First of all peeps this is just me venting and I will not mention any names! If anybody cares to respond to this post then please respect my request and respond in kind! Let me ask each of you, have you ever heard certain players that come in  late into a game and then when they don't win say, "I just needed a few more minutes"? To me that statement is degrading to the individuals that win with the assumption that they would indeed run the leaders down and win. That is arrogance example #1. Example number #2 is when somebody talks like only they have the right to win each and every map! Now remember this, there is a difference between arrogance and self confedence, for example when I say when someone shoots me from a certain position, "I am going to cut you if you stay there", that is confedence. I dont think I am untouchable but there are many that seem to do that very kind of thinking.  Like I said thjis is just me venting and I wish everybody could just play for the fun of it. Winning isn't everything in life. I can think of many things that out rank winning by a country mile. Family, friends and such, are so much more important than winning a damned video game.

I hear ya Dean and I belive I was in the server with you when this said individual made that statement. Yes, it is degrading and I for one can say that the servers provided by >XI< are some of the best I've been in. Win, loose or draw its always a blast in there - That's why I am drawn to it!

 

It is digusting to see players get so involved with winning that they forget the whole idea of playing a game, which is to have fun. I have been around PC gaming for a long time and it seems there is always one.

 

Hell Dean do what it is you do best, just knife their asses so much that it makes 'em cry their butts right out the server! lol Tongue out

 

Cool

I agree 100%...the real gamer, no matter what age, is someone who enjoys the thrill of playing, not just "owning" someone...Ive played the COD series from COD1 to COD5 and seems like ever other server you land in has someone who gives the rest of their clan a bad reputation for something they did...I shutdown my clan...LCG Squad...for 3 months just because of that reason...since then I started it back up and cleared out the "owners" and started fresh, for the simple reason that I couldnt find a clan that just had fun, for that reason only...When you pay for a game, you should be able to enjoy it on your own level, enjoy friendly chat and not have to put up with crap that wastes your limited amount of time you have in the evenings to have fun...right there with ya Dean..nice post....a person should always have their say and be done with it...good or bad....

There will always be that one arrogant fucker who thinks they are the shit.  Then there's the really good ones who slaughter me and rub it in playfully.  Big difference between the two.  I'd have popped off with something like "That's what she said" and at the least entertain the other players who weren't acting like douches, but I'm just a big smartass like that.

  Now let's all go play and leave our knives at home just this once, what do ya say?!?

I love winning as much as the next guy, and I usually do ok, but I am not dumb enough to think I am one of the best, because the minute I do, someone comes along and "owns" me to remind me of this

Anything I say in the servers with regard to winning or "coming in late" are always made in jest and I sincerely hope all the people in there know that. I do sometimes forget that I have a rather "dry" British sense of humor and some people take a little time to get used to it, but that's who I am.

I enjoy playing here and love the fact that no one really comes across as arrogant or big-headed, especially the good ones, like Pete and Artimus, Hoth when I see him, to name a few

Of course I play in different servers to you Dean so I maybe haven't come across the dingbats you have. All I can say, is slice 'em up a few times and maybe they won't sing so loud

Winning isn't everything in life. I can think of many things that out rank winning by a country mile. Family, friends and such, are so much more important than winning a damned video game.

 I happened to say something pretty similar to this today. So if this post is or is not in reference to me I'm not sure. Here is a few thoughts. One thing that annoys me about the cod series. It has never had time played showing on the scoreboard. I have played games that are 15 years old that have this. On another note I don't say this to whine or thinking I should win every level. Am I competive sure. I still enjoy the game and the people I play with but I don't play to lose. Will I lose any sleep at night if I lose no.  Am I giving the person crap who won? Sure some if I wasn't in the whole game. Am I putting them down no.  It was Pete who I have played with for years. Who I also like and respect. The same guy I asked to be on my cod2 ctf team tourneys ago. Why? Because one thing I am cocky about is I can recognize talent and what they are good at. So I think you need to loosen your panties up. What I said after I typed the comment  was gg which = good game. The same thing I say if I lose or I win by 40 or 50.

  The ones I've dropped haven't been by much so my ass doesn't hurt much. The person who has taken me by the most frags semi recently in ffa was Spivs kid. Quick as hell on the draw and really accurate. I played him 1v1 one night and he took 2 of 3 games from me. All were pretty tight(3-5 frags) The kid has skills. Person from the past that used to frustrate me was Bashem. I had a habit of barely losing to him and rarely beating him in a ffa. His movement wasn't anything incredible but his aim was brutal and he was a very smart player.
