I hate to say this...but, I think it's really over for our beloved game.

hm that is exactly what my husband said the other night.

Citation f'ing needed ? Look the hell up.

Guess his mind just imploded. Not surprising, if a smiley face drives you to fits.

More f bombs needed - it always helps.

The guy had a thread where he went on for 50 pages of posts arguing a pointless point, and brags about getting off on correcting people over the internet.

Protip: "citation needed" is internet-speak for "bull ****, show me where I said that."

Protip: Citation f'ing needed ? Was regular guy speak, for take it elsewhere and find an idiot that wants to play your game.

'nother one for the list.

Entropy Legion * Hyperion Force * Hero Heights

I had a brief temptation, to look up the citations for PPCGunner, seeing as I was pretty sure Uberguy was trying to pick a fight, but I saw this and laughed so hard I nearly fell out of my chair.

Fat chance. Not that I won't dance around and do backflips if they succeed.

"Regular guy" who proclaims to be here to "blow our minds".

How's that going, anyway?

Rock on. If how things usually go for you on the forums here are any indication, I'm guessing you needed the amusement. It must be a real downer to be so right all time, and yet not only have no one acknowledge it, but have so many people actually deny it. Nemesis plot, indeed.

Of course, contrary to PPCRegularGuy's conclusions, I don't actually think I have any special reputation for denying your correctitude. After all, look at all those example quotes I posted earlier. My only claim to fame (shame?) is that I just happened to have a really long example handy. I can't actually take all the credit, though. My personal posse of forum pit bulls, so ready to take you down a peg on my command, have to factor in somewhere. Truly, I owe them all a pint or five once the lights go out on these forums.

I learned a couple of things from threads recently. Every argument I have had on the boards over the years has come from my desire to see the game improve. A more accessible market that didn't so grossly favor the manipulators, Bringing blasters up to the performance level of other ATs, trying to get depth added to the game so it would have a wider audience all of that was because I saw potential for this game that now will never be realized. I was willing to fight because I cared.

Without the concern about the games future or the hope of seeing it improve, you are nothing to me just a guy with a really big chip on his shoulder.

Come Dec 1, I will find something new to do with the wife, and you will still be a nobody that needs to be right on the net.

What I say next contains no sarcasm, is not a veiled joke or dig, or anything of that sort.

I would never begrudge you or anyone else that motivation. I applaud it for every player of this game, whether or not or even how often I might have disagreed with you.

That said, I came to deplore the way in which you went about it.

So you do realize that you are the guy who jumped in to this thread, armed with a dictionary to pick at just one piece of a post that wasn't even addressed to you, right? I probably wouldn't have said "boo" to you without that. You get that, right? And when I responded, you are the one who broke out the reference to that old thread?

And I'm the one with a chip on his shoulder?

Here's the best part, Fan. What would I even have that chip for? Being shown up by you on the forums? Fan, for me to be upset about that, I would need to think that ever happened. And with absolute and utter sincerity, I do not.

The only thing I have against you is the way you have behaved around here. Not your ideas, nor your goals. Just the way you have treated other posters. Because despite what my anti-fan with the Mechwarrior-sounding name is wont to think of me, I know I actually wasn't an *** to people most of the time. You can disbelieve that if you want to, because I've certainly been an *** to you here, but if you never know the truth of it doesn't really matter to me.

There's a wonderful symmetry in how we view each other, then.

Does that mean it's time to feast upon wildebeests?
