My new code of honor
« on: May 15, 2015, 05:21:46 PM »
Not that I expect anyone to care, but I'll be returning to the game as Fate at the head of July, and in doing so, wish to recreate myself, so to speak, in an image I feel comfortable living with. To that end...

1) I will no longer use 200 to do anything but compliment other player's good play, when earned. When I have something critical to say, I'll bite my tongue. Which means I'll probably chew it off by year's end.

2) I will never vulch a base. I can land kills easily enough without scraping the bucket for easy victories.

3) I will never jump in on a fight where it's already 2 allies vs 1 enemy or more, assuming the allies have the advantage. If it's 1-1 and a teammate needs my help I'll be there. If it's one guy picking from alt I'll climb on up. But I'm not going to be 'that guy' who steals his own teammates kills by ganging on the weak who are fighting for their life already.

4) I will not respond to rage PMs or angry messages on 200 with anger of my own. I do, however, reserve the right to send live rattlesnakes to your home if you piss me off.

4) I will never fly a pony. ever  :neener:

Here's mine!

1) I will use 200 exclusively for the comic entertainment it provides.  Well, and to insult people.  Not those who deserve it, just in general.

2) I will vulch a base at every opportunity, and laugh while doing so.  Vulch & Laugh, it's almost more funner'n point'n & laugh'n.

3) I will pick anyone, any time, any place.

4) I will always respond to rage PM's.  Usually by laughing or making fun of those in a rage.

5) I will fly the pony, almost always.

6) I will shoot your chute out of the sky if you bail.  Then I shall point & laugh... again, because I already made you bail.

7) I will have poop-piles of fun... when I come back, again.  I might even try to be nice.  :devil

Respond to PM's on PM.

Often, the reason for a PM is to not burden the rest of the arena.

Answering a PM on 200 is like the fat lady in walmart talking loudly on the phone.

She wants everybody around her to hear.

Don't be the fat lady in walmart.

With the exception of the 200 messages. I've been flying that way for years.

Or often the PM is to be a jerk to someone and not want the comunity to see you being a jerk. Kind of like you did to me a few nights ago. When you call someone out for that on a public forum like 200 or country you are not the fat lady in walmart you are just a dude who is asking for said jerk to man up and show everyone how much of a banana he is.   You used the same analogy then too but you still wouldnt say what you said to me on a public forum

I bet you have made the mistake of not putting a towel down on your fake leather vinyl covered computer chair playing that way. Must have been like grandma's house on a 90 degree day with all the clear vinyl couch and seat covers when you were a kid in your knickers. Little chubby thighs sticking to the vinyl.

Just don't start a contest over the longest nose and ear hairs with pictures Arlo. You will scare new subscribers into becoming teetotalers.... :O

Oh!! my eyes, my eyes, my sanity, the horror, the horror......my shrink bills......is that what Arlo really looks like?? :cry

I will say it in person if given the chance.

I don't say anything online I won't say face to face.

The problem is that you joined into an attack on me by someone who is parading around in a new identity because he has been banned.

Don't throw in with the incorrect and you won't be corrected.
