Mr. wanderer:

We have internal tribunals which deal with trouble makers like the aforementioned Mr. Wren. Suffice it to say that he, in direct contravention of Article 85.776(1)( B)(ii) of the High-Screech-Council Commands to wit: "Wasting the time of a great poster on the MW:O Forums in a Public Match in Which Squawks were Given (And not responding to the Questions of "Are you a Premade")" (not to be confused with Article 85.776(1)( B)(iii), which is "Wasting the time of a poor poster on the MW:O Forums in a Public Match in Which Squawks were Given (And not responding to the Questions of "Are you a Premade")" or Article 85.776(1)(a)(ii), "Wasting the time of a good to average poster on the MW:O Forums in a Public Match in Which Squawks were Not Given (But the other side identified us as Goons anyway)"), will be punished by having to take command of the J4G Penal Legion for the period of one (1) week.

We here at the Word of Lowtax thank you for bringing this to our attention, we can only hope that this was dealt with in a satisfactory manner to your satisfaction.

Robotically Yours,
Anders

About what you'd expect for a primarily running premades with some pugging in the offhours... 163/19 W/L, 140/39 K/D

I think the only impressive thing at the moment is the sheer number of lances that are running at any one time. Until Community Warfare comes out there isn't much else to do other than farming for mechs.

How is that, you haven't ruined Planetside 2, yet?

Good luck with ruining it though.

Just power down and we'll spare you a repair bill.

You can trust our e-honour.


Actually, I have done this. And yes, the Goon squad walked right on by and capped. Or shot off a few limbs on the way by because the concept of someone actually doing so was apparently mind-boggling to the Goon in question. You're Goons. Far as I'm concerned, it's all actually entertaining between the various reactions from the team I'm on and the Goons in question.

Generally, I prefer using the team I'm stuck with for target practice though when it happens. Which gets the same result only with higher entertainment values. Or heck, shoot me if you want to.

WoL decided to go with House Liao as their faction when all this started. In my book, that means "I don't waste a fellow faction member's time by increasing their repair bills or the amount of time it takes for them to win, if it's a premade full of them.". In fact, I want you to win faster and easier. I prefer that non-Liao players respond to seeing Goon units with fear, hatred, terror, and other irrational Internet emotions...and if they think of it as having already lost when you show up?

That just makes my life easier, and cheerfully throwing matches because "OMG, IT'S TEH GOONZ" provides me with plentiful entertainment value for my limited electron budget, to paraphrase Anders. Call it planning ahead if you like.

Why yes, yes I am. See above.

(after all, it just provided pages of fun posts that only the truly demented take with any seriousness.)

Isn't that a little judicial of you painting all Goons with such a broad brush especially when you cannot say you know more than the small microcosm that posts in these forums and even then you are measuring one's capability to think based off a few sentences? Your critical thinking is quite flawed.
