Here's something I'll never understand...

Just because someone kills you, it doesn't mean you should start raging in /all about how terrible your team was or how terrible someone's unit is. It just shows have petty you are. Just suck it up, you win some, you lose some. No one cares how much you carried in a pug. Just get over yourself. That's the beauty of being able to re-queue and try again. You know who you are!

I had 33 losses in a row during the tournament, do you think I ever said anything remotely negative about my teammates? No. Do I want a cookie? Only if it's sugar-free!

Ok here's my Whine for the day:

1st: My Atlas is complaining to me that the Centurion is getting more press and social media coverage than he is. I, mean, really, is there a facebook for `Mechs?

2nd I'm getting bitched at by all the `Mechs in my garage telling me that I don't play them long enough to know them as well as i do the Clan `Mechs.

3rd. I wish there was a way to solve all this without causing too much jealousy amongst all the `Mechs I have current. I wish they'd get a life and stop bitching at me. :)

Disclaimer: Of course, you know, I'm only kidding and this does not really happen to me. If you believe this or anything I've said in this post. Then please see Dr. Russ Bullock or Dr. Paul Inouye for further psychoanalysis on your head. Thank you.

I wish there was moire people in the world like you.
Though I can never understand the "put up and shut up" mindset. Yes it may be nicer for the people on your team but......it is staggeringly frustrating to play very well and watch people throw your effort out the window.
I.E the guys who like to snipe, and will ONLY snipe every match-even if the situation demands otherwise. Sometimes we all do need a bit of flak sending our way.....(sometimes, it's the only way to get through...)
In my experience, "put up and shut up" tends to warp people into odd personalities but hey-ho....

no one can become a better player oif you dont tell them what they do wrong. therefor rage at them if they play like **** ingame.
if you are lucky they remember that moment when someone went mad at him because he failed. might become a better player. if not, rage at him for beeing a dumb pilot that never improves.

When you rage at them, how is that helping them, you only help them when you tell them instead of raging.

keep calm and flame them later.

Oh, both positive and negative reinforcement can work! Though, it works better if it doesn't come from fellow players, but from PGI's rewards & instructions (and there's some whine-worthy material right there).

First to complain - worst on team.
No exceptions.

Got mine in an ON1-VA. I was spraying LRMs like a dog digging in the dirt. I didn't chase the squirrels, my missiles did.

This one doesn't have streaks but is still better.

Currently have it armed with LRMs instead, but while I used it it was awesome.

I'M SICK OF FLIPPING LRM'S!!! Yes, they have changed them a little, Yes, they travel faster. But really does EVERYONE have to have multiple launchers and 2 or 3 LRM boats on their team........................ :huh:

Anyway, I'm going to go blow he dust off my Stalkers :rolleyes:

In fact I would like to nominate the DEV team that decided LRM's needed buffed for an award, the Knuckle sandwich award. Awarded for messing with Karma, LRMageddon was bad enough, a rinse/repeat is PAINFUL.

(Note: almost everything I type should be taken in jest. Life's too short too take a game so seriously that you can't laugh while being ripped to pieces by digital munitions :ph34r:)


Radar deprivation is your friend. My DW is now Missile Free. Unless it gets tagged or NARC'd. However, not to many pilots want to get that close for some reason *scratches head* =]
