I am completely tired of all the incessant arguing on these forums that seem to be here, solely for arguments sake. Most of these involving one or more individuals that can't seem to get their head out of their rear ends. There are multiple people I see that are guilty of this. The worst part is that much of this goes on in the wishlist section of these forums. Constantly, when there are good discussions and/or suggestions, they constantly get derailed for the lulz or end up starting some huge argument which mostly ends up becoming a battle of two egos that refuse to leave their screen and go do something productive.

Yes I know it probably doesn't make much sense, but that is what is currently going through my mind that hasn't slept in over 40 hours (horrible insomnia combined with insane heat, here in concord) :eek:
-
For some reason I thINk I need to be INcluded IN this thread before the lock.
-

-
YAY! I made it IN before the lock! :banana: :banana:
-
can someone please tell me why this would be locked? i've read over the rules but see nothing that I am doing wrong. I will pull it down if someone can tell me what is wrong
-
Well its not wrong "yet" but given that title it is almost 100% that it will go wrong.
-
save your $15 bucks and go to wal-mart and buy a AC

in?

Since you asked...
4- Flamebaiting, flaming, being abusing, being disrepectful, trolling, spamming or posting to incite or annoy is not allowed. If you cannot make a positive contribution to the thread, then just stay out of it.
You really can't see how the opening post might might be a tad bit in violation of rule 4? Once you named names, it's (IMO) most definitely applicable.
<S>
-
That's what happens when you have clashing personalities :noid
-
agree with the piglet :aok
a little more courtesy to others would be good, just because you disagree with one thing someone else has said doesnt make it ok to go all out and abuse them. Ive gone too far in the past, pretty much just because ive had a crappy day at work, Ive also apologised for doing so.
also I see plenty of disagreements about things which are eventually resolved with facts and data. I dont however see many posts along the lines of "fair enuf, I was wrong and you were right." debate is a good thing, even if you start off on the wrong side of it, because it increases understanding for everyone. :cool:

that doesn't fit, since i'm not trying to troll or flame. if it was for being disrespectful, look all around this board and you will find plenty of it and noone calling people out on it. Im not trying to get a reaction out of anyone, just trying to show my observations. And i know that there has to be AT LEAST few people here that agree with the OP. And if this is seen as verbally abusing someone, then that is just sad

yea, ya are. you directly mentioned akak, and nemisis. you know one of them will be along shortly..........
-
I'll go IN
-
but the intention of my original post is to hopefully get it through to them that they need to honestly stop with the whole picking fights on the interwebz thing. And if I have any success, they will realize that and not try to fight back. That was my intention, not to say something and then have a countdown towards the moment they come barreling into this thread ready to attack. I'm just trying to attempt to have some peace on the boards.
Also, towards all the people In'ing this thread, why do you have the need to do this when 3-4 have already done it in a thread? It detracts even farther from the topic, which yet again has happened.
-
yeah you might want to edit out the names, change them to xxxx and it wont violate any rules (anyone reading it will know who you're talking about anyway...)
btw any IBTL posts after the first one are just spam imo :rolleyes:
-
thanks holmes, its good to know that I have at least one person that is willing to back me on this whole point
-
I thought this was about crappy toasted waffles. I'm going back to sleep.
Oh, and I own all of you!!! :airplane:
-
You're right Spaz. Does an arrogant ego not generaly indicate lack of experience? I think so.
We all need time and awareness to grow up and split our arrogance into ego and self confidence. Keeping and sometimes displaying the self confidence is still good. Leaving the ego part behind closed doors for the most part is also advisable.
:)
-
As I have mentioned in earlier threads, there are a few who fill the voids in their dull lives attacking the less than knowlegdeable. They generally have been at the game for quite some time and are exhausted by people who want to post without doing the research or putting the time in to support a comment with tangible and credible data. Call them bitter and mean. There are many more who of those in the same sage on the stage category who provide direction in a much more mature manner. I gravitate to them and flat ignore and posts by the donkeys of the bbs.
Bottom line, remember you are always on the higher ground when you dont follow the same path. In the ma if you catch youself saying damn nub, is the same in here with silly posts.
-
Tired of them?
Never.
Ack Ack and Nemesis, beware.
Damn, I'm hungry.... :noid

+1 OP... Pigslilspaz I can't agree with you more!
EVERY post that I read/participate in, is hijacked in some way, shape, or form----
Whether it be:
1. Posting random pictures that is not relative to the topic.
2. Quoting an entire message and putting a :headscratch: under it.
3. People posting just to post... if you can't contribute to a particular topic, then don't post at all!
4. Dragging the thread completely away from the topic on to something else. If you want to do that, POST A NEW TOPIC.
5. You mentioned the wishlist--- blow my brains out. People will specifically shoot your idea down just to do so, even though it will improve the game for some and have no negative effect on anyone. See ".dot command for away and return" as an example. I don't need people telling me I'm lazy, or trying to make jokes--- it is a feature request forum.
It's as simple as common courtesy, which I would say a big part of this community is lacking.
:salute to those who deserve it--- you know who you are!

Pigtwit isn't worth it, just some little ankle humper that will be gone when school gets back in session.

There are a few posters that get a kick out of being snobs in the wishlist forum and shooting down anything that pops up. Two in particular come to mind...

I have an ego. It is in the form of a P38. And it usually gets shot down to a million pieces each sortie in the MAs. But the good news is, I get a new ego (P38) each time I take off. :joystick:

Some seem to think the forums are their talk show, their opinions are only ones that are important, and the rest of us are stipid.

There is this WONDERFUL thing in your preferences that allows to to block not only private messages but their posts as well.
When someone you personally do not like posts it says "you are ignoring this user"....any you don't even remotely have to view their post...it's been disabled automatically for you.
It's the best option in this forum. :aok

Yes, common courtesy is nice, but sometimes you just have to grow a little thicker skin. If you're going to let some guy sitting at home smacking his keyboard upset you this much, how are you going to act when someone says something to your face? There are those who just shoot down any idea, but on the other hand, there are plenty of people who can't handle the fact that someone disagrees with their idea.
"I wish we had bla bla bla".
"-1 Because bla bla bla will cause bla bla bla and that doesn't make much sense"
"If you don't have something constructive to add, why do you even bother posting!!! :furious How can anyone possibly disagree with me!?"
Oh, and btw... take this!

Yet again you are thinking far too highly of yourself, and trying to deflect what someones says by trying to belittle them so everyone else also disregards what they say. Oh heavens no, we can't show a little vulnerability can we?

No, my reply basically was just sayin' it's not worth getting into it with some twit on the forums humping my ankles. If you have a problem with me either send a PM, put me on your ignore list or report me to HTC. Easy enough to understand or do I have to draw you some pictures?
ack-ack

I'm calling it quits on this thread, it's gone so far south that it makes anon look intelligent. I'm going to follow my own advice and just end this.

when you have a game...ONLINE or OFFLINE, and you have THOUSANDS of guys playin said game, the rule of thumb is that not ALL of them will agree with each other every time. men are competitive to begin with, try putting a bunch of females in a kitchen together and see what happens!!! it comes wit the territory. all i can suggest is that if you DO NOT like what people type, ignore them, report them, or just don't log into the game or the BBS...easy fix!
that is all...
carry on....
-
try putting a bunch of females in a kitchen together and see what happens!!!
A delicious meal?

You know John, it would be nice if you would just shut the #3!! up sometimes, I mean GAWD, I work all day and try to come here for a little relaxation, and I have to read your bullcrap. I mean, it's just like on squad channel when you're incessantly babbling on about some rediculous crap and no one has the heart to tell you to shut it you're embarrassing yourself, but ENOUGH man! You fly around in your little cartoon Pony like you just OWN the skies when everyone knows if you were a real man you'd fly an LA7, but NOOOO no one will speak up and just give it to you like it really is. You need to get down off your high horse, the amusement park wants it back.
Damm.

Big Pictures so we can see everything Ack-Ack!!!! Little Pictures can have :noid in them.
