Cubs and Lance were standing at the base of a flagpole, looking at its top. An NPC Merc walked by and asked what they were doing. "We're supposed to find the height of this flagpole," said Cubs, "but we don't have a ladder." The NPC Merc took a wrench from his backpack, loosened a couple of bolts, and laid the pole down on the ground. Then he took a tape measure from his pocket, took a measurement, announced, "Twenty one feet, six inches," and walked away. Lance shook his head and laughed, "A lot of good that does us. We ask for the height and he gives us the length!"

This is what you are trying to argue reason with people. Good luck, let me know how it works out!!

Well thats the internet, hell thats life. People on 2 different sides why would they agree with each other and act friendly.

Anyways i lol'd :p +1.

why should they actually play and not exploit glitches...

says the guy in PRO...
__________

this isn't even meta anymore... I've come to realize that every post against EoN is a post made because of jealousy. People wannabe like EoN, hence the sour grapes effect.

Have fun coming off as a 12 yr old till then.

u know whats funny? I just asked ALL the leaders of eon, and.. sure enough

'corporate Raiders' has not ever shown up in anyones battle tab

your comments mean less than nothing
_____

then no offense, but shut the fu*k up cause you know nothing Jon Snow...

but now they're avoiding fights...

eon is just an alliance comprised of stupid nubs who only hope to win is by locking down their own districts...

SMH, this kid.I am seriously starting to feel just as ignorant for even replying. I bet your parents are amazed you can get out of the bed and make it to the breakfast table without breaking your neck each day. All a person needs to feel important is a goal I guess.

That's not him, but what these forums have done to him.

QFT

and its people like you that are to help the blame. One minute its all serious arguments and you want serious answers then 2 posts later you trolling again acting like an idiot.

Once again this is what internet forums are lol, especially in an MMO.

Agreed, and you know what, I give up. The mentality will not change and neither will how people think. I'll limit my posts to helping out and avoiding confrontation from this post forward. I will ask something before I turn my leaf.

Cubs, seriously man, have a talk with Lance, he doesn't even know when he has been made fun of. He thought I was complimenting him. I used your name Cubs because I couldn't think of that "Z" dudes name lol..but talk with Lance, he needs a mentor.

Also, I've never been in IRC, no idea what a RofL'ing or doing the RoFL is. Not that my memory is shot, I just never heard of it before.

There is a problem on these forums, however I don't think it's confined to the "dust community". The majority of the posts are looked at with a political agenda so to speak. The posts are presented and viewed at as "sided". Whether it is the case or not. Reason and dialogue are not given a fair chance.

Certain Eon players talk down to everyone without an Eon tag, disregarding anything that is said simply because of... well.. whatever it is (no need to go into detail)





And those are simple example that have come from a single thread today.. Every thread is littered with them, unfortunately.

On the flip side, we have the blind anti-Eon bull**** as well.





*sigh*

It clouds and irrationalizes all the good conversations and discussions that could be had. Someone can ask a simple question, or try discuss a point, however it's simply viewed as one of the "sides" for whatever conflict is occurring at the time. The individual is labeled as such and\or "meta". It's difficult to sift through this crap at times.

And can turn good people into cynical spiteful bastards.

I know who\what Numb3rz is all about. He's been a friend of mine for years now. I called him my brother at one point in time, but he's become one of the worst "lol u suck scrub, get gud" posters on here. That's not him, but what these forums have done to him.

Cubs might be one of the nicest guys if you know him, but he's come off as such a jerk to everyone outside of Eon. He could cure cancer in baby kittens and no one would care. I even tried having a conversation with him at one point, but it was the same

actually, this is yet another scrub that is clueless to the situation.

So I guess it is what it is....

What's the point of all this? Well... I guess to point out that people have can have opinions, discussions and debate without having the labeled "side". In fact, those perspectives might provide some valued insight to those on either side that actually care. Just don't want it all lost in the mud-slinging and hate.

Once again this is what internet forums are lol, especially in an MMO.

If you blame the forums then you have to blame the community inside the forums for making it that way. It's not like forums, which as I will now refer to as we, change people. We just bring out the worst in them. People hate being trolled or told they're wrong or they're bad.

But to me - it's all in good fun. But for a lot of others it's not good fun - it's just trash talking. It's really not surprizing you find defensive people in both EoN and FEC - they're putting each other through alot right now.

But I always believe these forums will just be like this - the forums have become a part of the game itself and people take it too seriously around here. Even after this war is over and EoN splits up and joins the other alliances/corps this won't end.

The only people I have ever intentionally put my troll hat on for, and removed myself from reality and joined the darkside, are

You
Lance
Mavado
King Kobrah
and a small handful of other forum douchebags (my opinion of you, sorry dont mean to offend but I call a spade a spade)

see a trend there pal?

Ah well, i don't recall acting like an idiot. Not saying I'm not one, simply don't recall blatantly trolling anything.... not usually my style. Adding a comment here and there, sure. I don't consider myself jaded for either side that i blind myself to reason, however.

Some of my best of (on-line gaming) friends are in Eon, likewise the FEC....

This isn't about me, bro. Just trying to point out that not everyone is always out to get you or make you look bad.

while we're calling spades, spades...Molan Labe is garbage and so are you

Ohh burnn you got him good with that one. I remember not so long ago another loud mouth asshat that used to post here, dude even claims to have written a book about it. Saying something about you not even being that good.

Funny how these types of insults carry as much weight as a fart in a hurricane and say a lot less about the intended victim as they do about they do about the intelligence of the accuser.

In this case you are a genius and have accomplished joining the hall of shame with the other great orators of your time.

oh? another nobody shows up to act tough?

Hi.

You got it this is my tough guy act hang on a second let me pull out my epeen and start making threats as to how you will suffer at my all mighty strength. You no whats tough? Believing that you actually have an ounce of intelligence, your tuff prove me wrong.

Wonderful how people avoid the true meaning of Farens message...

I find it funny he used you as an example of bad posting.

I'm down for those conversations and ER and anyone who knows me knows it.

I'm not the guy that comes here so full of my own opinions that I can't change...even if it feels like even the most logical levelheaded guys do seem to fall for this.

When I get called out and I'm wrong I'm wrong. I've been wrong most of my life. lol.

So come brothers and let us reason together.

Get corp leadership in on this and I'll go along, if not then it's a shame and I'll see if I can actually do something rather than talk on the forums...

blah, sidetracked.....it was just a joke guys. glad some of you got an LOL out of it.

Sota, glad you got a LMAO....never seen you do that before lol

You always so serious...

The shame is already making ultimatums or conditions. You guys roasted Cubs without wanting to have a conversation about it....I think he's on temporary forum hiatus from all the hate. Honestly he couldn't give less of a **** about what the sh1tbums say, but the guys that truly want to use logic and not trolling to make changes..he pays attention. Sure he makes mistakes, but I been playing with cubs a lot.....a ******* lot. Pretty sure I know he's a really cool person that's level headed and a great leader with vision.

Somebody troll me.

Somebody troll me.

Are you actually asking people to waste time on you? You first need a few things:

A) A gun game
B) A brain
C) something worth talking about

You clearly don't have any of these. Now go back to the rock you were ditched under and let the big boys talk.

*How's that? :3*

I hate you..and you suck.

lol. I like your trolling because it's so simple and straight to the point. Have a +1

It would need to be simple for you to keep up.

So that's how it's done? Teach me!

No. Sota is the worst sempai ever.
