#36300363728 12/02/2007 20:37:17 Down the drains

I hate to be the one to bring this up, but what the hell is going on with our community lately? Drama, well yes thats normal and acceptable since we are where we are; however, I am talking about all the trash talking. I myself have enjoyed the occasional barrage of verbal fire that I let loose sometimes .. ie... "Take that" or "ouch, GF" or even on a bad day "You are mean."

Seriously tho, Mara has always had its share of loudmouths, we all know this, but that was mostly in good fun. Even the shake and bake thing was funny until all the colors made my pupils bleed. Now people are getting all serious and making threats, racial statements, flagrant CCRs ... has it always been like this? Ive been here since the start and I certainly don't remember it always being like this. In my opinion Factions should at least give eachother some respect no matter what the pvp of the day has transpired.

This isnt a thread to call anyone out and it's frightfully emo as I re read this, but come on people, even the "RP" folks get along outside of their vampiric love triangles with demons of other dimensions ... ask Fen.

PvP is just for kicks, lezel taught me that. Lets get over the who is a better trasher ... or who can pee further business

plz
kthnx

This man speaks the truth, a lot of people seem like they are extra aggressive or angry or something lately. I totally blame the baby jesus. Tis the season.

This man speaks truth. There is one primary reason for the drama, along with several more minor ones, and I'd be happy to discuss them with anyone outside of DN1.

Therefore cave monkeys totally isn't an insult either! I think its mostly its the fact that people are waiting for something to happen, a big global event or perhaps. Something big to band the community together a little, which has sorta been lacking as of late. Though people do tend to get cranky when its cold and it snowed here in jersey today.

Eww, cooties!!

On a serious note, it's absolutely re-re-ar-tarded to get ticked off during PvP. I'm not sure if anyone's noticed yet but there ain't a prize for PvP!!

If you get that annoyed, take a break from it. Go give someone a hug, you'll feel better when you realize the person who pissed you off is taking it all way too seriously in a contest with no point of victory or reward.

My point exactly. SMILEY ...I'm sorry that this thread turned into a hug phest GQ... but there was a method to my madness, and it seems Garu just said it best.

Everyone should chill, and realize, there is nothing to be gained by getting so angry and annoyed during pvp. Hug someone once in a while. You WILL pheel better phor it I promise. SMILEY

#36300364132 12/03/2007 13:06:12 Re:Down the drains

This is the reason right here. I knew this was gonna happen to this server, I knew that boredum and same ol' same ol' mara c would turn everyone agenst each other or everyone will turn crazy or both. I offered solutions and I tried my hardest to help this community and I was told off and ccr for my troubles. Recursion has alot of problems and no event or any player can do anything about it as long as there are stupid people running around that want trouble and want to ccr others for no reason other then to make them mad.

The whole community needs to get together and do something as a whole about this problem otherwise more really good players like myself will stop coming on recursion all together.

Do something now and I don't mean hug... Do something now before the community falls apart and people start going over to the other servers like I did. I'm sorry people but denying the truth and saying I'm wrong will get you no where. You all can stop the fact that everyone goes to mara and you all can stop the constant *CENSORED* drama/ccring that does nothing but annoy.

Untill you all stop being so lame and learn how to have some real fun I'm not gonna come on much, most don't care but I really did care about this server and now I can do nothing but stand in the distance and shake my head...

If people think Recursion drama is bad they should see some of the stuff in Mara on Syntax.

#36300364207 12/03/2007 14:41:32 Re:Down the drains

Yeah...I talk smack when I pvp, its normally in jest and nothing serious...like this one time, when a Dr was sitting on a bridge while flagged and I sniped him and killed him. Come on!

Thats grounds for talking smack. I think he knew it was coming, so he put me on ignore before I can say a word.

Plus, makes PvP more fun killing the ones with the biggest mouth before anyone else.

I lost my cool.

Fun is fun.. like this one time Mave jumped away and I called him a nerd, so he came back and fought me even though he had 0 mellee defense and then I freaking beat the hell out of him. But then I said gf and he said, "you suck" (mave equivalent to gf) and then we were all good.

Talk is talk, but my point is when it turns into real threats and rascist banter and flagrant CCRing maybe its time for everyone to just look at Maves sig and get lost in the dancing and the clapping and the dancing and clapping...
