[quote=Heyitsjiwon] See, you say that this isn't snark, and you use the guise of Bismarck in an attempt to qualify your statement (which is a weak attempt because you are implying that you completely understand and think just like Bismarck). However, the need to qualify any statement has significance. If your comment isn't supposed to be snarky, then why do you need to qualify it unless it is? Also, I'm getting pretty damn tired of your veiled threats and it's starting to feel like borderline harassment. Overall, the last comment that you made is completely unnecessary. Now, if you wanted to RP as Bismarck and say that, then there's the IC. This isn't the proper place to make a statement like that. [/quote] Damned if I do, damned if I don't. Leave off the qualifier, you say I'm being snarky. Add it, now it's evidence of snark. These are not veiled threats. You'll forgive me if I assumed Japan wanted to emerge as an effective state rather than daimyos battling for dominance again, but I won't make that mistake anymore. No more speaking threats, just [i]executing them[/i]
