Later netquake. Im done

[Frenzy]

Kinda nonsense to argue about which mod is better.

It's based on a players preference. You guys could argue until you're blue in the face a bout it, fact remains, the end result is gonna be the same: nothing is gonna matter.

Everybody has their own likes and dislikes. Personally, I'm an all around player. Not only am I an all around player, I'm an excellent all around player. And personally, I've found more entertainment in shmack lately than anything else. Ca has become boring because it's the same repetitive people, the same repetitive outcome, and the same repetitive maps.

Shmack, indeed, has a little more randomness, but there is some order among the chaos. Shmack, indeed, does take skill. Yes, it's true, the newer players might get frags here and there, but it's the players with skills that win the games.

Every mod takes skill, if you want to be the best, period.

And within every mod is the downfall of playing the same maps over and over, it's quake, so unless you're gonna get out there and make some new maps for us, then what's the point of complaining? It's like people who complain about the ozone layer, yet do nothing to help the pollution.

Anyways, this is just my 2 cents.

Paradise is not in Spoon's league or yours or Catalysque's, but if you think she's never played CA or is not as skilled as a mid-tier CA player you are silly. She likes to DM 1 on 1 on DM6, but won't win against the elite.

How can you have such strong opinions on things like mods you do not play and player's you do not know?

I think this is as silly as ignorant Quakeworld players that think NetQuake sucks and lags because they tell each other that, yet have never played it and can't name a NQ engine.

I have played it, who said I didn't?

I found it a weak mod from get go.

I have tried to like it on several occasions, and still I bare the same feelings towards it now as I did before trying it.

She can go ahead and like her mod, I have nothing against that.
She shouldn't bash people and assume they suck at mods they don't play. I bashed the mod for its objectives, and from what I have seen of people playing there.

Frenzy, what you say is true in all aspects of every game.
Nonetheless, I expressed how I feel about the mod, not how you her or anyone else feels.

common sense is, if u dont play something u will be bad at it at first until u learn it and improve. it is new to u. u call it trash because u do terrible at it, you are frustrated, and dont want to learn it, therefore u give up and go to an easier mod.

u are saying the same stuff over and over rampage, do u listen to urself? u saying the same thing in diff ways but u are still conveying the same message.

nice job on insulting fuzznut, he is a great person. i enjoy playing with him, even though he is pretty terrible lol, i love having him in my company he always flatters me and says sweet things to me, and is a very nice and positive influence and just a great player to have on any server.

quaker oats has improved greatly, lately i been beating him only by about 5 points in FFAs, he is a very strong and consistent player who learned and progressed very quickly and i bet he can be quite a challenge to u too. he deff has talent, and in my opinion almost surpassed cloudy. but again, u dont play the mod and u dont know the players, so ur oppinion comes from thin air.

i just dont play with these newbs, as u seem to think. there is also quazy, baker and slugnut. they are truly elite players, yes and frenzy too. they drop on the server to play quite often (but not that much) but when they do the challenge is greatly elevated.

me and tical had many games together, with his 18 ping he mostly gets the better of me, but when we played with fairly equal pings, our scores were much closer. he is a great training partner, if i do owe my improvement to somebody, it would be to him, as he has brought up my level of play considerably because of the times i been playing with him.

i am also a proficient dm-er but not stellar, same goes for ca. im sure if i would invest as much time as i did in rq i would be just as accomplished in these mods as well. the basis objective is to control, once u know it and know how, u must exercise it (by practice) to the best extent.

also i admit i would be terrible at ctf, as i dont know where the flags are, because i haven't barely played that mod. its pretty low of u to make fun of me in that respect. as im sure if u would drop in in rq u would be clueless whats going on around u and u would be fragged from all angles as u stumble around with the runes.

I'm bad at it?

My first 2 games there I lead the scoreboard. Its a lot of newbie bashing, its not hard to frag. Besides they already have a hook which I have established in CTF. It doesnt make sense for you to think someone will be bad at something because they don't play it, I have played the mod, and its extremely easy. That is a big reason why I don't play it, its a newbie bashing server and I'd rather play BETTER players in Clan Arena, or CTF where the REMAINING skilled players are.

Baker was right, its not the mod thats so much trash, its the people who play it.

[Paradi$e]

go f yourself ignorant pig. i have nothing more to say to u. and baker didnt say that, he doesnt insult people like that for no reason at all, like u do. just get out of my face, im done with u. i have better things to do then argue with a thick headed idiot like u, yes-PLAY RUNEQUAKE!!!

Lol you get awful bent out of shape over someone not liking a mod. First you get all pissed off because I jokingly say I'd rather stab myself to death with a spork than play it, now you continue to go on with your tirade, its rather amusing.

[Paradi$e]

come to think of it, i think the comment with the spork was a humurous one, but it just hit me the wrong way at that time. but rampage was the real jerk as he called all RuneQuakers trash. did u not read what he said? how would u feel if he talked that way about CA-ers, that just shows ignorance and stupidity. thats what he got the fire for. have a good retirement, wish u all the best, really.

[foq]

cloudy

...sucks. All he does is spam gas grenades and he uses the hook more than an ugly, horny teenage girl uses a dildo.

[TehChozenTwo]

We have an IRC channel?

[Canadian*Sniper]

Baker is elite now?! Wow let me get him his trophy

[Rampage]

Just to correct my mistake, Baker did not say those EXACT words. He said the players in RQ were better in the past than they are now, and the level of skill has gone down. Translated into my level of quake = trash.

[Rampage]

haha.. Larry, you should know this by now, Logic is not of a female's main strength. They are emotional beings.

If you noticed through out our "debate" she mentioned my skill level several times although I pointed out flaws within RuneQuake in comparison to other mods. Her rebuttals consisted of personal attacks rather then speaking about the mods itself.

Regardless, anyone who says "get out of my face" on the internet isn't worthy of any further discussion.

[Rampage]

Oh shoot captain! I almost forgot..

You can't see me

[Baker]

There isn't a "bad guy" in this thread. Ramp's a pretty good guy, Paradise is a very nice player as well.

A shame this thread has devolved like it has, everyone in this thread likes playing Quake.

More people should respect other's playing preferences, it's all the same game.

/Thread closed because it doesn't look like this is going anywhere positive.
