I'm not one who relates humour with being an arse hat.

This about this, you've spent 12 times as long on here as me in terms of posts. How many of them have you been nice in? How many of them have you had to immediately tried to validate your skill in.

Why not just stop being a try hard and have fun?

[Cyborne Elemental]

Insanity is seeing a problem, ignoring said problem, then trying to pass it off as fun and acting like nothing is wrong.

The people who are actually sane, are the people complaining.

I like SWOL because with the exception of one match they always play legit from what I have seen.

This topic could have been a lot funnier though.

Nice? Occasional advice and education about mechanics.

Mostly it's been about balance (being absolute rubbish) and calling out arse hats.

I haven't done much bragging lately, have I? Nor do I need validation about my skill.


I do have fun, that's why I'm on the Forums and in the game every now and then. I wouldn't be here if I didn't have any. The MM does cause some annoyance, of course. RNGeesus is a fickle god.

Now, you need to work on your trolling skills. They're very bad.

The proper term for anyone reading this forum as anything other than idle banter and commentary on MechWarrior Onlines development is what is known as a "quack".

100% no BS, I am actually curious why people cannot be nicer on here and in game to each other. Half the time the first reaction I see form people is telling each other their unit sucks, or why they are noobs, or making snide comments here and on the forums for no reason.

I have played a lot of game online and this community seems by far to be the most judgemental, elitist, and toxic.

There are good people no doubt but in general this seems to be just a very unfriendly place that has caused quite a few of my new players to quit recently which makes me sad.

You start off by being toxic, and you receive toxicity in return.
That's generally how these forums work. And that is perfectly fair.


This community is one of the better ones, so I'll go ahead and call you on that lie.

No, it is actually one of the uptight nasty ones.

My original post was not targeted at anyone one, calling anyone out, or frankly being mean in anyway. And like you and half the others on here do you want to start by calling people out, being nasty, putting them down.

It just intrigues me honestly as to why you guys spend so much time on here and in game being jerks.

Seem to be a weekly trend for him.
He's the guy that ridicules and laughs at the fat kid, then cries because the fat kid 2 pieced him.
And runs off to the Principle Russ saying how he's being bullied now.
You get the picture.
Oh the term 2 pieced is hood slang for a right cross and a left jab to the face
It's good in the hood.

Hello Again Mighty Forum Warriors,

I have come to realize that a good portion of this player base is completely insane and not enjoying this game. They do not seem to understand that no one in the end really cares about how skilled they are, or how bada$$ their sniping is, or that their unit is one of the best in the game.

Allow me to explain, a few weeks ago one of my members created an ranking of units based upon his opinion and half as a joke. Someone sniped it and put it on reddit with a name that looked similar to his in game screen name. Honestly, we had a huge amount of fun trolling the community with it even though that wasn't the original intent, but there was something that amazed us. HOW MUCH PEOPLE CARED!

Oh yes, random player from the internet creates a power ranking and man oh man were people upset. We had so many people upset at there rankings, others were hurt they were not included, and only a few actually realized how funny the whole thing was. Some of our unit members that are into psychology think this community is worth studying as there entire existence seems evolve around being validated in a game involving glitch stompy robots.

As much as we enjoy being able to rile 3/4 of this community up at a given point I've decided to do my weekly good Samaritan act (Editor note: lol) . For those of you honestly riled up to the point where you're getting upset and expending all of this energy on this dumb game...... STOP!

That is right, just stop.

When you feel you need to post that screen shot to show how awesome you are just stop.... no one cares or will remembers how cool you did in that game. I personally have had those 3000, 4000+ games. Want to know how many screen shots I have taken, none. I don't care if you believe me or not, in the end it really doesn't matter or make me enjoy the game more.

When you are getting ready to defend yourself and get all self righteous stop.... take a lesson from SWOL, just tell them you suck. It makes it all the more funny when you roll them.

Spend a minimal time on the forums..... honestly, no one cares or will remember your posts in a year or so from now. Being validated here means nothing.

And with that note I have no wasted enough of my time and am gone.

Blueduck, on 16 January 2016 - 12:19 PM, said:

See, look at all the negativity you need to spread. Can't you just say something nice or not at all?

Do you really need to post all your little screen shots (posting a single screenshot, you seem upset by it), try to argue I'm too defensive (you are certainly trying to avoid the truth), and then make up stuff to make yourself feel better? (make what stuff up? Are you lying again Duck?)

Can't we just be a little nicer to each other? (That's a 2 way street)

And I've deduced...you are trying to troll, by spreading a handful of lies, avoiding the point, and not doing exactly what you've stated in the OP.


You start by calling the community insane, and that we're here to be validated (and not to discuss shooty stompy robots, and play shooty stompy robots).
So, you've attacked the community, say you haven't, and say it's all a thought experiment...what does that say about you?



Silly BlueDuck. GreenDuck.
Duck person.


Did you edit that title especially for me? I'm honoured. Big bad internet man needs to attack people over the interwebz.

Kinda throws your OP objective out of the window, and your trolling into the spotlight.

Now look at this Mcgral, now you're doing posting "evidence". Look at what you are doing, I'm honestly asking you just to be nice.


Here, I'll break the ice.


I've played with you before Mcgral and I think you're a really good player. I'm not certain what unit you're in but if you're there they must be pretty good.
