Something that Society and school never taught them to do. This is why we see all this dribble around here, and if you think all the "remove this or this is broke" threads are bad? Try the General Discussion on the League of Legends forums, and you will WANT to come back to these as a safe refuge.

I've seen it. I'm still in therapy :)

wait wait wait...someone asked to remove quickdraws? QUICKDRAWS!?!?!? They're either the worst player ever or always get killed by that one guy who has a Quickdraw.


I laugh at the fact that no references to the "please remove 'x'" threads that Sandpit is referring to are present. True enough, I have seen a few of the "removal" proposals that were referred to were present in his original post, but something tells me the more ridiculous proposals are either completely fabricated, or taken out of context as to what the OP of the culprit "removal thread" was actually trying to say.

Surprisingly enough, no.

Every time he has added one to the list there has been a dead serious post on the first page of suggestions demanding it be removed - some for OP, some for UP, some "because it killed me" or a variety of other (usually) stupid reasons - but so far all in dead seriousness.

And now I'm laughing because instead of delivering some sort of valid response, you decide to respond with butthurt.

Here, maybe this will help, Sandy.

...

I wouldn't consider this (among other things) a valid reason to put a thread onto a list such as the OP's...

Actually, a list like the OP's is absurd in the first place.

It really doesn't help anything.

Forgive me, I had not meant that it was an actual valid complaint - but rather that they felt it was. :P

Of course now if you are THAT new to gaming forums...... :rolleyes:

Oh, I'm all-too aware of what people will do on gaming forums. I'm just saying making a list like this and expecting it to make people stop, as opposed to directly addressing their grievance is worthless--if not toxic to the community.

No I have no need to prove anything to you. lol That's the point. I don't care if you "believe" the list or not. It's true. That's the thing about truth. It doesn't need to be validated

LOL OH GOD. That is the most hilarious thing I've read in a LONG while.

Hate to break it to you, cupcake, but when you're apart of an argument, you can't just convince the other side by proverbially covering your ears and saying "LALALALALA I'M RIGHT YOU'RE WRONG I CAN'T HEAR YOU LEL"

Grow up, Sandy. You won't get very far in life if you believe you're right and everybody else is wrong. :P

LOL Just quit while you're behind, Sandy. The fact that you're calling my posts an opinion when you've given no verifiable information is absurd.

That would be assuming they are NOT working on those grievances already - and there is as much evidence for as against - so why don't you follow your own advice and either give some actual constructive feedback - or shut up?

Behind what? The fact that a mathematically vocal minority dislikes what and how PGI is doing what they are doing?
... oh wait... I guess that must be new news to you - despite all evidence to the contrary.

Welcome to the ignore list buddy.

Hey, aren't you that guy from the other thread who used words like "empirically" out of context cause idk, maybe 5 syllables makes an argument stronger.

Also the guy who argued for assymetrical warfare being a good thing and then that you wouldn't mind if all the subsequent technology got brought forward to now to keep the balance of things, so walked away from your assymetrical warfare view in a single post.

That guy was also in the habit of mis representing peoples posts by ommission or addition to bolster his point, and also just ignored points that he could not refute and pushed on with a weaker argument but in CAPS.

He was also derogatory and insulting to anyone who disagreed with his thoughts and especially to PGI.

Are you the same guy??

Just asking :P

P.S. You can use the search function to feel free and verify for yourself. I'm not your librarian nor am I your records keeper. You're working off of the assumption that I care what your opinion on the list is.

In this order,

If by mean "out of context" you mean, "corrected the use of the word" then yes.

I never walked away from the ideal. The only thing I walked away from was further argument with you.

Mis-representing? Misunderstanding, maybe (as I can't read minds over the internet) but I'd like to think most of the misunderstandings between us were clarified. That said, Sandy's position and argument is pretty clear cut. Why you are rushing to his defense, I'll never know.

I only give what other people dish out.

Just clarifying. :rolleyes:

I have been, if people want to convince themselves they're always right (without giving verifiable information) and be butthurt, that is their prerogative, I suppose.

"Mathematical minority?" Based on what information? Can you give sources to back up that claim?

Your loss.

Just because you're butthurt over what I said doesn't make me a troll. If you want to see a troll, I'd take a look in the mirror.

...and yes I have used the search function (even though the burden of proof is on you) and there are a few of the posts you referred to (as I stated before) but much of the others do not exist or are exaggerated.

And if you don't care, then don't respond.

If you really need me evidence provide evidence that ANY number of people from a forum community are at best a minority among the population.... you have just proven beyond any other from of prove that you are NEW! to the internet.

Keep working on your trolling though, and one day you may reach the level of the Vicomte de Valvert.
