Not really a case of laziness, it's more a case of people not knowing that it's there as most other forums have a block option on each users profile so when they don't see it there they don't think there is one. 1063

Perhaps I will do an AI test tonight and post results. 1064

I did think the game is losing the fun factor, a lot of things have been vanishing such as BBEANS and a lot of quality vets such as starcore and inf who really progress the game. Surely you can't fault me for that? elitism? no, I don't think I'm awesome at everything I do here. Honestly I miss the times where any tournament would get a bunch of feedback and general chatter along with a whole bunch of entries, things felt much more alive. Having hosted tournaments when the forum was like that compared to now makes me wish my tournaments got more attention, that's only natural right? and I really think people could do a little more and liven up the place a bit. 1067

IIRC the america thread is exactly what caused the fuss, it was in general off-topic (a new section for people outside of playground to chat about general things) which meant there was no trolling allowed there but instead of anything being done I was ganged up on and nothing was done apart from it being moved to the playground.
You seriously think walking in with demands is a good idea? You should know by now that these things you listed ARE GOING TO HAPPEN. ITS THE INTERNET. The result of those things is all in how you react to them. Doing this makes you look like a prick. I know stuff happens but a mod or someone could have done something about it seeing as it was trolling outside of playground but nope..instead all I got was more hostility. Just think this is the first time something like this has happened with me since I joined ages ago, that is because I avoid all the crap in playground etc. you can't blame me for it spilling out into the general forum. This was the section all that trolling started. 1068

Hmm I might try and switch the 2 irons and drive around with the weapon. It has 2 HPZ's powering the weapon btw.
Perhaps I could just raise the spikes up with extenders. 1070

Site News and Feedback / Blocking users could be easier.« on: February 07, 2013, 06:36:11 AM »
Last time I was here and people suggested blocking/ignoring users, I had a look around and couldn't find it. This time I have noticed you need to go to your own profile and add their names to an ignore list. Most forums I have been on simply have a block user option on everyone's profile so you can just go to their profile and block them, surely I'm not the only person who didn't really know this list existed?

I suggest at least moving tournaments and showcases above general discussion, as it stands they are at the bottom of the RA2 section

Off-Topic Discussion / Re: Return - with 1 condition« on: February 07, 2013, 05:51:39 AM »make sure you do this FIRST is you DO plan on returning- I explained to ACAMS in a PM that I never joined the group, the whole argument took place in general off-topic, I didn't think anyone else would listen due to the hostility I was met with at the time. I know there will always be idiots around Redline, craig and plazmic but usually they are dealt with, unfortunately that wasn't the case when I left. Not much I can do about it by myself and to be honest I was saddened by the apparent lack of respect/trust I had gained in my time here when I was involved in the argument. I was actually the one who asked for general off-topic so I guess the confusion caused was my fault. 1074
Off-Topic Discussion / Return - with 1 condition« on: February 07, 2013, 05:30:19 AM »
I'm thinking about returning on one condition, Total immunity from BS such as trolling and name calling. I will be able to host tournaments (in a speedily fashion as always) work on AI packs and maybe post some new bots.
I did put a lot of effort into my work here and was sad to have to throw a lot of it away but I wanted to make a statement that I will not be toyed with. I'm here to have fun not to be mocked by some trolls. So if you would like some faster run tournaments and some more AI packs I'm more then happy to provide such things given the terms of the return are met. I don't think it's too much to ask. 1075

Best wishes to ACAMS, running a place like this must be pretty stressful so a break may be what is needed to get your health back in check. Good luck with the lady business and with getting healthy.
Good luck Trov running this forum, have a feeling you're going to need it :) but I have confidence in you doing a great job. 1077

more then 8 months later from original post and still not into videos/brackets, weren't there rules against slow paced tournaments? If not surely there should be.

I knew if I did this sh** I'd get flak that's why I didn't do it before leaving. just FYI enigma started being a dick before me saying crap like I sound like his grandpa and that no one gives a sh**. I was just complaining about the stuff in that topic that was popping up all over the forum and I give a sh** the forum has become like this. >Leaving, won't be back.I won't be back but I still need to reply, it wouldn't mean anything if I just left it here. how aboutBecause the game is "broken" apparently, IMO people just aren't trying hard enough to create new bots that aren't clones etc. Also don't tell them to notice of the game because they will hate you for it too. and to all these pathetic man up comments I say, No I came here for fun not to have my "manhood" tested by people who like to push my buttons, I came here to play the game, share bots, create tournaments and create AI packs NOT to talk about sex, fetishes and MLP. You guys have lost direction, I tried to get my tournaments more attention but it didn't work and now most of you hate me for it? It's a robot arena 2 forum before anything else. This ain't the first sh**storm to hit the forum either is it? If people think HX is cool for saying sh** like "If you can't take the heat.. drink bleach" then what real nice community we have. So everyone's hating on me for: *trying to get attention for my tournaments. *because I liked the old days where people actually gave a sh**. You guys made a camwhore thread for attention seeking that is now 123 pages long! and you complain about me wanting some attention for a tournament that I made for you guys? helpful advice: *Instead of ignoring people, give feedback on how to improve. 123's post in my other thread about losing interest is a prime example of HELPFUL feedback, instead of stirring sh** he actually showed the kind of person he was and it's what we need more of. *Instead of saying "... is broke" try and make a fun unique tournament to inspire designs, build a cool new bot, try to build a new BW (they have barely been touched yet). *Say thanks, honestly people invest times into things Trovaner made a new arena that gives people new ways to play and when I released it with the AI pack there is only one thanks for his hard work? It does not hurt to say thanks. |
