      @Monkey:

      D.aelthsaar banished to a hell where he's trapped in a maze of low easily crossable stone walls that don't even reach his waist. But due to his pride he can never admit they are crossable…

      As stated by RobbyBevard, you're allowed to do as you wish because you're daddy's little girl.
      That doesn't mean you're right in your ways.
      You, sir, are just a protected idiot that would keep in line if he couldn't hide under his mum's gown.

      @MiyamotoMusashi
      It's ok, not naive, at least I get a reaction that otherwise wouldn't have happened.
      You see, the mods have arrived at least, otherwise it would have been ignored like in other threads

        Let it go. No one should be this butthurt on an internet forum for getting their opinions squashed (to the extent of making jokes about someone's mother. C'mon you have class or what?)

          My theories haven't been squashed since they are theories, just like MK ones and have not been proven yet, neither mine nor his.
          And I respect MK theories, unlike him that has not respect for other people's theories.
          I haven't had class, you're right, but it was to get the attention of mods, that were somewhere else when I had been repeatedly insulted, and got a fair infraction, that should have been at least a temp ban instead.
          I purposedly pull the rope to see how much it can be stressed here, and realized that the rope has different resistance for different people, and that's not fair.
          Robby's answer has been quite silly actually: "he has been here longer than you, etc…", if the registration time is so important, I wonder why registrations are still open, maybe it's to have older members bullying the new ones, which is what I see, and not only in my experience.
          Now, it doesn't matter how bad theories can be, no one should be entitled and allowed to insult others or be denigratory or reply with aggressiveness.
          It's not being butthurt, it's about fair principles of policy and nice coexistence.

            Actually this is like literally my eighth account precisely because I didn't keep in line for several years, but eventually I won the hearts of the next gen of mods and also mellowed out to the current version lol.

                  Some times I think that we should have a thread called "Hilarious post" in the General Threads area, so we can keep track of all the stuff that happens around here

                        I have some random theories which I'm sure have been proposed already, but I feel like posting them.

                        Seems that this is the 'bitch about dickish members and the mods' thread. Maybe I got lost somewhere, but I'll just throw my theories out anyway.

                        1. Fujitora has some sort of earth-based logia (say, rock)

                        2. Dalton, Pell and Chaka have SMILE-derived Zoan powers.

                          just crossed my mind few days ago. (hope its not a repost from other member)

                          1. kizaru was a brutal killing maniac marines. and because of that he's prohibited to act freely without order.
                          I saw his happy reaction on mariejoa when volunteering for dealing with supernova on tenryubito incident, excitement when accidentally destroying the magrove and miss-use the black den-den mushi to call sentomaru.
                          and when he ask for permission to kill every pirates to sengoku at marineford war.

                            Cause you know… It's not his job as an admiral to aid the celestial dragons or anything, and the rest of the navy weren't actually trying to harm anyone at the war. Nor is he smiling all the time, even when a supposed haki monster is pointing a gun at him.

                                He was directly shown creating strong pressure against the thugs in the bar to create that hole. It wasn't like he was controlling the rocks underneath.
                                Plus the color coding has been central to the admirals and their powers (blue = ice, yellow = light, red = magma). And in Japan apparently gravity is associated with purple.

                                    I've always kind of thought kizaru displays all the typical traits of a stoner. For example he was completely absorbed in the explosion he created at sabody. Also he was using the wrong den den mushi for a very long period of time. It doesn't hurt he wears sunglasses everywhere either. Intentional or not, his character seems to at least resemble a stoner.

                                        I've always kind of thought kizaru displays all the typical traits of a stoner. For example he was completely absorbed in the explosion he created at sabody. Also he was using the wrong den den mushi for a very long period of time. It doesn't hurt he wears sunglasses everywhere either. Intentional or not, his character seems to at least resemble a stoner.

                                        Just look at his face, that dude must feel so light and shit

                                          He was directly shown creating strong pressure against the thugs in the bar to create that hole. It wasn't like he was controlling the rocks underneath.
                                          Plus the color coding has been central to the admirals and their powers (blue = ice, yellow = light, red = magma). And in Japan apparently gravity is associated with purple.

                                          That's definitely what I thought too when he made that hole. But … that seems a little like a super-limited version of Blackbeard's power, doesn't it?

                                            He just likes his job, what's wrong with that?

                                            I mean he's a dangerous one. he's more lazy than kuzan since he didn't interested with fleet admiral position while basically pika-pika power are more powerfull and could move faster than magma and ice.then he seems so happy when the incident happened so he could go there and why should he ask for permission to kill anyone at marineford.

                                              So I have this theory regarding the Space Pirates shown in Enels cover story. Perhaps it's not a perfect theory, and it may sound a little random, but I think the Space Pirates are actually robots constructed by Vegapunk and sent to the moon by the World Government. The reason they seemed like robots (or cyborgs, or whatever) to me was by looking at those barometer-like things on the chest and arms of the space pirate in this page http://mangafox.me/manga/one_piece/v46/c441/1.html. Now, since we can pretty much assume that the moon and the winged people play a big role in the OP world, and that they have something to do with the Void Century, and that the Gorosei pretty much know everything about it, maybe they ordered Vegapunk to build these robots and send them to the moon for investigation, since we can see in these pages that they were digging something http://mangafox.me/manga/one_piece/v46/c445/1.html http://mangafox.me/manga/one_piece/v48/c461/1.html. Now that Enel got there and messed up their plans, maybe this will be brought up in the story, perhaps at Enels re-introduction or something (if this theory is true, of course).

                                              I got this idea while re-reading the series, and paying a little too much attention on the cover stories.

                                                tech is just a human vacuum cleaner,he is the center of gravity to which things are attracted to.
                                                fujitora just increase (and decrease too?) the normal gravity of the planet towards his center.

                                                in short,teach can attract you to him,but can't squash you on the ground like fuji does..also..probably his gravity is not enough to bring down an asteroid,his fruit seems more short-ranged

                                                  Actually they were made before Vegapunk, by another scientist. Just read the full coverstory.

                                                            Remember that Teach is darkness, so that pool of darkness is technically Teach himself.

                                                              Well, I was actually talking about those fox-looking things that were there before those little guys arrived on balloons.

                                                              If you actually read the coverstory you'll see they are space pirates.

                                                              Against facts there are no arguments.

                                                                    The same WG doesn't trust Marine at all, and that's why they have the Cypher teams.

                                                                        While IlanZ thought he was first referred to the Spaceys (little robots). Then later tried to point out that the fox-like creatures ARE Space pirates and not simply robots called space pirates. By the "If you actually read the coverstory you'll see they are space pirates." comment meant that if one read the titles to the pages, we can see that Oda identifies them as space pirates and not as robots.

                                                                        Also one page in particular shows that its a space suit and not robots. Notice how the hand look like they got mittens on, plus there is aline on the head going from the chin to under the hat ...its a suit.= [hide] [/hide]

                                                                                  To think both Spandine and Spandam, assigned to sensible information are 2 guys that are easy disposable.

                                                                                  So Garp and Sengoku are the ones that act under the ideal that weak people must be protected and Marine offers that protection.
                                                                                  They're stubborn to see the Marine as the only way and strong ideals often blind people.
                                                                                  They both refuse to see how dirty things got, that is way worse than not seeing, and make the burden on your conscience weight more.
                                                                                  Speaking of Marines we have Kuzan's example about how people that is not in denial and questions Marine's approach to justice can leave.

                                                                                  It's obvious that one day Luffy will make that curtain made of lies fall, it will be funny to see people's reaction.

                                                                                        Which it does. But they are obviously already well aware the the marines are not always the shining heroes

It's a safe bet the WG does support the greater good, they occasionnally use evil methods, but down the line it's something people like garp and sengoku have to overlook.
                                                                                          They judged for themselves that staying with the government would help the greater cause.
                                                                                          Considering the WG has already been in control for 800 years and is established as the dominant figure of authority, working for them is the best option to ensure global safety (or atleast working towards that goal).

                                                                                          Veni, Vedi, Vici.

                                                                                                        I think you misunderstood the words he said to Tashigi, in which I suppose he intended "don't accept blindly other people's ideas of justice, but make your own".

                                                                                                        Regarding him, the case-by-case justice is NOT a proper idea of justice, storywise it wouldn't make him interesting.
                                                                                                        Until now we saw him addressing what he clearly saw as the "major evil", Crocodile or CC immediately pose a threat that was way bigger than the threat Luffy would have posed.
                                                                                                        Though imho it is too much to label him as the "case-by-case justice" guy.
