When a CAG just stops caring...

[quote name='CaseyRyback']a statement from Scorch that totally solidifies my opinion about him.[/QUOTE]

I wasn't referring to you, you, Shrike and Led get things taken care of.

You are big and strong mod.. like burly man! [/russianaccent]

It's better to just be mediocre all the time than be great sometimes and shitty others.
I do it and look how well I turned out!



I'm proud to call myself the least prolific person of above 3000 posts

Everyone turns evil.

I use to be a commendable player back in the day in this MMORPG called Ultima Online. But before I quit, I went on a rampage and basically played killed all my "friends", then sold my account on eBay.

I also use to be a true team a player back in the Warcraft 2 days over Kali, but got pissed off and basically burned all my friends.

These days the worst thing I do is mass suicide over XBox live in Halo 2, that REALLY pisses people off in team games because 99% of the time they can't do shit.

Oh. Yay. A search joke. It takes all of two seconds to do a search. You're online enough during the day to be "constantly scanning" the forums.

Way to take a good-natured joke the wrong way.

And just because people like punq and I appear online doesn't mean we're sitting right there infront of the monitor looking for this kind of thing. You just have a knack for finding the stuff before we do. Do we appreciate the help? Certainly. But don't say we're slacking off just because you have some unnatural talent for finding the stuff the moment it appears.
 
[quote name='The Successful Dropout']I'd like to add myself to the list...of when a CAG stops caring. I come on here often, as I'm sure the majority of you are aware of...but it's just not as friendly as it used to be. [/quote]

I hear ya on that one. That's just why I've started to stick to the deals forums and that's basically it with some discussion in specific threads/about games. The place is starting to be more and GFAQish and it's just pissing me off to no avail. (Sp) I've started going days where I just come check the deals and that's it. Don't really care to post anymore.

I'm a regular deal bringer with at least the weekly ads, but I think that's going to stop for a while.

I love your deal postings and you just can't no know how much I appreciate them. You and fidodido are my two favorite CAG regular deal posters.

One reason is because I've typed up everything more than a few times and the site just craps out (a lot recently) and I lose everything I've typed up.
Click to expand...

I feel ya on this. Same here, when I try to post some deals sometimes or just to update my Rightstuf thread, the site will go out or get too bogged down and then poof all that I've typed has gone. Sometimes I remember to copy it to notepad, other times I just forget. I can't wait till we get a new server.

Another reason is because a lot of CAGs take it for granted and think it's my job to type them up and post them (at the same time, i know a lot of CAGs respect the time and dedication it takes and thank me every chance they get...which i more than appreciate).
Click to expand...

Like I've said, I love your weekly postings and understand greatly the amount of time it takes, and just the dedication since I"m sure that sometimes you just don't feel like doing it. That's why post my thanks each and every week, or at least try to (sometimes I forget not because of you, but because of me).

Another reason is that the ads have been sucking dickswabs for the past couple of months, with the exception of a very small amount of deals here and there. I'm just starting to care less and less as time goes by. As the past has shown, my feelings on this will probably change back and forth from time to time as CAG develops and changes (and people get friendlier or assier).
Click to expand...

Same here.

All of that said, maybe that wasn't what you were looking for or maybe it was exactly what you were looking for. But as the half friendly, half smart ass, all blunt person that i am...I'll still continue to regularly post on here the same way as I always have. Also, I don't plan on leaving everyone out on INCREDIBLE weekly ad deals that I come across. I'm just not going to post every little thing that I see (at least until my attitude changes or the overall attitude of CAG changes).

As Tromack said, You are the most valuable CAG that CAG has. Period.
 
[quote name='Mookyjooky']

CAG has changed alot in the last 6-12 months, and alot for the better.. but the community has gotten very new... and I'd love for the old schoolers to hang in there...
[/quote]

Agreed. There were tons of great posters, but I see them post less and less and the community seems to have fallen a bit[/quote]

Maybe we can have our own topic thats locked for anyone under 1,000 posts... that would be kinda nice.
Click to expand...

I wouldn't mind it. We're all cool with each other. Might bring back some of the regulars back. Itd be nice to see.
 
gotta agree with led here, scorch, it was a joke. we (or at least i) appreciate what you do here, but dont be so uptight, i mean geeze, between that, and saying you were gunna punch me in the face on aim, someone needs a hug :grouphug:
 
The only CAG I ever really had problems with was back in the Admiral's Football pool topics with Rich. It's not that I hated the guy it was just his constant boasting on how much better his winning pick was then other peoples winning pick got old fast.

I would be down for a replay this season. Ya know it took me a long while to realize you were the same guy after the avatar change. I didn't know your name at the time I just knew if I saw a duck then it was likely a highly opinionated post.

No harm, no foul, but if I saw you wearing that stupidass Pikachu hoodie with a tail like you showed me on AIM, I would honestly punch you in the face. I'd help you up after I punched you, but damn, that punch would feel good.

Go ahead, post the picture.. start your own thread and ask how many people think that thing looks stupid. If someone wears that, they deserve to be punched in the face.

Damn, you got me. I had a marilyn avatar for a while, and I do like legs. Don't remember participating in the breast debate, but I probably did.

It seems like there's three ways people get to know you here, you're either a major OTT poster, a woman, or you piss people off (rich, gamedude etc.). None of those describe me.

[quote name='Derwood43']I'm kinda surprised I wasn't added to some "hate" lists.

Lately, it seems, I've been pretty heated towards EZB, MrBadExample, and Myke. I'm not trying to, it's just that what they say drives me nuts. The past few days I've backed off, but my fingers are itching to retort. It's taken me almost a year to feel comfortable enough to outwardly disagree with someone here on CAG.

I hope my persona isn't tarnished because I feel passionately for one side of the government. It doesn't change the fact that I'm here to get a good deal on video games.[/QUOTE]

Bitch, PLEASE. :lol:

You're one of the more rational discursive types over in the realm of the vs. forum. We may not agree on anything, but I can at least feel like I have a conversation with you. I suppose that I can come across as caustic, but I do my best (and fail often) to reserve my real frustration for several types of people who haunt the vs forums, namely:

1) Trolls (Quack, Scrub)
2) Unsupported claimsmakers (Vienge, Rich)
3) People who can't admit to being wrong (Scrub)

And that looks like my ignore list, sans Vienge. Hell, if PAD and I can get away from petty name calling (if only for a moment), then I can get along with anyone.

I'm pretty sure the guy would have had his ass handed to him long before I ever saw him. Kind of like when I'm reading a repost and I think, "damn, I just saw this topic 10 minutes ago..." Then I scroll down 2 posts and see the scorch marks all over it.

I'd be impressed that he had the balls to go out in public like that. I'd laugh my ass off any time I see him, but there'd be no punching involved.

I think I'm starting to get to that point. The few posters that have kept me around socially have either vanished or have cut down on the amount of time they spend here, and I'm seeing less and less reason for me to hang around on the site beyond the sales.

Lately, though, the whole kittie/Lina debacle is what's been bothering me. CAG never had that kind of manufactured drama before, and it sure as hell didn't need it now.
 
Too many people are interested in crafting a shock persona and stroking their own egos to truly care about CAG. It doesn't bother me, I can deal with anything here, but it can turn off new members if the first person they see post is an asshole or a troll.
