Guest sola'lor Posted August 1, 2007 Report Posted August 1, 2007 Hello everyone. I'm need help with a group that I am trying to start. This group is for all those people who live moral lives and have good values. I figured an LDS forum would be a great place to start since LDS members have such good values that guide their lives. THe purpose of this group is to unify and bring together people from all around the world who are want to helpour society by promoting good morals and values. This group will be good way to strengthen our society and help out in an ever sickening world.The website is here:Mandalorian HomepageThe message board is here:Mand'alor Message Board Quote

Guest sola'lor Posted August 3, 2007 Report Posted August 3, 2007 And you are sure you are correct in the identification of your religion in your profile?My religion says that it is mormon. If not is should. I fail to see how what I have posted would bring doubt upon my religion conviction as a member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. Should we not promote good values and morals in a our increasingly evil world? Quote
pam Posted August 3, 2007 Report Posted August 3, 2007 I went to the link. I'm sorry but I'm afraid I got really strange vibes from it all. A group that has clans and High Lords etc etc...work for the group but get paid in some kind of money I've never heard of? No thank you. Quote

All I saw was some fluff about doing good and not breaking laws to do it, but nowhere that I saw was there anything about what you actually do about anything. And this language you're making up? What, Klingon wasn't good enough for you so you had to come up with a new one? Come on out of the basement and feel the sunshine on your face, your skin's getting too pasty. Quote

I've been to the UK and I've lived in the Philipines for two years. My fiancee is from the Philippines and I am working on bringing her here. I actually got quite tan in the Philippines. There's lots of sunshine there. please in the future don't jump to conclusions simply because somebody is interested in linguistics.So you are saying that I should have more detail of what the Mandalorians actually do. I don't know which version of the website you saw. But I completely redid the website today.What would I need to do/mention/etc. on the website to make you interested in joining? Quote
Guest Yediyd Posted August 6, 2007 Report Posted August 6, 2007 OK..I'll bite...What the heck is a Mandalorian? Sounds like a fruity musical instrument. I went to the site...briefly...it creeped me out, too! Quote

It's a nice webpage with bright colors. To me it seems friendly. Quote

It's a nice webpage with bright colors. To me it seems friendly. Honestly? It was that image that you have at the top...the Avatar, I guess? It looked kind of like a Satanic image...just the vibe that I got...I admit that I did not take the time to read or stick around at the site and that I could be WAY WRONG...but...I am tired and lazy right now...and I did not get a warm, fuzzy feeling when I went to the site....sorry, why don't you explain it more here? Maybe the site just overwhelmed me because I'm running on empty right now...I made the mistake of drinking a diet soda before I went to bed tonight...I should know better!!! After a hour of trying to fall asleep...I just said, "OH Heck!!! I might as well get up!!!" It is 4:20am as I type this...Now I am too tired to go to bed...I have to get my son up in an hour and a half for school!!! I might as well just stay up at this point....anyway...all that to say, I didn't give it much of a chance...too brain tired right now...sorry. Quote
Guest sola'lor Posted August 6, 2007 Report Posted August 6, 2007 A satanic image huh? Wow. I never would have guessed that.A Mandalorian is someone who has commited themselves to following the principles and values of the Mandalorian culture. They must apply the Code of the Mandalorians in thier daily lives. They must also live by the Resol'nare, or Six Actions. A Mandalorian is someone who want to improve themselves and improve the world that we all live in. Quote

I don't get why if you're LDS you'd want to add a yoke to the gospel standards and covenants we currently abide by. Quote

pam Posted August 6, 2007 Report Posted August 6, 2007 Well let's see..according to Wikipedia...A mandalorian is a culture of warriors. They were once involved in the Great Sith War. They attacked and raided the the Empress Teta System. They are ranked among the best fighters in the galaxy thriving on battle. One good thing about the mandalorian community is the rare metal that is found only on their planet. Hmmm if I could get my hands on it I could sell it on Ebay. Sounds alot like Star Wars. Oh wait....they were featured on Star Wars in "Return of the Jedi." Seems rather contradictory that to join the Mandalorian community would be to promote peace and harmony...when the history of the name is about battle and destruction. In a fictional kind of way.

Gabelma Posted August 6, 2007 Report Posted August 6, 2007 It's Charley's husband writing this, yall can call me Gabelpa. I had a question for Sola'lor, as a bit of a Star Wars fan. Have you done any work with Eric Schroeder? He did a lot of research and guessed/improvised the Mandalorian alphabet you use in the Mando'a Language Dictionary. His work on the Mandalorian alphabet. I'm sure George Lucas has his own alphabet master guide and languages. After all KOTOR does have snippets of spoken Mando'a. Quote

Yes the fictional Mandalorians in Star Wars are a warrior race. First this group I'm doing isn't the fictional Mandalorians from Star Wars. We are a real group in a real world. Secondly, If you think trying to promote this group as a bunch of warriors who go around fighting in wars would help get more people to join then I'll take it under advisement.Gabelpa: Don't know Eric Schroeder. The Star Wars Mandalorian language was created and is being created by Karen Traviss.Actually there are some other groups that are trying to do the same thing I am. I've been in contact with a couple of them. One has over twenty members. Quote

Just stay true to your LDS beliefs, and don't get your head chopped off by some Jedi wannabe LOL. Quote
pam Posted August 7, 2007 Report Posted August 7, 2007 Why not say you want to play some kind of "peaceful" dungeons and dragons game. That would seem more realistic to me. All the rest of this just appears extremely strange to me. Quote
