B.net interviews: Camnator!

Where does Camnator come from? [quote]I come from this planet we all inhabit. I don't see the point in labeling myself or acknowledging imaginary lines on a map. I don't assign value to my accidental birth location. I currently reside in the state of Washington, though I was born in California and after ten years there I moved to Maryland. Another eight years in Maryland and then I moved back to California to get closer to family. After a few years there Washington really appealed to me, especially now that this fine state has legalized cannabis, a breakthrough I honestly never though would happen in my lifetime.[/quote](I actually asked him this hoping to get a story behind his username but you can't be too hard on those poor libertarians) How was your life growing up? (And how old are you now?) [quote]I believe I had a very normal life with concerned and encouraging parents, and I always had a drive to learn as much as possible. I've been poor, I've been financially stable, but no matter what I've always been happy. I've thoroughly enjoyed my life. No matter how little I've had I could stare up at the night sky or look at a simple tree and get lost in amazement and wonder. Nature is a very beautiful and awesome existence. I'm currently 22 years of age.[/quote](He's also related to Adalia Rose... too soon?) What's the story behind Nutella and its relation to "big booties?" [quote]It's really just a bit of a nod to one of my favorite Youtube prankers, Vitaly. Ever since I saw his "Don't look at my boyfriend" video he had given me a lot of great laughs. That was probably six months ago. He really amazed me when he actually did go to an event and began placing Nutella on some booties and licking it off.[/quote](He is mesmerized my this man) When did you realize you were an anarchist? Were you anything before that? [quote]As I said in the beginning, I don't label myself. My views are mine and mine alone, I'm not sure why someone wants to put themselves into a category. We are all our own entities capable of forming our own views. I've never called myself an anarchist, though surely I hold similar views to it. I think I realized this when the Iraq war was just completely senseless and unnecessary. Throughout high school I called myself a republican, but I always knew I kind of wasn't. There were plenty of things I hated about republicans, just as much as democrats. I think what really started to get me thinking is when I began listening to George Carlin. He was a genius comedian while at the same time speaking the truth and getting it by in a very entertaining way. If you listen to him, you'll probably already know he was a very wise person. Then I began listening to other great minds such as James Randi, Penn Jillette, Michio Kaku and plenty of others. Until this time, I held my views but wasn't too outspoken about them. I tended to stay away from political debates and while I felt like I knew a decent amount to form an opinion, I never really did any deep research. Then one man got some fire in my belly. He spoke eloquently and passionately. He was highly respected no matter what show he went on, and to this day I've never disagreed with a thing he has said. Judge Andrew Napolitano. He is what got me motivated to really look into as much as possible and start worrying about the future. He made me want to change the world as much as I can.[/quote](Ex-republican? Did not see that coming...) After the NSA scandal was revealed to the public, it gave many conspiracy theorists a sense of validity in their arguments. What secrets do you believe are still hidden by the government? [quote]It's still a question I ponder. I listen to the occasional conspiracy theory, but I never take it seriously unless there's some compelling evidence or something that gets me thinking and has me saying, "Well, this definitely could not have happened this way." I'm not saying I immediately buy into any theory, I simply remain skeptical and have unanswered questions. I try to keep an open-mind. I can't tell you how deep the rabbit hole is. Some things sound just out of reality, but after the Gulf of Tonkin, Operation Northwoods, countless abuses on our liberties, nothing the government does would surprise me anymore. Some things sound appalling, but people need to remember, the TSA groping an eight month old baby IS appalling. Basically what I'm saying is, question everything and don't believe anything the government or the media says right away.[/quote] Define liberal: [quote]Just going off my head? I'd define liberalism as someone that sees a goal and will do almost anything to achieve it. They may or may not have the best intentions for everyone, but genuinely want to make the world better overall.[/quote](Keep in mind he's given... different definitions before) Define conservative: [quote]I'd define conservatism as someone that wants to stay within their means and be more isolated. They may not want to harm anyone but inadvertently do so. They may or may not have good intentions other than for themselves, which is sometimes necessary. Instead of seeing a goal they see what they perceive as reality and accept that. Both liberals and conservatives can be productive, and both can be dangerous.[/quote] You have made several posts referring to Halo Wars. Will you play with me sometime? Also, isn't it ironic that you even play Halo Wars since it is a command and control kind of game? [quote]I would LOVE to play Halo Wars sometime! I've always been a fan of strategy games, and they are just that, games. Games are a method to live out a fantasy for entertainment. The key is knowing the difference between fantasy and reality.[/quote](As you can see, he has an infinite amount of damage control) Worst poster on Bungie: [quote]That's a tough one, as this site shouldn't be taken too seriously. I think people are often times joking and are much more real in real life, if you get what I'm saying. I think things are always a bit embellished online, because it's a tool we can get our core ideas across on. I think I could hang out with anyone on this forum, find mutual ground on something, and have a great time in some way. If I HAVE to say, I think the overall worst poster may be that Fox News fellow. How dare he not enjoy my booty threads! Other than that he rarely ever posts things that matter at all to the topic, which I don't see as a big deal at all. Let him stew and hate all he wants. If I don't like what he posts I'll ignore it.[/quote]("You changed your name to Fox News? I didn't know you..." - Only some of you will get this reference) Best poster on Bungie: [quote]Myself, of course.[/quote](Hold back your butt hurt Flood, seriously I already know what you're typing) Kyuun, Harlow, Elite Buddy, and Jay walk into a room with you. They want to fight. Who wins: you or Sapphire? (You have to understand that this is his top four shit list) [quote]I'd go Gandalf, Batman and Morpheus all over them![/quote](Definitely gay) Opinion on the Bungie.net webteam and the 2013 site update: [quote]Does webteam include moderators? We've certainly had a history, but I have no ill-will towards anyone here at all, believe it or not. I think most of the moderators are intelligent, courteous and genuinely kind people that want the best for everyone, which is no easy task and I'm sure it's very frustrating from time to time. I think what they should always remember is this is a community many people, myself included, enjoy a great deal. They've achieved something great here, and I applaud the webteam and new site a GREAT DEAL. I think this is lightyears ahead of the old site. That's not to say it's perfect...[/quote](Was hoping for more butt hurt) Do you consider yourself an anarchist capitalist or an anarchist communist? [quote]Well, of course I think true capitalism is the way to go and progress. I think people should keep what they earn and spend it where the want. I think competition is the driving force not only to progress, but also to fairness for everyone. The problem everyone has with anarchy is they instantly correlate it with lawlessness. I don't see it that way at all. I see our natural rights and freedoms being just that, natural. Sure, it's something bad people won't want to acknowledge, which is why we HAVE to fight for them. Everyone should want to stop any evil at any cost. People say Somalia is anarchy, I don't think so. I think it's just a chaotic mess. If America became anarchy overnight, would we end up like Somalia? I don't see that happening, because I can go out and see there are a lot of good and caring people out here. People that will protect others not because they gain anything personally, simply because it's the right thing to do. I've always been a person of strong principle and a will to act against anything wrong. I feel obligated to protect anyone from any threat, no matter how I feel about said people. I see it as a civic duty. I think more people should have this due diligence.[/quote] And last but not least: A police officer shoots a dog for licking Nutella off the outside of a bag of weed dropped on the ground by a vegetarian anarchist trying to keep the government from taking his military-style assault guns. But the police officer that shot the dog has a big booty. What do you do? [quote]Kick that dog's corpse for attempting to steal Nutella, restrain the officer or use lethal force if necessary and plow my face in that booty and return the cannabis hoping for the person to share.[/quote] And there it is, Flood: Camnator.
