Looks like another site switched to 3.0 around the same time.

60 million visits a month! Wow. I know I've done my part but damn that's impressive.

It seems like the other way around usually. You fly off the handle often. Swearing and calling people names. Doesn't seem like someone who doesn't take things seriously to me.
How odd. CS warned me yesterday for that exact same thing and I said "Can you please provide a recent example?" They could not. Although I did confess to calling therewas47 a moron AFTER he called me an ignorant troll and colonels19 an internet street beggar AFTER he called me stupid and ignorant. However, not a single post contained even a "damn".

Your memory is terrible. You should work on that.

Of course, I don't expect you to recall anyone instigating any of the "outbursts" you refer to. This forum is like a HS girls clique. If you're not interested in being in it, you're treated differently. Like someone reporting you weekly for anything or, in yesterday's case, nothing.

Like your little tiff with Only? Called him out as a cheater in one thread. Then started another thread doing the same. Then posted a couple more times in another thread about how he declined a game request? And he was banned the whole time so he couldn't even say anything back.

yes sounds like the actions of someone who doesn't take anything seriously.

This isn't recent but you got all bent out of shape awhile back because I gave a critique of your team and told you that you were looking at it wrong. You got especially upset when I claimed I wasn't trolling.

There's no hoping for anything. I'm just stating a fact and using an appropriate and relevant example. I'm glad to see as usual, when you see facts, you consider it whining.
You aren't stating a fact, you are using a cherry-picked factoid of questionable significance (seeming short-term reduction in world populations) and presenting it as validation for your own preferences. The fact is that while people did leave, as is always expected with significant tech/platform updates, it has also started attracting and retaining new users again; fact is that while some clearly still pine for the days when you could clearly tell when you were "ahead", and recruiting was as simple as staying out of battles with higher prestige teams with more openings, many others are enjoying the hell out of 3.0, the increased battles, and the increased fluidity.

The fact is, you are still whining, clelarly upset that your opinions and preferences aren't more significant to more people.
Not sure how it's questionable. World populations have significantly decreased. There is nothing cherry picked about it. Guys like you talked about how the new game would drive in new players in droves. I'd like to see your evidence of attracting and retaining new users. Are you talking about the ghosted DIII programs from FREEHD? How many new users do we have, and how long are they planning to stay? If there was a cherry picked fact based on short term data, your assertion is it. Losing 100+ season coaches so you can gain 1-2 coaches who might stay 5 seasons is a failure.

I don't need validation. World populations make the real statement. I don't need my opinion to be more significant to more people. Again world populations speak volumes and a large population of the forum would support the statement.

Again let me clarify for you. I'm not holding onto any rollback hopes, but there's frustration when they wasted time scrapping a system that was not the issue. The same complaints people had then, people still have now. Instead of using that time to create an inferior system, they should have used it to fix design flaws in the game. If they are going to waste time revamping the system for this new, bigger, better update, then they should be committed to actually making real improvements and providing the necessary support to make their update work.
Poncho, you're clearly wrong. Everything is going GREAT!

You did it, bevis, you conned them! Good going. I waited to see who called you out on this, and no one did. Now go ahead and pat yourself on the back for pulling the wool over their eyes.

My fault he was banned? He wasn't banned when it started. I recall him posting.

But, yeah, I do take cheating seriously. It's a stupid internet sim game. The VERY LEAST you should get is a fair game. You don't really win anything.

Douchey is your thing. As is hypocrite.
4/21/2017 7:05 AM
Jeez, benis, that was a less than three pages. Hardly a rant. Mostly you being a douche, me saying "I know my team sucks", you telling me I don't know anything and me telling you that you don't know what I know. I've spent more time in this thread arguing with you in the last 24 hours. Find a better example.

I never said it was a rant. I just said that you got mad about something on the internet forums. You said something '******' you off. How could you get ****** off if you don't take anything seriously?
4/21/2017 7:29 AM
And you're a way bigger hypocrite than me. I think that's pretty clear.

He wanted help understanding how he lost to what he saw as an inferior team. Your comments focused on his own team's weaknesses, instead of what he could have done in game planning to effect a different result. Specifically, you repeatedly questioned his claim that he had the superior team. He did. S. Maine was a terrible press team. Your advice was to get better ball handling. He can't do anything about the team he has mid-season. He wasn't looking for help on team construction, he wanted help understanding a result he wasn't expecting.

He lost that game because he gifted a slowdown tempo to a weaker opponent. Mike can correct me if I'm wrong, but I believe he went uptempo and attacked the weaker team in the rematch, and won by double digits.
4/21/2017 8:08 AM
You are correct.

Benis, there is ZERO(0) chance I'm a bigger hypocrite than you. I treat everyone pretty much the same(save a few instigators). You say "Them's the break" when it's one of your internet buddies and "Aww, that sucks. They should fix that" to everyone else that had the same, or at least similar, issue. The fact that you don't even realize it gives me a sadz.
