System Wars is evolving

[QUOTE="jediknight52501"][QUOTE="TheGuardian03"]I actually hate the new rules some people i argued with are a bunch of Mofo a**holes and inconsiderate pricks. These new rules suck but i guess i gotta deal with it.CaseyWegner

[QUOTE="CaseyWegner"]

so there should be different rules for different people?

CaseyWegner

I have no idea. From my experience I havent had any issue with marines on these forums. They sometimes think i'm saying something else when i'm fine with them and on their side. I think there are other people on these forums that make a total mess out of threads that are actually for serious discussion. Peopel have been much cooler of late and willing to just talk. For a while there it was a mess and I think the moderators were the biggest issue because there were people spamming report on people who were just trying to have a discussion. I think the moderators had no idea what was going on.

I think there are a lot of young people on these forums that don't know what's up.

again, mods can see what they are moderating. why would they have no idea what's going on? people are not being more cool now unless you consider it cool to throw around insults instead of answers.

Ok Admins, if you are going put this "liberties"in SW and let everyone post BS and insult put a goddamn IGNORE BUTTON :|Giancar

P.S: which is also why the forums are pretty much broken when it comes to links and other such things.

the Mods were all for it.jediknight52501

I just came in to say, that the new rules while awesome on paper, has turned the board into a heaven of flamebait trolling cesspitt of douchebagerry. Is this what SW has been reduced to ? A whitewash of Alt accounts raping the NEW THREAD button with kack?

The problem with the old system was not neccesarily the draconian and questionaeble integrity with which mods executed thier 'powers' but the the overall implementation of the rules laid out

Instead of opening the flood gates to professional trolls, admins should have have focused on the dictum of the rules, and cleared up the vaguesness of what constituted as 'trolling'

I will now be moving to OT, I did not think it was possible for SW to sink any lower, but you have proven me wrong, even by the super low standards by which I judge majority of the posters here.

It's not fair! How come I don't get angry PMs? :cry:ActionRemix

You're not cool enough like us.

^^^ I might have to step my obnoxious level up like tenfold so I can get hateful messages like that too. Consider me jealous, StrongDeadlift :P

Am I trying too hard or not enough? :|ActionRemix

You have to make more topics to get that kind of negative attention. Simply posting in threads won't get you as much exposure since most people don't always read every post in each thread

Want to know the key? Dont get mad. EVER. Dont ever give them attention or validation of any sorts (I.E. replying to them). If someone on the internet puts that much effort into insulting you, DO NOT INSULT THEM BACK. This only proves that not only did you NOT enable their animosity, or bait them.......but they did it all by themselves. This negativity and animosity was built up inside of them BEFORE I came into the picture, and most likely permeates throughout their real life interactions (or lack thereof), and what is on the other side of the computer screen is reprocussion enough for their actions. I will, however, derrive entertainment value from it...

You see, they have the ability to send me all the rediculous insults they want, at their own will, such as racial slurs, homophobic slurs, extreme language ("r*tard", "b*tch"), slurs of sexual deviance (such as "dick sucking microsoft"), talking about me not having a life, etc... all they want. But no matter what they do.......they can NEVER get me mad or as worked up as they are, and they can NEVER elicit the same emotionally charged responses from me in return. This tends to especially frustrate them :lol: This is how a weak mind works.

Also, the "passive trolling" that I do to them (I.E. pointing out that they are weak minded, predictable, and mentally unstable, disturbed) frustrates them even more, because deep down they know everything im saying is 100% correct, and it makes them mad. When they send me these hate filled PMs with strong insults, it is out of frustration that I made them mad, yet they cant make me mad, and they know this. Which is why they CONTINUE to respond with so much animosity and strong emotionally charged language, when its not even being returned to them. They want me to get as mad as THEY are, and they know they will never get that. And at the end of the day......its all because I said something negative about their precious company, Sony, and they feel persecuted.

Any time someone projects hate or negativity like that towards someone else, it is because they want attention, validation, and want someone to acknowlege their existance (which they obviously arent getting IRL).

EDIT:

Also, I reccommend getting an obnoxious AVI like mine, and an obnoxious sig like the T.I. laughing gif I used to have. This also tends to get under their skin for some reason.

Am I trying too hard or not enough? :|ActionRemix

You just gotta know which people to piss off really. Don't bring up some BS argument. Actually put some thought and proof into it. Nothing will get them riled up more than that.

:lol: seems you have it down to a science

I usually get hate mail on video games more and I do do some of the stuff you mentioned. I usually just respond with either a smiley face, a winking face, or I correct their misusage of there, their, or they're. Like I'll get a message that says "Your a b****" so I'll just reply " You're*." That usually irritates them as well.

Also, its ridiculous, not rediculous :P

He's right about the avatar/sig thing. I should've kept my DNF avatar because that seemed to piss off everyone, even when the thread was just about some random bullcrap which had nothing to do with DNF.

Yeah, I'm not even sure if people know what my avatar is (its the album art of one of Mudvayne's albums). I had another user send me a PM about a month ago saying "OMG I just realized it was a face. I thought it was clouds!"

Maybe I should get one of Bobby Kotick or a MW3 logo

See, I get that too. When I play Halo (even though I havent played halo in like 3 months, and dont even care for it) I get people sending me voice messages of noting but "your a f***ot, N word, racial slur here, homophobic slur there, something about sucking a dick, something involving an erect phallus, aka a "dick" or other object going into my mouth or anus in some way(or other sexual deviance)etc....you cant even play assault, you are so terrible at Halo, you should just stop playing and go kill yourself, etc.." and basically trying to redicule me on my adeptness(or lack thereof) at playing Halo Reach.

I dont even respond or acknowlege messages like that. Just acknowleging the existance of that kind of stupidity, automatically brings you down to their level. My mind simply cannot comprehend the thought process that goes into sending people messages like that :lol:. It is a foreign language to me.

And really? Making fun of me for sucking at Halo Reach? Really? Is that supposed to offend me :? Are you bragging about the fact that you have no life, and over 1000 hours of playtime on the game? I play games for FUN. Hell, most of the time, I dont even have the controller in my hands, because Im to busy reading the internet on my laptop. For someone to be motivated enough to send that kind of message, I PROMISE you the thing that is on the other side of that computer (or Xbox) is worse punishment than anything I could possibly send back to them.

seems to me he has a valid complaint specially since system wars is being ruined because of this new lax in rules method.WilliamRLBaker

Snipes makes a good point about that...

Here's a wild f*cking idea: how about instead of b*tching and moaning, all the "SW is ruined" types actually started making some threads/posts more constructive than "SW is ruined"?

Or we could just learn to ignore people ourselves. Considering how consistently GS is able to break itself without introducing any significant new features, trainwreck-type entertainment value notwithstanding I don't particularly want to see what happens when the IT types really start screwing around under the hood. :P

Why haven't you moved to the GGD board? Why do you continue to torture yourself? You won't have to consistently change your diapers over there, lad.

So, have you made a bookmark yet for GGD, laddy?

General Games Discussion is over there, lad. You'll be better off wearing your diaper in that forum.

I could care less, but if you're going to continue to cry about people in this forum then why torture yourself and post here? General Games Discussion would suit your tastes far better.

Your post just oozes butthurt. Seriously, GGD is over there. They will give you for which you seek. I don't see why you're still here.

Perhaps its time for you to quit whining and move to the GDD? I've lost track of how many times you've posted complaints about this...Stevo_the_gamer

Must be too difficult to ignore people's posts.Stevo_the_gamer

learn how to communicate. a beautiful girl died because of the crap people pull and you and companies look the other way because they cant realize their errors, when she should have stood up. someone should have let her know people care. i realize you are doing your jobs. but there are people out there who don't need the **** who are responsible nice people who are just trying to live their lives. thanks for fixing it. a grave injustice has been done. blah, blah. people need to take care of themselves. the aszholes need to go.

I realize it's our duty as an american to get rid of the **** But learn how to communicate. grow up.

these are video games. people are here to talk about video games and have fun.

there are people who need it. there are people who don't.

there are kind respectful reponsible honest people out there who have been banned repeatedly who are just trying to have fun and talk about games which is the whole point.

I might be one of them for all you know. lol.

I get it who cares just walk away. TAke care of yourself. But when there is so much crap out there kind of difficult sometimes.

how are your kids? do you have kids? what's your name? blah, blah.

We the people. Blah, Blah.

how about caring and listening to people.
