Author Topic: Terrains - give Skuzzy a break (Read 1418 times)

Max · « **on:** September 20, 2003, 11:09:24 PM »

Given the fact that I work nights. I'm usually in the MA on most mornings, Eastern time.

Every Friday, mid-morning Skuzzy changes the map. In doing so, he usually gets a hundred questions, which he patiently tries to answer. He also gets a flock of whiners, no matter which map is due to come up. griping about the upcoming terrain map. This past Friday when Pizza was due in rotation, a couple of folks went above & beyond in terms of *****ing about their' dislike for the pizza map.

Folks, give the guy a break. If ya don't like the terrain, go fly H2H or play Quake, or whatever it is you do when you aren't in the main arena.

Yeah I was there and I agree with you 100% bro!

Indeed.. No sense in whining about something that isn't going to change. Skuzzy can't please everyone, no matter what he does.

Disagree with you Skuzzy cheerleaders. There are many rotations HTC can try. 1 week of pizza isn't cool.

Agreed.

The problem, as I see it, is that whereas there are folks like us who are prepared to do something else while an unpopular map is up (I personally don't care for small maps) there are those people who are so greedy that they're not prepared to let the other folks have their fun. These selfish people want everything their own way all the time.

Ahhh... you pay my subscription (or 1/4 of it to make up for the Pizzacrap) and I'll shut up about it. Deal? Otherwise, stick to reminding people to keep thier comments respectful. YOU may like H2H, the CT or Quake, I don't. The Pizzacrap ruins Aces High (for me, and quite a few others I know) for 1 week a month, I'll continue to make my thoughts on the matter known, as long as HTC see's fit to keep it in a 1wk rotation. Don't like it... edit your ignore list. Don't like it in the MA?... use the squelch command.

Provided you pay ¼ of my subscription to compensate for the small maps week. Each arrangement cancels out the other, and we arrive back at the status quo we have now. OK, it's a deal.

Status quo? When did I ask you not to comment on the small maps... or go play another game during thier rotation?

i don't agree with the original post. those pilots pay their monthly subscription of $10 per month, like me; so, they can ***** all they want about the pizza map.

if we didn't *****, the game wouldn't ever improve.

I'm paying $15/month. Does that mean I'm getting to choose maps?

Guys I think you missed the point of the original post.

Voice your opinions, as a customer you have the right too. However when voicing an opinion or complaint you need to be professional and show respect to an employee when doing it. That is DmdMax point. I am sure all of us have been on the recieving end of a person going above and beyond what is acceptable behavior complainng about something at work. Its the same here .. voice your opinion but don't berate, badger or harass. I was not there so have no idea but that is DmdMax point here not the validity of one map or another. Or whether you should not voice your opinions or your right too. Its how you voice them and treat another person.

BINGO! Ghostdancer hit the nail on the head.

The fact is, most players like or dislke certain maps. Last year when the player base expanded, folks were screaming for new and larger maps. Now they're availabe and in rotation. I don't happen to be a big fan of Pizza myself but dumping on a guy who's just doing his job, and berating the company he works for doesn't make the world a better place.

Well put Dmax!

I'm not saying you can't complain, I'm just saying be respectful about it. You would want your customers to treat you with respect right?

Not trying to flame anyone. Just put yourself in Skuzzy's shoes that's all. Not saying you have to agree with the decisions HTC makes, just be more professional about it.
