Oldschool server?

[frost702]

But, I would come back if the devs restored the game to its former glory via an old school server or such.

Many would. But apparently according to Frelorn, undertaking a new project that would actually require developers (laid em all off remember?) isn't gonna happen.

Here? Yes. It's Turbine's playground. They make and enforce all the rules, as they see fit. Not sure why you can't or won't see this.

I see it just fine. I'm saying myself that they make and enforce all the rules. They are just too decent (especially lately) to do certain things that you would have them do. The truly disturbing part is where you urge them to do unsavory things and then claim they wouldn't then be unsavory because Turbine can do whatever they want here. That's some truly world class circular reasoning.

I'd hate to see (or live under) you in any position of authority.

If you think I post because I care, other than the minimal extent required to want to bother to reply, "mistaken" is too weak a word to describe you. I post because I find it entertaining to do so, especially in reply to folks who take it all way too seriously (as you seemingly do). "Entertainment" is the same reason you post. And the same reason I play the game. And the same reason you play the game.

Keep telling yourself all of that. And we'll keep rolling our eyes at you.

Anything else you'd care to be wrong about?

The "else" implies I've been wrong about something prior lately. The only thing I've apparently been wrong about recently is when I was reading prior posts of yours and not realizing that your primary motivation on these forums is just to make it about other posters instead of any particular issue being discussed. You're here to entertain yourself at other's expense. And you probably tell yourself that doesn't make you a bad person because it's all on the interwebs and that your playthings are bad people (who, indeed, deserve to be removed). Perhaps this is all just because your life is very hollow and lonely.

I'm sure you'll tell me I'm wrong about that too. Sure. Sure I am.

You'd like to see the "trolls" who don't still play the game removed. What about the "trolls" who still play and enjoy it?

You care. You care the most! ^.^

You mad bro? You seem upset. = |

I don't really care what they do.

Unsavory things such as ...?

The "else" implies I've been wrong about something prior lately.

Would you also have it implied that the Sun shines? That water is wet?

If thinking that makes you feel better, feel free.

You're really bad at this. It's like you're trying to aggravate me and others. But you just seem to be getting more upset because you're only succeeding in aggravating yourself.

Also, I think it's pretty apparent that you're embarrassed by what you were advocating. So you play dumb about it and actually pretend to ask what it is we could possibly referring to. . .

You're adorable.

I stopped reading this forum shortly after the previous regime took over. I've only started reading again recently having heard of the positive change in community management. I generally only look for posts that either indicate where the game is heading (I see no real hope here) or threads such as this supporting an old school server. I'm no longer even familiar with most forum personalities.


I say this to stress that even though I don't have a dog in this fight, it is quite clear to me that maxjenius simply does not have the ability to adequate comprehend how thoroughly outmatched he has been in his exchange with Hurin. It hasn't even been remotely close.

[BangoTwinkletoes]

Oh man the dynamic duo of trolldom are tag teaming the same thread??? RUN FOR YOUR LIVES!!!

Have +10 rep, good Sir!!!

[maxjenius]

You're really bad at this. It's like you're trying to aggravate me and others.

Funny, that's exactly what I think about you.

You're adorable.

Your attempt at condescension is noted.

[bucko39]

Clearly, you are a one trick pony if this is what you have to resort to.

Bow out gracefully (if that's possible)...at this point you're just embarrassing yourself.

No I don't think so. I do t even think you're beating Hurin and that's saying something. You "soon" trolls are pretty ineffective without a big mob and your head honcho to back you up. You keep trying though chief as slowly but surely one after another we continue to take out the trash and clean up this community. Either behave or make a fool out of yourself. Up to u.

[Hurin]

When he types three words and receives 50+ words in reply, I'm pretty sure he considers that a "win." At that point, what's actually said is immaterial.

I don't think he has ever had any material. Like most of these apologists they don't really care about the game or turbine, they just want to look down their noses at people online.

I had just taken a bite out of a Hostess Snowball when I saw this and almost choked on it! Good grief, this is funny!

[maxjenius]

No I don't think so.

That statement is 4/5 correct.

We can safely make that assumption when you post. You'll have better luck if you let your house plants compose your replies.

We don't keep any houseplants. What am I supposed to do now!?!

[maxjenius]

Plastic ones will do.

[Hurin]

Plastic ones will do.

Quick question before I go out and buy fake houseplants. . . does it bother you that you demean the intelligence of someone who so handily dismantled your arguments before you just descended into making simple and juvenile insults?

Isn't that sorta like losing a game of one-on-one to someone and then just standing around telling the other player and anyone who will listen that the person who just handily beat you is the worst one-on-one player you've ever seen?

It's okay man. I know you look back on what you were advocating and now realize how distasteful it was. That you choose to respond to that introspection by lashing out at those who enlightened you, though, is unfortunate.

Do you think you can swim to the Moon? Jump 50 feet straight up? Run a mile in 3 minutes? I'd like to get a handle on the boundaries of your delusions.

That's a good question I have for turbine apologists. Think you can give me an answer?

Let's go find one of these so-called "apologists" and ask. You look over there, I'll look over here.
