For those of you who aren't aware:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2U0dTlU-QUg&feature=youtu.be
It seems that the world has suffered another tragedy.
In memory of the lives of the people lost during this horrific event, I would ask that on Sunday at 0:300 eve time we have a moment of silence. All guns, all missiles, all drones be turned off server-wide for 60 seconds.
If we can get the devs in on this, all the better. I feel as if something should be done for the victims. |

Thoughts with the family, but you see the thread at the top of the page here, there is a 2 page discussion already.

I actually total endorse this idea. A cease fire seems like a really good way to show some care for the event instead of getting caught up in the Immediate Media Maelstrom. |

i thought the discussion in the other thread was going fairly well, for a game forum. minimal flaming or hate mongering. we tried discussing this event on the WoW forums and it was shut down 15 posts in. perhaps it reflects well on our community we got to over 4 pages.
maybe we'll have totally respectful discourse one day. |

Problem is that discussion of politics is not allowed, respectful or not.
It was clear from the start that this thread would turn into a debate about gun control...and this one will, too.

Threads like these never end well. Honestly ISD Type40 should have kept this one locked because internet people will be internet people and this thread will go down like a fighter shot out of the sky just like the other one, hence part of the reason why I tend to stay away from discussing in them anymore. No minds will ever change. No ways of life will ever change. |

In fact minds DO change, as do ways of life.
But it is a long and lingering process that exceeds the attention span of the average internet user by magnitudes....

Not on the OOPE forums. If you would like I can give you a break down of how every gun thread had read for the past 5 years that I've been around. |

Oh...seems like you need to get out more. Out of OOPE, that is. Take a trip to GD or C&P for a change. 5 years in OOPE have apparently turned you into a hollow shadow of your former self. There is so much more stupidity to be found on the other boards, don't miss it.
And don't forget, since a bunch of verbigerent undesirables like myself were basically moved from GD to OOPE, there will be some change coming our way... It's mathematics, son. You can argue with me, but you can't argue with figures |

That has nothing to do with the fact that this thread will simply repeat itself. But if you must, then you must. Carry on. |

More knife control! Damn those weapons that were originally made of stone about 50,000 years ago!

Tragic yes, but a moment of silence? As a life-long red-blooded NRA member, sorry, its just not my style.
I plan on going to my local gravel pit tomorrow and firing a 26 round salute, one in honor of each innocent victim.
I have a several 30 round banana clips for my Romanian WUM-1, so it should work out nicely.
We all grieve in different ways, after all. |

After the Norwegian massacre, even my 75 round drum wasn't enough.....

Just out of idle curiousity, I looked into the current cost of a 100-round drum. (never owned one because they've always been pricy, and tend to cause a jam when the springs wear out. )
They are now going for around $120 bucks!!! Wow. Gone up a bit since I've last been in the market for them....
Oh, and by the way, just in case anyone is interested, here is a handy link if you are in the market for anything AK-47 related. (mostly semi-auto knock-offs, of course). Magazines, accessories, and plenty of good information. Very helpful community, I've found over the years.

This was a tragic and utterly senseless affair, I think I can speak for everyone in ISD when I say that we're all saying a prayer for the families affected by this.
As such, I am absolutely appalled by the nature of some of the comments in this thread.
