So, since this place seems to have cooled down a tad too much, here's a good controversial discussion topic: which has more power today, the pen or the keyboard

What if we say neither? Because neither has more power necessarily. Certain people rely on certain items. For instance, I write better with the pen, yet I type faster with the keyboard. However, the pen lets me organize my thoughts which was why I was checking out that tablet pc *awes* ahh yes, that thing was awesome.

Perhaps the reason the boards have cooled down so much is because the topics are rather boring and the owners are overpowering.

I'm gunna go with keyboard because you basically need to have keyboarding skills in today's world to get a job.

Technology is the way of the future

Go back to the old ways dude. we wont be able to do any thing that has to do with real work. if you ask me people are just to lazy.

The pen allows the mind to work more than the keyboard, because computer radiation stimulates the nervous system. I prefer to write poetry, etc. with the pen, but essays, stories, etc. with the keyboard.

OK I want to be a garbage person or mail carrier. I do not need the keyboard. I repeat - do NOT need the keyboard.

Oh yes, shifty you put the wrong emPHAsis on the wRong words on your rules page for the IRC chatness plus you never corrected your spelling error

Perhaps we would rather listen to knowledgeable sources that know their spelling and grammar.

Spelling things the right way the frist time makes people listen to you. cool people have good spelling and grammar.




First is spelled wrong Nirvana, and cool is not capitalized.

A keybord is good for fast words and beating peoples heads in, while pens are good for inking and stabbing people to death.

i find it annoying when ppl correct my spelling...

...[subtle hint to stop telling people to spell right, blitz]

well it was slightly hypocriteical...

P.s. i dont care about spelling

holy [censored] That wayyyy faster than me.

Whoa... I can only type 60 wpm... how the heck do you type so fast or was that an exaggeration???

how DID you get that fast?

I would like to know that too

betcha its from ttl or alot of typing(heehee i wont lose this bet)

ugh, ttl or mavis beacon >.<

both very evil

yea, I hated them... and atrt is just as bad.

we must kill all typing programs... unless it involves undressing an anthro (i know that was slightly out of line...)

I would love to kill them all
(ps are you still trying to keep you name last, blitz)

yes

well, for any of you that have my handwriting, the keyboard is a miracle

Hehehe

besides, would the internet exist w/o the keyboard?

Yes! indeed true point case closed you can't argue wit that (well you could but it would be illojical

I believe that people rely more on the keyboard but that you when you write something, the example of a letter to someone else, it is much more effetcive and gives across the feelind easier.

Key boads cost alot a times, but will always be the best

I also think that's it's hard to understand exactly how someone feels through email.

Outlook doesn't have smileys

Exactly, besides I still find it hard to get the whole message when I email. It's my least favorite way to talk to somone. Then comes mailing, then calling, and my absolute favorite is talking to someone directly.

Emails are good if you have to tell people bad news and you know they might explode if you tell them in person

Yeah but sometimes it's better to tell them in person so that when they do explode you can calm them. Don't want anyone to kill themself now do you?

OH Wahh... srry

ok Blitz, keep away from sharp objects.

no one dies from an e-mail... but... the internet is occasionally more convenient than a conversation... you can come onto the forums at 1:30 AM when you get bored...

Yes. I just love large forums that have members from all over the globe and people are on all night.

Well, FreedomsNet is currently mostly an American enterprise, though I know for a fact that we do have some international membership (I would certainly like to have more membership both from abroad and in general, though...the more voices and opinions FreedomsNet gets the stronger it is)

Well you might get your way shift. I know of a place that I can bring in a few people, although it might be a lot and it might mean that some of your mods would actaully have to do their jobs. What say you?

I say i love my job! well its truly up to shifty so i shall wait for the verdict.

I promise you it doesn't involve anything illegal.

I like illeagle

I know but I'm sure that shift wouldn't like that.

well... heheh im not talking

Yes you are.

yes im not no i am purple wtf let the key boar b awsome

Shift eh? I wonder who they mean...

anyways, I'm always watching (either in person or in the board logs), and as of now I don't have any basis to demote Blitzkreig (sorry D3, but facts are facts). So unless you've got some evidence you haven't seen to present against him (which would optimally be done via PM, not on a board thread)...
