Congratz: When people Judge others.......... (in Off-topic)


Zenai [Cult of the Valaraukar] November 29 2009 5:02 PM EST

It's Z and another Self Congratulatory Thread. Think again Folks!


Yes I have enjoyed my fair share of Kudos and rightly so I have earned them. Some of them I never expected(MPR and Tat Milestones is all I ever Expected since Everyone gets them.), and even more I asked to not even be made at all. I do however dole out Kudos whenever the opportunity arises. Yes I have missed a Thread here and there and for that I apologize folks, honestly I didn't mean to miss your perspective Threads life get's in the way sometimes.

There is only a few positive things in the Community right now, with the over amount of Negativity coming out of almost every pore of CB, and a Kudo/Congratz Thread for a Job Well done is one of the most important at the moment. Regardless of whoever's stake in something the person doing the work should get the Congratz for the hard work period.

What really pisses me off the most is some one acting like a jerk and screwing up someone else's Congratz Thread for whatever Reason!

I'm sick and tired of people saying Z is only about Z , Yeah I know about you just like people talk to you they talk to me too remember that, even when I Congratulate other people.

Well if that is what you think you are quite wrong!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Have a look below Folks and you tell me, the only Threads I have omitted is:

B-Day Threads(There are so many and I posted to most of them too),
PR Threads (since I have bought quite a few Supporterships and made some insanely good deals for people and losing millions in the process but that doesn't count),
Contests(I have run several, not so well though, and donated to others once again Millions upon Millions of CBD in Items and Rewards for other people.)
and the
Drunken Threads(Even though extremely fun to post to).

Yeah Z is such a self-centered person that he NEVER Thinks about Others EVER..............Here's your plate of Crow enjoy!

Wraithlin November 29 2009 5:03 PM EST

Dude you made a post congradulating yourself on how good you are at congradulating people, so self centered imo.

BootyGod November 29 2009 5:06 PM EST

Hilarious. Someone just got pwnt.

But, Z, really.... Get out more, man XD

Zenai [Cult of the Valaraukar] November 29 2009 5:12 PM EST

Wraithlin: No I was not Congratulating myself what-so-ever, just pointing out that I do Congratulate others and not just myself as some have attempted to say. The Constant misinterpretation is getting on my nerves.

QBJohnnywas November 29 2009 5:15 PM EST

Z, speaking from experience, when things get like they are, step back man, take a deep breath and move away from the computer, leave it alone. "Relax it's a game." Sometimes you need to remember that. Make it your mantra for December.

:)

Zenai [Cult of the Valaraukar] November 29 2009 5:43 PM EST

"Relax it's a game."

JW you are right and it is the purpose of this Thread. I am tired of people looking into everything like it is some kind of conspiracy. When I get a Congratz I try my best to take it graciously and in turn I give them out. I fail to see how this is a problem in any way or a reason to take a step back and breathe.

There should not be bickering on a Congratz Thread no matter who the OP is. Say Congratz or not but take the Negativity to another Thread if you truly feel the need. I know that many people would definitely not like it if their Congratz Thread got screwed because of a few people acting like a jerk and get just short of trolling it.

Keep the Positive things Positive is my aim here.

three4thsforsaken November 29 2009 5:49 PM EST

I feel like I should be congratulating you because it says congrats in the thread title.

So congratz! Kudos! Good Job! You're awesome!

ResistanZ2 [The Knighthood] November 29 2009 5:53 PM EST

OK dude, wow. Since I'm sure you're talking about me and Ranger in the other thread, let me clarify. My first post "You're technically congratulating yourself" was filled with absolutely no malice. You replied by apologizing for me to my own clan owner, which I took as flamebait and responded as such. If I felt that I wronged him in some way, I would have apologized for myself.

You took a comment saying that you're technically congratulating yourself because you own the tattoo, and took it as an insult to you. You want to keep things positive, by going overboard and compiling a thread that starts with a rant followed by a list you probably spent an hour compiling? If you want to keep things positive, then don't get offended by comments where there is no intention of offense. I made a passing comment that neither I nor anyone else would care about, and you had to use it to start an argument. No need, man.

Zenai [Cult of the Valaraukar] November 29 2009 5:59 PM EST

OpVines: "I made a passing comment that neither I nor anyone else would care about"

I did care about it since it was a Congratz for LR. If there was no Congratz then there should not have been a post Op plain and simple. So passing statement....there was no need for it.

3/4ths: Is that really how it is to be? Is this how I should be treated as a person just trying to do the right thing? If this is the case then why should I stay?

three4thsforsaken November 29 2009 6:08 PM EST

I guess my attempts of a joke to break the negativity was interpreted as sarcasm. I haven't been keeping up with the threads lately, so I'm not sure what exactly is going on. I just...wanted to say something nice? I don't think self condraglautory threads in a game as difficult as CB really reveal any sort of arrogant streak, it makes me sad that you feel like you need to prove yourself otherwise.

ResistanZ2 [The Knighthood] November 29 2009 6:09 PM EST

Yeah, no, you're right. Absolutely right. You're entirely right to go ahead and take offense to posts where the poster had no intentions of offending anyone. Gotcha.

QBOddBird November 29 2009 6:11 PM EST

Z, 3/4 was kidding. Internet joke.

Mebbe take JW's advice, don't look at the forums for a bit until the situation passes over, then come back? =\

Admindudemus [jabberwocky] November 29 2009 6:34 PM EST

do what ya like bud, if others can't or don't like it how does that really affect you?

there are many reasons they moan such as jealousy, bad day, bad life, tight underwear or even cockleburrs in their saddle-blankets (i feel like such a redneck now).

you need a pretty thick skin to survive on the interweb especially in games forums. if you are the type to worry over what others think then it may not be the place for ya. ; (

kevlar November 29 2009 6:34 PM EST

Z, wub ya man, you know that... but I think you're overreacting :) The one thing about these forums is there are a lot of strong opinions and everyone has their little things that bug them. Some don't like polls, some don't like FS/WTB bumps, some don't like mass congrats threads... granted if you don't like them stay away from them, but sometimes it's hard not to poke at something once in a while. Heck, lately someone (who constantly badgers me) jumped in a thread I submitted and said I need more hobbies. A year ago I would have jumped on that and gone wild with it, now? *scoff* Too many other things going on. There has only been one time recently something got under my skin where I overreacted and said some things I could have held back, but G-bless GL for being there and having the insight/words of wisdom to set things right. The congrats threads for me most of the time are a time to celebrate. I can't deny, to me, SOMETIMES they seem more like bragging or are overdone but I just read and move on. Just look at the majority of the posts in the thread, they are positive and supportive. There is no need to focus on 1-2 negative things and go bonkers >:)

When I read/post in a new player welcome thread, if it doesn't have:

"Welcome to Carnage Blender! If you have any questions feel free to ask, there are many experienced vets with answers willing to help.


http://www.carnageblender.com/bboard/q-and-a-fetch-msg.tcl?msg_id=002nhh


Follow the link there is some decent advice there that will help. For everything else pop up in chat and ask around."

in it... the thread feels naked. You self-centered stinkbug ;)

Zenai [Cult of the Valaraukar] November 29 2009 6:36 PM EST

3/4ths: I apologize, I have been dealing with a lot of sarcastic people lately it is hard to differentiate. As far as the rest of your statement, yeah seems that people like to try and read my mind on my every action. Even when I make a point it is as if I am under a microscope or something it's really retarded.

OpVines: Here is my point, it was NOT a Congratz no matter the connotation, so what was the real aim? Again either say some kind of a Congratulatory Non-Veiled Statement or nothing at all. That would have been the right thing to do on a CONGRATZ Thread. Chunking out a statement that had nothing to do with the person it was made for had no place what-so-ever in it get my point?

OB: I think you are right I have had about enough of the negative side of CB. To Everyone this applies to what goes around comes around, if not in CB then RL I just hope it is not too bad for you.

I'm taking my step back now, say whatever you want to folks you will anyway.......

Lilligant November 29 2009 8:01 PM EST

Just throwing my two cents. Zenai, as what I can see you are a tad overreacting. I know, it was just to give congratz to LR. But, really. Who cares what other people say.

"respect others as you wish to be respected." <--- Or something like that.

I would like to think of myself as a nice guy. But we have our bad days. I agree with OB, just take a break from forums. You shouldn't care what other people say. We are a "Community." As Carnage Blender states. We should start acting like one instead, of my household on a regular basis. xD!

ResistanZ2 [The Knighthood] November 29 2009 9:30 PM EST

I'm sorry that I don't express myself completely to your agreement.

Zenai [Cult of the Valaraukar] November 30 2009 6:45 AM EST

Oh please Op it is a common courtesy in the forums. If you don't have anything positive to post on a Congratz Thread then don't post at all.

Your aim while not malicious was still a potshot and you know it. If you had wanted to take a potshot at me why not just make a freaking Thread instead of screwing up someone elses? Same goes for Ranger on that matter, why destroy someone's Congratz Thread when you can make your own Flame Thread?

While not necessarily the biggest issue in CB it is still something that absolutely should not be tolerated or allowed in the Forums. Congratz Threads are for Congratz not veiled comments, sarcasm, flaming or anything else negative.

As I said above it is one of the last/few positive things in CB let's leave it that way!

QBRanger November 30 2009 9:12 AM EST

Unless things have changed recently, and some things in CB have, the forums are open to everyone to express their opinions.

Whether good, bad, indifferent, everyone gets the same opportunity to express their opinions on the topic de jour. As long as they are civil and PG it is ok.

If you post, be prepared to view different opinions. There is no hard and fast rule that all of these or that thread are off limit to all but piling on the manure. No matter what the post.

Never in any of the threads you mention did anyone state Z did not think of others. I think you used flawed reasoning to come to that conclusion.

But I and perhaps I alone, think it is in poor taste to congratulate oneself in the forums.

Perhaps if your post was "Congrats LR for leveling to 12M", I may have perceived it different. LR has done an incredible job with his NCB. Very remarkable to say the very least. But he is just super leveling a tattoo. Not, IMO, a real great feat. If it was his own tattoo, perhaps.

But a thread like this serves no purpose except to bring up another thread that was dying down.

three4thsforsaken November 30 2009 1:28 PM EST

There are quite a few people active in forums Z. There will always be few people that might get you annoyed or turn you the wrong way. But from I saw from your 12 mil thread (I assume this is what this is about) there was a lot more positive congratulating than not. Just because a few people aren't supporting the positive atmosphere doesn't mean the system is crashing and burning.

It seems like the purpose of this thread was to prove something to just a few members of the community, but you aren't going to change their perspective. Meanwhile, the thread does nothing to the rest of the community, because they congratulated you, they never doubt you in the first place.

If you expect the rest of us to turn around and get angry at the people that "wronged you" that's not going to happen either, the thing is, we don't want to get angry at each other. Even if they disagree with us, or imply things about our character, being angry at each other is no fun. It's not something that we want part of our gaming experience, which is why we are here.

What I'm pretty much asking is for you to focus on all positive energy in the community, even though there is some negativity floating around, don't let that ruin your experience.

Zenai [Cult of the Valaraukar] November 30 2009 10:58 PM EST

3/4ths:

"If you expect the rest of us to turn around and get angry at the people that "wronged you" that's not going to happen either, the thing is, we don't want to get angry at each other. Even if they disagree with us, or imply things about our character, being angry at each other is no fun. It's not something that we want part of our gaming experience, which is why we are here."

Nah not my aim bro, I am perfectly fine with standing on my own. I'm not asking for help from anyone and I certainly do not wish people to be angry at one another for something that is apparently my personal problem. I just wanted to shut a few people up and to alleviate a few others misinterpretations of me. While at the same time trying to get people to understand that sometimes they just should not post anything if they cant post something positive in something that is supposed to be positive.


Ranger:

"Never in any of the threads you mention did anyone state Z did not think of others. I think you used flawed reasoning to come to that conclusion."

No not in threads Ranger, but you know that little snippit above about the same people that talk to others talk to me? Yeah I know about things that people say about me and I am shutting them up about it by stopping it now. If those people cannot keep it out of other Congratz Threads then I might as well jumpkick them in the face for it. Tour-De-Jours!

"Unless things have changed recently, and some things in CB have, the forums are open to everyone to express their opinions."

I never said otherwise Ranger hence my reason for saying that it was a "Common Courtesy".

"Whether good, bad, indifferent, everyone gets the same opportunity to express their opinions on the topic de jour. As long as they are civil and PG it is ok."

Hmmm yeah you are right about that Ranger sure as the day is long. Basically EVERYONE has the right to act like a Flaming Jerk Wad and not only get away with it but Justify it Touche`. I'll keep that in mind next Congratz Thread you have or make.....you know what nah I have at least some Class and can extend Common Courtesy even if I do not like you.

"If you post, be prepared to view different opinions. There is no hard and fast rule that all of these or that thread are off limit to all but piling on the manure. No matter what the post."

Once again yeah I know, part of the point of my Thread is to fight to keep those negative comments out. To reinforce a Rule of Common Courtesy since so many forget when they bring personal baggage of whatever type into a Congratz Thread and ruin it just because they have issues. Not for just what happened to LR's but in the future for others Congratz Threads too. This SHOULD NOT turn into the "Thing to do" not even for a few people acting like Jerks. Just because you can act like a Flaming Jerk Wad does not mean you should.

"Never in any of the threads you mention did anyone state Z did not think of others. I think you used flawed reasoning to come to that conclusion."

No not in any of the Threads but I certainly did get some information from a few people about others stating that I was a selfish glory hound that was making Congratz Threads just for himself. Go figure that I knew the gist of the reason behind this crap before I even got the confirmation huh connotation in the Thread maybe?


"But I and perhaps I alone, think it is in poor taste to congratulate oneself in the forums."

You know what so what bro I do not think it is so bad for others to say look at what I did! However, I congratulated LR, even after I stated exactly this and my aim, You and Op Still persisted sounds like it went from a misinterpretation/misunderstanding/wrongful perception to Trolling because of a personal problem to me.

"Perhaps if your post was "Congrats LR for leveling to 12M", I may have perceived it different.

Ahh so I have to not only Name but Word, Have, and Meet your personal Criteria for a Congratz Thread to keep you from ruining it is that it?

"LR has done an incredible job with his NCB. Very remarkable to say the very least. But he is just super leveling a tattoo. Not, IMO, a real great feat. If it was his own tattoo, perhaps."

Yes LR has done a Superb Job and deserves every freaking Kudo coming to him! As far as LR super leveling my tat that has absolutely nothing to do with the fact that he did put in the work Ranger and I was Congratulating him on a job well done. If you go by that reasoning you just contradicted yourself Ranger. Technically all a NCB is, is a Power Leveled Char, if he hit's a Milestone are you gonna ruin that by saying something to that effect and ruin a another Milestone/Congratz Thread for him. He did one hell of a job Ranger, my Tat, your Tat, anyones Tat it's a good job Ranger and he deserved a pat on the back and I tried to give it to him what the hell is so wrong with that? To that effect what is wrong with ANYONE doing that?

"But a thread like this serves no purpose except to bring up another thread that was dying down."

The Thread yes is dead true, but the Principle of the idea behind what I am making a stand on is alive and well. Have the "Common Courtesy"(Read Testicular Fortitude if you must.) to NOT post veiled comments(or Passing Comments), sarcasm, flaming or anything else negative on a Congratz Thread even if you do not like the Person it is for or the OP.

Just leave it the hell alone.

QBsutekh137 November 30 2009 11:07 PM EST

And to think, just a couple Saturdays ago I was part of three or four threads that were all summarily closed because they were deemed by the powers that be to be too contentious.

Yet this one persists.

I don't even have any idea what this whole thing is about (I tried to find related threads and honestly couldn't, I've been off since last Wednesday pretty much) except I respect everyone on the thread, especially Z.

So can someone kill this? Can I get this to stop? Apparently someone was able to kill every interesting thread those couple-a Saturdays past, so can we get some consistency here? As far as I can tell (and no offense to you, Z, I see your point, even without knowing the backstory), this thing should have been closed after the initial post, if we are going for the easing of conflict.

QBRanger December 1 2009 12:57 AM EST

Wow,

All this from one comment.

I wonder if you head would explode if Bast ever posted in one of your threads.

Zenai [Cult of the Valaraukar] December 1 2009 1:02 AM EST

Several Comments Ranger and maybe a Clue to you and others to:

Have the "Common Courtesy"(Read Testicular Fortitude if you must.) to NOT post veiled comments(or Passing Comments), sarcasm, flaming or anything else negative on a Congratz Thread even if you do not like the Person it is for or the OP. ;-)

ResistanZ2 [The Knighthood] December 1 2009 1:12 AM EST

People keep telling you that you're overreacting and you keep saying you'll back off of the subject, but each of your posts is more anger-filled than the last.

Zenai [Cult of the Valaraukar] December 1 2009 1:20 AM EST

Not really Op just redirecting what was thrown at me in the beginning if you don't like it don't do it and this wont happen fair enough?

I did say I would back off yes, and for the anger part of it I actually did. Whether you choose to believe it or not I could really care less.

I'm sticking to my guns Op, I meant what I said. Even if I am the only one to say it I will continue to do so.

Have the "Common Courtesy"(Read Testicular Fortitude if you must.) to NOT post veiled comments(or Passing Comments), sarcasm, flaming or anything else negative on a Congratz Thread even if you do not like the Person it is for or the OP. ;-)

RaptorX December 1 2009 2:12 AM EST

HI I would like to say this thread is too crazy long, and a bit odd.

Zanai and Ranger, you two have been among a very small group who always have gone WAY out of their way to offer me advice and help. And your opinions I respect a lot and even if I don't agree with your posts they are generally good reading. You two are both the greatest. Well Sut is Pretty cool and Proteus and.. well you get the idea. I know you both also like to state your opinions which is usually some of the stuff I like to read the most in forums. BUT,

"We are a "Community." As Carnage Blender states. We should start acting like one instead, of my household on a regular basis. xD!state"

Can't you guys see you are both very opinionated and headstrong and be OK with that? You are acting a lot like headstrong brothers.

Please kiss and make up already? :) If not - Maybe a hug?

Oh BTW, I have found a self-congratulatory thread may be the only way to get noticed for some of us lesser-known people without as much strategy skill or dedication as others. And when I get to 2 mill MPR I am going to make one too. So that's my opinion.

Oh wow. Zenai, now you're just being a troll. This entire time I haven't insulted you and it's amazing how highly you think of yourself. Since you're so "classy", how about you have the "testicular fortitude" to shut up?

ResistanZ2 [The Knighthood] December 1 2009 6:54 AM EST

Also, note the double standard, you can post whatever you want and if someone else doesn't like it, tough. But when someone else posts something you don't like you rant for like 5 days straight.

So we dont like people to troll so we troll and see whos trolling and blast that! rofl This kills me :) Does anyone actually run this zoo. Gratz to whoever for whatever. I feel better now. Your all so warm and fuzzy.

Zenai [Cult of the Valaraukar] December 1 2009 9:50 AM EST

WW: That is actually quite funny.....lol

OpVines: Double Standard/Trolling you say? Hmmmm well if that is your perception then maybe you ought to look in the mirror bro. I'm simply giving you a taste of your own medicine. If you do not like it do not do it.

I have gotten tired of people telling me to rake the high road when people get to act like you and Ranger did and apparently still are. You and people that choose to act like that should have a wake up call.

Testicular Fortitude/Class to shut up. Nope close though. More to the point:

Have the "Common Courtesy"(Read Testicular Fortitude if you must.) to NOT post veiled comments(or Passing Comments), sarcasm, flaming or anything else negative on a Congratz Thread even if you do not like the Person it is for or the OP. ;-)

By the way with no sarcasm, veiled intent, argument or anything else and even if you could care less for me saying it. Seriously Thankyou for doing so on Kefecks Thread, LR deserves a Congratz for the hard work.

Let it go

ResistanZ2 [The Knighthood] December 1 2009 12:33 PM EST

I can cover up my trollishness with smilies too. :)

Anyway, you're boring, I don't care. Maybe you should stop repeating the same self-righteous statements over and over. Have fun responding to this, spazz.

Zenai [Cult of the Valaraukar] December 1 2009 1:09 PM EST

Didn't catch the mirror or a taste of your own medicine analogies didja? Taking these into consideration that would mean that you are what you are calling me because I am acting like you. Welcome to your world.

Flamey December 1 2009 1:13 PM EST

Oh come on guys! What happened to the days that we used to hide our petty insults in vague generalisations!? I remember it used to be like "Well people who don't think the ELB is OP are misinformed" rather than "You're a bloody idiot, mate, crikey a dingo's got my baby for not thinking the ELB is OP"

Yes, I had to throw in Australian colloquialism that's only ever found in American film.

actually Flamey the 'dingo has my baby' migrated to North America thanks to Seifeld...

we steal your women and your culture.... the crazy poisonous creatures you can keep

Z,

Opvines is acting nothing like you.

You remind me of me a couple years ago. Very passionate but quite a lot of the time misinformed.

Opvines and myself made a statement or 2 about your thread which appeared to be a self congratulatory thread.

You on the other hand have typed paragraph after paragraph after paragraph on the subject. Frequently stating things that are simply not true.

The last statement in your opening thread is one of those examples.

It is time to let this die down as it was time to let the other thread die down. Or at least stop typing paragraph upon paragraph of the same drivel. Once is enough to get your point across. Twice is enough to try to pound it into someone's head. Thrice is insulting to people.

Zenai [Cult of the Valaraukar] December 1 2009 3:33 PM EST

1) I never said he was acting like me I said I was acting like him.
2) This was to make several points if the both of you had stopped so would have I.
3) Beyond #2 If you hadn't posted drivel then I would not have returned the favor.
4) On A Congratz Thread Follow the above stated: Shortened: If you don't have anything nice to say don't say anything at all.
5) If the both of you want this to end then stop posting.

If you let it go then I will do the same.

ResistanZ2 [The Knighthood] December 1 2009 3:36 PM EST

Cool story bro.

Burton December 1 2009 3:38 PM EST

Cool story bro..

Zenai [Cult of the Valaraukar] December 1 2009 3:58 PM EST

Just can't let it go can you OpVines? Fair Enough I'm Prepared to go the distance with you if that is what you really want.

Burton: You sure you want to oin this song and dance routine?

QBOddBird December 1 2009 4:03 PM EST

WHY DOES ANYONE WANT TO GO THE DISTANCE


WHERE ARE ALL THE ADULTS


I NEED AN ADULT


PLEASE

Zenai [Cult of the Valaraukar] December 1 2009 4:17 PM EST

5) If the both of you want this to end then stop posting.

If you let it go then I will do the same. <===That is an adult response OB. Just to set it on the table I do not WANT to go the distance but I am Prepared to if THEY wish to continue.

The decision is theirs.
