Myshkin Posted July 13, 2011 Share Posted July 13, 2011 Ok, so having been away for a few days it seems that something went terribly wrong. Let's try not to do that this time. Everyone be on their best behavior for the time being, and make sure not to flame anyone, or something. Have fun and PLAY NICE. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kuenjato Posted July 13, 2011 Share Posted July 13, 2011 what happened? everyone was getting along so... well... it was weird. What happened to the last thread? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bronn is God Posted July 13, 2011 Share Posted July 13, 2011 Tairy bashing is so funny that I am actually thinking about buying myselfs the books so I can join in on the fun.Second hand of course. No need to directly sponsor the great man. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grack21 Posted July 13, 2011 Share Posted July 13, 2011 Yeah wow. what ever happened to the other thread must have both happened quickly and been nasty. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kosciuszko Posted July 13, 2011 Share Posted July 13, 2011 Wow. Too right, I have no idea where the other thread went to. I think I may have caught the beginnings of whatever explosion caused the thread to vanish from the Board, but anticipation for Dance and the need to make time pass quicker with videos of people playing retro games kinda distracted me. And now all I find is a new thread. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Muttering Bill Posted July 13, 2011 Share Posted July 13, 2011 Well, that's the last time I take a few days off. (OK, probably not.) Things must have gotten hostile with our guest? :dunno: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grack21 Posted July 13, 2011 Share Posted July 13, 2011 It shall ever be one of the great unsolved mysteries of the Goodkind era. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
manmiles Posted July 13, 2011 Share Posted July 13, 2011 I thought the great unsolved mystery was 'Why a chicken? Why not some kind of Mongoose?' Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
goodomens Posted July 13, 2011 Share Posted July 13, 2011 Not sure here either. Discussion seemed to be going well enough. Nothing nasty that we saw, but as always, trusting in the mods. Must have been something we didn't see. /resepct. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Winged Shadow Posted July 13, 2011 Share Posted July 13, 2011 I believe it was because we continued to talk about Goodkind and not the books, which is what this thread is/was/suppose to be about. Our humor usually spawns from books or interview which we then use to do some bashing of Goodkind-the-Writer. In this thread, near the end, it became too focused on Goodkind's personal life/beliefs, mention of other boards etc, which were all red flags to the mods. We got a mod warning and all, so I think that was the reason.There were some funny posts on that last thread, I hope someone saved it :( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Contrarius Posted July 13, 2011 Share Posted July 13, 2011 To put this all on a more constructive path --I haven't read any Goodkind at all. But with all the ongoing bashing round these parts, I find myself becoming curioser and curioser. So -- if I were to read Goodkind, what should I read? And let's break my question into two parts, to make it even more interesting: what is his best book, and what is his worst? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And let's break my question into two parts, to make it even more interesting: what is his best book, and what is his worst?Wizard's First Rule is your standard fantasy book. So it's probably the easiest to read. It gets worse as you go on, and by worse, I mean great material for this thread ;). The worst depends on your taste, but I believe the popular ones are Naked Empire, the last book - let's call it Deus Ex Machina (I forgot the name), Pillars of Creation, The Law of Nines (the unofficial official 13th book of the series). Jeez, there are quite a few and you could argue for any one of them.But yeah, remember, Don't Feed the Yeard. Library or Second-hand if you must venture into the deeps. Also invest in some booze while you are at it, you will need it :grouphug: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alytha Posted July 13, 2011 Share Posted July 13, 2011 What happened to our new friend Goodomens? (ETA: ah, still there I see. Very good)Are we still the Lemmings, now that the Tairy fans are catching up, or do we have to change to the Chickens of Abomination or something?

Jerm Posted July 13, 2011 Share Posted July 13, 2011 well it seems the mods choose dead for our previous thread.They sadly forgot the long and righteous speech about why they chose dead for that thread.I mean, how can we learn from the mistakes if we don't know why dead was the appropriate choice for good ol' XLIX? :rolleyes: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pat5150 Posted July 13, 2011 Share Posted July 13, 2011 As the original Lemming of Discord, it sure warms my heart to see that you guys have now reached the 50th thread plateau! :cheers: Patrick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
