An inquiry as to the Knight's stance regarding The Escape

I have been observing the unfolding events and mass migration initiated by the new group The Escape; my curiosity was piqued as to how an elite, influential group as the Philisophes would adjucate such actions, if at all. I suppose thier myopic plan will come to a head and they will have to initiate the Plan B/Lemming Offensive and wipe themselves out, rescinding action from any external groups. Just a pondering. All the best to the true Knights of Malton. MikhailI don't have to be careful, I've got a gun.Kalashnikov разговор 06:52, 23 May 2010 (BST)

I am not personally involved in operations in that area, but I believe, to put it simply, we've been shooting them. CITIZEN VI 19:22, 25 May 2010 (BST)

Recruitment

Concerning your group advert on the Category:Recruitment page, you may be interested to know that a vote is currently underway concerning the duration of time adverts can be reserved by a given timestamp. Your input is welcomed, and it should be known that if this vote passes you will need to update your adverts on a at least a monthly basis, not a two-monthly basis. Thanks. Nothing to be done! 00:46, 25 July 2010 (BST)

Between you, myself, and some of the others with the Knights, I'm sure we have the situation well in hand. IV PK 01:01, 25 July 2010 (BST)

...a...chain letter? IV PK 03:10, 3 August 2010 (BST)
Uh,... not really. You know why? Because if you don't post it at least five times, absolutly nothing will happen. It's only a chain letter if something bad will happen if you don't post it. - Poodle of Doom 03:17, 3 August 2010 (BST)

Dr Dempsky

Just curious, is this chap one of yours? He claims to be. It's quite possible he is, I just wanted to cross-reference, since I, frankly, don't want to get any of your chaps in trouble (since I think you're pretty damn neat, even if it should not be mutual). -pinkgothic 22:19, 7 September 2010 (BST)

He is, though he is still learning our ways as a student. IV PK 22:31, 7 September 2010 (BST)
Thanks for the swift response - I'll tell people to paws-off, then.
Just for context: I figure my profile invites for you guys to snipe me (I've historically plastered myself with claims of ignorance; but that's simply because I figure there's always room to learn, and since I'm a very casual player, this is unfortunately rare), so I'm not surprised it happened. A bit jarred it would be done while Yagoton is still struggling to rebuild itself and we can use people to up the 'cades, but I suppose in a zombie apocalypse, there's never really a good time.
Either way, happy hunting.
-pinkgothic 22:43, 7 September 2010 (BST)

Hello pinkgothic,

I've set up a wiki page, so should now be identifiable. Your 5 HP were, um, tempting, in terms of low hanging fruit, and in any event, I only had one shotgun round left. Good luck with Yagoton. I'd like to see the libraries restored there. Let's aim for "room to learn" all around. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Dempsky (talkcontribs) at an unknown time.

A Query

As a scholar, I find it imperative to know your stance towards Delta Kilo One Three. If you have no objections, I offer this agreement: if you pledge to take no action within our protected area, we pledge to not seek you out. Our numbers are as vast as our group is historic, and it is to your advantage to work with us.

In short: for as long as you do not attack anybody in our territory, we will grant you asylum.

Leafy Greens 21:50, 5 January 2011 (UTC)

As a scholar, I find it imperative to know what the ratio between 'historic' and 'vast' is. The comparison is rather vague. Veiled threats will get you nowhere. Should we ever find ourselves facing your 'vast' numbers, I doubt any of us will be intimidated in the slightest.
As for our stance in regards to DK13, you are as many groups are in this city: a collection of fools of varying degrees of severity, and doubtless a few wise individuals as well. You are hardly alone in this, and individual members of your group will doubtless end up punished by our members if they do not seek to enlighten themselves.
However, we are far less likely to find DK13 guilty of Factional Crimes if you sever all relations with the Zerger which makes up the 'group' Dragonhead, as well as the zergers who make up 'Bigger Mortice'. We have been known to assault people who give Zergers assistance.
...And unless your group provokes us to the point where we are forced to declare you all enemies of Knowledge, Centers of Learning will provide your members with a safe asylum from ours.
Thank you for your time, Mr. Greens, and Praise Knowledge. --DTPraise KnowledgePK 23:39, 5 January 2011 (UTC)
As our clan's page states, the group was created on the second day after the outbreak. We are the oldest recorded survivor group. Partially as a result, our numbers have grown to the extent that we cannot accurately keep track of everyone working with us.
As for your third statement, I apologise for any confusion. I did not intend for my writing to be interpreted as a threat. I meant that we might assist you if you agree, not that we would attack you if you didn't. I had no intention to insinuate that we would attack you if you did not accept. That is a foolish and lowly tactic used only by the weak and insecure.
Being learned men, I am sure that you will understand where I am coming from when I say this, but we will require definitive proof before disassociation with any group. If you can provide evidence sufficient to convince my superiors, then I see no reason to continue relations with the aforementioned groups.
Leafy Greens 16:41, 9 January 2011 (UTC)
I would have hoped that a group would take allegations of being associated with zergers seriously enough that they would immediately research the matter themselves and take action, rather than waiting for others to spoon feed the evidence to them. Nevertheless, I'll make this a bit easier for you. Searching for "Dragonhead" on Resensitized yields this evidence as the very first result. Bigger Mortice has been recognized as a zerg and has been zerg listed for years now, so the original evidence does not appear to be on the current iteration of Resensitized, but I'm sure you could track it down if you tried. IV PK 23:32, 9 January 2011 (UTC)
I personally would, but I'm not the leader of DK13. I'm just a diplomat.

Admin stuff

Praise Knowledge is currently up on the deletions page. It's not really a glossary article and too short to really justify keeping it in the main namespace. Would you like it kept as one of your subpages or are you quite happy for it to be deleted? -- Cheese 16:33, 9 January 2011 (UTC)

Good Day, Sirs!

Hello, as most of you already know, I'm DevilAsh, the wee annoying one from over at Red Rum. I'm just here to let you know (even though I have access to your forums) that in response to The Big Prick's Mall Tour, we've started up our very own, The Big Red Vasectomy Tour. Our reasoning behind this is simple: The Big Prick are locking away knowledge from the greater people of Malton, and we just cannot allow that. We would love for you to join us, especially since we share the same intellectual pursuit in the matter. All the best, --Ash  |  T  |  яя  | 15:21, 21 January 2011 (UTC)

Great Suburb Group Massacre 2011

Check-Mark-Reviewed.jpg Group Confirmed.
This group was confirmed active. Thank you for your reply.


If you could fulfil this request to further the wiki as a bastion of knowledge that would be splendid.--Yonnua Koponen Talk ! Contribs 22:09, 22 January 2011 (UTC)

Lamport Hills, East Boundwoood, Yagoton, and Millen Hills see a consistent presence of Philosophe Knights. --DTPraise KnowledgePK 16:24, 23 January 2011 (UTC)
Thanks.--Yonnua Koponen Talk ! Contribs 19:55, 7 February 2011 (UTC)

Invitation

Your group is rather difficult to contact. I'd wager your forum administrator is on vacation.

I'd like to invite the all Knights to part take in Section 13's "BRAINS!!!" contest. This is a role play / writing contest just for the hell of it. The winner will be dubbed "Zombie Overlord. The themes will concentrate on UD inspired stories, or Zombie fiction and writers have free reing on their choice of format.

Deadline for submissions is Friday March 26th for the first round.

Please register an account on our forums and check out the thread titled BRAINS!!! for full details, or click the following link to go straight there.

Respectfull,


Jack S13 T! PC 15:03, 14 March 2011 (UTC)

Why should anyone wish to be dubbed Zombie Overlord? We get that sort of accusation all the time. Nonetheless, I shall be sure to submit an item. --DTPraise KnowledgePK 17:11, 20 March 2011 (UTC)

The Forum

Now, usually when the forum goes down due to either scriptkiddies injecting code, or because the payment didn't make it, there's no page to be seen. However, I am unable to access the forum at the moment, being told it is not available, and that my account does not exist. Which of you blackguards banned me? I shall be sure to keep you alive for days before I mercifully let you expire. Return to me my access post-haste! --DTPraise KnowledgePK 17:15, 20 March 2011 (UTC)

I'm being told it's unavailable at the moment too, so I'd imagine something's gotten borked. The area for you guys is still set up and private on our forums, and as always your lot are more than welcome to use it. --Ash  |  T  |  яя  | 17:28, 20 March 2011 (UTC)
I believe we are experiencing our second bout of hacking, as our forum has been deactivated from the inside. We already have a forum on your forums.
http://redrum.scoundrell.com/forums/
Any Knights bewildered and confused, go there, sign up, and PM Revenant or DevilAsh for forum access to the Philosophe Knight subforum. Or just spam their PM box with frivolous requests for obscure Thai cuisine. I'm sure they're lonely over there and will appreciate the attention. --DTPraise KnowledgePK 17:40, 20 March 2011 (UTC)
Or you can PM Perpetua (me) on that forum. --DTPraise KnowledgePK 22:16, 20 March 2011 (UTC)

I wondered why I couldn't log on. I discovered it between the hours of 9am-11am EST(UTC -5) time if that helps. I was on my phone so I figured it was just a glitch there and not that the whole forum was down.. We could all congregate on the IRC as well. on a side note critique the "Remarks by one who encountered MS in a local Library" part of my profile page if you'd like. I all up for constructive criticism.        02:22, 21 March 2011 (UTC)

I can access the board, but it tells me "This board has no forums." Has it all been wiped clean? PXPK 00:05, 27 March 2011 (UTC)

Well I can load members profiles and my private messages but other than that I think its all gone.       00:31, 27 March 2011 (UTC)
Have the knights really come to such an end? This is a true pity. I certainly intend to try to carry on the ideology to my future groups and endeavors. I find it depressing that so much of our internal history has been lost with the forum. PXPK 04:18, 4 June 2011 (BST)
Nay! The Knights have not come to an end. Think of it more as a new beginning for us even more so once we get a new forum to work on. You can join us on the RedRum forums DT gave a link to in the mean time.       04:25, 4 June 2011 (BST)

Drat. And right when I had regained my computer access, and thought of a splendid campaign. Ah well, how do we keep in touch now? Defender Of The Weak 00:48, 19 April 2011 (BST)

We're on the redrum forum and on IRC or at least we used to be..seems both have gone inactive though. There's info on it a few posts above this one.       04:13, 19 April 2011 (BST)
Just wanted to report in that ST is back and around.. would love to see the PKnights boasting the same.. --STTinywhitemask.GIFPK 08:41, 28 June 2011 (BST)
Always good news to see another knight return!       13:14, 28 June 2011 (BST)
i blame it on karma for you guys not accepting me.. gods will and all that rot.--User:Sexualharrison14:13, 28 June 2011 (bst)

Here's a template I made, figured some knights might like it. It'll update when ever the page loads.

ENVY

I am a bit ad odds finding out Golam has PKed one of my crew. I know the truce was made a while ago and with Treebob at the helms but I respected that (as I was part of the mayhem) and ignored any Philosophe Knights on my path. Should I reconsider and introduce you as hostile again ? (whats up with the font here :P) --Murderess 01:42, 9 August 2011 (BST)

I am afraid I have no record of any truce. Indeed, Treebob has been known to unilaterally declare “truce” without any notice to the other party. Might I ask for a copy of whatever gives you the impression that there was any form of diplomatic relations? His Imperial & Royal Highness, the Archduke d’Œuvre 
I unfortunately do not have "records" of this. It was back in the days when we use to hang in North Blyth and were hitting a lot of PKers group as they were coming at us as well (first). You guys ended up calling a truce with ENVY. I recall this very well as I took you off my "black list" and you were in the area and never bothered with us anymore... until now. We did stay there for a long time and you guys went on your merry way. I was not in the talks back then but its very clear in my mind. Not sure what you want to do about it. Your call I guess. Just trying to establish whats going on here. --Murderess 03:03, 9 August 2011 (BST)
Do you, perhaps, have a record of the kill? His Imperial & Royal Highness, the Archduke d’Œuvre  03:19, 9 August 2011 (BST)
Again unfortunate, I whip my crew to screenshot but get not much results. Until now that I screamed again... All I got was : Here's the PKer that got me Golam. He killed this guy : Boris von pwn Not sure what to tell ya... talking to Treebob now and he is looking for records... --Murderess 03:39, 9 August 2011 (BST)
I now have the emails that were sent back and forth from "William" to Treebob way back when. See your forum for details... well, let me in :P --Murderess 03:55, 9 August 2011 (BST)
I wouldn't put much stock in what these chumps tell you on this page or in their forums. They are consummate liars. Despite multiple lessons taught by TZH these asshats have continued to fail all of their "Awesomexams". Basically, they will jerk you around for days, attempt to run you in circles, and then still shoot you. Take it from someone who has had the intense displeasure of bearing witness to their asshattery for 3+ years, across the game and multiple forums. You're better off shooting them, and using an ignore app to block out what they say in game. Is it text rape? No. But it does something almost as bad... listening to them can actually make you dumber. It will lower your REAL LIFE IQ. It happened to one of our members, poor guy can't do math anymore. Remember, those who shout loudest about how smart they are, often aren't. Especially when they use yuppie memes, worn out gimmicks, and lame RP to do it. Just sayin'. Oh, and also, all Fulloshit Knights are welcome to a heaping helping of my frumunda. BALLS TO THE WHALLS bitches! --Dhavid Grohl 06:38, 15 November 2011 (UTC)

Standard policy

Is it standard policy for you to leap from windows? I would of thought suicide was above individuals as well learned as you.--ZIPO/Talk/◆◆/CAPD 03:47, 16 November 2011 (UTC)

What our enemies "would of" thought is rarely of pressing concern to the Philosophe Knights. It is precisely the uninformed opinions and irrational ideas of the ignorant that the Philosophe Knights seek to correct.
Furthermore, the Philosophe Knights rarely - if ever - disclose what their "standard polices" are. Or if they have standard policies. Thank you for your time, and Praise Knowledge. --DTPraise KnowledgePK 17:09, 16 November 2011 (UTC)
I hope these policies you don't like to talk about cover accidental death, cos you lot are prone to it an awful lot. ~ Kempy “YaketyYak” | ◆◆◆ | CAPD | 18:42, 16 November 2011 (UTC)
What dose your retort even mean? On the surface it appears to be dusted with wit even if it is ever so dull. In actuality your comment makes no sense what so ever. This is a perfect example of the ignorance we aim to help you with. Brother BD PK Talk PST 19:34, 16 November 2011 (UTC)
