UF News: Interview with Realest

>: (

How about this.. click the Random kingdom button. Choose a random province. Send an in-game mail to organize an interview. If you fail, rinse and repeat. It should be interesting to try that at least once and see what kind of interview you get out of it.

The interviews are mildly entertaining but there seems to be a general opinion that those who have been interviewed have an issue with self-obsession. On a more personal note, I tire of egoistic people. Is that the kind of people we have at the 'top' of the utopian community?

I could try that...

I didn't read much of the interview, maybe 5-6 lines, but it was just painful. You could tell both the interviewer and interviewee seriously wished to be funny, and...just weren't. I mean, you could make a fart noise with your armpit and be infinitely more entertaining than this was.

Really? I can't speak for Realest, but I wasn't aware that I was even going for humor.

Appreciate the effort GLW put in... and how great she's taking the criticism, inputs, and comments.

I'm sure your next interview will be great GLW. Looking forward to it :) ...

If it turns out like this... it'll be the last interview I'll read.

i agree...
i'm too tired reading egotistic individuals
they're just killing the fun w/ their big ego

i'm looking forward to your upcoming interviews, good ma'am
you are good at it
thing is
you interviewed the wrong persons.

you people have a twisted sense of humour if you believe this aimed at being funny

Haters just fail to see the purpose in things, then hate even more .. Come on guys, stop trying to fit something into your narrow framework and condemning it just because it doesn't do what you want it to do. Or actually, do go on hating so we can all have a good laugh in private :P

Regarding the whole Science/Religion discussion ... You guys might do well to realise that your discussions thus far have mostly only succeed in demonstrating your lack of understanding in the areas of Philosophy of Science and Epistemology, and therefore all you have done has been a mere "chasing after the wind". *NOTE: Palem is the exception.. he was pretty much the only winner here ^^

Stupid questions in turn get stupid answers. The questions werent very good and there's nothing I can really tell you people on a serious level with that question bank. Was I not very humourous? I agree. However, if any of you have any sense of pop culture, the Michael Jordan, Kobe Bryant, Charlie Sheen, Chad Johnson, etc. quotes should not have eluded you. Try to escape your uto nerd bubble for a sec and try to look at things beyond face value.

Not a knock on GLW because she seemed rather awesome and was a nice individual, but here's a prime example of her catering to the masses (and including dumb questions such as the one from our beloved Mod Palem about sk's weight) and it completely misses the mark. The interview is a great idea, and interviewing narcissists is not necessarily a bad idea. You just require the right individual to do it. Find the most annoying troll, and let me interview him and I promise you, you will learn more about that individual because I have the know-how to present ideas.

Those who know me understand the character that is being read on these forums is a sham; I do this to get a rise of out all you nubs to great effect, and we laugh at all your ignorance in private. Hence, stop attacking the interviewer or the news team; theyre doing a good job. You all had a chance to make this story great, but you chose to be silent and complained massively after the fact instead. You have to be the change you wish to see in this world. For you nerd boys, that is Ghandi.

Uncharacteristic display of benevolence ... like a coup de grace ... this is actually really touching to behold.

Hung & CrossHeart: thanks for the support, I'll try not to disappoint.

Trying to call a winner without giving any reason and claiming someone lacks understanding without giving any examples = laughable

I lack understanding in the 'philosophy of science'? lol. I have a degree in experimental physics, I know exactly what science does and does not address which was the core of our discussion so please either elucidate your ramblings and give precise points, otherwise you have no business venturing opinions.

All aboard the Derail Train.

Off to general talk with you.

Thanks Bishop.

If anyone cares to continue the discussion, I have taken it to the "General Talk" sub-forum: http://forums.utopia-game.com/showth...nce-amp-Theism

"Those who know me understand the character that is being read on these forums is a sham; I do this to get a rise of out all you nubs to great effect, and we laugh at all your ignorance in private."

That might be true, except for the fact that this is exactly how you act on IRC and in game. If you "pretend" to act like this all the time, it isn't pretend.
