You've got it all backwards. I'm only responding to what others are posting to me. Like I'm doing now.hmsps wrote:And that is your view. It does not mean to say that other views are wrong or less valid. You seem to keep biting on everyone that posts in this thread. We get it, you support what GLG is doing and can see nothing wrong in it. Don't take anything personally what COF is saying as none of it is directed at you, he is just expressing his opinion on what you have posted.
My opinion which has been stated many times and looking through previous threads when he was formally DH, we appreciate that no rules have been broken but what many people are questioning in this thread is why do we all have to be happy clappers and applaud someone who gains his points in the manner in which he does.
Time to let it go natty I think
Actually, I do care about the scoreboard - just not in it's current form. I care about getting a better scoreboard for CC, maybe a separate scoring system for different game types, or maybe the scoring formula should be tweaked - even such a simple change as taking in account each player's game count on the map in question would be an improvement.Chariot of Fire wrote:Natty - it wasn't a personal attack mate. I was just drawing parallels to how you spend your time on CC and how I do. Stuff like the scoreboard probably doesn't interest you that much and may be why you condone GLG's tactics. Your opinion is just as valid as mine, and more times than not you make very salient points with which I seldom have reason to disagree. Cheers

It probably is quite a risk when you spout reams of BS. Your "It reminds me of" list was particularly amusing. Does it really remind you of all those things? What a vivid imagination you have.Gen.LeeGettinhed wrote:At the risk of getting 5 more pages of BS replies from the CC brain-pool. . .
I've consistently heard a common thread: "we don't like the way in which GLG accumulates points".
It reminds me of:
-baseball fans: who LOVE homerun hitters but HATE walk specialists, or base stealers. . or singles hitters. They all have their place in the game
-basketball fans: who love layups. . .but hate dunks by 7'+ players, or the 3 point shot
-prohibitionist: who think nobody should drink ANY alcohol
-puritanists: who think people should only have sex for procreation
-US football fans: who hate interceptions and fumbles turned into touchdowns by great defense
-people that had horse and buggies: that hated those contraptions called automobiles
-those British officers: that hated colonists hiding behind trees to keep from getting shot at -- instead of lining up in red coats in lines
-secretaries: that hated it when PC/word destroyed the need for them
-relatives of mine that play Monopoly without buying hotels: the rules say I CAN buy hotels
-fans of Heavy Weight Fighters: that say undefeated welter weights or fly weights records are distorted
. . .you are wishing for a rule change that simply isn't there -- and CC just happens to have a single common measure
. . .like only YOUR opinion matters. And don't tell us that you are the vast majority -- the vast majority come and play games and don't drone. You don't just speak your piece once or twice . . but on, and on, and on. .and On. . and ON.
The world changes and people react differently to that. Naysayers have had their say, and shit on a friendly congrats. Anyone can disagree, but to whine and drone on about it? Please. . . Oh and CoF, you pic impies that you are some sort of middle-aged adult. You act like a kid who doesn't like another person hitting special buttons on a video game -- it's there for people to use.
A LONG time ago I admitted that I was NO WHERE near the best player on CC. Fine, but I also doubt that you naysayers have the patience to play 500 lower ranks -- and risk the losses. Or did and already got tired of it, fine. If not, no problem, but go ask your mommies for more cookies and juice boxes -- and quit the incessant WHINING. I don't see fine players like Rodion, Josko.ri, MC whining like you all.
Again, CC has said it wants CC to be like a bunch of friends having fun around a fireplace. That is EXACTLY what KoRT does -- from what I see, nice friendly people, that took a minute to congratulate a teammate on an accomplishment.
NOW. . .it's like my "accomplishment" was. . say. . .graduating from a technical school -- instead of MBA or PhD from Harvard/Oxford. FINE, not MBA, or PhD -- but still something someone wanted to say something NICE about. If your daughter/son graduated from something less than PhD/Oxford and your family celebrated it, would you want neighbor or jack-asses poo-pooing the level of their accomplishment? I don't think so -- or you are further gone than I thought.
To those of you who were positive, Happy New Year. For those of you who declined (busy or dislike), thank you for your self control. For Naysayers, fine. for REPEATING DRONING naysayers, get your jammies on. It's time for your momma to read you a beddy bye story. I hope it's your favorite one: with GLG as the boogey man.

Yeah, my pic implies that (not sure about the 'some sort of' though). I opted not to go the childish route of choosing a moniker such as 'gettinhed' and an avatar that, rather tellingly, states 'greed is good'. Now had I really acted 'like a kid' I expect you may have invited me to some of your private games. After all, was it not you that took advantage of an 11-year-old boy - knowing perfectly well that he was only 11 and had played just 5 games on the site - and invited him on 19 occasions in a period of 28 days (in effect every time he had a free slot) to your private games so that you could take advantage of him? And every time he requested Doodle Earth you ignored those requests and invited him to complex maps instead.Oh and CoF, you pic impies that you are some sort of middle-aged adult.

Pass the tissues please,what a pile of sanctimonious crap.Approve or disapprove of his tactics,who cares,but come on you make him sound worse than some paedophile preist.Come down from your high horse for a minute,it's a frigging game,if he ain't broke the rules why should anyone object.Campaign for a rule change if it really bothers you and see how many people leave if you are successful..Chariot of Fire wrote:It probably is quite a risk when you spout reams of BS.

You must be very proud of that achievement; taking advantage of a child like that. And you.....a parent!
The more I've found about you the more you've made me sick.
Keep your hollow crown and keep playing with the children.


I have no idea what the post used to say, but in my opinion, what you wrote natty is the most respectable thing you've ever written on CC. More people should follow your example there, instead of using the "report" button. I applaud you, sir.natty_dread wrote:CoF, I'm thinking you should delete the above post. That's a little more than a bit out of line and you'll probably regret it in the morning. Just a friendly heads-up.

So you're saying that constructive criticism is being a dick? I've noticed quite a few posters who didn't congratulate him and who didn't like this, but were not dicks about it.drunkmonkey wrote:You don't. There are really three options:hmsps wrote:what many people are questioning in this thread is why do we all have to be happy clappers and applaud someone who gains his points in the manner in which he does.
1) Congratulate him.
2) Don't.
3) Be a dick about it.
This thread is about 10% #1 and 90% #3. The #2's, by rule, just don't post at all.
