Although I was no Mother Teresa during the 11 or 12 years I've been playing, neither has the players nor the mods. I've been cursed at, insulted, belittled, bullied, rogued, intimidated, and ostracized. If I've deserved those things, then so be it. But I think it's unfair for all of these players and mods to point the finger at me and claim "bara's the problem, he started it, he's completely to blame -- now let's all light torches and burn him to the stake like we've been petitioning for years!" Why? Because people don't feel warm and fuzzy when they think of my name? I must remind you all, for every 100 insults thrown my way, I've maybe returned 1 -- if even that. However, I repeat, I've been no Mother Teresa, but don't claim you've all been Saint Catherines.
If I'm made out to be a villain, then don't be surprised if I decide to actually play the part. In truth, I don't think I am a villain, but I can play the role as we've all seen as of late. And on the other hand, the mods have shown that they can be witch-hunters/burners and inquisitors just the same. If no mercy is shown to me, should I then show mercy in return? But still, I am compelled to -- but my offer has all but fell on deaf ears. All I ask in return is to be shown the same respect, and to be treated just as fairly as any other regular player in IC. If anyone contests that I have in fact been treated equally, I can produce a litany of undeniable instances where this was not the case.
I wouldn't quite put you in the villian list. But I've been doing AIM, Imperial Conflicts, Guildwars, for over a decade and a half. One thing I've learned is that there is a type of player that "Does Not Give a Flying [woof!]..."
Your one of those players. It doesn't matter that actions have consequances. Or that the consequances you believe do not personally effect you. Your, "I don't give a [pumpkin]," attitude has left a bad taste in to many players mouths. I had to deal with someone like you in Guildwars for years. His, "I can say anything I want, because that's my right," or his "I don't care what other people think," pretty much alienated him to everyone in our Guild and/or Alliance. He wasn't well thought of, and he certainly wasn't well respected mostly because he had a supreme attitude problem.
Now I've read much of your stuff over the years, and I used to respond. But there came a time after reading much of what you had to say to people, or towards people in general as a whole...that I got sick of reading it, and stopped responding.
Until you fricken wake up, start careing what you say or type towards people, or life in general, your not going to be respected, and people aren't really going to think highly of you.
But with your continueing, "I don't give a flying [chocolate sauce]", and your "I don't give a [wowzor]", attitude....then your serious personality disorder is going to shield you from changing for the better.
This is me, telling you, wake up. If you want to be someone, if you really gave a damn what others thought of you, then the problem isn't them, it's you.
I was thinking of not typing anything, but hey, sometimes it's better to kick someone in the teeth with the truth, than beat around the bush.
You remember Inviltrist? He stopped doing his little Nazi routine, after a little incident I had with him. You know what kicked him off his Nazi habit? When he said that his GF was pregnant and with child. And I told him, I'm glad he's having a child, and I hope it died during childbirth, or better yet, that it was killed while trying to grow up to be just like his dad.
He kinda QUIT typing his [references], after he QUIT coming into IRC Chat.
You know why he fricken quit his Nazi bullshit? Because I was honest with him.
So here's me, being honest with you. You want to play your I don't give a flying [hmmmm, this is getting beyond a joke] or giving your I don't give a [monkey] what others say routine? Fine. [and trolling]
Either deal with yourself, or whatever problem you have, move on, and become a more CAREING person who understands that certain Actions do have Consequances.
Your a Villian because you CHOSE to become the villian because of your Actions.
The people treating you as a villian is the CONSEQUANCES.
Now if you can't believe that your actions became these consequances as you read in Forum community, well then...it really is your fault.
Now if you excuse me, I have to go back to work and deal with problems which were created by other people. I'm a fixit personl. I'm the guy that picks up dropped balls. I'm that guy that makes your job and life easier, by making sure the product you want is the product you get.
I used to be this happy go lucky guy, that listened to whatever problems people have, or gave them new insight to things they didn't previously see.
Now...when i'm nice, I can be nice. But when i'm mean, I can be very very mean.
=^o.o^= When I'm cute I can be cute. And when I'm mean, I can be very very mean. I'm a cat. Expect me to be fickle.
