That isn't witty enough for you? :roll:

What I find funny is that everybody is totally obtuse to the fact that the ratings given by Jimboy are completely unfounded and absurd. Instead of focusing on the facts, which clearly show an abuse of the rating system, people just say how we are bitching. I have not seen one reply to any of my posts which clearly state and show evidence of jimboy's clear disregard for fair ratings.. Regardless if the system is flawed or not or if one should care about ratings or not. Nobody can argue with the facts. I haven't ranted, only stated facts. While I can see why Vamp wouldn't respond to my post about the rating being BS because in doing so he'd call out his clan member. I am dumb founded how any reasonable person could back IA in this type of behavior. Again if any other clan was in a war and got those types of ratings for just wining a game they would be pissed too. So if calling out somebody's bullshit is ranting I'll rant away. Back up jimboy's ratings or man up and just admit he was spiteful. I'm not bitching about your clan or anybody else on the thread, a rant is only a rant if it isn't founded. Now, if you or anybody else can show any evidence that I don't have a legitimate grievance please do so! Besides blowing up on jimboy for the rating I have been taking the "high road" on wins or loses against your clan. I would expect the same kind of behavior from a top ranked clan, but I guess some people just can't take getting beat very well. ;)

I also realize that you have made comments on both sides but you have to admit that some of your posts where an attempt to belittle us... I don't care what you say really, I was only trying to point out that we get chastised for voicing our opinions yet that is all that everyone else is doing as well?? you can say as much as you want as far as I am concerned and I will do the same


Ah my misunderstanding on the 12 post thing, i must have misread it.

Yes some of my post had belittling remarks, but you can't say they were directed at the pack as a whole because they were directed at specific members. You have also made belittling remarks to me though and i know i wont ever care, such is the way of an argument. My only concern about you voicing your opinions is that they are not grounded by any supporting evidence. Ill just throw out one example because i don't really want to rehash every argument that has been made in this thread. Because it is mentioned in your post ill just go with the rating one. Rating is a broken system for many reasons...
1) ratings have no time weight nor do they ever fall off your record...if you think i am the same player now as i was 3 years ago you are sadly mistaken. Yet all of the ratings i got when i would deadbeat or make noob plays are still on my record the same as the rating i got yesterday
2) when 3 stars is average and a good rating is 4.8 (or close to excellent), one will actually get punished if someone rates you based on the intended use of the system.
3) many people are spiteful raters
4) not everyone rates you for every game...thus as people are more likely to rate you if they had a bad experience it is not a true judgement of your game play

the list goes on and on about why rating is pointless but i digress. Complaining about ratings is pointless because the system is pointless, I can understand why you care that he gave you an undeserved rating...he shouldn't have and it is a classless act but you shouldn't worry about it either. Not only is it a broken system but one spiteful rating is not going to make a huge difference over the years...



dude, just a last word about ratings. for me it s just something that expresses how the oponent behaved... at least this is how i rate. if i play vs a private and the guy is nice and did a couple of noob moves i d still give 5 stars. if the guy has been a total asshole in his way of playing and in the chat d rate 1s. if you want to judge how good/experienced the player is just take a look at his points, win rate, game played medals; and for me all normal players are like between 4.4 and 4.8; because if there hasn t been any problems people just put 5s, i guess also expecting 5s in return.
if i see a guy with under 4.4 before entering a game, i thing that he s either a suicider, a sore looser/trash talker or a deadbeater..
If you were a different player 3 years ago; well, people re-rate and people have been rating you since; and with the average and all what you did since it still should be ok.
just look at page 1 of the scoreboard, there is just one guy under 4.5! and given what he writes here and in games; i do find useful to take into consideration an average rating (with no corelation with gameplay!)
anyway, i m done talking about ratings.

the other thing, about win % vs points per map; don t forget that if you usualy play singles, assassin or terminator with 7 other players ect, obviously the win % can t be compared with th one from someone playing only teamvsteam or 1vs1, so yes, i do believe points are not just a crap factor that look good on lower ranked players.



I'd have to agree with you on it is a classless act, but bringing it to light doesn't seem unreasonable. I don't think anybody in the Pack really "cares" about 1 rating... It's the fact of the matter about piss poor behavior in a war. Anyways I think I've beat a dead horse tonight. Just had to back up my original post and post my thoughts.

funny cause on my side of the pond, imperial japan doesn t really have a bad image.. just that they were the allies of the 3rd reich, but the nagasaki/hiroshima thing made them quite neutral for europeans i guess. I know pearl harbour is a big thing for americans, but didn t realize that they were still recalled as true bad guys for americans. well, you had quite some work there between the west and east coast fronts.. ;-)

I hear you and I agree... But you have to admit that the so called "gay banner" is pretty funny isn't it??? it certainly qualifies as witty.. 8-) I will see what else we can come up with to try to add some flavorful humor to this thread... :-k :-k

Japanese war crimes occurred during the period of Japanese imperialism, primarily during the Second Sino-Japanese War and World War II. Some of the incidents have also been described as an Asian Holocaust and Japanese war atrocities. Some war crimes were committed by military personnel from the Empire of Japan in the late 19th century, although most took place during the first part of the Shōwa Era, the name given to the reign of Emperor Hirohito, until the military defeat of the Empire of Japan, in 1945.

Historians and governments of some countries officially hold Japanese military forces, namely the Imperial Japanese Army, the Imperial Japanese Navy and the Imperial Japanese family, especially Emperor Hirohito, responsible for killings and other crimes committed against millions of civilians and prisoners of war.Some Japanese soldiers have admitted to committing these crimes.

you can only see how hated are japanese by koreans and chineese since the imperial japan... the thing is that the 2 nukes gave a total diferent reading of history for most western people since, and all the atrocities ect they inflicted to asian neighbours kind of got forgoten in history classes. I was more tought about how they wiped russian s asses with their brand new metal vessals vs the tsar s old wooden vessals that took victory for granted and that was part of the decline of the tsars before the bolcheviks; and the battles for mandchouria between chineese and japs, not really understanding if japs were purely robing these territories or if they had a population history there..
they should do a map about that part of history would be fun! ;)

Txflier wrote:Ok, I'd like to address the issue about ratings. Yes I'm aware that crappy ratings pop up from time to time from bitter players and for the most part if you have a decent rating those inaccurate ratings are ignored by most players. My point was that getting this type of rating in a clan war for no reason is unacceptable. While I did respond to Jimboy's rating rather harshly on his wall and I think PM it was in direct response to his BS rating, and I'm sure I was pretty drunk that night. :lol: (in his defense he did post something on my wall about him re-rating me after we played each other again) which I thought was at least a little stand up of him, and I was going to respond, but he deleted the comment so I figured he was standing by his rating. and for the comments that got me that rating I'll post below, since I'm assuming nobody went and read game chat. All I wanted to address was an BS rating for no reason. Anyways my 2 cents. Been enjoying the war and hope it can stay civil.

2011-09-14 14:55:06 - VampireM: now that most of been some great dice!
2011-09-14 16:22:44 - Txflier: eh so so. ;) :p
2011-09-14 22:19:27 - Txflier: LOL Vamp, talk about good dice.
2011-09-15 17:55:32 - VampireM: just thought i would even it out a little
2011-09-15 20:27:56 - Txflier: well yellow tried to return the favor, but just missed ya. :p
2011-09-16 08:39:04 - jimboy: Unreal....
2011-09-16 08:41:26 - jimboy: When you guys have such a sizable lead, that was created by dice and dice only, why would you even comment about Vamp getting good dice when it doesn't matter anymore?
2011-09-16 08:42:03 - jimboy: I'm sorry but I find that very amusing
2011-09-16 08:44:23 - jimboy: Next time please just take the high road and enjoy the win
2011-09-16 08:44:46 - jimboy: gg guys. Well played
2011-09-16 10:46:36 - Txflier: wow talk about getting your panties in a bunch. I was joking around with him because yes I did have great dice, and then he came back and had great dice as well. I wasn't bitching about anything.
2011-09-16 10:48:47 - Txflier: one bad thing about typing on the net, sometimes the meaning is lost in translation.
2011-09-16 10:49:32 - Txflier: good game team 2


didnt feel like posting the rest of that chat or what? i mean the most important part of the issue

If you are trying to say that the United States and its allies during World War 2 are innocent of perpetrating war crimes then your dead wrong....Here is a link to Allied war crimes during World War II http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Allied_war ... rld_War_II

yeah don t mind if it s a bit more IA and pack members speaking to each other about something else than ratings! ;)

all my clan games are finished and i m just waiting to see what all you guys prepared for set 3.
I now know that lokisgal wants 12h to take a screenshot on fog conquer maps, if you are out of town for a few days, the person taking your turn has to wait 23h otherwise it s cheating, and that demonfork mans up and accepts hit fate by deadbeating (how unexpected!)

forum snob! :P

funny cause on my side of the pond, imperial japan doesn t really have a bad image.. just that they were the allies of the 3rd reich, but the nagasaki/hiroshima thing made them quite neutral for europeans i guess. I know pearl harbour is a big thing for americans, but didn t realize that they were still recalled as true bad guys for americans. well, you had quite some work there between the west and east coast fronts.. ;-)


Japanese war crimes occurred during the period of Japanese imperialism, primarily during the Second Sino-Japanese War and World War II. Some of the incidents have also been described as an Asian Holocaust and Japanese war atrocities. Some war crimes were committed by military personnel from the Empire of Japan in the late 19th century, although most took place during the first part of the Shōwa Era, the name given to the reign of Emperor Hirohito, until the military defeat of the Empire of Japan, in 1945.

Historians and governments of some countries officially hold Japanese military forces, namely the Imperial Japanese Army, the Imperial Japanese Navy and the Imperial Japanese family, especially Emperor Hirohito, responsible for killings and other crimes committed against millions of civilians and prisoners of war.Some Japanese soldiers have admitted to committing these crimes.

If you are trying to say that the United States and its allies during World War 2 are innocent of perpetrating war crimes then your dead wrong....Here is a link to Allied war crimes during World War II http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Allied_war ... rld_War_II


Uh...no :?

The two paragraphs only serve to educate the masses, addressing only Imperial Japan of that era. I'm quite certain there is no mention of any other nation.

Yes I'm aware that crappy ratings pop up from time to time from bitter players and for the most part if you have a decent rating those inaccurate ratings are ignored by most players. My point was that getting this type of rating in a clan war for no reason is unacceptable. While I did respond to Jimboy's rating rather harshly on his wall and I think PM it was in direct response to his BS rating, and I'm sure I was pretty drunk that night. :lol: (in his defense he did post something on my wall about him re-rating me after we played each other again) which I thought was at least a little stand up of him, and I was going to respond, but he deleted the comment so I figured he was standing by his rating. and for the comments that got me that rating I'll post below, since I'm assuming nobody went and read game chat. All I wanted to address was an BS rating for no reason. Anyways my 2 cents. Been enjoying the war and hope it can stay civil.

2011-09-14 14:55:06 - VampireM: now that most of been some great dice!
2011-09-14 16:22:44 - Txflier: eh so so. ;) :p
2011-09-14 22:19:27 - Txflier: LOL Vamp, talk about good dice.
2011-09-15 17:55:32 - VampireM: just thought i would even it out a little
2011-09-15 20:27:56 - Txflier: well yellow tried to return the favor, but just missed ya. :p
2011-09-16 08:39:04 - jimboy: Unreal....
2011-09-16 08:41:26 - jimboy: When you guys have such a sizable lead, that was created by dice and dice only, why would you even comment about Vamp getting good dice when it doesn't matter anymore?
2011-09-16 08:42:03 - jimboy: I'm sorry but I find that very amusing
2011-09-16 08:44:23 - jimboy: Next time please just take the high road and enjoy the win
2011-09-16 08:44:46 - jimboy: gg guys. Well played
2011-09-16 10:46:36 - Txflier: wow talk about getting your panties in a bunch. I was joking around with him because yes I did have great dice, and then he came back and had great dice as well. I wasn't bitching about anything.
2011-09-16 10:48:47 - Txflier: one bad thing about typing on the net, sometimes the meaning is lost in translation.
2011-09-16 10:49:32 - Txflier: good game team 2


didnt feel like posting the rest of that chat or what? i mean the most important part of the issue


2011-09-16 19:55:13 - Swifte: gg team 1
2011-09-16 20:55:30 - grifftron: no need to apoligize to them Tx...I would complain too if I was destroyed... win is a win! BOII!!!


Sorry there you go, seeing as it was a post about the rating jimboy left me not Grif I didn't find it relevant. though that still shows Grifs rating is BS as well. ok so I could see a 1 on attitude "maybe" but game play and fair play surely not, we did win after all. Whatever, I'm over it enjoy the rest of the games, and hopefully your clan members will "take the high road" when about to lose and just take the turn instead of just missing.
