Nope, but I read that one. Cocky or not, a lot of scenes are filled with jerks and a lot of scenes are filled with tight groups of friends/crews that like to have fun, be cocky, talk shit, etc.
Your posts #120 and #124 wasn't needed at all and started the shit storm. If they are going to be jerks, just let them be jerks. You said yourself you already knew most of the people on SRK were that way but still you wanted to point it out to them. From that post on you could tell the rest of the guys wanted to see how far they could push you and you fed the trolls.
Hell, a little while ago I won a CVS2 match with most of my crew watching against a friend of mine. It was so close that when I finally won, I climbed up on the machine. Sure to anyone who didn't know me I was cocky, ridiculous and lame, but to my friends watching they knew me and they knew that wasn't how I was. Shit, most of my friends I do play FG games against, there is constant shit talking but it's all in good fun. Just ask Mr. Beef who has played me in person, we talked up a storm of shit when we played CVS2, but we laughed because of it. I'd rather have fools be super cocky around tournament time instead of a bunch of mopers who think they will get mopped up first match. Why not get hyped?
Hell in the case that those guys are just cocky around tournament time, it just not a good idea to throw rocks around your own scene. These are guys that could potentially be people you could play against at house gatherings, ranbats, other tourneys, making friends is obviously something SRK is about as well as CAG. I've met a lot of new people through SRK that have been nothing but nice to me and informative while we were playing, even if they didn't have to.
Whatever, I'm done with this whole CAG is better than SRK or SRK is better than CAG bullshit. I like both forums but I can't stand when people think they are too good for either of the boards.[/quote]
Well, we clearly have different opinions as to what behaviors are and aren't respectful and acceptable. Let's leave it at that.
