Well there is no flip flopping going on. You're just over looking the keywords.
Well, I admit that your horribly unclear way of trying to make a point may have been misconstrued as flip-flopping when in actuality you were simply not making much sense. I'm not saying that you don't have a valid point, and I'm sorry, but you aren't that great at making clear points.
My definition of treason, playing a game one chooses is not treason at all in any manner as I didnt make no pledge to not partake in certain games or what not.
I'm sorry, I don't go by individual people's definitions, but by the ones listed in actual dictionaries. And, again, if you never felt an obligation or duty to the game, then that is the case. We agree on that. Why you keep saying it like we don't, I have no idea.
It's not rambling it's all part of making the point and it's apparent it was too long for you to read as it's very apparent since you only half read it, you missed a lot of the points and tried to fill in the blanks, and did a piss poor job at it. There are paragraphs. If you cant read those paragraphs of that length, I guess it's safe to assume you never wrote a research paper that more than a page in length or read anything more than a page in length.
It is rambling if you repeat yourself and use run-on sentences. Which you just did.
It's not so much that I can't read long paragraphs. It's that, again no offense intended, your grammar is lacking, your spelling is distracting, and your typos are abundant. All making it difficult to read.
As far as writing, I have several stories under my belt. My current novel is sitting at 15k words, and my current screenplay is at well over 25k. Brevity is not exactly my strong suit either.
And playing GW2 is not insulting to the COX community. Maybe insulting to a few people here, and that is mostly their problem but cant be said for the community as a whole and what is actually insulting to the community is the acting as if they are the whole community and or representative of 60,000-100,000 plus people when the number here probably number about 25,000 at the most. And even including those 25,000 people, many play GW2, and many dont hold that strong of a view to thing merely playing a game is a form of treason to the community here.
Every single thing you said there was based on assumption.
If you take the time to actually read what I'm saying instead of trying to pick an arguement you will realize the point I'm making. Serious read firt, respond second. It will be easier for you. If you cant take the time to read and rather resort to insulting snark,...
How could I respond to nearly every sentence and not read it?
...then dont bother and simply dont play GW2 if you think it's treason to your group of people. Unfortunately for you, not everyone in the world hates NCSOFT. Get over it. And many will choose to play GW2 or any other NCSOFT title that they choose regardless of what you or anyone else think is a treason like act. But maybe it's best you do the GW2 community a favor and stay away from it and stay within your finger pointing traitor calling group. Dont need people like you messing it up and definately dont need that type of attitude there or in any game. Bad for business and fouls a community's image. Yeah dont play GW2, that may be the best choice.
Pardon me....
Sorry, had to clear all the words out of my mouth that you just put in there.
I never once said I hate NC$oft. My opinion of them is easy to guess, but your attributing statements to me that I didn't make. I also never specifically said it was traitorous to play GW2. I said I was considering playing it and asked the community for input.
(Sheesh, and you said
I was insulting
you...)
And sure you can express yourself as part of the community, but you seem to be coming off as if you are speaking for the entire community. As if playing GW2 is somehow betraying the community and if they are showing strong hate for NCSOFT is also treason by your definition.
Again, you repeat yourself. No, I never said that playing another game is a betrayal. I was asking for opinions on if others thought it was. And show me where I said "the entire community hates NC."
Prostitute-sex worker who usually perfomr sex acts for money.
Call girl-sex worker that usually perform sex acts for money that is contacted through telephone that may or may not work for escort agency.
Simple example- A prostitute may also be a street walker, aka, not a call girl. And thus as i said before they are not always interchangable.
I understand that you are probably quite young and don't understand the elasticity of certain words in the modern English language. I don't like it, but it's a fact. Call girl and prostitute may not be 100% synonymous, but they are interchangeable.
What you are saying is basically like saying that a square is rectangle and all rectangles are squares. Which is not true.
Um... no, I was totally not saying that.
How about doing some research on it before making assumption and learning what a call girl actually is first before arguing a point where you used an analogy completely wrong and seem to blind or afraid to confess you messed it up.
Completely wrong? You were at least two more wronger... (Sorry, had to throw in a joke. If anyone gets the reference, props to them.)
I already know what the definitions of each are, and I know I'm right. It's common knowledge that the term "call-girl" can be used as a nice way to refer to nearly any prostitute. I find it very strange that you going on a rampage such as this because I said call girls are prostitutes.
The short version. Really, you are not looking for opinions. Your mind was already made up when you started this thread.
Well, crap. Since you can obviously read my mind and know what I want better than I, I should have just PMed you.
So here is a direct simple question for you,
Oh, goody. Question time. Lay it on me.
as more than likely, I probably wrote more beyond your reading skill level again and since their is no pictures you probably wont get it again.
Seriously? More mindless insults?
Either play GW2 or not. No one gives a crap really. If you are worried about people calling you a traitor, then simply dont play and follow that group. If you are brave enough to make your own decision, make it and stop clowning around and calling or insinuating that people that decide to play certain games are traitors. Although you are free to think such thoughts, but that is your illogical thought process anly you can solve. If there is not enough hate for NCSOFT here, I'm sure there are plenty of other places where you can get your fill of NCSOFT hate.
Wait, where was the question? All I saw was you repeating things you've already said before.
By the way I never said the admins said anything about treason. You're the one that is viewing it as treason to play certain games or not. I said they allow and dont banish people, like your probably would do if given the power, for playing other games. In the other game section their is a thread title called GW2. That shows that many here, actually already play GW2. Guess that mean in your eyes, there are lot of traitors to the community huh.
Again... When did I
ever call people out as traitors? Hmm? All I said was that if you held yourself to an ideology and then went back on it, you are, by definition, a traitor. It's not me. It's Merriam-Webster. If you don't feel comfortable with that, that's your problem.
Oh well. Tough. Now live with it. Your move.
Wow... just... wow.
A What are you going to do about it? Nothing but call names and miss points and jump to assumptions and twist stuff around? You are very good at that. Almost expert level really.
Wait, so first I'm an unintelligent person who can't read a long paragraph and needs pictures, and then I'm an expert at twisting words?
Oh yeah, no offense. Kinda torn my butt. More like, "If you play GW2 you are a traitor to the community." If you was torn about it, then you wouldnt have bothered to insinuate that playing GW2 is a treasonous act in the first place.
I miss my friends that went to the game and would like to see them. But on the other side of the coin, I don't really want to support anything that NC$oft does. You are taking the whole "traitor" thing waaaaaaay out of proportion. It was one tiny remark in my original post.
You know nothing about treason. You know nothing of taking an oath to serve this country and see a person betray that and put lives in danger
Are you sure you want to make that assumption?
but have the audacity to come in here and insinuate that playing a certain game is on that same level.
Show me where I said that playing GW2 is on the same level as high treason to ones country. I used the word traitor with it's core definition in mind. You are the one elevating it to something that I never intended. That's your problem, Jag.
Lastly while ya throwing around the tldl stuff, my post you replied to was 625 words and your reply to it was 649. So before saying something is too long, count your own words. It makes you look idiotic to say one is too long but write one that is even longer because you didnt read it all to get the point and dont like it so you look for something to argue about and insult and ignore the points.
Congratulations. My post was about the same size as yours. However, I was not necessarily referring to that specific post, but to your general style of posting. It would seem 90% of your posts are literally hundreds of words long. This one, for instance is well over 1k.
I never suggested that you were less than an intelligent person (as you have done many times to me), I only suggested that you are not great at getting your point across. And, at the same time you are saying I do a piss poor job of understand you, you seem to think I am calling people traitors for playing when the very reason I considered the game is because
my friends are there. You see the irony?
Look, Jag. I have no problem with you. We obviously don't see eye to eye, and that's just fine. I am not calling anyone a traitor. I guess I just feel a strong loyalty to the ideology of CoX and it's community. Sure, the community makes the game, but the game also makes the community. NC$oft wronged us, and I am not happy about it. If I have to betray my own personal feelings about them to see my friends, I just might. That is why I am torn.
I came here looking for opinions, and I accepted the answers to my question as what they were, even the ones I don't necessarily agree with. What I did take offense to is a few people in the thread suggesting my premise was wrong. That is why I argue.
