Neofuzz's posts were the most respectable ones in this thread, IMO ;)

So if you want to flame, common, this is the place, flame me, i wont even read your replys...

Maybe the fact that im at work and I was just called by a jerk that yelled at me when he was the source of the problem didnt help...
oh my! you understimate me, I can flame you AND the relevant posts at the same time. also, these last words encourages flamers to flame more on relevant posts just because you expressed clear distaste for it.
Also, if you do not read flames.... why you even bother flaming back? :D and of course you get called jerk both by flamers and non flamers, you are displaying an amazing amount of stupidity trying to quench fire using oil... if you have no idea of to stop all this crap... at least don't do anything... you would do less damage :P

In my experience, offering social commentary in as flat a tone as you can, instead of strongly taking either side, is the best way to keep fire off your back in online forums :P

Lol, i knew from the start i was going to be flame and that i was acting in a non diplomatic way. It was all intentional, I'm sure that this post will keep me and my coworkers laughing at the answer for a little while.

Well done trosky. You have the majority of ire now directed at you, presumably as intended, instead of everyone insulting each other and other nationalities. I tip my hat to you for your sociological coup <hey, that rhymes> :)

To anyone reading for the first time, i dont know why but one of my post seems to have vanished anyway here it is :
Hehe right, forums are such a fun place to study... actually one of my friend did is thesis in sociology (university) about forums.

Its was quite funny to do, i helped him, the thesis is directed at how people react to insults / sarcasm / anything that frustrate them when they are in an anonimous situation.

We were actually *****ing peoples in lots of forums and analysing the answer.
BTW the conclusion, except from the fact whinners are pathetic, is mainly that a lot of the forums user are actually isolated or shy in real life, lots of them cannot defend themself in real life. Other are the type of people that were bullied in real life. Forums are a way of satisfying their desire for vengeance or just to satisfy their need to be listen and to react when being insulted. People with strong attitude in real life are not the main "b i t c h e r" in forums...

Sorry if im not really clear and precise but my main language is french and the study was also made in french.

Ever seen the movie "the Experiment" or read about the stanford prison experiment ? flamers are comparable with the way some of the guard reacted to their new power.

I am going to stand with trosky here, I agree with him 100% there is such a thing as constructive critisism (wich I have seen a few posts about) and there is such a thing as trolling and crying like a little child when things don't go your way (a large majority of posts). Please, if you don't like the game please just leave it behind with some constructive critisism for the devs. Don't linger around complaining and trolling the forums/chat channels. I for one still enjoy the game and MY enjoyment is being hindered by all the whiney babies that are running around the boards here and in the game. Go ahead, flame me all you want it just shows to me that you are an immature little punk who can't handle living in the real world where you can't always get what you want.
