I don't see what the big deal is. What drives you away from the video game that you HAVE to leave right in the middle of it if it's not some emergency? Mommy calling you for dinner or to bring in groceries and that's about it.


I don't graduate until June, so yes actually, some of us actually still have parents that tell us to do pointless shit at a moments notice. It isn't really our fault.

This has been taken into consideration already, dudes.

You know....it's easy enough to ask them if there is anything that needs to be done within the next 40 minutes.

You might even impress them by showing some initiative.

Basically, I think this is a totally fair rule.

Look at it this way:

If it's truly an 'emergency' (as much as raking leaves or taking out the trash can be an emergency), then not only does the dude having to go do this errand have to suffer, but also everyone else playing the PUG.

If it's not something real, then the prick that rages gets to call the shots because he can and everybody BUT him suffers the consequences and he gets the feeling of utter prick satisfaction that some of these dudes thrive on.

The latter will be avoided at all costs if dudes are subject to the ban, IMO.

But, I'm open to any suggestions dudes have to deter peeps like trk from going ragespec/afk/disco/recon almost once every pug.

What else could we do? You dudes wanna just keep living with low-quality pugs or you got any better ideas?

Not liking this whole standpoint of "guilty till proven innocent (and then still suffering the same consequences regardless)". Really though I really only rq when jawa yells at me in vent for things like killing the demo instead of the reborn boss at the hangar lift, so that the demo wouldn't thermal me while I was killing the reborn boss and finish the video game.

Anyway, we're getting a new server or two. That is the only solution to this problem since some of you can't be reasoned with.

Ya, 'cause your admin record over the years has been perfect, right?

I personally won't visit your server for the same reason I quit going to the ex boards and wafflz vent.

Wouldn't be here, most likely, if Guard didn't own these boards.

A phone call is an important emergency?

I ignore even my GF, if she calls while I'm gaming.

Leave a message, mofos, and I'll maybe stop gaming if you're dying or something. :)

On the rare occasion that my company calls me, I'll take the call and keep on playing.

You kiddies need to take out the trash, rake the lawn, feed the cat, walk the dog, clean your room, and brush your teeth before you even sit down at the computer anyways. :D
