But nowhere has he acted like a jerk to you! The one instance you stated was after you had told him to screw himself twice. You had also acted like a jerk before that, and the only evidence you had was completely incorrect on multiple levels. Not only was the video fake, but it wasn't a Katana. I think the op was allowed to be slightly sarcastic after you had acted like an asshole for a while back on the basis of something that was completely incorrect.
No, he's allowed to be sarcastic as you were wrong the entire time while continuously telling him to screw himself and calling him an idiot. Y… moreou are the monster. All you do on this forum is go around insulting people and making completely incorrect statements. All he has ever done is be polite to you, and even after you were a complete asshole the worst he did was say umm... Apparently saying umm... deserves the death sentence in your mind, right?

Spike, I wanted to thank you for defending me when you clearly didn't have to. I truly appreciate it and can't thank you enough. You went out of your way to prove that I wasn't a complete degenerate. You're a good person and you have my complete respect (if that means anything to you). Thank you spike1. Also I hope you didn't get in trouble because of me.
I don't know what your problem is, but it is certainly not OP who is in the wrong here. You don't have to resort to harassment to prove who is right/wrong in an argument, especially after another Mod asked you all to behave earlier in this very thread.

Nearly 95% of all her comments here are trying to get back at that Jayden guy. I think she just signed up not too long ago too. Already causing trouble, lol.
Thanks, it's ok though, it's more the fact that illogical people get on my nerves lol . You really are a really good member though, and in an otherwise rabid community it's good too know that you exist

Thanks Blind, you definitely helped and it seems like she wasn't having a good day. I appreciate you intervening and ending that. Also she wasn't much of a bother, after I realized she couldn't be reasoned with I did my best to ignore her (I think it's a her). Again, thanks Blind.
Not sure if you are replying to me, but yeah I do apologize as i may have gotten a bit heated with ILoveClementine. In my defense I did try to… more stop as stated in a previous post but ILoveClementine continued to reply to me, even saying that i wasn't replying because I was wrong. I shouldn't have continued though, and if you want to temp ban me(or whatever warning system you have here) then I understand.
Edit: just realized you were replying to ILoveClementine, oops lol
I wish we could see who someone had replied to, that would be a cool feature

I done some home work of the crow bar, there are some long ones that go 60 inches, I should had been more detailed but there are some that are made in long length that even can be used for walking sticks. I mention the use for the crowbar to be use for stabbing then over the head whacks, the ideal was for the crowbar to be used to shove the sharp end into the skull of a zombie rather to be bashed over the head. Using this method you are not using to much energy in a fight rather less, point in the matter I was trying to make was that a quick stab into the head is enough to kill a zombie, also I love these debates lets do lunch !
Haha, I love posts that are very thoughtful as this one. It truly makes my day. Thank you for taking your time to post this. Sorry about that,… more I'm digressing. Anyways, the crowbar could be my zombie apocalypse weapon any day. It is not only useful as a weapon but also as a tool. A crowbar can not only provide you with a strong steel bludgeon for zombie skull busting, but it can also be used to open locked or heavy doors, shift heavy objects, and other tasks which the crowbar was originally designed for.
Though some minor drawbacks with using a crowbar as a weapon is that crowbars are meant to add leverage when prying things open, this means that during their production they are not tested for balance and are more difficult to swing than many other objects. Another disadvantage to the crowbar is it's length. You never want to be too close to a zombie. Other than that, I believe I'll have quite a fondness of crowbars during the apocalypse. Again, thanks.
I love a good debate and thanks for the challenge. It will provide me a good opportunity to showcase my debating skills. Now, you're contended that you could use the crowbar as a spear for skewering the brains of zombies. It's true that this is possible, but it is also not a tactic that would be very effective. I stated in my opening argument that crowbars are not balanced for swinging, this is because their center of gravity is near the middle because it is made of a single, solid material and is fairly uniform in shape. This means that while you're holding the hooked end all of the weight of the crowbar is being felt between 7-10 inches beyond the hand. This weight means that more effort needs to be made in order to keep the crowbar leveled for stabbing which tires the user out quickly. Even though a longer crowbar increases your distance to a zombie, it also decreases your accuracy and chances to successfully pierce the eye cavity if you want to penetrate the skull. By the way, lunch sounds great! I'll buy.

No, it's one of the weapons that are useless in a zombie apocalypse because katanas are made to pierce organs, not skulls or bones. Even a simple baseball bat would be a better choice.

From a video in a similar discussion somewhere in the previous posts.
Anyway I'd imagine that some, if not all, bladed weapons would end up lodged into a zombie and make it hard to pry out. Blunt weapons is really more practical to use.

It sounds so easy, but if you want to fight several zombies with a Katana you'll need the right technique and that's the real problem with Asian weapons...you need to handle them properly...

It's not realistic though, well then again the undead are roaming around so I guess who am I to question the reality in that. Seriously though… more I stated why I think a Katana wouldn't be an inefficient weapon on page 2 but if you're still not convinced. Katana's new metals cannot cut through bone and it would likely break the blade before even cracking the skull, now, marring and skinning the zombie, that would happen, but it would in no way kill them unless you get a perfect pierce through the eye cavity, which is hard to do with such a long blade. You are much more likely to be bitten when slicing into a zombie when your blade breaks in two and they collapse upon you. This is not a last resort weapon, it's a weapon that's going to get yourself killed. If you still are skeptical then watch this video with a real Katana trying to cut through bone. The bone actually chipped his blade. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NTcdlvsPELk#t=19
Takes a lot of strength to wield a hammer, I know from oil rigging in texas. So folks picking hammers and axes better have some good arm strength or you be worn out in 2 swings.

Crowbar naturally, its a weapon and a tool into one, sure you can say you want to use an ax or sword or whatever, the point is, a blade needs … moreto be sharp and that takes energy and work to sharpen the blade not to mention make minor repairs. While the crowbar is nether need of such, not as truly heavy, but blunt and long lasting. Also there is a handle at the end where you just push into the eye socket and down she goes. No matter how you say it the crow bar is a must have melee weapon secondary have at best, no need to keep it repaired if only used for killing zombies, one by one mind you, the crowbar is not made for handling hordes I'm afraid. If you are in danger of being surrounded by a horde your dead any ways
As for a trusting allies I would have to say I want Molly I mean sure it was Carly at first but some bruised ego bitch named Lilly capped her and left her for dead on the road. Okay before I am cast in names for the obvious reason … [view original content]
Weapon: a carbon copy of Luke's machete.
Person: Luke. Me and him would be on the same page based on every decision I've seen him make in episode 1 of season 2.
Cannibal carls right, the thing about Katanas, is there's a lot of shit stainless steel abominations out there that look like Katanas but aren't. Michonnes is probably the real thing.
Either way, edged weapons need a lot of maintaining if your using them to slice through skulls. And since destroying the brain stem is the only way to put down a walker, that blade is going to take a lot of damage to it's edge.
Even high quality steel can chip. with prolonged stress.
Plus, people greatly underestimate the skill required to make clean, consistent CUTS, not slices on a moving target that fighting back. It's all about edge alignment and it takes a lot of practice. I got into HEMA a few years ago and yes, someones who's trained can make it look easy, but you have to put the work in. You wouldn't pick up a baseball bat for the first time and expect to hit it out the park. It's no different with combat skills.
Especially WEAPON combat skill, where techniques if not executed properly can be dangerous, even fatal in the case of live steel sharps, to the user.
People also underestimate how exhausting it would be to take on a group much larger than six or seven. A well made, hand crafted in denmark 700's era accurate replica Viking sword like the one I use only weighs 2.2 pounds, but the impact of hitting things with it jars your arm and you can quickly tire unless you put in an hour a day on the post.
I think you'd be better with a blunt weapon, a crowbar, yeah that's perfect, dual use.
I'd say a Crossbow for silence, A Sig .9mm or a .45 for a side arm, a crowbar with a couple of modifications for hand to hand and a ka bar for last resorts. Maybe a .308 rifleor a shotgun instead of the XBow in some circumstances, such as against other people or clearing buildings.

I don't mean to annoy you, but I think it's best if you just let it go ._.
Seriously the OP needs to be stopped. He is trying to be the nice guy but really hes horrible on his comments. Dont let the nice guy charade fool you.

Not true. You just have to cut the head off or destroy the brain. There are many different way doing so with bladed weapons.
It sounds so easy, but if you want to fight several zombies with a Katana you'll need the right technique and that's the real problem with Asian weapons...you need to handle them properly...
Don't worry, I'll learn.
A real Katana blade cost 10,000 and up. This some crap he got at the mall LOL.
Takes a lot of strength to wield a hammer, I know from oil rigging in texas. So folks picking hammers and axes better have some good arm strength or you be worn out in 2 swings.
Land shark gun from Armed and Dangerous game. Cool weapon for Nate because Nate's cool.
Crowbar! If you play Half-Life, you'll get why this is a weapon of choice.
Machetes FTW!
