The longer you are on this planet the more you realize that the way people behave in games, be it golf, baseball, checkers or flight sims, tends to illuminate the way they behave, whether be at work or life in general.



 





How true,  :aok

Semp: there are red guys out there in real life. You could go find them too. There's prolly even a few near you.
They're casting their bait over there, see?

You may possibly be the most clueless person I've had the displeasure of encountering today.  BUT the day isn't over.

It seems those that defend shade vulching are either doing it themselves,  have a squad mate that is/was,  or are simply warming up for the mental gymnastics it will take for when they actually do decide to shade vulch.

It's a game.   Don't cheat.   Is that hard?

Do this many people really care about this?

Actually Juggler, I think this does have some effect on the community.  IMO the achievement system was put in to add a new way to challenge players.  By people vulching shades, or trading kills with buddies to gain achievements, I think it takes away from the entire validity of the actual achievement system.  But that's just my opinion.

Pffft.   Not caring would mean you wouldn't post to defend it.

Where have I defended it. Where has it been defended?

Making fun of you for being similar to a bunch of spinsters is not defending anything.

lol... ok. 

You're either buds with a shade vulcher or you've picked an odd topic to continually troll.  Either way, boo hiss to you sir.

You people really need to find a life and quit concerning yourselves with looking up everyone's kills/deaths. It's their $15 (or $30) let them do as they wish. It shouldn't have any effect on you.

Really?  Has this had any effect on your life at all?

... can someone point me to published rules of this game and perhaps the actual rule that was broken that would warrant such a post in the first place?

While it is annoying when people don't play your way, it doesn't mean your way is right or wrong as it is your $15 and you are free to do as you wish just as this person is doing. No harm done to anyone...

I am with silver who cares?

I do not care if people game the game.

So much anger over something that is not a big deal.

Some things are simple and this is one of those times.

It is not a big deal.

Sound familiar?
