Tired of seeing people complain about everything.

Don't worry, it will be just as disappointing when you decide to come back. The boards are surprisingly consistent.

TBH though, i miss the old forums. There people atleast made an effort to have intelligent threads. Nowadays it's just fuck this and fuck that..

So post positive things.

For example, you have you SEEN...yeah I don't know.

I know. Not wanting cheaters in ranked, is now a "complaint"

I guess this is the Tencent influence starting to creep in.

It's all about how it is said, not about what is said. People could easily talk about issues in a civil manner, but instead they act like spoiled children who are not getting their way.

I suppose that shouldn't be a surprise in any case. Just look at politics, most people IRL don't understand how to stay civil when there is a disagreement, so we can't exactly expect it from people when anonymity is involved.

This country was founded by complainers who didn't want to pay their taxes.

redniwediS4 votes

They were fine paying taxes, they just wanted to be represented.

Troll Armada1 votes

Those complainers... What about all the positive things King George did?

redniwediS2 votes

Like lose a very large piece of land simply because he didn't want to give some of his own loyal citizens the rights they deserved?

:^)

I'd call it a positive thing. Long live the U.S. of A.

wooosh!

Ignoring your point is not the same as missing it.

Troll Armada1 votes

It kind of is tho.

I get that you're a troll, as the name would suggest, but the colonists were "complaining" about valid reasons. For instance, gun control, taxes, being forced to quarter soldiers, not having a representative in Parliament, etc. etc.

I don't call that complaining; I call that wanting freedom.

Troll Armada1 votes

Can you really not understand how this might be a matter of perspective?

redniwediS2 votes

It's hardly a matter of perspective. The colonists were loyal to the king and the king betrayed them simply because they were really far away.

He needed to tax them to make up for the poor post war economy, but he messed up in how he taxed them. What part of this is up for interpretation?

Troll Armada1 votes

wooooooosh!

redniwediS2 votes

Hardly.

EDIT: Just so this can finally end; don't use sarcasm on the internet if you don't know how to use it properly.

You'll either mislead people or you'll find people like me who enjoy replying with overly serious replies, neither of which were your intended goal.

Here's a few tips:

  1. Unless you know who you're talking to don't use sarcasm on topics people are serious about (aka tencent).
  2. Learn when to drop the sarcasm.
  3. Use the :^) face instead of woosh. It has the same meaning to people who know what's going on, but without the small insult attached.

Sigh. I see that you're a little confused.

Sarcasm can be difficult to identify and interpret, even in the best of times. As such, it can create a sense of inadequacy. It's okay. Not everyone has the aptitude to understand sarcasm. It's really more helpful if you see this ability in the form a spectrum.The fact that you do eventually comprehend sarcasm, however slowly, is something you should be proud of, not embarrassed about.

I've ignored your list of "tips" simply because you have no credibility or authority on these topics.

However, I did find the idea amusing. Like something a precocious child might say. Thank you for that.

Whatever helps you sleep at night.

Feel free to belittle me some more if you need to protect your self image. I don't take insults to heart, particularly around here.

You know the truth, I know the truth, and by the looks of it most people who read this do too.

Keep practicing mate, you'll get the hang of it. :^)

Okay, so by that logic, slaves were whiney little shits for wanting freedom. Women in the suffrage movement were just whining bitches. Martin Luther King Jr. was just a whining bastard.

Troll Armada1 votes

Perhaps you don't realize this, but I'm the one who agrees with you.

Spizzle90001 votes

I'm aware but us Americans do not take sarcasm directed towards our country lightly.
