Because of all this the list of people I'm disappointed with is really long and it makes me not want to play with the community anymore. I'll have to cope by dueling with select people I can still enjoy the game with.
I'll retire to the off-topic and M:BG forums, peace.
Edit: I'm pissed at a few BRD members, it includes both sides. Just wanted to clarify that I'm not blaming only one side.
Mentioned my feelings in the previous thread but as a little observation... Having not been involved in this community for months and playing other games and participating in other communities, coming back to see this kinda stuff makes the awfulness really stand out. People need to grow up a bit. If you want to be a troll who spends all day fucking with other peoples on the interwebs then at least step up your game and put a little effort in. What nostalgia I had for the community has greatly diminished. Also, I do actually agree with Kesh about the community being better back in the day, not to the extent that there were no trolls or anything, but it used to be y'know a few trolls out of the 100 people in the server... now its like 50% of the server and generally more abusive and awful than it used to be. Anyways, I'm out. I'll stay far far away for another however long until some day when I get bored and check to see if anyone still plays. I hope you all listen to Rhalzo.
I didn't read any of this but the first couple posts because I didn't need to. Plumbo is pretty accurate in his first post and Kesh is correct when saying years ago mod was better. For real people that tried to troll were just insta-ban and Farmer Nate was the greatest shit talker that has ever graced this earth. Trolling was, as he stated, people doing themed things together, and the community was much more pleasant. Now all that's left is the shit at the bottom of the barrel and you guys really went out of your way to prove it. Whenever one of you get in trouble or "bored" you take your toys and go home. Then, you tell everyone how shit the game is and how pathetic they are for playing/caring. Like for real? Open your eyes.
I couldn't summarize it better than this! Almost the saddest thing was that you are completely unapologetic (even if you think your 2-day ban was excessive), you really think its okay to spam the n-word and call people racist or homophobic slurs. Deltah even just admitted he wouldn't tell people to stop saying the n-word because he was worried his friends "would think him a whiny, over-sensitive bitch". and Sandy agreed they would (definition of a toxic clan). That is when you should probably take a big, long look in the mirror and realize how spineless you have become that you worry more about what your internet friends think of you than doing what is right and respectful of others.
I may be belligerent and an asshole, but man, I don't think anyone could ever call me a coward like that. You just don't get that its wrong to do, apologize, and move on after a silly 2-day ban (this may have been on the slightly longer side of a reasonable ban for racism, but not unheard of or unreasonable considering the circumstances of everyone following like mindless cowardly lemmings and doing it). And no I do not condone it in the slightest of any FCC members that did it either. I have never said that hateful word in any context in my entire life.
You honestly should be embarrassed and the fact that you are "taking the high ground" as Deltah put it by trying to insult me for telling you having an entire clan being okay with spamming racist slurs is not right - screams how incredibly toxic you have been to the community. You have become so used to the toxicity, you actually defend it as okay and a good thing to spam the n-word, as if spamming hate-filled speech just to impress your friends really is some impressive form of free speech. Go back to your Neo-Naszi meetings and wave your Confesderate flag and good-riddance.
P.S. We have talked within FCC for years about this and many many FCC have left over the years for this exact reason after we crushed you in strat - hence another reason I am reasonably pissed at you lemmings.
P.P.S. This is really hilarious: "attack the same castle every single day for weeks at a time, and all sorts of horrendous shit" - god forbid we bring battles to the community and you get to defend a castle, which is probably the easiest and most fun battles.
