"I openly say in these forums that we are friends, or at least he lived near me and drank beer. "
a verb with a d at the end indicates past tense hence "lived". Just pathetic. I can't speak for why robi wan has recently posted but not played games, you'd have to PM him and ask him. Also, others in the thread have speculated that it is all one account. A simple address check of the computers would show that easily. Here's an idea, add us to you foe list and move on with your lives.
That's an interesting suggestion Billy. I happen to agree and have already taken the precaution of adding you to my foe list. I believe that one good turn deserves another ; so here is a suggestion for you and your "posse." Stop ganging up on unsuspecting players and turning public games into your personal harassment venue. Maybe you can explain why you must subject other players, who are not your friends, to your insults and ridicule. I have looked at the chat in your games and the comments you make to players is not only uninvited but inappropriate.
What makes you believe that it's acceptable to insult and torment players that do not have prior experience or knowledge of your behavior? In other words; what gives you the right to make sexually and racially explicit comments to unsuspecting players? What , in your mind, makes you believe that you can say those things to my 10 year old son, my father, my wife, my neighbor or any other innocent player that inadvertently joins one of your games? Because, last time I checked, there is no warning message that pops up, before you join one of your games, that reads: WARNING!!! Do not join this game unless you are amused by homophobic humor and racist insults.
I think that most reasonable players on this site, including myself, understand that colorful language is a part of any competitive game. However, there is quite a difference between the following comments:
2007-12-12 11:16:31 - billydigital: slavery was the only way to get blacks to work
2007-12-14 08:51:03 - billydigital: f*ck y ou teal
2007-12-14 13:00:59 - TheBorg: Interesting. Why the obscenity? Do you have Tourettes Syndrome?
2007-12-15 23:09:14 - billydigital: i have my dick in your moms ass
Then there is something like this:
"These fucking dice are unreal!!!"
Now, I don't pretend to be a pillar of morality but I happen to think that there is a huge difference in the two afore mentioned statements. Also, for the one example that I listed above there are a hundred more like it.
By no means am I suggesting that the site censor profanity. However, I think that there is a line that should not be crossed. The message that billydigital broadcasts is way beyond the tolerance of acceptability. I don't believe that the founders of Conquer Club had billydigital in mind when they launched this web site and established the liberal rules that govern our behavior in these games.
Why is billydigital dictating the terms of what we should tolerate? Just because I have the option to add him to my foe list does not mean that he has been given "Carte Blanche" to do whatever he wants.
CC management needs to take a stance on this. As far as I'm concerned, there is no gray area when it comes to a topic of this nature.
