Title: Thinking about leaving
Post by: GoldenFox93 on May 09, 2010, 01:07:49 PM
I don't know. I just don't know about my role on here anymore. I know I've been acting a bit stupid lately, and from it, I notice I've recieved quite a bit of flack from people like System32 and ACAMS lately. That made me think-
"What purpose do I serve on here?"
So basically, I now wonder if I'm actually any use here, so I might consider leaving depending on what people think to this move. As a result, should I stay or go?

I havn`t read the text but:

SHUT UP AND STAY!

No one needs a reason to be here. No one needs to be of any use. It's a forum for a game we all love, and as long as you love the game you're a part of the forum.  Look at your signature: You have participated in 6 tournaments already, even gotten in the top three of one of them. Is that not enough? Do you really think you need to release AI packs and create cool arenas just to be a part of the community?

The only reason I would ever see for leaving would be that the game got boring.

Ah just ignore S32, he's a moron.

They're arguing with you over Politics. Nothing RA2 related, but politics. Last I looked, this is an RA2 forum, not a Politics one.

Dont go GF! You are the NICEST guy I have ever met in internet. Please stay.

Ah just ignore S32, he's a moron.
Hm, I kind of guessed. To tell the truth though, I just feel angry and upset at what he wrote about me. But then again, if I left, it'd mean he's won.
Title: Re: Thinking about leaving
Post by: Reier on May 09, 2010, 01:21:47 PM
It doesn't mean he 'won', it just means he insults a lot which is pretty obvious. IDK even what your guys were arguing about anyway.
Title: Re: Thinking about leaving
Post by: Thyrus on May 09, 2010, 01:22:07 PM
common, half of the forum is ignoring s32.

If you leave, I'll steal your house while you're out.

Yeah, I steal houses.
Title: Re: Thinking about leaving
Post by: GoldenFox93 on May 09, 2010, 02:08:11 PM
You know what? Maybe I am overreacting slightly. I think I'll just stay and consider S32 a douche from now on. Who thinks that sounds like a plan?  = P
Title: Re: Thinking about leaving
Post by: G.K. on May 09, 2010, 02:10:16 PM
A mighty fine plan that is, Sire.
Title: Re: Thinking about leaving
Post by: Gazea2 on May 09, 2010, 02:12:55 PM
Good, your staying. Don't worry about insults. They are only words. I mean, although this might sound mean, what harm can they do to you?

Ignore System32 if you don't get on with him. You have many other people on here that you do get on with. There's no need to leave because of one person.

Also, like Sage said, you don't need to be amazing to be part of the community. At the end of the day, this is a website for people that play the game.

So, I'm glad to hear you're staying. :)

What is it about the game that gets people so excited?

Anyway, at least contemplating leaving before I actually did so did turn out for the best.
Well, it's better than pretending I topped myself-at least it allows you to come back  = P

just been reading a few posts here. i am here to be part of a community the interests me. i do not feel the need to have some role here or something. i'm just here for the fun.

but seeing that you are staying, you already realised that it's about fun here.

I have considered leaving this forum (but wasn't going to make an announcement thread about it?) but you stop and think why throw away something you enjoy becasue of someone else ?

I talked with Madiaba a bit (great guy to talk to :P) and he made me see that leaving or throwing in the towel isnt the best idea, working out your troubles is the best course of action or at least not letting it bother you.

you dont have to see any of us face to face every day so if someones giving you grief just simply click that index button and jump into another thread  ;)
Title: Re: Thinking about leaving
Post by: DuckRA2 on May 10, 2010, 05:25:25 PM
I think of leaving all the time, i dont make a thread of it, I dont think it would matter to anyone if i left, but then i remember how fun this game is, and that it really deserves to compete with other present day games... I have never found a game at all like this one. The creativity and possibilities of bots are infinite... why let it rust in my harddrive? Man why did infrogrames/atari ditch this game? A third would be cool. But would it have all the fun little unrealistic details? I'm not sure.

Let this Robot Arena 2 live on!
Title: Re: Thinking about leaving
Post by: Madiaba on May 10, 2010, 07:04:50 PM
I think of leaving too, sometimes, due to time constraints though...  But the game is fun, and I'd miss many here....


BTW: Funny how Sparkey could be blamed as the cause of someone leaving,... but a female who also posts useless posts, from the very same addiction to attention,(even greater than Sparkey) is enabled, and begged to stay...  :confused:   
Women are smarter than men here: She knows how to push male buttons.
 
It's quickly becoming a matriarchal society....
 
 
Though I hope not, she will most likely 'Do you guys, and then Diss you guys'. And you won't have a clue as to how you were just exploited.....
(Please do not mention this text and leave the above invisible please if quoted). Mad.

A douchebag? I don't know if that's the right term.

As far as the logic of GF goes, (I'm being really nice saying he uses logic here btw) "Douche" translates to "Calling out", "Challenging claims" and "Biting back".
 
Following his rules of debate, He is a whining twat with all forms of diseases and if he asks why he is a douchebag.
 
Thyrus, GK and LDL are being provocative because their friend is a whining twat who can't back up his claims because they are bullsh**. Classic swarm mentality.

Fine, I will.
 
What I find is that Brown is (Was as of now) a man who likes to take all the credit when everything is all sweetness and light, but as soon as something bad rears its ugly head he blames, he dodges and he denies ALL and admits nothing.
In effect, he saw himself as completely blameless for anything, that the Tories were the cause of all of Britain's wrongs, and that New Labour can't do anything wrong. Yet thanks to them, we're now the laughing stock of Western Europe.
 
That, and he liked to honestly believe in his little mind that he was the Saviour and solver of Britain's finance problems, when in fact he is the cause of most of them.
 
Happy now?
