Old F@RTS

[DREDIOCK]

With age comes wisdom, at first you were a cocky little sheit when you first came into this game but you have seemed to figure it out that's good trait of a quality young man. Wtg

As I said earlier

Ahh but there is one certainty. One thing the elders have on their side. One weapon the hard headed "dumb kid" cannot defeat and ultimately cannot ignore or escape. And that thing is time. One way or the other sooner or later the "dumb kids" eventually get it. 

And to another point. to the experience vs expertise debate

While it s true experience is no guarantee of expertise

You dont get to be an "expert" without also having experience. Period.
 If you did. West Point Grads would immediately be appointed Generals

you know what the funny thing is and I am pretty sure you understand this.  I am not sure why hitech didnt ban  all of your squad.....
 


semp

really? I would ask if you are serious but I know you are....I take great offense to this statement....

never have I drove someone from this game...as a matter of fact many people have come to me for help over the years of me being here....


I guarantee I have helped far more people in this game then you ever will.

I will stop here before I really tell you what I think of your opinion. 

[Triton28]

actually it was you guys as usual who started throwing numbers around.

Since Bustr was involved and Tilt spoke with more eloquence than you're used to, I'll paraphrase how we ended up with numbers being thrown around:

I think experienced people do more harm than good when they suppress new ideas of those who might be taking a fresh look.

I agree with you, Tilt.

Oh yeah… well if you guys are so smart how come you ain’t rich and famous and own your own company?  Huh?  HUH?!?

Ok dude… I’ll flop it out.  <insert numbers and experience here>.

lol… Ok Bustr <insert numbers and experience here>

So you see mr. semp, numbers only came out because Bustr asked for them.  If that upset you I suggest you take it up with the verbose one himself.

and yet you accused me of messing up a pretty good convesation by throwing numbers around.

What is this emotional mush?  You just screwed up a fairly interesting conversation with your sales figure fish story/Changeup fixation so you could end up sobbing on the couch?  Nothing in the above has anything to do with the challenges owners face when balancing the tried and true vs. the new and innovative.  All you've done is proven yourself a fairly poor troll with no idea when to walk away from the keyboard.

Oh, and we all thank you for donating some subscriptions to people short on cash.  I'm sure you're the only one that ever did that.   

 

that's what makes it so funny about you guys.  all of you can be very successful at whatever you do and you can throw figures around.  but if another guy comes in and mentions what he does then it must either be a fluke or a lie.  or as changeup mention a one hit wonder.

This one time I made $1 by selling a glass of lemonade.

You're rationalizing.  You trying to measure up to Changeup is not the same as Tilt and Changeup responding to Bustr's sarcastic and overly wordy challenge of their managerial experience.

It never ceases to amaze me that almost every single player here:

Was the quarterback in high school

Married the prom queen

Drives or did drive the coolest cars ever made

Is a millionaire

Has never failed at any endeavor

Would be a natural pilot the first time they ever flew IRL

Has a genius level IQ

This sounds like bitterness.  Don't confuse hubris with truthfully answering someone who mildly called you out.  It would make you sound bitter and disruptive for the sake of being bitter and disruptive.

[Arlo]

Don't confuse skepticism for bitterness. 

I'm a doctor, I'm a lawyer .... I'm a movie star ..... I'm an astronaut ..... and I own this bar ..... 

[Hungry]

Here we go again the vocal minority thinks they know best, as a group its the same people over an over again, what are you guys less than 5 or 10% of the paid player base?

Ignore them.....they are displaying all the traits of being old f@rts ....which is what this discussion is really about.....Actually I think the percentage of the old f@rt player base in the game is quite a bit higher.....

If I meant skepticism I'd have said that.  It was bitterness.
