for having Americans in the Civ game?



-----------------------------

1. Americans!! That was supposed to be ARMENIANS! DOH!!








*note for whiners, get a life and a clue...list is a joke.

They're never that funny...kinda quirky really. Whyd don't you contribute something, smartypants?

[Dauphin]

The Americans are in for political correctness.

Sorry that's Iroquois. Same continent though.

I think I had thread fatigue....Spent so long reading it, that by the time I was ready to say something ... I had nothing to say

Just like now

[TCO]

I know what you mean about thread fatigue.

I was going to start my own thread to put my joke in (after all that work!! ) But the thread nazis (err, I mean trusted moderators) would have clamped down on me...

[KrazyHorse]

I liked the number 10 entry, but only cuz I'm a sociopath.

[The Negotiator]

The French and English are in so why not americans? English and french do have longer history than americans but so what?

I don't remember reading what glorious English civilization did in 4000 bc.

And if I were american and were making this game OFCOURSE i would add USA in it too. But this not the main reason. I don't think that it's just political correctness. This game isn't a simulation IT's JUST A GAME and is ment to fun. So there is no real reason why america shoudn't be included in game.

I was pushing the harshness boundary on a couple of them. (BTW what is it with this sociopath thing.) Roommate kicking your ass? Break up with your sexy girlfriend?
