    W.Rabbit to be fair ... he doesn't hide.

        Oh nothing here in this thread I can think of, I haven't really even been paying attention to the topic.

        ... but I am sure if you ask W.Rabbit he has a list of stuff from the past. The man is organized if nothing else.

        * shrugs *

        I just try to keep things real and on the up and up.

          Fair nuff. The usual demand is some kind of personal information that would give him an opportunity to defame me in some way. I am simply not that stupid or reactionary IRL.

            I never defame people with information, I only light up the darkness with it.

            My goals are simple, to help people out of the shadows and provide them assurances online. That's what I do. You'll have a tough time finding a more trustworthy person online. That's a fucking fact.

            I just have a well developed spidey sense for identifying mis/disinformation campaigns, which is why I love hanging out on this website. It's like one of those pedals where a pet can push down their paw, and get a treat, but my treats are liars, cheats, thieves, and scoundrels. You and quite a few others have a habit of triggering this finely tuned sense.

            Sorry if it's not always accurate, but I have a great track record, so good in fact they call me a "Lethal Forensicator".

            It's not easy, but most people will eventually learn to trust me (it's inevitable). I have a penchant for being aloof and a major wise ass, but it's by design. It causes fireworks to fly here sometimes, but in person I'm extremely likeable, physically intimidating, and gentle as a teddy bear.

            Unfortunately, my gentle nature makes striking martial arts and hurting people in combat more difficult (see my fight video for details), which is why for the most part, I enjoy grappling arts, archery, and defending the public.

              A hunter, on the other hand, has not only sunk those broad heads, they've slit the throats, drained and disemboweled the carcass, mounted the rack, butchered the game, and if they're lucky, they have frozen venison to last for a whole season.

              Maybe I'm just being a pighead, but the idea that running around that field with a bow and arrow makes you Katniss Everdeen or Hawkeye at home defense...I can't buy that.
              Killing, as a study, will always trump sport when it comes to the practice of killing.

                Other than firearms, with the bows you have one of the world's oldest weapons still used worldwide to hunt game and FOR SPORT, so there still exists today a large number of guilds that promote serious archery skills FOR SPORT, and beyond.

                Yes, they still have "guilds" that aren't completely for LARP. They are usually really cool places.

                A trip to a local archery guild is a good eye opening to anybody interested. Guilds are probably the best places on earth to learn real archery skills across the board. How to stay safe with the weapons, how to perfect accuracy and consistency, and of course for the serious minded, how to kill things with your bows.

                The thing is, I knew quite a few guildies and I think they'd LOVE Archery Tag but at the same time snicker at it and make fun of it at the same time, ESPECIALLY the people who play it and think they're learning bow and arrow combat skills,

                I think that is exactly the crowd that would be attracted to Archery Tag...the Katniss soccer moms and Green Arrow comic book dads, and of course little Johnny the Ninja Archer who probably plays Archery Tag and then tells all his friends he goes to school for "Combat Archery" or similar.

                The Hunger Games did for the bow what You Only Live twice did for ninjas.

                Nowadays everybody wants one.

                  I already told you, man. I'm not sending dick picks. You'll just have to take my word.
                  It's magnificent.

                    Maybe I don't.

                    It's the 21st century.

                    Yes pun intended.

                      I'm not sure if I believe this. Unless of course your trustworthiness comes with a huge side of dickish attitude. If your true nature is to help people as you say and you're claiming to a "nice person", I haven't seen evidence of it. Now I can understand the desire to troll once in a while, but I think you take it too far.

                        I never claimed to be a nice person. But at least I make attempts. I'm usually not trolling, I'm the opposite, I'm way too fucking serious.

                        The Bugs Bunny act is just how I cope with my uberseriousness. I'm only like this with friends, consider yourself lucky to even see this side of me.

                        AS far as believing it, you don't have to for it to work for your advantage (or disadvantage). Don't worry about that (unless you have a good reason).

                          Fair enough explanation. Now I realize I myself have had a dickish attitude toward people on many occasions on this site, and I am trying to change that. I could have argued for several pages over arrowheads with you guys lol.

                              Nah, I have had too many arguments as it is. Besides mostly arguments like that turn into back and forth trollfests and I'm trying to give that approach up.

                                As long as you keep it to facts and things you know how could it be a trollfest?

                                See, Poe's Law means you can't tell the difference between two buds nerding out over arrowheads and two trolls haranguing each other over whatever the fucking topic.

                                So you just have to trust me, and I need to believe you, for things to work out.

                                Everything I've said is true. I am a very experienced archer. I am here to help you.

                                I will post pics of my Ghost if you beg me. Come on, beg. It's sooo cool. I have buried bolts into mountainsides with that thing.
