So a possible intermittent glitch?

Ok lets look at this. I have not insulted you, Only point out your escalating misbehavior, You say I need to Learn basic English. I point out I have a good grasp of basic English and you swear at me.


Sound familiar?


ATTITUDE
An attitude is a mental state that exerts influence on a person's response to people, objects, and situations. Attitudes represent or predisposition in terms of beliefs, perceptions, opinions, and feelings towards attitude objects. There are four components to an attitude:..................You are frustrated because of your attitude.

Oh really, you want to quote a "net search" and fail to include the rest of it's text: "One of the underlying assumptions about the link between attitudes and behavior is that of consistency. This means that we often or usually expect the behavior of a person to be consistent with the attitudes that they hold. This is called the principle of consistency." (http://www.simplypsy.../attitudes.html). Psycho babble isn't your forte. You declare that frustration is caused by attitude. I declare the opposite to be true. A person can be frustrated without giving an attitude. My OP did not, in any way, direct attitude at any one or thing - no, it directed frustration at an event. Yet somehow, this all escapes you. Have you figured that all out yet, or are you still trying to stand upon a failed position in declaring I am frustrated because of my attitude? That is putting the cart before the horse.

I did not swear at you, again an absolute another assumption on your part. I called you a d-*-c-k, but the site edited that out. You are a d-*-c-k. Fairly simple.

When one assigns an action to an individual that isn't justified or accurate, that is called "Psychological Projection". That is exactly what you have done. Take the OP and show me the "attitude" versus the "frustration". Come on, break it down.

And if that is what you have done, then yes - you have insulted me. You take a position of authority, which you don't possess or have a right to, and make out what I said to be other than it actually was. That is a d-*-c-k move, and you were the one doing it.

Next thing, you want to get into a discourse upon the ABC's of Psychology between Attitudes & Behavior? Don't go there, you really won't like the response you will get.

Actually, I was responding to his post before reading any further on this post. It's not a matter of me "taking offense so easily" - it's a matter of peeps dishing out BS. Offense was given. If the hatchet is buried, I'll bury mine.......someone wants to chop wood again, I'm more than willing to oblige.

I was calling the drop the OP is discussing. Yes, all three generators were there and we did take them all down. You must have been napping if you didn't notice us. Just goes to show how effective lights can be if there isn't proper scouting or defense.

If there was a UI bug of some kind, I certainly didn't notice it. If you don't have screenshots or video, I really need to question why you would make a post asking if the generators were removed.

[Scoops Kerensky]

Yeah I was in the same drop, I watched the meters on all 3 gens go down and was helping to shoot them. It was a light rush and there weren't any defenders when we jumped the gate. I think it just happened so quickly you didn't notice, OP.

You "really" need to question why I would make a post asking if the generators were removed? How about I didn't see the Bars on the screen? How about I wanted to know if the PATCH yesterday removed the requirement of having to take out the generators first before attacking the cannon? How about I may have wanted to know if there were changes to CW that weren't in the patch log?

Is that truly that "improbable" of a question to ask on the forums here? Am I really outside the realms of acceptability in asking questions?

Screenshots or video? Again, I ask a question - since when does a person HAVE TO HAVE a damned screen or vid to ask a question?

But you weren't asking a question, the topic title and OP says:

So wtf gives? Drop in a CW defending and get zerged because there aren't any generators to defend any more?

When you say something like that, it isn't weird that people aren't going to take your claim at face value and want some kind of proof.

The title of the post is: "No Generators Now?". Correct me if I'm wrong, but the question mark does give a clue as to it being a QUESTION.

Next is: "So wtf gives? Drop in a CW defending and get zerged because there aren't any generators to defend any more?" 2 more question marks also indicates this could possibly be a question, which in fact it is.

Hmmmm, they do look like questions to me. As to screens/vids, asking a question does not require either. My post is not a bug complaint, a cheat call-out, a name & shame, or anything else of the sort. It's just a 'fn question.

Sure you can ask questions, but when you ask ridiculous questions without using your head first nobody is going to appreciate it. "Hey guys did they give Atlas jump jets?? I saw an Atlas climb a hill that it shouldn't be able to climb why do Atlas have jump jets now?? Herpa Derp" Btw, they did give DWF-S jump jets in case you didn't notice...

You wanted to know if the patch yesterday removed generators, did you even bother to read the patch notes? Removing generators from the game mode or changing how they function is something that would definitely be mentioned in patch notes.

Were you even paying attention to o-gen bars or did you just say hey Omega is getting destroyed really fast they must have removed the generators?

It's a statement with a question mark added to the end bud. I read it that way, and this thread all read it that way as well. Either write more clearly or quit being so hostile to folks trying to clarify, you're being silly.

I had read the patch notes, I asked a question that I didn't see addressed in them. Apparently because I didn't lay out the pedigree of events that lead me to ask the question I did, in the manner I did, you choose to call it a ridiculous question. No, it's not a ridiculous question, however your hoops-to-jump-thru mentality is what is ridiculous.

The fact is you are now backtracking on your original response in this thread stating that, "I really need to question why you would make a post asking if the generators were removed." That very statement has some clear intonations; perhaps you would like to elaborate on your use of subtlety to inspire suspicion/skepticism?

[AlmightyAeng]

Part of the incredulity is likely due to people having been asked, repeatedly, in games "where'd the generators go?" because the health bars DO disappear after they're destroyed. People are just trying to make sure that's not what happened, man, because in the past it HAS fooled people.

#1.) "So wtf gives?" Equivalent to: "What is going on?" A definite question; can't even begin to misconstrue that for a statement.

#2.) "Drop in a CW defending and get zerged because there aren't any generators to defend any more?" Another definite question; it is called a "tag question" in the English language. Because you simply took it as a statement does NOT make it less of a question.

I write clear enough, some just don't know how to follow.

[Tangelis]

Lessons in the English language should really not be given here. They should be avoided at all costs before the English language sues.

Come on now, if I were here to troll, I can see some of the responses others have thrown; to ask a simple question, I don't need any screenshots or recordings or friends witnessing, etc. Reread the BS thrown at me and then tell me again not to be hostile. I simply return in kind what is thrown my way.

False...

Most came here to help you and you have done nothing but insult people and call us idiots because you are in fact to dense to understand that we need things in order to figure out what happened.

When you call the police what do you do....just say "i was robbed, over there!" and hope that by magic they catch the criminal and get your stuff back? Don't be a moron and use some details....

Time, Game mode, Who was in the drop, Screenshots if you have them, Video etc. A detailed description of the event, etc, etc.

I have reported you and this thread since you cannot play nice and dont know how to be a normal human.

Please go play something else...


ps....your tenuous grasp on English is part of the reason we had such a hard time understanding you. 'You dont write good enuff" sorry....

I'm aware the bars do disappear. It doesn't matter how many people have been asked "repeatedly" where the generators go, a fresh patch may result in fresh questions on a worn out subject: old answers may not apply if something has been changed along the way.

There is a difference in "making sure" versus "discrediting the question".

You're right, that's why we all took it as a statement and asked for more details. We're all just too slow to catch onto your well-constructed prose. You have a nice time in your thread here pal.
