Helped as in being one of the people that most likely tried to get the person to leave.

I'm thinking things went down like this.

Troll saids something.
Snarky comments are made.
Lots of people say "Go back to ENworld"
Some people say "leave."
Others say dumbass s.
Troll starts being a jackass.
Lots of people respond.
Things go to hell in a hand backet.
Threats are made.
Government steps in.

I'm thinking if you did anything it was a snarky comment or you were in the "leave" category.

Why do you think I was involved? I haven't posted anything there in over a year. A YEAR!

I never said I thought you came up with it. When I saw it I figured that it was a mod/admin/staff insult. Based on their low opinion of you.

Oh, don't feel sorry. That guy deserves whatever he's getting. If you have time, read the whole "Ooh, I can haz abuse" thread to see it yourself.

How does this actually work? We don't have anything like that in Finland so I'm curious about this jury thing. They call a bunch of normal people to help in court of law? You can't be excused from this, as it is a civil duty?

Aeson · 12th February 2009, 07:37 AM

The smilie was created by someone and they asked the admins to add it on. Of course they went for it.

Rat, that's one of the reasons I didn't want the discussion to go on here.

Well. Like you originally said, it was a "grudge" and some girl tries to drag you into things over there when she gets involved.

You may not be involved in it directly persay, but for some reason or another someone wants you to be involved or use the opportunity to bring you down.

It's kind of like guilt by association mixed with dramatic stupidity. Like how when if you get drunk and accidentally hit on your gf's friend, she will bring it up when you discover she is cheating on you and try to say you cheated on her first..

Never happened to me, but that's what it's like.

Figures. Seriously.. that sort of thing should be be done with the person it's a not so vailed insult's permission.

We have a court with a judge and then a jury of 12 men and women made up of the peers of the defendant. The lawyers on both sides pick the 12 people from a pool. That pool is made up from a larger pool that is called in. Everyone chosen is done so randomly. I just get the short straw this time.

You can get out it for the right reasons. You can also avoid serving by not being picked for the jury.

It should be a honor to serve. You're helping the legal system stay honest and fair. To many it is a burden they try to get out of. I've been on a jury once already. It was very educational but a little boring. Irony of irony it was a stalker case.

So, from what I've learned from Matlock and Ally McBeal etc. these things can actually take quite a lot of time. Do you get paid for the loss of worktime?

I've always thought that no one exists within todays society that treats being placed in jury duty is a civic duty that must be done and should be done for the betterment of society. I've always thought that those type of people died off before the year 2000.

She didn't do it to me. Others just took it as a chance to jump on me. As soon as I saw her post I knew something was coming.

Did they ask me? Hell no. No one gives a crap.

I suspect this whole conversation will be known over there within a day or so. If not then I count myself to be one lucky guy.

It can and the pay varies. My county pays $25 a day. Some pay $0 and others I've heard pay over $100. Don't pay attention to TV court dramas.

I like to see our government at work. Some time I'd like to go to some local government meetings to see what goes on.

Which is sad due to the lack of professionalism it leads to. Today my GF mentioned she was starting a new shop on etsy and was going to google/yahoo for some artwork and I got on her case for that. Thats the problem with heading into the web buisness... you start caring about crap 95% of the users on the web don't even give a crap about.

I wonder what sort of smiley I earned. Since I don't post there they probably decide to do the dumb ass thing and just decide to have fun at your expense again. It's kind of sad, considering that you would think about of gray beards would act more intelligent then a bunch of junior high schoolers.
