Title: MANaWAR, cutting through the bluster
Post by: Tank-Ace on July 15, 2011, 11:05:01 AM
Just a shortened film of him getting pwned. You missed no fancy flying, all you missed were between 6-9 ho attempts.

I'm IN. I 'd bet skuzzy'll shut this one down because he warned me once about starting a thread directed at one player. I think there was a general threat levelled to ban anyone who so attempted but that's my possibly faulty recollection.

In any case, I don't think it was a wise move to start a "Rip on X" thread but I'm IN (ding, ding, ding).

At least he's flying a plane now as opposed to sitting in a CV gun and trolling 200. I only see him in fast rides though so it's going to be a steep learning curve.

The other big no, no, and I say this just based on what I've seen here, seems to be starting a "lookameeee!" thread. Those ALWAYS end badly. I did it myself with the thread about Tila Tequila and the Juggalo concert. It was all in good fun but, eventually, it got locked down.

I will say this about ManaWar - he had one of the more spectacular "lookameee!" threads in "Warbeast's Kill Klub". I laffed an' laffed at the thread within. Eventually, though, the laughing had to end.  

It's kind of like breaking into someone's house and using it as a place to host a big "trash the place" party. Eventually, you've got to figure the cops are going to show up. Trust me on this one - a kid I knew way back in Middle School actually did such a thing. He hosted the party as if he was housesitting. We all got so drunk on the owner's booze that we sort of made a mess. Days later, we found out the "host" was under arrest for breaking and entering. Some time soon thereafter, he was shipped off. They never did find out who owned the other (multiple) sets of prints. Heck, I'd say the host's false pretense gave us plausible deniability anyway - for we truly did not know.

Correct, afaik... I killed him in a 47 the other week.

Not related to the gentleman in question, just a general observation:

Is anyone else's favourite part of any fight when you hear the 'bad guy' shut off his engine? It screams to me "I have no throttle control, KILL ME!"

not trying to bash MANaWAR with this threat, not like I said 'everyone insult MaW'. Just showing one of the few rare instances when hes not in a gun.

Just kidding, tank Ace. Who knows how he'll deal with this one? I'd love to backseat moderate but it's virtually impossible.

would be really impressive if there was a picture of him when his cv goes down as he's typing "welcome to the kill club".  I had a video gotta find it  :D.

not trying to bash MANaWAR with this threat,

Are you sure about that?  I mean, with the thread title "ManaWar, just an angry jellyfish" kind of makes it sound like you're trying to bash ManaWar or at the very least, hump his ankles.  So which is it?  Trying to bash him or hump his ankle, or god forbid, all the above?

ack-ack

Not bashing him, just saying all his talk is just that: talk. However you are right, I definitely could have picked a better title, but that's what happens when you post in anger.

My word. I played the game a lot back in 2007, judging by the films in my Aces High folder, and he was around then. Forever in a ground vehicle, dictating strategy in CAPITAL LETTERS. From behind the lines.

"Forward, he cried, from the rear / and the front rank died."

Look.... It's easy to single out the one guy in the game who has decided to use the field guns and ship guns almost exclusively.  But we should also take into consideration that he is cocky because he is really good at shooting down aircraft with these guns.  We should also take into consideration that it is not his fault that kill credits only work one way with field and ship guns.

That's all I have to say about that.
Title: Re: MANaWAR, cutting through the bluster
Post by: Tank-Ace on July 15, 2011, 02:18:02 PM
I'm sure most of us would be fine with him if he would just shut up. If he made a particularly good kill, such as a 15k kill on a set of buffs, then fine, bring up the kill club.

But no, he started up the 'effing assist club last week  :noid.

MANaWAR likes to be a little brother character (despite his age) who fishes for responses from guys on 200. My guess is he likes the attention but doesn't care what people think about him or his skill level. My advice on dealing with trolls would normally be "Don't feed it!" but this troll is harmless and is just looking for kicks. So don't flame him, he's just jabbing you're ribs and he's impervious to fire anyway. But still give him a response, the results are always humorous and I and everyone else on 200 love the show  :cheers:

If his chatter bugs you, might I suggest making full use of the .squelch command?  I find it very effective IN dealing with him.

Ya know, when I squelch him, I'm still left with the 10 guys chatting with/at/to him that he has managed to get all worked up and mouthy.

I got no place to talk though, I was one of the most offensive players in WarBirds.

Things change however. 

I truly believe it is a priviledge to be able to play this game.  As an adult, I hesitate to recommend it to my adult friends because of the juvenile behavior that ensues.
I am embarrased by association.  Surely, most of you have spoken to others about what we play here.  Most folks get that glazed look and I imagine they are thinking "Oh jeez, this guy is excited about a computer game he plays".  I do not expect most folks to understand anymore than I would expect them to understand the childish behavior exhibited by a few vociferous sociopaths.  Unfortunately I am guilty by association, and have stopped telling anyone else about AH, or inviting them to join us.  That my friends is the sad part.
