Hey guys, this seems to be getting heated up and I have had a couple of complaints in my inbox about this story... just so you all know, I didn't approve it and Dan posted that he didn't either... AFAIK, only Ian, Matt, Dan and I have admin rights to approve stories... Matt is away and hasn't been on since last week and this was approved after Ian left, so I'm not sure what's going on...
I guess if no one likes this story, ignore it... I'm sure Brian didn't mean to start any controversy...
thanks dave...i think alot of people probably assumed that you approved it...
No offense, but I would never have approved this in it's original or current form... it's too controversial...
how is it controversial?
Quoting from the top of the article...
"* Is Iraq the new King of the North?
* Or will the new KOTN be someone who reacts to this war? "
Sound kind of speculative, but I know you asked just to kind of get people thinking. It's kind of like asking "Do you think the events of 9-11-01 marked the start of the Great Tribulation?" Seeing how some of the folks reacted on here, plus the messages I got in my inbox, stirred up some controversy.
ohhh, what happened to "time will tell"? i hope no one thinks i'm running around insisting that i know who the kotn is...
No.. not that.. I see where you're coming from, but foresaw how it could have been misconstrued.
what? do you think you're some kind of prophet with powers of foresight?
YES I DO, your going to get beat by a salami some time in the future!
Ha ha... no, just my friendly neighborhood Spider-Sense was tingling...
are you kiddding me.. peoepl ereallt got heated up about this stuff.
thats ridiculous . i'm sorry whoever you are. talk to me. geez. brian didn't even say anything. come on . he was just saying..i dont know. talk to me. geeez.
well it's like that and that's the way it is HUH!
that brings up a new suggestion...something that logs who approved a news story (unless ian already has something like that that only HE sees)
