To clear things up
Posted: Fri Apr 24, 2009 3:33 pm
Well today I was insulted as more things than I can possibly count. Things happened and this is the long version.
For long I've been playing on this server. I prefer playing against good players as only challange can improve my skills. I prefer joining the losing side for the sake of fairness.
Today I joined a game where aliens were raping humans. I joined the human team. I managed to get my team s3 with my awesome, unparalled god-like skills. Then the aliens had the hard time.
We hurt the alien base pretty bad. After some time had passed the aliens managed to get tyrs. This changed the tide of the game. I changed my tactics from offensive to defensive.
Soon after this redman joinend the game. Maybe because he hates me, maybe not, he joined the alien team. Now the teams were balanced 3 good players against 1 (in my opinion. Of course I didn't even have a full knowledge of all the players on the server).
-My definition of a good game: Skilled players on both sides.-
In the past month 9/10 of good games I had played, were balanced towards the enemy team. In fact, in those games all the good players had stacked into the enemy team (losing isn't hilarious).
Well I knew what was gonna happen: long camp with no chance to leave the base. People calling eachother campers and stuff.
This time though, I decided I didn't want to ruin my good mood caused by the starting of the weekend. I joined spectators and decided to watch for a while before leaving the city to my family's cottage.
This however caused a huge reaction from the alien team. These are the phases of that reaction:
1) People are asking why did I leave?
2) I explain why.
3) Redman insults me a sore loser adding some neat details of my personality.
4) I explain my reasons a bit further and ask him not to insult me.
5) He pretends he didn't insult me.
6) I make an example: "Redman, you a childish idiot. I'm not insulting you. It's a fact". With this I tried to show him his insult. I agree this example was extreme, caused by my frustration, caused by the doubts of my friends and the insults of an individual.
7) Spectre says that as an admin I should set an example.
Now we finally got to the example part.
It was implied that my personality was to hate losing, always gor for win, childish and not being able to do my duties as an admin.
I was being pressured. My name was being devalued. I had to respond to these accusation. However when I did, I was again called childish for not being able to ignore them. Spectre said that as an admin I should have ignored the shit thrown at to me. Also as an admin I should have defended the human team to the end.
I am only human. I had played too many games against my friends. I had gotten bored of it.
Try to imagine how awful it is to fear losing the respect of one's friends and being insulted.
No fun, dudes, no fun.
