View Full Version : Not really a duel, but funny nonetheless....



07-21-2003, 02:41 PM
I had an ongoing conflict with Cleric, had conflicts in the past with Rogue, and was just on my way to rescue a dead fellow when I ran across them. Anyway, classic stuff....The only part I edited was the names, room descriptions, and the spells I cast to protect my super secret identity.

It all started on a sunny day, no words were exchanged before the spells started flying...I was heading for the dead fellow, but Cleric had sancted the prior day so that he could make some death threats and general insults towards me, and that's a sure way to get killed.

Seriously that was the most retarded log I've ever read. "Spell of Death and Destruction"? Is the secrecy of your identity really important enough so that you can't disclose even your profession? Get a life.

Bob, I told you to cut out the whole making me laugh thing.

It's so much easier to just find you annoying when I don't have to admit you are funny at times.

You are a funny little troll. The point is, my identity, and the other two's identity isn't even important. I just thought it was a funny example of a GS3 conflict.

To me, the deaths and such are irrelevant, it's the reactions that are priceless.

Makkah isn't a troll dumbass, next time we want names/spells/damage/crits or don't even bother posting at all, you'll just get negative feedback

Makkah

The point is...

If you want people to laugh and be impressed by your logs (which obviously you do, or you wouldn't be posting...), you would need to reveal names and MAYBE even your profession. Put simply, noone was impressed by your made up log.

Dude, you've either got a Napolean complex or some undersized genitals, but whatever your issues are, you are funny. There's so much malice in most of your posts, and for no apparent reason. Either way, you need to work on those poorly aimed insults.

I did think the post was funny, and I only included the deaths so you could see the context of the remarks. It's just the most common type of Gemstone conflict, where some of the players take everything personally.

Now, sure, if I was an insecure little troll like you, I'd post all the names and such. Unlike you, though, I don't take every conflict with a CHARACTER in a GAME as a personal slight, so I didn't see any need to further embarrass the characters involved.

Anyway, if there's anyone out there that doesn't log in there 140 train wizard when a conflict goes south, I'd be intrested to hear your outlook.

Tea and confusion, Makkah is stating what is the majority of opinion in this folder, names, crits, professions, etc are all keys to a good duel log. You start the post by giving alittle background then toss in the duel (uneditted). You presented something that was so heavily editted most of us won't take the time to read the entire thing, hell I stopped right after I saw

"Death and destruction are visited upon him!
Cast Roundtime 3 Seconds. "

As for calling anyone a troll I don't see that the case. You presented a duel they didn't like the fact that it was heavily editted and said so. You reverted to the name calling not them, you're trolling your own thread.

07-23-2003, 03:48 PM
Yeah, you are right Little Boom Boom. I don't know how I could have misconstrued Makkah's first post as being antagonistic....

Don't worry, I know for the future that all anyone cares to see is some nice AS/DS and CS numbers, who cares what anyone is saying!

That's just low! Funny as hell but low.

And that last part what anyone was saying... We don't want what dead-univolved-slightly smelly-cleric#1 is saying we want what the person is saying. It makes the log so much better.

Speak for yourself. Not everyone.

So someone doesnt want to put a name down. Big deal. If it pains you so much then don't read the thing.

If you don't like the content then put some of your own up but don't just whine about not liking someone elses format.

<<I did think the post was funny>>

You know what they say about people that are the only ones laughing at their own joke...

<<Dude, you've either got a Napolean complex or some undersized genitals, but whatever your issues are, you are funny.>>

Haha, wow... I sure touched someone the wrong way. Don't get so heated, shawty... it's online ;)

Well, obviously it's stolen from that other thread, and I was just yanking your chain because you mispronounced my ingenious name!

I think a lot of conflicts in GS are funny, just about all of them actually. I just don't really see the point on adding the names to the log just so that people can pile on and say "Oh yeah, I ran into him, he's a complete jackass." That's fine and all, but what's the point?

I don't have any hard feelings towards the players involved. I think to come here and post their names for ridicule just demonstrates that I'm taking each conflict as a personal pissing contest, which is what far too many folks seem to do.

Oh well, no big deal either way, just thought I'd explain my reasoning.

Makkah

It's all good, Tea. I'm just curious, then, why did you post in the first place? To display your massive CS? Or to genuinely share a situation you encountered to be funny? No flames, I apologize for entering the thread the way I did.

Yeah, but maybe you had to be there. I'd been killed by them in the past, but I did fail to start calling them names while I lay there dead.

I always think it's funny when someone gets killed and they flip out.
