I received an email from Mr. Lord Dark Star Himself

Post by lowtax »

While I hardly ever post on any forum but my own, I felt it was necessary to convey this exciting message to you guys. Mr. Star decided to email me regarding my choice to profile him for today's ALoD, mostly based off the fact that he's loony. However, just to be up front and honest, I think this site is equally insane and most of you people are nutso as well. However, you don't seem to suffer the extreme paranoia and schizophrenia that Mr. Star seems to be inflicted with.

Anyway, I registered here just so I could share his email with you, since I know you two have a love / hate relationship, mostly revolving around Captain Han Solo and John Luke Picard and the Ewoks or Hobbits or whatever you discuss in such a heated fashion.
Hello,

(Pardon my use of a Yahoo address, but my webhost's
POP3 system doesn't seem to like somethingawful.co*)

Er, "thanks" for the site recognition, and the
newsflash that it's a dorky topic. :-)

That, we already knew. I'm just in it for the
idle pastime . . . there are a lot weirder pastimes
out there (creationism, that "sex with dolphins" guy,
and the "malarkey or effective way" guy come screaming
to mind).

What should've really freaked you out, though,
wasn't the existence of a site on the topic (good
grief, what topic *doesn't* have a website?), or
even my new site on the topic. What should really
freak you out is this:

1. The author of www.h4h.com/louis/vsfaq.html (the
oldest and oddest website on the topic) openly
fantasizes about killing me over the debate and our
difference of opinion in regards to it
(http://groups.google.com/groups?q=39th+ ... com&rnum=1).

2. The author of www.stardestroyer.net (a
several-years-old "Star Wars fanboys are pure evil"
site with way more "grease amount" than my own) takes
the debate so personally that:
A. he feels it necessary to harass the educators of
those he disagrees with
(http://www.stardestroyer.net/Empire/Hat ... nnedy.html)
B. he insults those who criticize Star Wars in
any way
(http://www.stardestroyer.net/Empire/HateMail/Brin.html)
C. he and his web board participants are so twisted
that the majority of them don't believe the
quintessential science-fiction "evil empire" is
evil.
(http://www.st-v-sw.net/STSWscary.html).
D. he created "hate mail" pages specifically in
reference to me, which link to a page containing
all the personal information he and his flunkies
could find about me
(This was even before my new site went up, but
after the same fellow complained about people
harassing him with threatening phone calls and
such).
. . . and so on.


My site may be "something awful", but those guys
are something worse.
I'm not going to even bother replying to him, as posting on this forum is going at least nine steps further than I normally go in response to an ALoD. But hey, I thought you guys might get a kick out of it, so there you go.

We can hardly disagree that we are infact slighty mad, but this is the good kind of mad.

Actually we discuss whatever useless waste of time we can get our hands on, mostly we discuss how it is when a Star Destroyer melts the crust of a planet or some shit like that.

Of course, it should be pointed out that only a portion of the board is dedicated to Scifi and Vs debates.

Thanks for that newsflash . . . we had no idea! :-) A pity they didn't bother to mention the sites of Wong and Poe which are even worse, but they did do a similar rip into Saxton's SW Technical Commentaries back in the day, so it could be said that I stand in august company. And let's face it, it's nice for the new kid on the block to get top billing in the debate. :-)
Wow, he really is insane. He thinks that he made some sort of honor and is comapring himself to Curtis Saxton. Like he's fit to lick his boots.

You know, the downside is that if this does not kill his site due to bandwidth strain, so many people will see his arguments we will be fighting them for years to come.

We probably would be any way. Darkstar might be an idiot of unprecedented determination and obession but he's done nothing more than latch onto the standard trektard arguements. At most he's taken the usual run of the mill stupidty to the extreme.

I find it so amusing that he tried so desperately to get himself off the site, and replaced with us, yet the guy actually is nice enough to come here and let us laugh at his stupidity.

I wouldn't worry about the mention, actually.

Hopefully someone would go to RSA's site, notice he's a loon, possibly head over here to see who the 'evil Wong' is, notice we have pictures of topless women buried in our forums and open and frank discussions about genitals, and figure out our redeeming qualities as sci-fi geeks.
Note: I'm semi-retired from the board, so if you need something, please be patient.

I like the way Darkstar spends most of his message to SA.com talking about me. He really is obsessed with trying to tear down my credibility. Too bad I still have an engineering degree and he doesn't.

Has anyone sent a copy of the forum page with lowtax's post to RSA? I am certain he'd LOVE that!

There are pics of topless women here?!? :shock:

It's a little thing called reality check, which he lost a long time ago.

That line would seem to justify DorkStar's existence.

And while Mr. Kyanka won't be posting here again, I just wanted to add that this weeks Comedy Goldmine is brilliant.
