... The bigger question is.. Why are you on tweet? Are we all turning into drama queens or something?sSubZerOo
I didn't go to his Twitter page and I doubt anyone else did, either. His comment was quoted in a news article.

[QUOTE="Renevent42"][QUOTE="FelipeInside"] So we are a bunch of grumpy weirdos hey....? Go get a life u pathetic poster....FelipeInside

I guess the shoe fits huh?Oh and I have a life, a damn nice one too! Thanks for your concern though it's touching.

Great to hear that.

Next time try not to insult people you don't know, just like Cliffy did.

Also try to defend the PC market and not take this comments from idiots like him lightly next time....

I didn't insult anyone with that post...I made a general comment about the people Cliffy Wiffy's tweet was aimed at. You took it personally and including yourself into that group by saying: "So we are a bunch of grumpy weirdos hey....? Go get a life u pathetic poster...." You threw yourself in front of that bus, not me. I just said if the shoe fits then wear it basically. I'm a PC gamer and not a grumpy weirdo...it's possible so you know. We are not all grumpy basement dwellers who get provoked by the silliest of comments. Oh and of course you insulted me by calling me a "pathetic loser"...lol. What empty and meaningless words.

Nah, 3D is not a thing yet. I don't think it can produce rage even in the mightiest of fanboys.

Also, stockman you might wanna create a new thread for that as it will probably get lost here.

[QUOTE="Renevent42"] :lol: I wonder if you are serious...nah can't be.Elann2008

ROFL I was thinking the same thing... he even capitalized it, yeah.

And forget about trying to reason with wildflower and the likes -- they're immune to it. Never mind judging a game based on its own merits, never mind ignoring a casual comment; all of a sudden it's the arrival of the righteous PC gamer brigade with a Robin Hood complex, ready to approve the piracy of the game to hell and back and accuse Cliffy B. of 'alienating the PC gamer fanbase'. lmao.

Yup. Mind you, these are the same guys complaining about Dragon Age 2, Mass Effect 2 all being dumbed down. F' it. If you don't like the game or the guy behind the game, don't buy it. And it's sad how some people here keep checking back and posting at every Cliff B. defender on nearly every single page. Sad.. Give it a minute or two and I'll be quoted. Watch.

This is the same guy who claimed he was "moving along" fifteen pages ago. And, of course, he returns. Shocking!

What's more sad than those attacking Cliffy B. defenders are those such as yourself who instantly come to the defense of Cliffy B. when a group of anonymous message board posters state that they dislike him and don't support his products. We clearly don't like the guy or his comments on Twitter, so what exactly are you doing here other than adding fuel to the fire? What, did you think you were going to lead some sort of revolution and turn us into Epic Games fanatics? Get real, and better yet: If you don't like the thread or the users in it, get out. It's really not that difficult.

Nah, that was directed at me. He called me an "insecure weirdo" directly a few pages back. I probably could have reported him for that particular ad hominem attack but I'm not that petty nor do I particularly care what certain posters here, you know, the corporate shills, think of me.

I can't possibly give you enough props for not reporting him. I think those that constantly "report" other users for saying "bad things" are too weak to come to their own defense, so they must "run to daddy" and get him to take care of the mean old bullies.

You mean daddy as in DUKE NUKEM ?? Hail to the King of Kings BABY !!!

Yeah because you implied I had a boy crush prior to that. My first post to you had no insults at all...if I can remind you:

[QUOTE="Renevent42"]

Well he managed to program video games as a teenager, is a design director for a major video game company, and seems to pretty successful at it. My "assumption" is the man can read...probably very well. If any of you who are so quick to call this man an "idiot" really wants to know and understand more about him, I think this article on The New Yorker is pretty good at giving a better picture of the man:

http://www.newyorker.com/reporting/2008/11/03/081103fa_fact_bissell?currentPage=all

Granted, he is no John Carmack, but the man is certainly not an idiot. If you still find the need to paint him as stupid, can I please ask what grand accomplishments you have that give you the authority to make such a judgment about a person you don't actually know?

-wildflower-

Aww, somebody has a boy-crush. How cute!

The only person at Epic who has any talent and isn't a complete jackass is Tim Sweeney.

If you guys are going to act all sensitive about insults and talk about reporting people, at least try to behave yourselves ;)

I also noticed you deleted that post lol...luckily I had it quoted elsewhere.

Heck, that felipe dude called me a loser with no life...I didn't report that either. Todd, you gonna give me my props for that? Yeah didn't think so.

I think Cliffy was 100% right about some of you lol...it's really obvious. Felipe, wildflower, and todd are exactly the type of pc gamer he was referring to. Don't bother refutting, your posts clearly show it.

Cliffy B is actually a nice guy. I personally believe his tweet tweet was misinterpreted a bit and exaggerated. He's also one person out of many who is involve with video games such as Bulletstorm, Unreal Tournament and Gears of War.

Kayne West is maybe a nice guy, i don't know. But he acts like a douche...and so does Cliffy B. This taunt to PC gamers was completely unneeded. And he doesn't have anything to do with Bulletstorm. He's just taking credit for it , which makes him even a bigger douche.

Nope, didn't report it. The only thing I really ever report is spam. My posts have been rational and even- headed, unlike yours. Going back to the very beginning, it's clear who has thin skin and who is easily is set off to rant and rave. My very first post to you was without insult, can't say the same about you though ;)

You know, you can say and claim anything you want, but the facts (and post history) clearly contradicts what you are trying to say. You are the one who was set off ranting and raving (really even before I responded to you aimed at Cliff), I just responded in kind.

You simply can't win a debate through reason and logic, so you resort to claiming I have a boy crush. That says nothing about me, and everything about you. You post so much hate about so many things on this site it's sad.

I will enjoy my wonderful life, thanks.

Oh, really? I guess when you edit out the insult that's true. Let me refresh your memory because, fortunately, I have this quoted too:

Grand Accomplishments in my life? Seems a bit like a personal attack (not a big one, granted) but enough that you felt the need to edit it out, no? So, don't pretend to be innocent in all of this. You made it personal, not me.

The anger is strong in this thread. Cliffy may have been making games in his teenhood (I don't really know or care) But him attacking the pc gamers when hes attempting to sell something to them isnt the greatest move.

All this hate because he said "PC gamers are grumpy" You wonder why the guy says things like that lol. If YOU get offended by someone saying you are grumpy then you really need to go get a life.

The guy is also far from stupid like the other guy said because of his accomplisments and he has managed to market a very sucessful game/series.

People may not like the guy has confidence and charisma and yourselves being most likely the opposite of him but honestly he could be saying alot worse stuff than calling the PC community grumpy for not gettting the demo lol.

Yes the hate is strong and the skin is thin but have at times found myself there. I personally love a good passionate debate because no matter what side you agree with at least you get a good feeling as to where it is they are coming from. I'm tired of bipartisan BS and linguine spined people with the can't we just all get along rhetoric. No we can't just all get along and it's refreshing to see. Finally thanks to the use of quotes, editing and modding has had little effect on the ongoing debate. Carry on.:)

What are you smoking? That post hasn't been updated since Jan 20th lol (all posts have an edit date stamp)...in addition IT STILL HAS THE LAST LINE IN IT. That last line isn't an insult either, it's a question. It basically means what have you done that gives you such a high horse to sit atop and act like he is stupid. :lol: Are you feeling ok? Has Cliffy Wiffy's words gotten you into a tizzy?

Hapless victim? You are the one crying about being insulted not me lol! All I'm saying is if you are going to run around acting bum hurt over "insults" it's best to check your own posts seeing as how you started with that non-sense.

I'm seriously wondering if there is something wrong with you...get some rest or something wow lol.

There has been a lot of heated emotions in this thread, and a lot of posts that were a bit too personal at times. If the discussion picks back up, there's a risk that the discussion once more becomes too personal, rather than focused on the subject matter. If that happens, a lot of the people posting would be facing a large number of moderations of varying degrees.

To prevent those moderations from happening, I'm going to close the thread. :)
