How can we stop these idiots from posting those stupid sex site posts? I
can do my own sex site search, I don't need things like that in the Iron
Maiden newsgroup!!

No offense, but I really want to know this.
You attend the 43rd best college institution in the United States, yet
your English and grammar skills are that of someone in elementary
school. I am assuming you are an international student, so Penn State
meets their quota, and well versed white students like me are denied
acceptance. Go figure.

Hey, I'm not a native English speaker, I'm from Turkey!! It's only my
second year here, I guess that explains my grammar. About the quota thing,
let me assure you that Penn State didn't let me in for the sake of having
intl. students. My standardized test scores kick ass (higher than most
Americans' in my program). About the "no offense" part of your message, it
IS kind of offensive. I hope you are kidding about the "white student"
thing. BTW, I'm white, too, if you want to know (so I guess they don't
have anything against whites), but I still don't like the phrase. That
part of your message implies that if you are American, you are white!!
Doesn't sound very "politically correct" in the "land of affirmative
action," right??

As far as affirmative action is concerned, this is just another screw job on the

Do you know haw much is the tuition for an international student?
An international student has to pay three times more than an American student.

I guess it was offensive to Oytun Palas, and it wasn't meant to be,
after all, it isn't his fault he got in the school. I guess it's just a
personal thing I have against affirmative action, and the fact that
American institutions often feel either your skin color or where you
live is more important than the work you have accomplished.

against white males. I'm not gonna deny the fact that people of other
races, sexes and religions were treated as less than equals for many
years. That in no way is an excuse for white males to now be treated the
same way. I personally, as I'm sure the same is true with Clairvoyant,
had absolutely nothing to do with slavery, women's sufferage, race
riots, Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. or any of the other racial/sexual
problems that this country has had. Affirmative Action is just a
band-aid over a gaping, pussing sore, it's doing absolutely nothing to
solve the problem, it just attempts to cover it up. Don't try and
justify it, it can't be justified. There is no reason why a company or
school should be forced to maintain a "minority quota". Quite simply,
the best students and workers should be the ones that get the jobs,
scholarships, whatever, and that's not happening.

you're gonna pay out-of-state tuition, unless your home state has reciprocity with
PSU. So you have to pay 3 times as much as an American Student, so what? Do you
pay state, federal and social security taxes? Are you helping fund the college
educations of criminals? People who barely made it out of high school? You're the

I completely agree with the fact that sometimes affirmative action admits
stupid people into schools or jobs just because they are minorities. I've
seen examples of it here, and I know what you are talking about. I was
just upset at clairvoyant's comments because he has a stereotype that every
non-american-white student is plain stupid and admitted only because they
are minority, international, whatever. If I believed I was stupid, I would
say "you're right, I shouldn't be here." However, I'm actually one of the
people that raise the program's GMAT average and things like that. I'm
just as smart, if not smarter than the average person in my program. So
when clairvoyant accused me personally, I just couldn't take it. I hope
you all see my point, and I'm sorry the IM newsgroup has been cluttered
with race issues and other non-relevant topics.

Well,let's take A look at what nazi-fagen,said..
Clarvoyant(jim) said..
to one Oytun Palas...

You attend the 43rd best college institution in
the United States,yet your English and grammar skills are that of
someone in elementary school.I am assumming you are an
internatinal student,so Penn State meets their
quota and well versed white students like me are denied acceptance.
--------------------------JIM
First of all ,what does this have to do with Iron
Maiden?
2.He is attacking someone just because their
name isn't "John Smith'!
3.He's calling A all international or minorty students (people)
stupid.Saying that because
they are A minority,it was the only reason they
were accepted into the college.
4.He calls himself A well versed white student
who was denied to make room for one of those
dumb colored people.
This nazi thinks his shit don't stink,well,I think
it smells the worst!! Z-Hail!!Nazi-punks!!

Whatever your opinions I don't think that people should be picking on
others about this - take it up with someone at the university, not students
who have done absolutely nothing wrong. As for picking someone up about
his grammar I think that's going a bit too far - I wish I could speak
Turkish as well as Oytun can with English.

Also, I don't think he was complaining at having to pay more - it just came
out as part of his *defence* about being at the university.

Sorry about this - I just didn't think it was fair.

I strongly doubt Clairvoyant has ever paid tax either...
But hey, I think it's a great idea to wall America off, cut
communications
and sit and wait till it disappears into the pacific ocean.

Land of the free, home of the brave... my rear end boy!

Land of the terminally stupid degenerated meddling relifreak
nazi's is more like it.

Call yourself an American? I bet your ancestors were just
intruders, fortuneseekers or parasites that wanted to
live a better life on the continent that belonged to
te real 'native' Americans.

Go hide in shame!

Stop the name calling. I don't see the rest of the world opening their doors
for foreign students. Japan, now that's a good example of a "open" society.

I wouldn't promote Clarvoyant"Jim" to
Sandwich artist until he proved he could spread
the mayonaise on the bread first. I doubt he
could.That's A requirement at Penn State.

Well, this coming from two obviously *un*educated fools who go by "Led
Head" and "Zero Boy" - (who, like a pussy, had to change his name to
Monday Night Boy so he could show his stupid face in this newsgroup
again). Since the name change he has behaved somewhat better (like a
good dog that got rapped in the nose by myself and other IM NGers).

No Led Hed, I am actually 20 years old, and attend one of Pennsylvania's
(and the US's for that matter) most recognized colleges. I don't care if
you are 50, I can match the wits of a moron like you anyday. I told the
original poster that I phrased my posting in a bad way, and that I
didn't mean to insult him. The issue was dropped long ago. Then you
showed up.

I never said it sucks. I simply said that my opinion has changed after
