No one is asking you to change a thing. It is you asking Shane to stop taunting and me to abandon the legacy of AW. You can go on doing what you do for eternity, I couldn't care less. But telling us what to do and how to play the game earns you the retort of a madman... for that's all you deserve.
(I honestly can't really reply to the meat of either of your last two posts because they're so downright idiotic and fill with contrived points your that trying to make I honestly feel like I'm talking with frothing madmen)
You can't and haven't replied to the meat of our posts because you have nothing substantial to reply with.
I stated that "clubbing seals" was something dating back to the early days of AW, and presented a list of long time, highly respected players known to have done it. My intention was to use this to explain Shane's taunting, albeit a bit extreme.
You responded telling me not to invoke the past because AH is not AW.
This seemed fair enough at its face value. But upon reflection, I came to realize that I have every right to bring up the legacy of AW, and use it in AH if I wish. But you have no right to stop me.
Then you responded:
You're too self absorbed and self justifing to see anything else but your own narrow, convoluted p.o.v.
A bit nasty, but even if true, the irony is that this is a perfect example of your behavior. For it is you that is making demands about arena behavior and exclusion of AW past. Neither Shane nor I care what you do here or in the game; we are simply responding to what you and others have said. It is you that is self absorbed and self justifying about what you consider appropriate in AH and this BB. It is you that is trying to change us, not the other way around.
How do you justify telling Shane not to taunt, and me to forget AW? HTC can do the former, if they wish, but no one has the right to do the latter. To try is just basically wrong.
