A Critique of IchibanCrush's "Macros"
Posting on this thread, IchibanCrush was asking for critique. In no way, shape or form, did he ask responses to explain. By stating a simple opinion, a person can give a concise statement supposed to “dicking around� with a paragraph to end with a simple “yes� or “no�. IchibanCrush asked to be judged and never asked for reasoning. After the moderator Tomoh posted, IchibanCrush responds by saying “Thanks for putting a reasoning behind the judgement(sp) (blind "no"s(sp) tend to just scream "whiner" or "troll", depending on the case).� This implies that he wants a reasoning to why his “macros� are irritating.
Before hand, the writer’s response about “whiner� and “troll� is wrong. A “whiner� would be that of a person who complains. The “troll� is a person who patrols an area in search of a person or thing. Just saying “no� in response to a question does not mean a person is: A. “whining� or B. “trolling�
IchibanCrush starts his list of “macros� by numerical order. His first “macro�:
1. /p You spoony(sp) <t>!! [Provoke](too bad I'll never have to provoke a BRD...)
tries to be clever in terms of use, yet the pun is very brainless. He most likely got the idea from the user Celeras. In which it was in his signature for a extended period of time.
His second “macro�:
2. /p Rock on, <t>! [Stone]
/point motion
(note that motions are animated while the spell is being casted(sp))
the originality is lost its humor. This has been done to death by many other users in the Final Fantasy Online world.
IchibanCrush’s third “macro�:
3. /p +Oh lord, please blessth thine sinner <t>+ [CureI]
tries to play on Christianity, yet is not well put together and is not original in concept.
On his fourth “macro� Ichiban states:
4. /p A toast <t>! Here's to the atom bomb! [Water]
/welcome motion
(I find that the welcome motion looks a bit classy on a hume, though a taru's hump would be funnier)
this plays on the atom bomb “incident� of World War II. World War II was a grievous time in which two hundred thousand people lost their lives to the atomic bomb. Many people will find it offensive to honor the atomic bomb with a toast. Adding the “/welcome motion� is making IchibanCrush seem as a bigot.
His fifth “macro�:
5. /p +Behold, <t>, the power of JEBUS!+ [CureII]
Jebus most likely refers to Jesus. The user might have not known that it really means:
trodden hard, or fastness, or "the waterless hill", the name of the Canaanitish
city which stood on Mount Zion(Josh. 15:8; 18:16, 28).
which is identified with Jerusalem. This “macro� is not humorous, as it is simple and dull.
The sixth “macro� consisting of:
6. /p +Gather around, sinful children!+ [Protectra] in 5 seconds
he tries again to play on the Christian theme. The spell “protectra� has no affiliation with sin.
The seventh macro:
7. /p May I have this spindizzy(sp) dance, <t>? [Aero]
/bow motion
is a play on the phrase “May I have this dance?� The use of emotion was correct on his part of relevancy, but actual “spell� has no affiliation to dancing. It may have a somewhat spiral looking effect, yet by adding the “spindizzy� doesn’t constitute to relevancy.
IchibanCrush’s eighth “macro�:
8. /p Boku wa PUNCH DRUNKARD!! [Combo]
may have some affiliation to a Japanese rock band, but is lost to many North American players who are not familiar with the group. Thus it looses its effect and leaves the readers lost.
On IchibanCrush’s second to final “macro� he states:
9. /p Sleep now in the fire! [Burning Blade]
refers to a line in a rock song. The pun is horrible.
On his final “macro�:
10. /p ~666 Oh dark lord, please plague this <t>... 666~ [Bio]
his religious theme is rather dull. It is hard to continue further to critique this.
This Essay was to show the cumbersome of his “macro’s.� By leaving all this out, IchibanCrush would not get on people’s nerves by filling the “chat log.� As previously stated, “this would piss me off soooooooo(sp) bad.� Would have been easier then writing this full essay. Without asking a person to explain on an issue, a “yes� or “no� response would be the best and quickest response.
