Stop the Hate...

Paradox

2008-06-25 09:57:39

Well I got two invites from two different steam groups today to ask me to join in hating some person or another. I quietly declined both invites, because even though I have had disagreements with different people from time to time, most of the time (and there are a few exceptions), I try to let time heal all wounds and move on.

So instead of spreading more hate around and bashing one person or another because they and I just dont see eye to eye, I thought I would share with you some of my favorite people in this game and why they hold a special place for me. Here is a list, not necessarily in any particular order.

Walking Target - for creating a place where we can come together as a community and share our love for a little game called HL2 Deathmatch.
NinoJman - always does everything he can to help anyone that asks, and is working and thinking as much as he can to keep the game alive.
Fearsome - Current leader of arguably the most successful DM clan in the history of the game, CAL DM Game Manager and DMU Board member. Devotes a lot of time and thought into this game and how to make it better despite the criticism he gets for it.
Valar - makes some of the most beautiful maps for the game and probably has contributed more maps than anyone else to this game.
StoneKiller - My first DM teacher and clan mate. Taught me how to play the game with class and respect for others through his example.
Zman - Always willing to help new and old nOObs alike to improve in skill and become better players, and has kindled the competative fire in me to keep going despite the beatings I take along the way.
Grape Ape - Khaos clan co-leader, without whom Khaos would never have been born or gotten as successful as it has. My confidant and person with whom I can bounce ideas off of and keeps me in check. Who never lets me forget that I once kicked his ass around a few maps and forced him to get better and can now give it back just as well as I dish out (sometimes better). And whom also reminds me ( :? ) that I am older than him.

So I invite everyone to think about those people in the game that are special to you in one way or another instead of whom you happen to have a low opinion of because of some past disagreement or stupidity or their part

shhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

anyways, i totally signed up for that exodus one, props to who ever did that.

and wtf is his problem with phantom? i lawled.

Zman42

2008-06-25 19:27:09

yeah i joined the exodus one at first then thought....why? and left. and obviously im not going to join a group hating one of my clanmates... I agree with paradox that this GAME is too hate filled right now. maybe if more people in this GAME took it for what it was and just had a few lulz playing for once it would be more fun for the rest of us. ps, its a GAME not some sort of bizzarre social stomping ground.
thanks fo teh kind mention paradox :) 8)

and yes feel free to point out the hypocrisy in my post given i do in fact hate a player or two in this game but hey its all good.

ninojman

2008-06-25 22:45:56

ya i didn't join either.


Although I thought a "keep track of Vision's aliases club" would be useful and have a valid point.

who hates phantom???

i never got invites to either group, so i'm glad that i didn't or else i would've said "wtf is this sh*t?"

haha i make no sense on 5 hours of sleep

phantom

2008-06-25 23:19:28

Alot of people hate me. I talked to exodus about why he had made the group, he said that i had made that group when im not even an admin on it... I dont know who Weasle force is but thats the guy who made the group. So him being as smart as he is made a hate group against me.

Blasphemy

2008-06-25 23:31:41

I joined both of them cause i hate everyone.

I like the fact that there is something to like about everybody, regardless how irritating they may be occasionally. My dad told me to never expect perfection from others and that is one powerful lesson.

I DO hate 500 - 800 Pings!

lol exodus once wanted me to join a server with him and his friend so I could help activate the rtv so it can be changed to dm_manor_xxx . I asked him how old he was and he said 17 I was like no way dude you're a minor. He then said oh I've seen this b4 it's for my friend etc.

I gave in and let them have their fun :oops:

Valar - Cool maps mang.
Sir Zman - I will get my title back some day. Very soon :x
Paradox - Khaos = good times
mLiquid - He gets angry when he dies a lot but don't we all???
ace/2quick/the prodigy/the rapist - thx for showing me how prison would be like if I dropped the soap :lol:
All the ppl I've 1v1'd with - I love you all except for some bad apples. (again you know who you are :x )

And the purpose of the post got lost in the 3rd reply.
I declined both invites as well.
I agree with you Paradox and with the other guy who said never expect perfection from others, nobody can be perfect. This is my first online FPS, started by the end of 06 and I’ve seen all types of dramas (some of which I’ve been part of, something I’m not proud of, but we all get dragged into them at some point) but the community praises icons for their skills, regardless of their attitude.

Guess what newcomers think about the community when a cocky pro/semi pro player (which there are many) “pwns” them and trashes them as well, without anyone outside the pub knowing, aliasing or not?. And this happens a lot.

Another problem is when people like exodus and some others are welcomed by the community and allowed to be part of clans with good people or clans in general.

I was going to make a similar post on this forum but to be honest, I don’t fully trust this community. But thanks to it, I’ve come to know more about some people and been able to trust them more, which is good.

But I’ve been able to meet cool people as well.
Hooked Bro.
Beasley Bro as well.
mzbhvn1 Awesome to talk with her.
bahlk The superstar and my Duo Dinámico.
Hierba Not of the type of old friends but we get along pretty good, awesome dude.
Book We almost think in the same way.

And you too Paradox, i just came to know you but you're awesome, thanks for the spell check as well :)

To mention JUST A FEW.

But yeah, stop the hate, hf and lololol like me.

2008-06-27 08:34:42

I believe there is another issue here other than just hate. Why would groups like that start in the 1st place? And why would so many people willingly and quickly join a group whose only purpose is to tell someone that they suck?
.ewЯ|Uncle Rico {EE} #hl2dm: hey
Weasel Force: yo
.ewЯ|Uncle Rico {EE} #hl2dm: so, what's up with the group?
Weasel Force: for the lulz mostly, but also because nothing is being done to ppl who act like assholes in this game. so i made a group to let one of them know that what he is doing is lame, and he needs to realize it, i cant go somewhere like the university forum and post something cause itwould just be locked or deleted, so i made the group
.ewЯ|Uncle Rico {EE} #hl2dm: you got alot of people to join pretty quick
Weasel Force: ya, was easy, when i 1st started it, before i rly starting promoting it, ppl were actually asking me to join while i was in game, that's why i switched it to a public group. when i started promoteing ppl were like fuck ya, i'm in, i hate that bitch too
.ewЯ|Uncle Rico {EE} #hl2dm: so who are you anyway? why do you hate him so much?
Weasel Force: an old clanmate of exo. he left but his stank is still lingering on servers, he's just a dumbass man, he fucks up the game with some of teh shit he does. he gets tossed from a clan or leaves when ppl get tired of him changes him name, cleans out some of his friendslist and starts kissing the asses of the next clan, before long they figure out what his deal is and he moves on again, its just lame, XS probably didn't know what they were geting when he joined, lol
Weasel Force: his reason for moving on is always that hes too good for the last clan, but he sucks
.ewЯ|Uncle Rico {EE} #hl2dm: did you do make the phantom group too?
Weasel Force: hell to the no david blaine, phantoms a nice guy, i'm guessing exodus made that shit after i made this one, apparently he thought phantom made it and decided to fight back, the douchebag was too chicken shit to stick with it tho, after he made it he left, lmao
.ewЯ|Uncle Rico {EE} #hl2dm: but who are you tho? do we know each other?
Weasel Force: i cant say, im keeping this alias a secret
.ewЯ|Uncle Rico {EE} #hl2dm: don't you think that's a little cowardly?
Weasel Force: maybe, dont care tho, i accomplished what i wanted, showing fuckface that he's not welcome in this game anymore
Weasel Force: most of the ppl who joined did it cause they wanted to, were excited to join, they joined to help the cause of justice man, im the voice of justice in this game
.ewЯ|Uncle Rico {EE} #hl2dm: lol, ok
Weasel Force: promote the group man, we need more
I think the guy's a little nuts, and maybe he's going about this wrong, but he's doing something not very many people are willing to do - to point the finger at someone being a jerk and unite people against the behavior. Will it stop it from happening? Probably not, but it may help someone realize their actions are unacceptable and if they keep it up, a majority of the community may end up shunning them.
Hopefully that doesn't mean there will be a new group each week. :D

This guy isn't the "voice of justice in ths game". He is just perpetuating an attitude through his actions.

Maybe his underlying intention was good (although I am skeptical). Definatly the wrong way to go about it.

st00pidity

2008-06-27 18:02:51

its not that big of a deal.

strong communities like the u can only take a game so fr, it can only do so much for the experience, deathmatch needs rivalry, if it didnt have it this would be about as entertaining as golf.

Some people like golf i know, some people want a little more action, heated battles, trash talk. lets face it, some people are easier to hate then others and its not like this guy, the other people on the group, or myself are picking on someone who is completely nuetral, who doesnt have a bad thing to say about anyone and just minds his own business.

here comes the hatredcopter soi soi soi soi

Too much love in this blog, Spread the hate.

Nutri- Gotta be one of the most annoying ppl to play with in the game, your comments after deaths. The "lawls, The impulse 41, the bs, the wtfe's, make you the biggest annoyance in the game. plus your ego is way up there.

Teto- you aint that great bro, youve beat me a few times in your whole gaming career, why dont you call me out and try and beat me up some more.

Helk- Your a hero in your own mind

LukeGT- Well your actions in the past few weeks expalin it all.

Moose-Biggest no talent in the game whoring rpg's behind luke does not mean your good.

Seagull- anyone CANNOT beat anyone. there are different skill levels in the game, no matter how long the other player has played for.


If your REAL ill treat you with respect.

yes that is something but if u watch some of the demos if anyone of them played a player on the hl2dmu now they would get destroyed. But they did ahve talent for the time they were playign at now a days the average skill level is much higher

provost

2008-06-29 00:18:26

Yea alot of new people look at some of the demos and are like ''wtf man noobcakes''

But the U and the years made people's gameplay evolve to a very high level now.

for ''back in the days'' everyone at the fios was really damn good.

Think about it as watching the very first king kong movie. Craptastic right?

Well for it's time it was teh shit, the big deal. Same for fios footage/players. And eventually people that are good right now will eventually find their match through new players who, instead of growing with nothing to start with, grew up within the U with instructors, maps, tutorials a wiki etc etc

I'd like to thank everyone @ the U, you guys are the true pros.

first off, glad i did not make ace's hate list

training micah to win in a couple weeks was my doing 8) looking back on it, maybe i should have played a few practice matches on powerhouse and not helped him so maybe i would not have sucked :twisted: though my match with dingle on lockdown was pretty awesome, though i came up short

and for the record, 5/8 were from my team :wink: , should have been 6 if fearsome's sound card did not die on his qualifying match day

also for the record, in the only tournament that meant shit for this game, 5 $W, 0 cyn gg

And my love list ([not in any order] for those who care :))

That Guy - you've always been cool to me, GL in 1v1 hope you do great
New Guy - even though he's a pain in the ass I still laugh and have fun
SisterFister (omg lol)- yeah he's also a pain in the ass but he has helped me get better at the game and have had some fun matches against him
Modus - he's just a badass that puts up with sisterFister making him MORE badass
Seagull - for making a badass bhop tutorial that pretty much got me started with the hop
MeekMeekle - he brought us caverns, one of the best maps in the game
Swot - also another one of the most badass mapmakers in the game
Onti - just an amazing dude, full of lulz and one of my favorite teachers and friends
Impala - because he mentioned me, and is a great guy too, another one full of lulz
HolyMoly - for making me look good for an entire SIX seconds in the community vid but that's 6 seconds I looked good

911 - Herb and Dallas thanks for all your help

Khaos
reRe/rL - You guys actually bring more teams into CAL. Thanks for bringing more people to the fun of competition.

To everyone talking crap, esp Ace with his hate list, I don't want to see more of that here please. Save it for other channels.

So no lock yet, and anyone who posts crap back in here just to be contrary will get a yellow card and be on the roads toward bansville. :thumbsup:
eeek guess my memory must be off, I just remember seeing foz play when he was a noob against iron and saying how he would never get good. :?

Alright so maybe i got a bit of love in meh...

Few ppl who deserve recognition in this game.

Punk- first off id like to point out that punk has the greatest attitude in the game. Hes the guy that should be running the show! he knows what the game needs and where it should be going. listen to this man!

Nino- as far as leadership goes Ninojman is a close 2nd, really like what your doing with the draft night and what you have been doing with the game.

Blas- played together for a long time now. have beaten the best teams no doubt, hopefully beat some more in the future.

Tao- respect you as a person, never have said anything for me to 2nd guess that

Kandy- Yea real for sure, you seem like you got a good understanding of whats really going on.

Dal- the fact youve held on to 911 for this long.All the turmoil would have made many quti... you didnt. respect.

Def me- great guy all around, you got a sense of humor no one else gots.

Flow- Real smart guy, borderline genius?? hahah also has a great sense of humor

Ratt, something, he's in the hl2dm IRC and he's an admin there, dunno who he is dunno what he does dunno how he plays dunno how he acts around woman, still he's the coolest person ever.

Everyone else, meh.. You're all, meh.

Oh, I guess there's a few, onti, para, WT, some of these other ppl I don't know, I less than 3 you all, :Wave:

On topic: The internet without hate in this day and age seems to me like a paradox.

thanks to all those mentioning me, and you know that you are always welcome for anything ;) (in a non-gay way ;P)
Now... seriously... stop all the bs.
2quick ...I never had a problem with you, and our few matches were really fun, but I can't really agree on what you are trying to do no this thread :( I'm not trying to say it in a bad way...
Now I was just talking to a friend and he said "dude the community has turned into such bs. it's all 1v1 people and who is better than who"
And I agree.... lots of people try to prove themselves they are better than others....asking for 1v1s not for the fun of playing, but to see who is "teh_shit"
I recently saw a 3v3 because I was bored so I got into a source tv. Every kill = spray.... what kind of game is that? =/
I think some people need to learn better the concept of "friendly rivalry" as impala said a while ago.
Doesn't matter how rude the other player is ...try to stay quiet.... otherwise you turn into the same he is ... makes no sens.

I should post this.

WT: Who doesn't like him, and he always had faith in what I do.

Nino: He is the man, an expert barrel roller and let me on his team no questions asked, he is always chill and keeps me busy in this game too.

Luke: Always teaching me something and doesn't care how long it will take, always been cool with me and a big help.

Dingle: Fuckin hilarious and didn't hesistate to come play a game with me in a little home server on a brand new wacky map and still had fun.

conflict: Always cool and chill, giving me tips that most people would never think of and always up for a good conversation.

Fearsome: For everything he does for this community and if you don't know something about computers chances are he does. and will help.

Kyle: You may never experience a game to it's fullest until you play one on teamspeak with Kyle. good

Plasmo: My partner in crime and old school trainer, this dude is the shit.

MeekMeekle: Another old school trainer and another good friend always good conversation and games, and a great mapper.

The folks over at EE: Probably wouldn't have joined CAL if it weren't for EE, and the randomness is just crazy enough to work for me.

My fellow clan mates: I could write some pages on this, they know they have my respect and more.

Onti: He is a good dude, and helpful but he's cool enough that I will go play with him on a 250+ ping with 40 choke and still have fun, that means a lot, all of LsD at that.

Jelly Fox: Cause he's wild like me and we get along naturally easy.

Pig Popper: Can't be stopped when it comes to helping out, a good dude and a hard worker.

Snipe: Man we've been hanging out in this game for what seems like forever and he always has something different to play with, I used to stay on his server hooked I can only imagine the shit he's doing with console creation by now.

Ninjins: He's chill with me and one of these nights we're going to get wasted, old style.

Swot: Without Biohazard I would slap the shit outta myself.(somehow I would know about it regardless of it's existence)

Stoopid and Modus: Who can make a pub server fresh in this day and age and fill it like they do?

Phantom: We always end up in the same game somehow, and it only gets better from that point.

Tim0z: Cause he just don't give a fux, 08

Keeper: Scary to think what we would do without keep.

I know I'm forgetting people but this takes a while to write and I gotta use the bathroom yo, if I forgot you just hook me up with a trout slap.

And for the rediculous assholes = keep that madface on your monitor is impressed.

well, i could go on forever on the people i have had fun with in this game.
It'd be easier to say the people i don't like, but there aren't many at all, and mostly it's just people that get made at me for something they misunderstood. Like i lol'd at teto when he just assumed i hated him, and i just talked to him like any normal person would and we've be chill since. Maybe when i have a hour or so of free time i can post people and whys...

I have found that true friends in this game are hard to come by. I don't trust people easily because I have been stabbed in the back too many times.

I will say that in the last couple of weeks I have learned who my true friends are in this game.

These are the people that despite the bumps in the road, try to work things out. They don't offer ultimatums or place conditions on your relationship. They don't use you as a stepping stone in their own ambitions or agenda. Finally they are people that are honest and straight forward rather than stringing you along with lies or vague statements.

Yes this is a game and people think they can hide behind the hollow digital image on the screen. It is a false sense of security which often causes people to let down their guard. Unless you completely refrain from any personal interaction, you can not hide your base personality. Whether you know it or not, some part of it is projected into this digital realm no matter how hard you try to stifle it. How you conduct yourself and how you relate to others says a lot about who you are behind the keyboard.
