WE ARE THE CHALLENGE

Some of us do care, so your message isn't wasted.

Yup. I'm just a grumpy vet who doesn't like to be challenged. It's definitely not that some newbie came in and was like "wow all you need is to not let commanding get to you" and when when I put up a tongue-in-cheek rant about how frustrating commanding often is, he responded "well clearly you should attend my leadership seminar."

Based on this and what you say on Discord and how you behave in-game you appear disgruntled and appear to be taking this very personally. I am sorry I did not mean to do that. I think my English language skills and poor oversight are to blame since it would appear that while I intended to speak about the whole community and all of its members, I have failed and focused too much on you personally. I will stop now since this does not seem to be leading anywhere and I have maybe seen what was there to be seen?! Perhaps move this thread to rants or lock it or whatever? Or keep discussing!

For those unwilling to read too much:

1. Maybe mind the others since they are the ones you shoot at day after day?

I really haven't laughed that much from an allegiance post in a LONG time.

League of Legends?!

Also, why should the commanders take the "suck on the loss" part, when whoever is playing the game, will usually bitch and blame him of his "poor" command skills?

Pointing out mistakes is the way of improvement, some may do it in a more "civil" manner, others will just bitch about it. You need to have the maturity to let the children get on their bitching and learn what you should take as a lesson and whatnot.

You know, the way you described as things happened, ppl was very carebear when dealing with you. During my noob times I remember getting booted for justing launching a fig and having a number attached to my callsign. I wish those days came back just for the $#@!in forum drama.

Usually we would get 5-6 complaints over here just because ppl were booted while scouting when there was a bombrun rolling over our own garrison.

Now this seems to happen once in like 10 years, and from ppl being partially "educated" when talking over a video game.
