Title: When??
Post by: [:] Mr. T on April 29, 2005, 02:15:17 pm
So when's season XI start? The news says "in May". May starts on Monday already. Can you be more exact?

Thanks!

Unfortunatly not T, but the guys are hard at work on preparations - there are a few jobs to be done before the season can be made ready however like the appointment of new Admin/s. We'll make sure everyone is kept upto date, and the guys are more than aware that everyone wants to get their teeth stuck into to the new season, so it really will be as soon as can possibly be managed! :)

Cheers

I can imagine it's tough, but can we get a ballpark estimate? A week? Two weeks? End of the month?

I logged on to GR the other night and there was only one room open! Without a season, the GhR community is floundering.

What about the All Star game to hold us over?

Thanks!

DAMN doesn't have to hold up the community. I'm glad their taking their time, especially after they had to rush last season and exclude the sheep fat system. If you guys need a tournament of some kind, do what we did in the RS days, and make a cheap website and run one. I think DAMN's between season tournaments only happens once a year.

At least try to be a bit more polite, eh Mr. T?

That's a good idea.

The way he positioned the blame of inactivity on DAMN. If they knew when things are happening, I'm sure they wouldn't hold it back.

i call bullshit on your comment, mysterio.

if anything his comment actually praises the DBL for building and maintaining the activity of the league.  all he is asking for is a fucking estimate of time.

Weakspot, out of curiosity, why are you spamming this thread with foul language? Perhaps you disagree, but that doesn't mean you have to go out of your way to add a flame. The way it is written it leads one to believe that he is blaming DAMN for the inactivity. As I said above, I'm 100% sure, like every other season, DAMN will release the date when they know. They could be busy working on a major revision that will benefit us all, but because of people demanding ht season now, it will get left out.

Well, we are hoping Mauti is going to re appear soon and league us all to another season, while he is not here, the other admins have been hammering out rules, thinking about modifying ladders and all that good fun stuff.


Title: Re: When??
Post by: theweakspot on May 03, 2005, 08:41:20 am
sorry myst, i thought you spoke french.

i didnt spam foull language nor was i flaming.  just pointing how T's post could not possibly be interpreted as defamation of the DBL in anyway at all.  Anyone else think it does?

the league survives on its members, and many members really enjoy playing on the DBL.  Its a symbiotic relationship.  We just wanted an estimate.

T even said 'Thanks' for heaven's sake!


Title: Re: When??
Post by: spike on May 03, 2005, 10:37:26 am
Bum de bum de bum. This seems to be a pretty pointless fight kids, lets just give it up and shake hands, eh.


Title: Re: When??
Post by: BFG on May 03, 2005, 11:35:14 am
Indeed. Myst your concern for our delicate feelings are appreciated but there was no feeling of blame or insult or any negative input recieved at this end regarding T's post.

As Spike has said we're partially awaiting the return of Mauti so that we can put the flags up and sound the trumpets, but there are a few rule adjustments to rules that need to be made - and there are discussions regarding the lack of activity of some ladders - and demand for the introduction of new ladder.

So in terms of a estimate as long as Mauti hasn't run away to Hawaii with a hot red headed hula girl, we should be able to get the next season started within the next fourtnight. - don't take that as solid though please, for all we know mauti is allready on the plane with his grass skirt!!

My 2 Cents...

Because of OS X 10.4 Release Last Friday I would like to see a small delay on starting Season 11. Some people have been experiencing some crashing of their applications (Games/Browser). Give the members a chance to have their Games up-to-date if possible.


Title: Re: When??
Post by: BFG on May 03, 2005, 06:44:18 pm
I did realize there had been such problems! Any Games or applications (is gameranger ok i haven't logged in for weeks) specifically that are causing problems Macuber?


Title: Re: When??
Post by: Macuber on May 03, 2005, 06:56:14 pm
Well.. just useing Safari 2.0 and trying to scroll down to your last post crashed Safari 4 times. Turned on FireFox and was able to get here. Apprently some ppl are experiencing RvS not working. For myself... Ghost crashed 1 x  others a few times more.


Title: Re: When??
Post by: ~Po~ TiroFino on May 03, 2005, 08:51:45 pm
That is why I recommend not to install Tiger just yet. Wait for a patch or two!


Title: Re: When??
Post by: [:] Mr. T on May 03, 2005, 09:15:30 pm
I think Mysterio thought I was being rude because so many people just assume that's my intention when I post. Truth is, I didn't intend my question to be rude at all. Please note that I said "thanks!" at the end of of it.

I said this to Sheix the other day... if you have beef with me, please be a man and PM me through our team's site http://s7.invisionfree.com/Special_Forces_Clan/index.php? and tell me. I'm tired of the haters flaming me publicy like a little bitches.

And to Tiro's point... NEVER install the first release of any OS. That's just begging for trouble.

Thank you and have a pleasant and productive day.

Tiger has given major speed improvements to my games, nothing else. What computers are being effected? Processor/type?

BTW, BFG + Spike, you might note that I didn't fight with anyone there. I was simply pointing out what I thought what a comment that was questionable. If you don't think so, good, however that doesn't justify you standing by and letting weak start/continue a flame war. Then again, you can always just say you saw no such flame. Oh well.

-T's post just cut me off there-

To that, T, I don't even know who the hell you are. I saw a comment that was questionable and questioned it. If you have some sort of GhR reputation, excuse me, I skipped that point in history.

Myst, T. knock it off

Title: Re: When??

Sorry Kat, no date yet, I could make one up for you if you like.

Ah..just couldnt resist here...

I'll start by saying I didnt find anything accusatory OR impolite about T's post about the new season(and i read it a lot of different ways)...and still not sure how Myst extracted a rude inference there.....gotta go with Weak's call here...Spamming a post with flame-bait like myst did is the worse offence.

HOWEVER, I cant say the same about T's two replies to my post in his forum...and then of course again here, implying that by calling out his rude-ass behavior there, im somehow a bitch...
FACT IS, i was replying to a request by HIS clan mates for solutions to how to set up cbs for FTF.

***cb'ing in ftf.... what do you guys think?  Please leave check out this thread.... http://s7.invisionfree.com/Special_Forces_Clan/index.php?showtopic=131 and add your input as to how a ftf cb might be set up. ***(weakspot)

 
I experimented with several solutions in order to answer Special Forces REQUEST for feedback. posted my results, and heres what i got by him in return..

***I think you've spent way too much time thinking about this.
I vote for tactical games. If I want to go head to head on mouse skills, I'd play a game that's designed for that ---> Halo, Quake, Ms. Pac Man, etc.***(Mr T)  

Gettin sniped for workin on a solution and posting YOUR benefit..nothing bitch-like there, huh T?
The ONLY reason i even posted in that forum was that THEY ASKED FOR THE FEEDBACK., and got this snarky little item in return...

 ***Guest... thanks for all your efforts. I hope everything works out for you.***(Mr T) ...i mean wtf?

Hiding behind the semantics of that phrase to claim that was meant as support is as chickenshit as it gets, then say I flamed you?  Theres a HUGE difference between calling you out publically and flaming you...The minute you call someone a 'little bitch' for attempting to help you, takes away your right to whine about being flamed. First option would have been to act like an adult in your forum when addressing an effort someone put forward for YOUR benefit....

no good deed goes unpunished

Flaming on *DAMN is bad enough, bringing an argument from another forum to *DAMN is worse. You wanna flame him on his forum, go for it, but please do not bring it here.


Title: Re: When??

why don't you just lock this thread... and as soon as you know the date, you unlock it and post it.


Title: Re: When??
Post by: spike on May 04, 2005, 03:48:29 am
I'd like to think I can leave the thread open because people are mature enough not to spam and flame it. It's getting pretty damn close to the point where I do close it though.


Title: Re: When??
Post by: [:] Mr. T on May 04, 2005, 03:55:31 am
Sheix... congratulations. You're the new President of the IHMT (I Hate Mr. T) fan club.

And on behalf of the rest of the poor people reading this, thank you for spending at least 30mins on your last post. All that going back and forth, cutting and pasting... what a great effort you went to show everyone just how cool you are. Thanks! I hope being cool works out well for you.

Bring your bitch-assed complaints to my forum and leave the rest of the community alone.

You can lock it now spike :-)
