There are a wide variety of personalities on CAG. What kind of member do you consider yourself.

i dont think jimmiemac is in the wrong here. i think you all are. see the problem is that you are perceiving filthy jizz eating whore as a negative comment. why must jimmiemac be persecuted because of your stereotypes against filthy jizz eating whores. i, myself, am not a filthy jizz eating whore but know a few and they are very good people. one volunteers regularly at a soup kitchen. another reads to the blind. the other... well okay the other is just a filthy jizz eating whore. but im sure jimmiemac was saying it in the good way.
also i suggest this be the last post about this matter before it gets locked like the other.

um, I was a part of that thread. And this thread too. What difference does that make anyway? You made those comments in this thread.
You want a response to your other post? Ok...
Not really. I was the one that poked fun of him because he poked fun of me. And i NEVER stooped THAT low with anyone. Funny a 20 or 30-something year old wants to pick on me out of anyone and he doesn't even know me.
1)With JimmieMac, there is no such thing as too low. In fact, the lower the better.
And 2) He picks on everybody. Don't feel so special.
And don't get me wrong, I'm not hating on you. Just telling you what I see, and how I think you could try to make it better. Just remember, you're always going to run into people you don't like. And if you don't like someone, that's fine. But you have to learn to deal with it a little better. All this pissy-whiny stuff's gotta go, if you want to make it through life at least half-way sane.
And with all that said, I agree whole heartedly with MK9. Since when do filthy jizz eating whores have to be bad people? At at least one point in every woman's life, she becomes a filthy jizz eating whore. Even if it's only once. Trust me.

I'm plenty serious... that's what often bothers people so much, as they can't deal with harsh honesty and a formalization of terms and arguments. Usually they all just spout hackneyed defenses and such... so everything just degrades into madness anyway.
So, in the interest of brevity and sanity, I just skip a few steps every so often.

It's comical to watch your light-heartedness posts because, even at the light they're taken in, they're still incredibly serious like your good nature, whether they want to be or not. And as for seriousness, I meant in other terms of not flame wars/arguments, which usually ensues once you bring up a point that you feel strongly about and someone else disagrees.

This isn't necessarily true either. The women does not have to be necessarily "filthy" when she performs oral sex. Nor does she have to be a whore, but just an average everyday person. In fact, most women (believe it or not guys) don't even swallow jizz. So in order to eat jizz, you must swallow. Therefore, your post is incorrect.

you are taking what jimmiemac said quite literally arent you? im pretty sure he didnt mean filthy as in dirty but rather as in sinful. nor do i think he meant you ate jizz with a knife and fork. the swallowing of jizz is very commonly referred to as the eating of jizz.

ANd no, I am not humorless, but there is a line between mildly poking someone and laughing with them then delivering out a harsh, nasty, degrading comment that was completely uncalled for. Even if it was said in jest, it was a disgusting joke that no one laughed to. Oh, except you of course, metroid.
Clearly you are not on the side of moral and common decency.

Is anyone else sick of all these pointless topics? I hope this one gets locked and people start to learn to shut the hell up or ignore shit.
If you do not agree on something thats fine. This site is about videogames not people getting jizz on their face. Granted there is such a thing as free speech, but every fucking topic lately has become a flame fest. I can understand the thread about cloudspekk( as it was justly trying to provide support for those that had gotten screwed over), but things are getting a little out of hand

Yes.
What people really need to start doing is stop making stupid ass remarks in every thread. It is the endless stupid remarks and pointless topics that have turned this forum into shit.
This place has turned into a F ucking gamefaqs wannabe.

That's because it's drawing from the same base now.
I saw a shift like this was going to happen further down the line back in december... I figured as soon as the deals became more scarce, the regular posters would find something else to spend thier time here... and flamewars and joke topics is it.
With the 2-3 major dumps of new users in that period, it would be foolhardy not to thing that the groups of new people wouldn't alter the demeanor of the boards.
The only way this will change is when: 1. There are more deals, 2. Mods and CheapyD decided to crack down, 3. People decide to change of thier own accord.
3 will most likely never happen. Depending on how bad it gets, 2 is possible, but 1 is the most likely solution. I'd be willing to bet that all of the flame wars will die down dramatically in the 4th quarter, and even in the couple of weeks around E3... if people have something else to talk about, they are much less likely to flame.

I think part of the problem is the large amount of off-gaming-topic threads that have been started lately. Solution? I dunno....as stated above, if you don't want to read it, you aren't forced to. However, I thought we'd be able to police ourselves. Optimism sucks...

well thats quite hypocrytical of all of you (with the exception of casey and roland) since you have participated in more flame wars than me by far. as far as flaming, it was not my intention. i was merely defending jimmiemac who has been taking alot of negativity lately.
i too loathe the off topic forum. the few have ruined it for the many. i usually dont make posts in it with a few exceptions when i think its necessary.

I never said I wasn't involved in it, rather, I just mentioned that it was a slight shift in the posting habits of most of the board, and more likely that not it will normalize itself when there is more interesting deal or game related news about... when that happens, you'll see the number of off topic posts drop by far.
i was merely defending jimmiemac who has been taking alot of negativity lately.
One reaps what one sows. Jimmiemac is a fairly prolific poster, and a good number of his posts have a great deal of negativity in them... if you keep slamming and bashing on people, they are going to retailate.... you just happen to be the 3rd man in on that situation, and if you don't know what you're walking into, you'll just exacerbate the situation by getting irate yourself.
JimmieMac is no angel... he'd probably even tell you that himself.

i know jimmiemac is no angel but i really dont think he means to be hurtful in what he says either. thats merely what i was trying to get across. perhaps i did exacerbate the situation further than need be but we all have our moments of uncontrollable responses.

i dont specifically go to the cheap ass lifestlye or off topic forum but it is meshed in with the latest posts links i use when i come here. and there are topics that i tbelieve to be worthwhile and fun but some ruin it completely. as far as the cloudspekk thread, i completely agree with you that it dragged on far too long. many, while trying to be supportive, were just causing the thread to go very off topic which im sure was not b3b0ps intention when he originally posted. this however is at no fault of mine, since i neither started the thread nor contributed to it except only to say i was being ripped off and then finally i had come to a resolution. however you must agree, that while that the thread became most inflammatory it did serve a very good purpose at its core.

That's where we disagree. JimmieMac specifically posts that way to get a reaction or to try and be hurtful. Unless you are really good friends with a person, calling them a filthy jizz eating whore is probably going to get a negative reaction... and you know that when you post it. Not to mention that JimmieMac has a pattern of posts like this. In the Xbox live "deal" for retailers, he makes a swipe and me, saying "When and if JSweeny can pull him self away from sucking cock he's going to tell you all that even if It IS the evil empire,MicroSoft, it's not right to lie to get something not intended for you".
He's made a pattern of doing this... it's almost his modus oporandi.
If he can go around flinging these things, he more then deserves to have to stick up for himself when people want him to answer to it... when people try to be the third man in and help someone when they aren't fully apprised of the situation, they just exacerabate it... you're helping to propagate that which you say you hate the most. Either you just don't see it and you're making a mistake, or you're purposely doing it, and you're a hypocrite.
i dont specifically go to the cheap ass lifestlye or off topic forum but it is meshed in with the latest posts links i use when i come here.
Yes, but those links do specify which forum the thread if from. If you realy didn't want to read off topic posts, you don't have to.
and there are topics that i tbelieve to be worthwhile and fun but some ruin it completely.
Kind of hard to place an arbitary method like that on it, isn't it? It's ok up until "I" don't think it's fun?

It's not you're fault when a thread goes drastically out of control, but you want to heap blame on others when threads they are involved in do exactly the same? Isn't that a tad bit hypocritical?

yes i may be the third man in as you put it but to say i am not fully apprised of the situation is an assumption you are making. i frequent this site daily and most posts do not go unread. i have also had several private conversations with jimmiemac through pm and am fully aware of his sense of humor. and correct me if im wrong but arent you the third man in this situation?
ive seen you get into some heated flaming and have said some mean things to others on this board. so for you to say jimmiemac is a negative person is hypocrytical of you.
Yes, but those links do specify which forum the thread if from. If you realy didn't want to read off topic posts, you don't have to.
im well aware that the links are labeled by which forum they originate from but as i said some topics i do find worth my time.
Kind of hard to place an arbitary method like that on it, isn't it? It's ok up until "I" don't think it's fun?
its neither hard nor arbitrary. i think we can all agree that topics such as "long hard weiner for trade" is a complete waste of time and totl spam. (although im not sure if it was in off topic or the trading forum, so that may not be the best example, but you get the idea).
It's not you're fault when a thread goes drastically out of control, but you want to heap blame on others when threads they are involved in do exactly the same? Isn't that a tad bit hypocritical?
as i said, i was barely involved in the thread. i made 3 or 4 posts in about 30+ pages. all of which were strictly on topic.
listen jsweeney we could go on like this all night. i know for sure you could and i believe i am up to the task, but really what will be solved. i can prove you to be a hypocrite until my hands become arthritic as could you to me. however i really dont see a point. i think we should just agree to disagree on certain issues and move on since neither of us are directly related to this problem. lets not create another on top of it.

I highly doubt you thouroughly read ever thread that gets posted through the entire day. Even if you did, many of the incendiary comments made would just drift right past you unless you feel the need to protect yourself for defend someone you feel some affection for.
i have also had several private conversations with jimmiemac through pm and am fully aware of his sense of humor. and correct me if im wrong but arent you the third man in this situation?
Nope. I was involved in this dialog long before you felt the need to throw your two cents in.
ive seen you get into some heated flaming and have said some mean things to others on this board. so for you to say jimmiemac is a negative person is hypocrytical of you.
There is a difference between negativity and vulgarity. With the exception of the the "flame the person above you thread", I've rarely, if ever post a vulgarity... and if I did, it wasn't directed at one specific person. I've already shown two occassions where JimmieMac did that... I doubt it would be that difficult to find a few more.
Since I'm don't care for vulgarity all that much, it isn't hypocracy.
im well aware that the links are labeled by which forum they originate from but as i said some topics i do find worth my time.
Again, your arbitary standard rears it's ugly head. A post is only worthwhile if metroidkiller9 deems it so.
its neither hard nor arbitrary.
Considering you aren't presenting complains about the stucture, accuracy or validity of threads, and only applying your arbitary standard of the worth of the content of the threads. Considering you aren't CheapyD, that's not going to fly.
i think we can all agree that topics such as "long hard weiner for trade" is a complete waste of time and totl spam. (although im not sure if it was in off topic or the trading forum, so that may not be the best example, but you get the idea).
That was a trade forum headline. All of the trade forum headlines have gotten that way to draw interest to the trade list. If you take issue with that, take it to CheapyD and the mods. Considering that there are a great deal of people doing that with thier trade forum posts, I don't think that it's so cut and dry as you assume it is.
On top of it, you seem to take issue with some of the more risque postings on off topic, yet you seem to have no trouble when you're sticking up for JimmieMac when he is purposely being vulgar. (No reasonable person could say that calling someone a filthy jizz eating whore isn't vulgar.)
You seems to have two seperate standards... one for you and your friends, and one for everyone else.
as i said, i was barely involved in the thread. i made 3 or 4 posts in about 30+ pages. all of which were strictly on topic.
The same can be said for most posters in off topic posts, yet you decry thier involvement in them. That really does smack of hypocracy.
listen jsweeney we could go on like this all night. i know for sure you could and i believe i am up to the task, but really what will be solved.
i can prove you to be a hypocrite until my hands become arthritic as could you to me.
I highly doubt that.
however i really dont see a point. i think we should just agree to disagree on certain issues and move on since neither of us are directly related to this problem. lets not create another on top of it.
I'm not the one that broached the topic... and if you feel the need to impune my integrity, I'm not going to just sit back and take it.

Food for thought!
Ignorance is not merely the lack of knowledge, but self-destructive turning away from truth in all areas of life. Persons develop a taste for ignorance, the predisposition to embrace erroneous beliefs based on presumption or mere authority. The ignorant person believes he knows what he actually doesn't know; he becomes delusional. He is deranged.

i'm not gonna say, "stupid topics/posts should be prohibited," but while I'm all for some healthy off-topic discussion (non-game related), this back-and-forth virtual arguing is really silly.
I hesitate to even post in this thread myself; i don't want to piss anyone off or become the subject of additional flaming, but i really wish that the overall attitude around these boards would become a bit less hostile.

I'd just like to say that I appreciate the efforts that MK9 and JSweeney are throwing into this conversation. Between the two of them, the difference in opinion is blatant. However, they are attempting to actually have a real conversation about their differences, and are not sinking to the depths of a typical flame war. It's good to know that two people are capable of disagreeing without being total idiots.

You know, complaining about an imaginary "superiority complex" you state someone has is usually a last ditch effort that someone throws out when they don't have anything else that is novel, informative or worthwhile to say. It's a more verbose version of "I know you are, but what am I?" where you try to shift all the blame to the other and keep none for yourself.
That said, did you realize that had you not added this:
i can prove you to be a hypocrite until my hands become arthritic as could you to me, I would have agreed with you right then and there.
I do realize I was attacking your integrity as well, but that's all part an party to an argument.
Had you not added that one simple line in the end of your statement, I would have been in full agreement with you. The way I took what you though was making amends was suggesting that both of us just turn around and walk away from it, but after that was said and done, you just turning around while my back was turned so that you could get a couple of parting shots in.
If you really want to go to people and make amends, you really need to work on your dipolmacy and decorum.
Of course, if that wasn't your intent, and you just lacked the proper way of trying to broach that situation, than I'd be happy to agree with you that just about everything that needed to be said was said, and this argument doesn't serve any further purpose.

Can't quite come to grips with the difference between negativity and vulgarity, can you? There's a difference between being involved in a heated flamewar and being a vulgar jerk.
Flame wars should be an expected part of any message board.. wherever people have conversations where they have a sense of anonymity, arguments are certain to erupt. That doesn't give you liscense to be a vulgar lout, although some people think it does.

Ok then, I really don't see a point in arguing it any further then.
It's probably a rather moot point anyways.. anything we say probably wouldn't affect any of the more regular offenders anyway.
