ATTN SIEGERS:

[Roflraptor]

I don't think anyone started out in this game at the level they are now. The disparity between us and them is more due to knowledge than skill and it's not all common sense. I think, perhaps, it's worth giving these guys a bit of a break when it comes to raging at their mistakes. Just let them know what they have to do rather than groaning about it. They'll pick it up soon enough.

[CHEW]

I've always had a mic, it's just.. kind of.. broke-ish.

I'll be getting a new mic (or headset or something) and vent around new years prob, soon as I get some decent cash flow.

We can take up a collection. I will buy 1 less 6 pack of beer.

Nobody's ever learned by blissfully being unaware that there's even a problem. If you think everything's just fine, you're going to continue to make mistakes.

I personally believe only girls let little things like "how polite is the person criticizing me being?" get in the way of improving myself. If I'm making mistakes, and someone's explaining that mistake to me, I don't care how many times they tell me I suck or call me a fucking idiot, I'm going to listen until I get it.

I realize some people are little girls who like to wear dresses and sip from tea cups with their pinkies out or whatever, so I guess for them it makes sense to be polite or whatever. I just don't see the point in ignoring good advice because someone doesn't respect me. Respect should be earned, and you don't earn it by sucking.


Svail was born a god btw Duo. When he was underperforming that was his cat playing.

Siegers lost to the abusiveness of the community: A few.
Siegers lost to politeness: None.

I don't think you have to be polite. "Oh my dearest noob, please don't break the glass using mines! Thank you so much!" clearly wouldn't fly. But the dickishness can be toned down.

And for the record, this isn't directed at Duo because everyone does this. I even do this playing on Tempest sometimes.

I wouldn't ask this horror of anyone.

This is true, unfortunately jakab the cat isnt as good at siege as jakab the canadian

[GUARD!AN]

I just realized Vail is the only dude I know who owns a cat

[Magyk]

Dogs > Cats.

[Ramshi]

You guys were full on raging over me on Vent right? Yes, I know that I'm making mistakes, but unfortunately, not enough of you guys are around, and pugs don't happen that often. Most of the time I'm playing with idiots in Tempest whos abilities are far worse than mine.
