Agreed. As long as I've known him he's had a rather level-headed outlook on rl and our virtual world we play in. :)

All clever analogies aside, the Late War Arenas are still difficult to get into.

Our Squad opted to go into LW2 instead of trying LW1 as its always full.    Now LW2 is always full, so we cant link up to fly together anymore.

Its a real hassle.  Can you please add more slots into the most popular arenas?

That's the way to keep customers happy, tell them to leave and not come back. :rolleyes:
I'll tell you how that story usually ends though HT,

Try again.

How about, the loud and nasty patron who's being a jerk to the waitress and disturbing everyone else in the restaurant finally gets booted. The remaining patrons applaud, go back to their meals, and enjoy the once again pleasant atmosphere.

That pleasant atmosphere and good service keeps bringing patrons back.

The jerk may tell all his friends how crappy the restaurant is, but the product and atmosphere are good enough to speak louder for themselves.





EDIT This came out rougher than I intended, but I was staying inside the restaurant metaphor deliberately and the comments DO apply to some players. But HT does not swing the boot often or arbitrarily -- he puts up with a wide range of....interaction styles. ;)

As all things do, the game has changed. If you do not adjust to the changes, you will not have fun....and you will not be fun to be around. With all respect, you have to make a choice to either adapt, or to go elsewhere if you cant make the adjsutment. Thats not arrogance or unresponsiveness -- it's just how life is.

Age sometimes has little to do with mature conduct on the internet.

Thank you for re-stating my point; 'fun' is relative. It's presumptuous to assume your idea of fun is "the" solution for anyone else.

If that's the case then you suggesting someone elses idea of fun is lame is presumptuous as well?

HiTech


When I go out to eat, I've never selected a steak house restaurant, sat down, ordered from "their" menu, then mid-way through the meal, have them start serving serving chinese food instead of steak without notice, AND then blame me if I don't chew the food the way they want me to.
