I mean seriously? I have the BBC, why would I read Celebrity News Network?
Turns out, people can impersonate others on the internet, who'd have thought it.

Just coming in here with "I heard..." or "he said / she said" is just a waste of everybody's time. Going by Totalbiscuits Twitter feed I'd be perfectly inclined to believe the statements came from him. He seems to be quite outspoken and / or unhappy in interviews / twitter and downright rude to his fans ( soon to be ex-fans ). That said, his casting is a good play by play and I'm sure that if John gets his personal life in order he'll be a happy all round nice bloke. | ||

You seem to be attributing my reaction to your fanboi crap for Diablo 3 as "personal unhappiness". I'm perfectly happy, I just happen to think your statements are moronic. Remember this tweet? @absalom86 @Totalbiscuit So you hate Diablo, and WoW. Why not drop SC2 as well and be done with Blizzard ? What are you doing in my fanclub thread when you ask me to drop SC2 just because I don't happen to enjoy WoW or Diablo? Please tell me how that is not moronic. I love the incredulous leap of logic though. "Hey, he doesn't like my favorite videogame, I'd better go claim on TL that he's a racist islam-hating bigot!". The fault here, is with you. I don't need "fans" like you. | ||

I don't need "fans" like you. Again, I think if you want to go quote digging you might as well have the part before that reply from me. Totalbiscuit @absalom86 I couldn't give a shit about Diablo 3. If I want to play a Diablo game I'll play one by the guys who actually made Diablo Totalbiscuit @absalom86 probably because I don't take the opinions of Blizzard fanbois seriously and don't need twitters help in making decisions Absalom86 @Totalbiscuit So you are a Blizzard " fanboi " if you like Blizzard products ? I guess that means 95% of the gaming community. Totalbiscuit @absalom86 95% of the gaming community is stupid? Sounds about right! Do run along now This is basically you bashing Blizzard fans as being stupid. I know you feel pretty to be witty on Twitter but I honestly think it hurts you more than it helps you, just a tip, didn't come here to argue with you, just an appeal. Talked to you tons of times on Irc and trained you a bit through Ventrilo so I wanted to point it out to you, but you are free to leave it or take it. PS : You are confusing your posters as well. Wasn't me posting those quotes by a " Cynicalbrit ". | ||

Going by Totalbiscuits Twitter feed I'd be perfectly inclined to believe the statements came from him. This was posted by you, today, in this thread. Did we forget? You are essentially saying you are perfectly inclined to believe I am a racist anti-islamic bigot. Please tell me why I'd take you seriously after that aye? The problem is you don't even know what you're talking about. You got all offended after what I said about Diablo 3. How DARE I not care about Diablo 3! HERESY! Your argument following that was shallow and pedantic, you even suggested I quit SC2. What is wrong with you? | ||

A person should be able to say what they want about any game, and TB is right more often then most. Also, TotalBisuit is good to his fans, and he's right. Why on earth would he go to CNN(yes, CNN) and make comments like that? Anyone can be CynicalBrit, and TBH I doubt that he would have registered an account on CNN(who does?). Also, hi TotalBiscuit! | ||

How DARE I not care about Diablo 3! HERESY! Your argument following that was shallow and pedantic, you even suggested I quit SC2. What is wrong with you? Well, I did not really think it came from you, especially when it was just some random CNN feed, It could even be one of the infamous trolls lurking around this community ( Just look at Destiny being DDOS'd and blackmailed ). I've been following you for a couple of years on Twitter now and you often seem to say pretty bad things to your followers, bashing them for not liking what you like especially. I know it's pretty easy to hate for example World of Warcraft at times when you've played the game yourself. Hating on Diablo 3 I don't understand too much, especially when promoting games that are essentially copies of it, and when the game has not been released past 1/4 of 1/4 of 1/4 of the total product. The SC2 comment came after you called 95% of Blizzard fans idiots, and Starcraft is a Blizzard product... I was hoping it would make you realize that you are attacking the majority of your fanbase. Again, I still like your commentating and I think you are the best play by play out there ( Could get even better if you ranked up a bit in 1v1's with some help from Apollo of the like ) and I hope you take this as constructive criticism. | ||

Fanbois are idiots. You've proven that. I hate fanbois because they are utterly incapable of rational thought and tend to get incredibly emotional about their favorite videogames. They lash out in response, making baseless accusations and generally being unpleasant little nitwits. This song is about you and people like you. Please note you also decided it would be a good idea to claim that I am "in it for the money" in the Cloud video podcast thread. You are not acting like a smart person right now, you are acting like a butthurt fanboi and much like my "ex-fans", who turn into the most vile of haters overnight when I say something they don't like. | ||

but it is good to do so, since criticism may result in advancement. also: totalbiscuit, maybe you should stop arguing with those people on public forums or wherever else, nothing good will come out of it. they wont change theyr oppinion and those discussions arent nearly constructive. though, im not the best source for those advices (im a terrible idra fanboy, i admit ![]() absalom86, just stop it. it is just sad to see new posts in t his fanclub and hope for some interesting news or whatever and see this ![]() edit: btw, it is awesome to see the person the fanclub is dedicated to post in it.. it gives a.. good feeling, or whatever ![]() | ||
