I don't really care what rules I'm breaking with this. I honestly don't. This is RIDICULOUS.

Where did a lot of you, including a few of the moderators, find it necessary to be a complete ass to Cryptic Guardian for This post? This is disgusting. What the hell are you guys thinking?

When a thread turns into that, especially with some of the (supposudly) more respectable members around here, including a few of the moderators, it makes me want to not hang around this place anymore. This is just a load of crap.

Grow the hell up. All of you.

It's fun to make jokes, but this is pretty damn abusive.

It was a cold day near the southern base in Blood Gulch. Cortana and I were relaxing over a game of Go Fish, WHEN OUT OF NO WHERE 700 BANSHEES CAME FLYING IN!!! I GRABED MY SPARTAN LASER AND LET HELL REIGN DOWN UPON THEM. I HOPPED IN THE NEAREST WARTHOG AND TOLD CORTANA TO GET IN.

Nobody is being an ass.

Of course you're not. You're just having a jolly old time making fun of someone for their well formatted post. You're acting like an 8 year old.

Not to mention that post is beyond saving anymore. There goes any good discussion to be had about the topic.

Eh, I didn't really like it either. CrypticGuardian is one the the better members around here.

I just kind of skimmed through to see if I could spot any negative posts. It seemed that a lot of people were congratulating the OP.

The last two? It's just spam.

I actually had some respect for Reiginko at some point. This is really sad. I just can't believe you guys do stuff like this. It really is abuse.

I can't seem to find anything majorly objectionable, but then I just skimmed the topic just like you did (so I probably missed something important). Could someone perhaps fill us in on whats wrong in that thread?

Reiginko is one of the most intelligent members of this community, always has been. What's wrong with having fun at someone else's expense?

Wow, I just saw Reiginko's posts. Oh wow.

If it were spam, it would be locked.

Need help finding skulls, make sure to go here.

Posting in the format he posted in was funny, at first. But, it seems that like all jokes around here, it got really old really fast when everyone started to do it. It upsets me that members here would actually make fun of someone who puts together guides, and most of them are the same people who have complained about how this place is going down hill. The guides can only help, and I see no reason whatsoever to actually make fun of someone who is only trying to make B.net better.

No, a Guide lets you know how to use a themebuilder or get IRC running or something difficult. That thread, however, described what colors are used in the titles. I mean, come on.

That thread had no useful information whatsoever. So it was repurposed, to create some useful entertainment.

How the hell is CrypticGuardian only Heroic member? I am Heroic.
He contributes SO much more. He has stickies too (or did....). He should have a special title.

Btw: I agree with Zag. it was kinda immature to do that...

Ah, I just read some of that, and I see what you mean. That was getting pretty bad. I mean, really, did they actually feel the urge to bash someone over the internet???

CG was just trying to help, as I see it, -the new layout was pretty confusing at first- and it turned into a spam-fest.

That was pretty lame of them.

Dude, Pimps at Sea is like Halo, going 30 knots in a harbour, being chased by clippers and Man-o-war. And the Man-o-war are firing.

I have reviewed the thread in question and find that the sarcasm and spam displayed in the thread were uncalled for, considering the intent of the original poster to provide useful information to all.

But it was frakking hilarious.

No, no. Wiping someone's ass for them is helping. Stick your nose up it is something different entirely.

That doesn't negate the fact that it was intended to be helpful, and is in no way detrimental. Just because it isn't helpful for you , it doesn't mean it isn't helpful for someone else. Besides, something not being necessary doesn't mean you should insult the OP, especially if it was made for the right reasons.

lol.

Now come on, that thread was really pointless. Wasnt it CG who made a simmilar (and just and lenghty) thread explaining GMT, Daylight savings, and how it affects the bungie posting experience?

finale
Its only a bit of fun, get a sence of humour, its just the internet its not like we took a whizz on his mother or anything.

No, at this scale, and with certain words a few people were exchanging, it becomes less fun. It really does. I'm not even the victim here, and I am really not happy with what they're doing.

Zag, I see it only as some fun, if Cryptic had a problem don't you think he would have said something?
