Board Thread:Frustrations and venting/@comment-11784273-20130920163511/@comment-11784273-20130922224052

I posted this in another thread and I thought I would share it in here,



I know I said I was done with this site, but I have to respond to this.....with all joking and humor aside.

 I am actually am not a "spy", the truth is that you and some others made it to where I don't even want to post on here, thus why I started getting involved with the Facebook pages. I actually lurked here for a while and never posted trying to find out more about the game, but GOC's attitude and arrogance towards some people on here bugged me so much I started posting on here, first with my IP guest account, then with a real account. I'm not going to get personal but GOC strikes me as an internet tough guys, as do you and sometimes I find it amusing to remind people how they are posting online and are not as badass as they assume they are.

When I posted the itsme5712 thread I was really curious, because I interested in subcultures and how they work sometimes, and the TFL gaming scene is a subculture of its own. The way that you and others reacted was some of the most pathetic and childish stuff I had scene. I was called everything from a sexist, to a troll. By the way people, you guys use the term “troll” in the wrong context. Just because someone disagrees with you they are not a troll, now if they are just saying stuff to get a reaction out of you, then they are a troll

When it comes to my opinion of the user itsme5712 I have said it plenty of times, and you know my opinion on it, but I have to say either way the user is an asshole and is arrogant, making YouTube videos bragging about how much better they are at the game and how they spent over 900 bucks and then calling out some other player. I honestly think that is the main thing that put people off to the user, was the arrogance, and arrogance that also GOC has if I may add. You guys acted as if your holly shrine had been attacked, which even enflamed people more. I found the behavior of some to be pathetic, blindly assuming everything they were told was true, but hey, you could say the same for me I suppose because you guys are so fanatical about them.

I never screamed for the user to be banned, but it didn’t bother me that they were. Does it bother me they are using another screen name? No not really, but I do find it amusing that the user acts as if they are better player than everyone because they spend over 900 bucks and play every day. I think that if any of us could afford that luxury we could do just as well. The user’s behavior could very well be called “trolling”

The   fucked up thing is I met some pretty down to earth family men who have similar interest (fantasy football and beer!) holly shit there are some "tough" guys here, screaming coward every which way but up and using the word troll in the wrong context. You say something someone doesn't get along with "TROLL!" is screamed on here more than “AMEN” in a southern church.

I noticed that here way before the itsme5712 debacle.
