Subject: Why all the hate?

Honestly? An opinion is an opinion. Just because yours is different does not mean it's the only valid one. Stop pulling K/D cards, nolife cards, etc.

90% of the time, people have a strong enough opinion about something that when you start calling them out on skill and other aspects about them (ie You're a retard), it only strengthens their opinion against you.

Open your eyes people. Discuss Halo. But try to keep it classy.

People who aren't good at this game will never understand competetive parts of it. Enough said.

I'll read it in a little while, busy typing a paper right now. Looks good though, something actually thought out.

Unfortunatly, most people who own a keyboard think it gives them the right to talk down to others.

If you want to insult me then just do it. I'm used to it.

Stop pulling K/D cards
I'll pull the k/d card as long as it's relevant. Which is 99% of the time.

Why? Someone with a low k/d has no idea how the game works when the people playing it aren't retarded so they're not qualified to make decisions on the games settings when it will play the same either way for them because the people they face are so bad they won't take advantage of the bad settings.

Because hate brings us closer together. We're one big idiotic family, after all.

Yes, and you'll still be ignored and not taken seriously.

Stranded at the gas station of love using the self-service pump

Do we need to go over why K/D is not a valid metric for determining skill? And why should a less-skilled player become second-class in terms of opinion? That would be like saying that your opinion about who the president should be for the next term is only valuable if you have a degree in political science. Skill and experience will lend credence to an argument, but it is not a requisite.

Contrary to popular belief, opinions can be wrong. Some can hold more weight than others.


Also contrary to popular retard belief on this forum and waypoints, having a different opinion than your retarded one =/= trolling.

And pointing out flaws and bad game mechanics within the game =/= hating it.

  • 02.25.2012 7:16 PM PDT

We can only make insults on what we can see about a player/user. Online videogames are faceless and we have no insight on what a person is like apart from their 'skill'. On the internet having a low K/D is like having a tiny manbean in your underpants.

I suppose rather than having anything worth saying, people will try to find a way to disagree with the OP (regardless of their own).

So basically... Waypoint is pro-vanilla?

Posted by: Sentox6
Waypoint isn't pro-anything so much as they're just anti-intelligence.
