The funny thing is, you guys don't realize that you're just pawns on my chess board...if you think colonels19 is who I am in real life...then you have no clue.

colonels, i would crush you at chess. lets start now. pawn to d4. your move.

I wouldn't doubt it, you can basically play the same way every time and win...but this is human chess...jump gillispie...I said so...

For the record, I've only been back from my long HD hiatus for two-plus seasons Smith-time, and didn't noticed any big sim classes until I had one in my conference. Presumably by colonels unlogic, this now invalidates every opinion I've ever had about the game.

You may now resume facilitating colonels' attempts to publicly humiliate himself.

Oh,. and colonels has been stalking me on Facebook? Sweet.

My profile pic is from a comedy benefit show I did last fall - I was a lounge singer version of Carl Jung doing, in terribly fractured German, a medley of Dream Weaver and 99 Luftballons. I mean, since when do out-of-work conductors wear head mics? That makes no sense. Even colonels' insults are pathetic and weak. The 'lesbian motivational speaker' crack I got from my friend Will was infinitely better.

oddly enough I am listening to 99 Luftballoons as I read this...

I love that I look at your facebook profile once because someone in another thread referenced it, and I'm now a stalker...way to over-dramatize the situation.  I now understand why you're ****** off all the time...everything about you made sense after I saw that pic.

Yeah, that tends to happen every time I mention the routine to someone. I blame Jung's ghost. Synchronicity this, *******.

For a know it all like anton to not know that sims can circumvent the 6 per class cap...it's like what rock has he been living under...this has been addressed numerous times.

Also gillispie, tell me why exactly I should be cordial with any of you...most of you don't return it, so why should I bother being the "nice guy" when it won't matter to you...just so you can put a tick mark in your column?  Please.  Understand the situation.

I sadly gotta agree with colonels on this. If he said exactly what anton said, everyone, including myself would be flipping him **** for being an idiot. Colon does it to someone, and hes the bad guy? Not sure I get it. 

Poor guy's just trapped by his reputation, furry. He's helpless to do anything about it.

There is a non-zero chance colonels would ever start a thread admitting he wasn't sure how something worked though. If he did, I certainly wouldn't give him **** for displayed some ******* humility for a change.

i have explained tons of stuff to colonels that falls in the "obvious" category to me.

and besides, just because some forum users are dicks, doesn't justify anyone else being a dick. and really, is it that obvious sims can break the rules the rest of us play by? i don't think so. and it rarely happens. so this is a pretty crappy example, if you ask me.

I've asked multiple questions about this game through separate threads where I've said things like "pardon my ignorance", or "sorry if this has been addressed before" and I always thank people in advance for their answers.  There are quite a few of these threads out there, look 'em up.

i agree. you've managed to be civil at times, and have actually had some good exchanges. don't you think that worked better for you?

so I guess anton's sin was not apologizing for his ignorance up front - if he'd have done that no one would have felt it necessary to act like a douche?

Where my posts/conversations are taken aren't always up to me...it's the response/reaction that begets my response/reaction.  I'd like them all to be civil, but let's be honest, that's just not happening...part of its me, part of its y'all...we've unnecessarily ventured down negative paths in the past and we're both to blame...this isn't a one sided problem.

Trevor, look I enjoy your stuff as much as anyone, but this is patently untrue. Yours was the first negative post in this thread, what was, until then, a rather benign thread detailing a minor sim recruiting question...while your statement may apply in general, in this specific thread it is flat out wrong.
