Community

[Ballistic]

Also this entire community is controlled by very little people which means this is an oligarchy not democracy.

However, the admins share their news about changing the game, site etc. and also ask us what we think should be changed and consider it. The amount of admins atm is just right, and all of the admins are good, responsible and fair imo.

How the community is being ran

[Jdrew]

No one every tries to do anything though. I am really not understanding why you care so much. If you have something to say you say it and then when enough people agree with you people help you make your idea happen. I think all of this fighting stuff is just going to hurt our current state.

I am lost at the conversation at this point. I'd be grateful to anyone who summarizes the entire thread so we reach a general consensus.

You do realize I'm talking about how people insult each other during an argument...? I'm just echoing Dan's words, because that's what leads to Flame wars.

So you're saying that every flame war EVER is dan's fault?

Yeah, Dan's ban reason was pretty ironic, but hey, he deserved it either way. And it isn't even a permaban so I'm sure we will see more of him soon...

As I said before, if you weren't around the beginning, you don't understand.

P.S Why the fuck did he use my words in his argument.

Usually when people use your word in an argument, it means that they don't care about your side or don't care about arguing at all.

Instead of making points like I have been doing recently.

Points that seem valid to yourself*

He also had a poor argument, and resorted to insulting people.

Here's a little life lesson. When someone is above you in position, they don't really have to explain themselves to you. Grow up.

That's the poorest way to go about anything

So is blaming him for your life problems.

I would like to think the goal is to preserve the pre-1.0 experience. Now that the community has OpenSpades the community can do what ever modification to the game they like. Which will be nice to see.

So the goal is to preserve the pre-1.0 experience, but what does the rest of the community think?

Lincent, you seem a bit naive. Which are you here for? The classic Ace of Spades experience or the community? Well, technically speaking, this is the classic community experience, too. People thinking that they are hot shit because they made a forums account.

People are mad because they don't get enough attention as they want.

Good man right here.

Quit blaming your problems on the staff. Your problems are your own faults.

[Captain_Pi]

Honestly I'd rather just drop the thread or altogether lock it. In retrospect it was made by a demented idiot just to redirect the fact that he's a complete douchebag on the forums to his antagonizing of Jagex. It's not worth dawdling about [currently in topic]. We don't need everyone to chip in on their two cents.

yfw BlockBuster is a casual on the Jagex forums.

^I think it was the steam discussions he was banned from

[ReubenMcHawk]

Well yeah, nobody ever pretended this was a democracy.

Also just one little suggestion for everyone: ignore Arkger, he's living in a fantasy world where every post he makes is an intellectual masterpiece and to disagree with him makes you an inferior pleb. Replying to and trying to reason with him only encourages him.

Oh and for the 100th time, the game is never going to change to your desire, and the staff have no reason at all to sit down one day and decide on a "main" version of the game, that actually goes against the thinking behind the community in the first place. Just play what you want and shut up about it, it's not that hard.

Aye. Thread locked. :3

[Arkger]

So you're saying that every flame war EVER is dan's fault?

I hope you're kidding.

As I said before, if you weren't around the beginning, you don't understand.

No, I don't think you quite understand what I said. I said the ban reason was Ironic, what does that have to do with how long I've been here?

Usually when people use your word in an argument, it means that they don't care about your side or don't care about arguing at all.

Do you even know what I was talking about? lol

Points that seem valid to yourself*

Yeah, no. They were actually points.

Here's a little life lesson. When someone is above you in position, they don't really have to explain themselves to you. Grow up.

Yep, you obviously don't know who the hell I was talking about. I was talking about Blockbuster, please read about what I was talking about before trying to make a deal of it.

So is blaming him for your life problems.

I'm blaming Blockbuster for my life problems. Ok.

Just read what you are talking about before you try to be snide and smart about it. This was the type of thing I was talking about. Prime Example.

Oh, Just saw this too:

The more and more you post the more and more I realize that you don't listen to a word I say. Where is the basis for this large accusation? All you ever do is try to put down my points without even thinking about it. But if you wanna play like that; I guess I can.
I COULD SAY:

"Oh shut the fuck up Reuben, you don't know anything you are talking about. All you ever do is whine about anyone who has something they don't like,"

Or I could go all Blockbuster... but I won't.

(Even though the first thing I said was true)

Ill break it down further.

ignore Arkger, he's living in a fantasy world

Lolno. What in god's name are you talking about? Again, there is no use in that phrase besides trying to make me angry/irratated.

where every post he makes is an intellectual masterpiece and to disagree with him makes you an inferior pleb.

This sounds like you are talking about yourself. because everyone of your posts (unlike mine), that someone doesn't agree with you; you insult and put them down like they were dumber then you. I'll go fetch quotes later. You always stick in words like "moron", "melodramatic", or phrases like "Living in a (Something) World", etc etc. I just argue my point, and stick to just that. You are the one who does stuff like that, not I.

I mean this in the nicest way possible: Reuben, what you do is not "discussing", or even "Debating". Watch an actual debate, or an actual discussion, and notice how people talk about the Points; and not the people giving them out. Instead of refuting your point, you insult me and barely talk about the point. Stuff like that is why threads get locked. If we are to debate, don't be petty about it. Actually argue my point and prove no one should listen to me instead of being a kid about it.

I agree with this post, this thread has turned into flame wars and personal attacks.

You usually post the same thing every time, so yeah the words do bleed together after a while. For instance I've said dozens of times "I don't have to prove anything to you, you do it, and everyone else acknowledges it as well". If you're going to imply that they're all stupid for feeling that way, then I sure hope the weather is nice up on that pedestal.

"Oh shut the fuck up Reuben, you don't know anything you are talking about. All you ever do is whine about anyone who has something they don't like,"

Lol, I know exactly what I'm saying. If anything you're talking about yourself there, you're the one always butthurt that people prefer playing a version of a game that you don't like. Most of my posts on the matter are "play what you want, and if you think everyone should drop everything to appease you then go fuck yourself".

ignore Arkger, he's living in a fantasy world

Lolno. What in god's name are you talking about? Again, there is no use in that phrase besides trying to make me angry/irratated.

That's the term I'd use for someone who's completely detached from everything everyone else says. Seriously, I haven't once seen you try and even comprehend what anyone else says. All you do is put yourself on a pedestal and talk about how they're an "inferior debater" or some other dweebish shit that nobody cares about.

Yes I call morons morons. If they don't like it then boo-hoo. And I call people on being melodramatic about some massive "crisis" regarding needing to fix the community right now or something else, because this community's been around for years, and it's kind of weird to see people that have been around for a few months at best talking about how the game is dying, if anything they're fairweather fans and are losing interest.

And yeah this was just big words for "no u".

why am i still posting here

It's funny because that's exactly what you're doing right here. Seriously get off of your pedestal, you're not better than me, no matter how many times you insist it. <3
