To the Mod that gave me -5 Tag points, THANKYOU!

Doesn't matter to me if it was Positive or Negative, but god damn!   Your the first mod that showed any CARE about giving me Tag points in over eight long hard fought years.  This is not sarcasm.

Seriously THANKYOU!  About time I got some points, negative or positive, i'm happy and overjoyous.

IT"S ABOUT TIME!


Yes, there was an overhaul to the tag point system. Now they come and go as easy as Forever's mum! yikes

Arby: A very strict mod, reminds me of a fat redneck who drives a truck around all day with a beer in one hand. I hated this guy at the start, however, I played a round in PW with him where he went as an anonymous player. Our fam got smashed up and everyone pretty much left. Arby stayed around and helped out the remaining family. At the end of the round he revealed himself.... My views on him have changed since. Your a good guy.....

Re: The Baratheon Menace

Key, as bad as I felt taking what I know are hard earned tagpoints off of you, the rule on giving and taking tagpoints is clear, it's -1 for each breach of rules up to a possible -5. If you give good posts I'm also more than happy to give tagpoints smile

Seriously funny to read all this stuff...

Especially the part where someone works forum tagpoints... as if anyone cares...

...meh...

Re: The Baratheon Menace

Actually....I used to care.  I mean so many promises were made that were not upheld.  There were mod overhauls prior which really lead to nowhere except for enforcing Forum Rules.

If there was a overhaul to the Tag Point system...this is the first time I ever saw it Enforced on a Forum level, so I was completely taken by surprise.

You know how long it took me to get even 8 points?  Those weren't even earned in the Forums.  That was me hitting up in the top 20 list in the IC game itself.  In a single year.  8 points in a single year.  A point here and there.

But seriously, none if it was for role-play, helping, or even Forum level talk.

So -5, and at my current level of cynicism, is probably just going to be the tip of the iceburg when it comes to future losses.  Those that remember me, I used to have a ton of patience, I used to have a pretty good upbeat way of looking at things.

NOW?

I'm a devil's advocate.  My glass is always half full.  I suffer no fools.  I have no faith in government or civil authority.

I used to joke about let humanity die, and give the world to the cats.

I don't joke anymore.  I use wit and sarcasm as a weapon, instead of a punch line.

I think most of what I've written in Politics has shown my complete disregard of fear of what I have to say, when it needs to be said.

You can call it trolling if you want.  That word trolling in itself shows the understanding of the term has lost it's meaning.  Trolling pertains to fishing.  To you lot, it's an attempt to gain a response whether one is sought after or not, also known as "Baiting".  After all I am a Master Debater (pun intended).  I do not require a response when I say something.  If my response angers someone, or they're heart starts racing due to what I've typed, I'd say drink a glass of water, count to 10, take deep breaths.  I'm giving my two cents worth, with maybe an added buck just to show how much I like to share during a conversation and/or argument.

Now the subject of the post wanted to argue the point of being labeled a villain.  A villain.  Words HE chose.  Because he was blind.  He was a blind SOB who didn't have a clue to the reason why he was having such a hard time with other people, and I told it straight up how it was, and the reasoning.  The actions, consequences, and the final aftermath.  I believe what I had to say sunk in, not only to Baratheon on this whole subject matter, but to the people who responded towards Baratheon.

Of course this lead to my speech, the negative -5 points, and that's ok with me.  You know why?  Because I am willing to understand and take the consequences of my actions.  And that consequence was brought on by what I typed.  And that's good enough reason as an example to show Baratheon about what you say is an action.  What you type is an action.  How you act towards another person is an action.

And those actions have Consequences.

I rest my case.

See how certain things tie into each other?  Amazing how things work out.

=^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.

"so I was completely taken by surprise."

get his 5 tps bak, he wasnt aware of the rezent updates, there should be a "warning" before removing tps for people that have just kome bak with no time to get updated on the new tp system.

Re: The Baratheon Menace

Thats one long story to make the point that you can live with the consequences of your actions...

...meh...

Re: The Baratheon Menace

This whole give & take away tag points is pointless.  Tag points have no meaning, just let the guy speak his mind.

Re: The Baratheon Menace

This is the funnies thread I've read in awhile. That's not saying much seeing as it is the second one I've read since I rejoined.

The fact that Bara still gets under your skin is hilarious. You can go back and forth about how and why he became the villain, but the fact remains that he was labelled and boxed as such forever after. Bara is not the bad guy in this story, in truth, the community is.

You can probably name 10-15 times by now that Bara betrayed his family and did "unspeakable" actions, if they were deserved or not is never spoken of. Giving one player the power to destroy your round is something you do, not something he does on his own. Unless he is really the SS god he claims, where he can singlehandedly destroy his entire family on his own. In either case his family, and not him ends up being the idiots.

Now for his social actions, we all got our dark sides here, he is honest and up front about his and should be commended for it instead of shunned. At least he is an elitist household racist you know and can trust to stay as such. Does this surprise you? Then that is still on you.

As far back as I can remember this game, there's been Baratheon, being your go-to-guy for who to point at as a villain. Keep in mind I started in 2001, this is now 12 years later. As a community you keep asking him to repent, while for 12 years you don't take responsibility to forgive and forget. HAH!

Keep doing your thing Bara, at least I get entertained, and that is really the only reason I keep coming back to this game.

Re: The Baratheon Menace

Dont try to discuss this. Gwynned told me no bumps what so ever. And whats valid isnt up to you or any other mods. It only has to be valid for the guy who bumps it. If its not troll.

Re: The Baratheon Menace

Anyway this thread isnt about bad modding. So sorry for interrupting your post damon

Re: The Baratheon Menace

Yep, these days it's called spamming if you post alot lol, back then your post got lost in the forums.. smile
