IA vs The Pack - 23 - 28 of 51 Final (11/12)

[tec805]

Yes sure it is on both sides but you guys have your entire clan doing it as oppossed to the very few in IA who are actually posting anything and you could very easily just try taking the high road and not saying anything at all. Not to mention you guys are still dwelling on this whole ratings thing. Just let it go.

You don't have to agree with them but you probably shouldn't chastise everyone who has a differing opinion from yours.

Make up your mind, are we allowed to post our opinions or not? Are we allowed to believe that people that are ranked low have earned it or not? Are we allowed to like the rating system even though some don't? I'm so confused!

[tec805]

No it just goes to further show the flaws of the ratings and how little they mean. The game you showed was 5 months ago. Guess what people change in 5 months. Good luck finding a game like that of code's now.

Game 9754030 Yeah, that was tough looking at codeblues ratings and finding someone who rated him poorly just recently

An advice to the Packs:If you guys want to be the No1 clan on this site then all you have to do is to win CLA & CCUP and every other clan war you made.All the rest are useless.You don't impress anybody by being the clowns of the site.You are playing vs a very respectfully clan and you act like teenagers.

Once again... another uneducated opinion. I guess I hurt your feelings for calling codeblue out for his 50 - 1 prediction??
Also I am a bit confused... are you saying that all of your wars are useless then?? please clarify...
and for the record, nobody from our clan has said that IA isn't a respectful clan... in fact we have the up most respect for them and are just having fun (I believe your clan promotes a little mischief does it not? His aim is mischief, .... )
Please return when you have done better research... thanks and a have a great day

its fun to see the pack argue as if every single observer to bother posting is wrong. Even if they are, it doesnt matter perception is everything when it comes to attitude...you have to realize that. Its different when a clan has one or two members be outspoken than when say 6-7 members of a clan act in such a manner.

Exactly

Also let me translate what skill said for you lynch because apparently it went over your head. He was saying if you want to be number 1 go win CCup, go win CLA, and go win all your clan wars. When he said all the rest are useless he meant all this bickering for no reason and all the trash talk. None of that matters in the end if you want to be #1 either you win or you lose.

I really don't think skill cared that you called out a 50-1 prediction. Code was just having fun with that. We all make our mass exaggeration predictions from time to time. Hell my prediction for our war with Thota was 61-0 And there were only 60 games. Did I actually think it would happen? Probably not. Did anyone take it seriously and laugh at me when Thota got a win so my prediction was wrong? Nope.

So the next time you go to post something try looking at it from more of an objective perspective instead of going into everyone hates mode so I must attack because that's all you're doing. There is definitely truth to what skill has said yet you call it an uneducated opinion just like you say to most outsiders posting assuming they must not have read the thread if they don't agree with you. Well it's called an opinion everyone has them and they won't all be the same. It's a fact of life. You don't have to agree with them but you probably shouldn't chastise everyone who has a differing opinion from yours.

What a joke this is... trust me nothing went over my head and there is no need for translation... His post was insulting to the pack by calling us clowns and teenagers and all I did was respond to his opinion and point out the fact that is was unsubstantiated... It was not meant in good humor he was giving us advice (by the way I know that codeblue meant no harm and I was just taking a jab back at him)

I love the fact that you are telling me not to respond or chastise anyone but wasn't his post chastising us???? as have been so many others in here also... I agree that everyone has an opinion, but it appears that I am supposed to keep mine to myself I guess.

Look man... I am 42 years old and pretty successful so it's not like your talking to an idiot here... I would have no problem being objective but you have to bring something to the table, and reading a couple pages of forumn and then deciding to call us clowns and tell us how to act isn't it! I think we are all pretty decent folks in the pack really.... If someone was making an attempt at humor, or giving reasonable advice that is different... but so freaking many posts have come through this thread just insulting us one after the other...

I have made friends with many of the pack members so it is hard for me to sit back and say nothing when the hits just keep coming... I guess from now on I will just try to ignore them because it really is making this thread crappy... And to be honest.. this forum isn't even the right venue to be giving advice to an entire group of people (especially when you probably don't even know them)... that belongs in PM's
Anyway, I'll do my best to bite my tongue from here on out but I can't make any promises

Scenario 1: PACK starts all the trash talking. IA rises to the bait and trash talks back, and everything escalates. Result-Present situation. IA blames the downward spiral of the thread on PACK.


Scenario 2: IA starts trash talking. PACK rises to the bait, and trash talks back, causing everything to escalate. Result-Present situation. PACK blames the downward spiral of the thread on IA.

Consensus: Both are at fault, and people should just shut up, and play the fucking game.

You are allowed to believe what you want about people ranked low you're allowed to like or dislike the rating system you're even allowed to post your opinions on it if you want all I'm saying is continuing to post about ratings in a clan war thread isn't really helping your case any. That is my OPINION though. If you would like to continue posting about it carry on but in my OPINION it isn't doing your clan any justice to continue doing so. Yes it was shitty to give low ratings in a clan war but stuff happens if you just move on then it looks a lot worse on their part than on yours but again just my OPINION.

It was not meant in good humor he was giving us advice (by the way I know that codeblue meant no harm and I was just taking a jab back at him) Sorry all I meant by going over your head was when you asked for clarification about something else that seemed obvious to me but I'm used Skill's speaking

I love the fact that you are telling me not to respond or chastise anyone but wasn't his post chastising us???? as have been so many others in here also... I agree that everyone has an opinion, but it appears that I am supposed to keep mine to myself I guess. Sometimes the best thing you can do is just keep your opinion to yourself. It's tough it sucks but it makes everyone attacking you look bad when you aren't fueling the fire and they continue to try to get you to.

If someone was making an attempt at humor, or giving reasonable advice that is different... but so freaking many posts have come through this thread just insulting us one after the other... Some have yes but others haven't really seemed so insulting yet you guys still get defensive and tell those people they know nothing etc and that there lies one of the key problems but that's just my opinion feel free to disagree. I have read the entire thread though so my opinion at least isn't coming from just reading a few pages.

I have made friends with many of the pack members so it is hard for me to sit back and say nothing when the hits just keep coming...

Feel free to disagree.

Is he a good player or a farmer? I played him twice in team games and won and he has foed me since.

Game 7720485
Game 8426679
You beat me in both. The note I have for why you're foed is "dick-head play." I'm trying to figure out why I would have written that. I don't see how I'd think that from a team game. It may have been possible that you noobed somebody and they told me about it. Do you noob people often? I'm tempted to remove you from my foe list, but I'm hesitating. If I wrote that you have dick-head play, you probably play like a dick-head. This isn't even me being cute and trying to flame you. That's why it says you're foed.

At least MF played me 2 games before he foed me, You on the other hand foed me after just 1 game. http://www.conquerclub.com/game.php?game=8989112 This game is a fairly good example of what players have to deal with when they play sub 4.0 rated players and a example that ratings do mean something.

No it just goes to further show the flaws of the ratings and how little they mean. The game you showed was 5 months ago. Guess what people change in 5 months. Good luck finding a game like that of code's now.

Here is one from 2 weeks ago and there are many others http://www.conquerclub.com/game.php?game=9789397

I've been reading the thread from the beginning and I still think you guys have acted like douches sometimes. I knew grifft before pack started, and I enjoyed playing with Maert, but somehow you guys have seemed to come off badly in here. Idk, maybe it's because all of us are jealous old codgers, and you guys are banding together in defence, but there has to be something if you guys are being perceived so negatively in peoples eyes. Whether it's because you have random images from GR (I'm glad I can't see them, and undoubtedly he'll probably pop up with some map ranks of ~5 games to prove that we all suck), or you guys put undue importance on ratings I'd imagine 90%+ of us would actually completely ignore, and then you even go on and insult people like MF...
You've said that it's all fine as long as you're all having fun, but there needs to be more than that when so many of us presumably think that IA (with stalwarts such demon you've put pains to point out) has such better PR than you guys to stick out of here so much relatively. (I'm actually interested to see if foxglove will bring those same stats she did previously on how many posters are actually involved here )
Is it really that hard to take the high-road so many have mentioned?

[GeneralRisk]

Is he a good player or a farmer? I played him twice in team games and won and he has foed me since.

If he did, you suck. He's awesome.

Every time I see your name I think of the Dan Ryan Expressway that runs through the depressed, mostly Black housing projects and neighborhoods in the South Side of Chicago. I used to operate a business in the SS at the various railroad yards. That expressway had some of the worst drivers Ive ever seen. Random shootings from other cars and people throwing bricks at your windshield from above as you passed under a overpass. It has a nickname, The N@@@@@ 500. I now live and work far from the SS of Chicago. When I see your name it always brings back bad memories. Now once again DanRyan is throwing bricks or shooting guns at me again for no apparent, at least to me, reason. Mr. 500, maybe I do suck ....How about I set up 10 private 1v 1 games of Stalingrad, me against you. We are close point wise at the moment. Please take me up on the offer. Very few on the SS of Chicago are pussies and I hope you are not one of the few. Looking forward to your response.

Mr 500 sadly, is one of the few .....no thanks. You can get in line to join public games but I only do 1 v 1 when I'm trying to cross map a new map or get a medal.

Cool story, bro.

[GeneralRisk]

I love the fact that you are telling me not to respond or chastise anyone but wasn't his post chastising us???? as have been so many others in here also... I agree that everyone has an opinion, but it appears that I am supposed to keep mine to myself I guess. Sometimes the best thing you can do is just keep your opinion to yourself. It's tough it sucks but it makes everyone attacking you look bad when you aren't fueling the fire and they continue to try to get you to.

Anyway, I'll do my best to bite my tongue from here on out but I can't make any promisesI agree completely that it is very tough to ignore it when people call out your clanmates infact that's what prompted me to start posting instead of just reading but there is definitely a place for getting yourself involved and a place for holding back and at this point it really seems like the Pack should try to just hold back but that's just my opinion as well. Feel free to disagree.

Please take your own advice and shut your trap and mind your own business....we already have too many outsiders sticking their nose where it dont belong....Just my opinion

You're really starting to sound like a broken record. I bet if someone came in and was 100% agreeing with you that you wouldn't ask them to stop posting in the thread. It did become my business when you started bringing my clanmates into the conversation for no real reason whatsoever.

No your the one starting to sound like a broken record and if you continue then I well join your war thread and stick my nose where it dont belong and there is a apparent reason for codeblue....50 to 1 and the following picture

Feel free to come into our war thread... It is a public thread after all and anyone has the right to post in it.
Code made a prediction of 50-1 for fun. It obviously wasn't serious and if you don't understand that then I truly feel sorry for you. Code hasn't said anything bad about you guys yet you're dishing out as many insults as you can muster up. Saying 50-1 isn't saying anything bad it's a joke so don't even bother using that yet you call him and idiot and all sorts of other things. If you don't expect others to post in public war threads or you don't like it your clan should really just stop having clan wars altogether.

Ok thats fine, I would rather f*ck with u in your thread anyway and it may get some to look at your thread as it has few hits.
