Why is that I have seen a lot of angry posts about AkaRai? I don't see anything about his posts that would be offensive. So why do most people hate him?

It's a long story. Asking in Tea's thread would be a good way to start, mostly because I can't explain it very well, and they can.

He was part of the Paladins until he started to cause fights with fellow paladins (especially me and Trajedy)

Because he's a complete jerk that can't even acknowledge any viewpoint other than his own.

And throws hissy fits if you outargue him. He is one of those people who will never admit defeat even when he's wrong.

He's also done a great deal of trolling that has offended many members.

Well, technically, he does nothing wrong by the terms and service agreement of Gaia. However, he walks the line constantly. Hes mean to anyone who doesnt agree with them, calls them a "fanboy" and insults many people who really dont deserve it.

One thing that I have seen him do several times is keep pushing buttons and indirectly insulting people, then gets upset when they retaliate directly. Basically, hes an a*****e. An intelligent, well spoken a*****e.

Well from what I've seen until you get him to PM or an instant messenger. Then he resorts to fanboy-esque flaming.

I find it kind of funny how he has to throw the word "fanboy" in your face...then flame you... Not all fanboy's are a** hats.

No offense but from all the posts I've seen from him I don't see anything that stands out as "jerk". But I do think he needs to make sure his hardcore intelligence doesn't make him come off that way.

Now, that's something that has to be seen to be believed, it doesn't matter to me anyway because I'm not taking his side or anyone else's side of who is againest them ( and taking sides in situations like this are always much worse, IMO ).

I've never seen many post by AkaRai, but I've read accounts about his Anti KH oppinions. Maybe I should remove him from my friends list... sweatdrop

Oh, quite so.

He proclaimed in one post that he was a 'grammar-nazi'. He said that, not me.

So, after responding to what else he had posted, I added something to the effect of 'You're not much of a grammar nazi, because you have no idea how to use commas' because he didn't. My senior year English teacher drilled comma usage into us, so I -know- where they go.

He then proceeded to call me out and say if he was using them so poorly, why didn't I show him where he was in the wrong. So I quoted an entire post (and his posts are quite lengthy) and corrected the grammar in the entire thing.

He then yelled at me for being off topic, even though I had only responded with what he had asked me to do. He didn't aknowledge the fact that he had improperly used the commas, only called me a "stupid little b***h".

(By the way this is all in his "Shut up about Kingdom Hearts" thread, around page 115 or so...)

The problem with his commas was that he put them wherever he felt like pausing or taking a breath in his senteces (as if he was speaking) and commas just aren't used that way. They have rules on where and how they are used in sentences, and it's just conveniant that they are usually where you take a breath when speaking.

Eventually, this self-proclaimed grammar nazi ended the argument by saying something like "I don't agree with the rules of comma use, because I think they're stupid, so I don't follow them"

Even on such a trivial matter, he couldn't even budge the slightest inch and admit he was wrong. He lives in his own world, with his own rules, and if you don't agree with him, he's just a complete a*****e. He's a fine person if you bow down to him and treat him as a god, like he apparently thinks he is.

Hm... Too much pride in himself? Or he's just outright full of himself..

Either way, that is most likely his weak point, and because of his pride, he just doesn't want anyone pointing these things out like how he's a hypocrite.

Not the best guy to have in the VGP if some smart guy outwits him.. and not only that, but it'd be hard to support him because there's no doubt about it that he's flawed here and there. x_x

I was kinda wondering the same thing. I really liked his rant about everyone posting Kingdom Hearts threads even though there's like 4 official ones e.e;

I apparently haven't seen him do anything a*****e or the likes, but I am not as active as some people are. =3 So I guess until I see for myself how much of an a*****e he is, I'll keep what little opinion I have of him. =/

But I do sometimes see the "intelligent, well-spoken a*****e" bit in him. I guess I just need to read more posts e.e;
