Erm, KSI, I think you should leave. You're the only one here who doesn't understand what Achronos' point is, but you're trying to tell him we all don't understand. You claim that his poor grammar make his posts senseless, while it's just your inability to correctly read a well written post. Achronos is making perfect sense, to me at least, and is arguing his point magnificantly (certainly showing more restraint then most of us would). You stopped arguing your point a long time ago. Now you're just sitting there hypocritically insulting Achronos' grammar, telling him how he should quote your posts (which, I might add, makes no sense. I does not take up more room and I can tell you with 100% certainty that the server space it might waste, assuming it wastes any, is so negligable- you're just making yourself look bad) and poking fun at him for "crying" before he had a chance to respond. You aren't helping the MLG cause here, and I think you should start responding to his points rather then groundlessly attacking his person.

LOL, im so mad... im on my laptop and i accidently clicked the inside bungie button instead of reply, on my first response so here we go again. Im just gonna answer the questions instead of doing the whole response. It looks like it will be shorter, and easier for others to deal with, im just new to doing it like this, so im prolly gonna screw it up(im used to people with their own agenda trying to make me look bad)
1) The actions of a leader effect that of their followers. Mods=leaders, the kids that follow them and go Agreed=followers. If the leader says yea thats good, or that sucks, the followers are going to agree in higher %s than the average person, BC that is their leader. Also people are less likly to debate because they are mods, and if i debate with them people are going to gang up on me, or ill get banned. Look at this thread, how many followers have come in here and hit me with a thoughtless 1 liner because im debating the mods?
2) I would like to not see bias in rules, and official bungie policies. I would like to also see any topic allowed, within reason, and instead of stoping certain topics, take off more behaviors. I.E. if there is MLG/Anit-MLG flaming, take off Flaming, and Flame Baiting
3) Why the things ive mentioned in #2 havent been changed.
4) That both sides were treaded equally, obvious on this one, but what my point is that he attacked gametypes, not peoples actions, and he didnt do that to MM, there are a few more I could add but that is the just of it.
Now, keep in mind I don't know much about MLG games or their community, but what I've seen so far isn't too impressive.
First paragraph. Let me start this off with saying that mods will never ban you for voicing an opinion, so stop acting like they will. Not only that, but I'll be one of the first people to go against a ruling if I think it's unjust, no matter who makes it. You haven't accused me of being some sort of mindless drone yet, so I thought I'd just get that out of the way to make sure that misunderstanding doesn't come up :) I won't deny that moderators have a little following. Sure, people will agree with them. But what you're missing here is the fact that Shishka wasn't getting upset with only MLG. He was also mad at Anti-MLG. Therefore none of his little groupies would, according to you, favor either one as worse.
Second paragraph. It's not as easy as it sounds to allow MLG threads without flaming. That would require huge amounts of censorship. The people on this forum who "debate" about MLG tend to get riled up very easily, and to keep their flames from inciting even more flaming, you would be forced to edit almost every post. It's simply not feasable. Also, you'll never get something that is unbaised. Ever. To be biased is to be human, and I hope you can see that. Now they can try to make it as objective as possible, but they won't make a playlist they know will just be a disaster.
Fourth paragraph. He attacked the gametype, yes. But is that wrong? Since when is a mod not allowed to say what he thinks of a gametype? If the mods fans want to debate it with you, prove them wrong. It can't be hard if all they're going by is Shishka's post.
