EPTbefore you all bash IRC, im sure it was here MUCH LONGER than any of you realize. I've been in the IRC channel for a good number of years, and certainly not when it just started(that is to say its been around longer than even I know). I would have a very hard time believing there's any causation on behalf of the IRC channel. It has gotten worse at the same pace the forums have.

I'm relatively new to the community. Honestly, I take so much more than I contribute. Not that I don't have my opinions, but more like someone shares my opinion and has already said it. What am I to do? quote and say "+1"? I'm actually in favour of this seniority thing cuz it allows for much more chracter in posts. If everyone was newbie like myself (when can i get a new icon T_T), then posts would all be super safe... and people with massive reputations like incontrol wouldn't exist... and THAT would lower the quality of the forum. | ||

I'm not following your logic...  Sometimes I disagree with what a forum vet says or does, but you still have to show respect for their views and contributions. They put a lot of EffOrt (pun intended for Hot_Bid and CJ lovers) into maintaining this site. I feel bad that GearitUP had to go down that route and keep badmouthing the veterans. And to think he was going to host a LAN for us at Norcal with some of our beloved vets like haji, AttackZerg, SpiritoftheTUNA, and others.  Now that I look back at that Norcal Lan thread, it was almost as if Mani predicted GearitUP to be banned, with him giving the last words saying how he wasn't surprised that it couldn't work out.  Speaking of Mani, lol at JeeJee's pic of the easy button. Reminded me of the video showing you giving Savior that as a present and telling him to use it as his ceremony. That was easy. XD | ||

I dont' think you should let the status of the messenger alter the content of the message. | ||

I'd probably wonder under what names you had those 2200 posts so i could remember if you were a shitty poster or not. | ||

You would still have to show respect. | ||

People try to rip apart topics with lame jokes or attack others in such a disrespectful fashion that i jump pages sometimes. Respect your fellow readers, and stop jumping on someone just because he might be wrong. Next is how some people talk about some players / teams. Words like "retarded" and "faggot" used to describe a player are completely unnecessary. Be angry, be dissapointed but keep your shit togheter. It's so cumbersome to read these comments just because someone thinks he's lewis black. It's ok and great to have an opinion, but you're posting in a surrounding with lot's of small fanbases where people discuss styles, players and teams. It should be as much their little place to enjoy the game / scene as it is yours. | ||

I just described GearitUP as a person that can never concede an argument, even when a shitload of people disagree with him, and the only person agreeing is a 2 times previously banned user. Then he does that shit lol. | ||
