Scott & Gameranger

[jn.blackhand]

it's good to see that this SAME EXACT TOPIC still comes up about once every month. and while the posters change, the posts themselves stay very much the same.

Yeah, I would  have to agree with Grifter about this, Kevill is a rude (for the most part) aussie. I remember one instance when I asked Kevill about the Terminus servers, and why they were up or even a feature of GR at all. <sarcasm>I was replied with this extremely nice comment (probably to explicit for these forums).</sarcasm> I suppose I  have known (known put loosely) Kevill for a year know and I probably know more about him then I ever wanted to know (this could be considered a bad thing).


Though you must keep in mind that if you had to baby sit 80,000 10 year olds every day, you'd be a little tetchy.


I'm not sticking up for the man, just playing a devils advocate.


Now stop the whining, that's my job.

I don't see why Evill gets a bad rep from everyone. From my time on GR, I knew him to be a mostly fair guy with a sometimes spiteful sense of humor. People come in with the claims "OMG I GOT BANNED FOR LOOKING AT EVILL THE WRONG WAY BLAH BLAH BLAH." Yeah, I can remember times where someone would be a dick in main chat and get banned, but 99% of the time they earned it. Of course Evill would rub it in some, but wouldn't you if you had to deal with so many morons. The real dicks are some of Evill's cronies. Most of them need to remove their heads from their asses.

[Brain]

hey maybe they could use that head remover that someone was selling to ak.  i know that ad is somewhere in these threads...

[Grifter]

Yeah Ace, I have to say that I haven't seen anyone actually get banned and not deserver it (except that evil has egged on a few to get them to cross that line, which isn't quite fair).  But my own experience with him is that he's been rude to me the few times I've tried to talk to him.  And not rude as in ignoring me... but treating me like I'm a kid wasting his time (which I'm sure he gets a lot of, but not everyone).  Also, yeah, those sock puppets (or the "ban - ban" greek chorus) is much more annoying.  Those are the guys I'd like to see banned.

[Bondo]

I don't think zak deserved a PERMAban just for telling Scott to go fuck his mother or whatever it was he said.  I can understand a shorter ban but no talking deserves a perma.  That should be reserved for people who actually hurt the quality of the gaming by hacking or what not.

[Brain]

i saw someone get banned for saying they liked to pirateship games about 5 times
what a dumbass
those are the ppl that deserve bans
the only thing thery are good for is a laugh when they get the boot

[Grifter]

I'll disagree with you there Bondo... Evill provides a service to us for free... we aren't paying for it.  So, that gives him the right to chose both the crime and punishment.  

Now, that said, I don't think he should be a dick to people, or prod people into saying shit.  It should be clear where he draws the line (and I don't think he makes it clear enough).  

[Bondo]

Oh, he certainly has the right, but that doesn't mean he is right.  My point was that while he is free to do what he is, he is hurting GR by doing so.

[Grifter]

True, but with no real competition today.. he's only got the incentive of being a really good human being.... it's hard to hurt GR while there is not alternative today (none that most people would chose).

[Asterax]

Interesting, didn't I just say what Grifter and Bondo said  before, just combined in one post?

[Grifter]

More or less.. but it bears repeating... since the debate goes on...

[Brain]

are you to just doing this to raise grifters post count
or is it just that you allways take different sides of an issue

[Bondo]

Just because I'm at 1000 doesn't mean it is beyond me to raise my post count by getting in a big debate with Grifter (odd how me and him are in arguments in about every thread isn't it).  Maybe it is because I'm the one ass that is willing to try and not become a dumbass in the process.

[Grifter]

LOL...

Lots of people argue with me, and I respect all the ones that can at least front a logical argument.... it's the dumbasses that can't even read what is written or understand it that you have to worry about becoming.  

Bondo, the difference between you and Rapid is the dumb part.... I can respect a different opinion as long as there is some reason.. thinking... information behind it.... it's the sock puppets I can't stand (that goes of the ones that blindly parrot anyone... you, Ace, me.. whoever...  Rapid and Rom are/were great examples of this.

So, even if you are wrong... which you are often =P... I can still respect your opinion.  Besides, it's not like I'm always right, I've changed my mind on many things...

[Bondo]

I was just commenting on how most people that argue with you get trampled upon, often to become dumbasses due to brain damage caused by the blunt truama of being hit on the head with one of your massive posts.  I'm just hard headed so I can stand it.  

[Grifter]

Most people that argue with me are dumbasses before they start.... I just point that little flaw out for all to see... =P

[Bondo]

A guy can't even compliment Grift without getting a smart remark  

[Ace]

Well you can if you are a moderator and remember that you have no scruples about messing with his posts. Therefore...

GRIFT, what lovely pale skin you have!

[Brain]

i think  brain aspxyation and acute boredom has something to do with it to bondo
afrer all grifter is such a long winded bastard he could suck all the air out of the astrodome
