Tauto: I wonder if another warning/ban will come my way because of this post
avatar
Lazarus_03: The OP you just replied to didn't even respect his/her own thread. (there's literally zero interaction to those who contributed or further on-topic posts from the OP)
Instead, bumped the thread (and the other thread for that matter) just to throw provocation.

At this rate, I don't think it's worth risking a ban by further replying.
I believe the high rate on yours and other users' posts here and the other thread, plus the subsequent negative attitude demonstrated by the person, already clearly speaks for itself.
Exactly, but I ended up being the culprit and that is my point bias is rampant in this place:)

Good morning/afternoon/local time. I'd like to step in privately and offer some course correction before I have to take formal action.
The post that has me contacting you is here: gog.com/forum/general/im_not_into_multiplayer_but/post11
Please be careful about crossing the line into personal insults.

Tauto: Well, according to a mod, I was insulting you in post 11 and threatened with a ban. Now, the thing is did you cry to the mod and say you were being picked on by that nasty Tauto or was it just pure luck that a mod would think of it as insulting or was the mod being bias? I find it strange that the mod refused to answer a very simple question which proves bias. I wonder if another warning/ban will come my way because of this post,only time or crying will tell.
Not that you deserve an answer, but no I did not and would not go crying to the Mods.

I am a great believer, in that those who are truly decent, see the truth anyway, and so your posts only illustrate the nature of yourself. As they say, things are self evident, especially to those who are diligent.

I am also not in favor of all the negative dislikes here ... don't believe in the rationale behind it.

That's not to say I never do either of those things if something is truly abhorrent .. not just an opinion I disagree with or an insult etc. It would need at the very least, to be racist or sexist or inciting violence etc.

I believe in a robust conversation and I'm not much into censure-ship either ... with a few exceptions.

I was also given a polite warning a few weeks back over how conversations with GameRager had been progressing at times ... perhaps he got one too. I could claim bias if he didn't, but hey all down to the person interpreting.

Anyway, did you truly expect a MOD to respond to your query? Pretty rare from what I have seen here, for them to do so. If you do as asked, that is usually enough for them, and they rarely explain their actions.

Post 15, explains it all.

Tauto: Post 15, explains it all.
Yeah sure it does .... as if.

I just replied like the good polite fellow I am.

As for adding further to my initial opening post, I don't have anything further to say at this point ... especially as I already stated I don't yet do Multiplayer.

I was just passing on information that I came across that might be of benefit to some here.

Anyway, don't you know I just want to have the last say here. ;)

Oh .... and in case you haven't realized like the smart fellow at Post 15, clearly doesn't, a bump keeps the topic alive for others to see, who might just benefit from what the thread is really about, not the stolen agenda of others.

The mere simple post of:
Bump.
Is far more effective (and sufficient) than your justification, if only for that purpose.

In contrast to a post such as this:

Timboli: Ha ha ha seems much is lost on a few of you.

Oh well, not everyone can be the sharpest tool on the shelf. LOL

Bully me all you like, it is just water off a duck's back, and it shows more about your nature, for all to see.

Now what was that about the trees, wood and forest.

Have a good day now.

P.S. And don't count me gone, until I am actually gone ... ha ha ha ha.
which undeniably signals for a healthy discussion, and promotes participation…

But who are you kidding though?

Timboli: Anyway, don't you know I just want to have the last say here. ;)
That's the real intention behind your "bump". — That and to slide more insults.

By the way, thanks for calling the person on post_15 "smart".

BUMP!

Ha ha ha ha. ;)

Just remind me again, why you and a few others are here and came here in the first place?

This was a simple helpful topic, until it got invaded and had no relation to any of the other topics I participate in.

The evidence they say, is all in the words.

So have fun with your goof-balling.

To share my observations about the thread itself and your behavior.
• did those who added to the thread and even asked for further insight on the matter get any response from you? → Nope
• did you add any more on-topic post after the initial one? → Also nope
• did you unnecessarily bump the thread just to add "off-topic" post to provoke other users? → Yes
• have you shown negativity towards others on the threads in question? → Totally
• do the users who have criticize your actions and attitude, got upvoted (agreed upon)? → Ahem, yes
Those are all facts. I didn't invent or pull those out of thin air.

Timboli: This was a simple helpful topic, until it got invaded […]
Arguably helpful.
In honesty and fairness, you've posted info and the related links which maybe useful to some — yeah, perhaps.
But without supplementing it further — addressing participants and their questions, or just showing genuine interest in your own topic — it hardly touch its "helpful" potential.

The "I haven't done multiplayer yet so I don't have anymore to say" is clearly an excuse. Can't you even be bothered to respond to the user's query by saying so? or you know — do more research to find answer or offer a bit more to the participants and the topic.

My apologies for the crap you may have to endure, to those who come to this thread for legitimate reasons.

Alas some seem to have nothing better to do with their lives than to troll, sabotage and attempt to take over ... bullies all.

Thank you to all those who have given legitimate replies here, that have stayed on-topic.

Timboli: Your unnecessary comments, […], are uncalled for and unwarranted, and therefor pointless.
Did you just define your own deregatory posts?
Hint: there's another one at the bottom of your post.

Timboli: P.S. And just for the record, I have absolutely nothing further to add in relation to this topic. […]
I've already answered this in my previous post.

Timboli: P.S.S. I just have to laugh at your pompous ego thinking you have a right to preach to me about your observations. What a deluded arrogant life you lead.
Obviously — the truth hurts.
Says more about you than me, really.

Timboli: […] What a deluded arrogant life you lead. SORRY GOG ... that was not an insult at him, just stating a fact that should be clear for all to see.
Here's are "real" fact:
You've just toss an insult and immediately claim the opposite.
I dunno how that works for you, but that statement (defense) doesn't make any sense.

avatar
Timboli: Think's he is God's gift to psychology.
No, I don't.
One doesn't need any gift or talent to see what have you been doing — and kept doing still. The evidence is all over the place.
I even quoted some of those in my posts to showcase your very own "gift".

It really doesn't matter what you state, it will be just twisted backwards but good luck in a fruitless endeavour that will only produce more weeds.

sanscript: And this, ladies and gentlemen, is a prime example of how GOG's moderators are seriously failing in their job and are enabling trolls to "toxicate" this forum, and also one of the reason people are "actually" leaving...

@Moderators: Either you're blind or you just don't care, which is it?
Hmm blaiming them greatly increases your chances ...

Btw back to my prev question , is this better than remote desktop?

Enough of the fighting.

This is for everyone posting to this thread: Please refrain from further off-topic posts.

Whilst grabbing a game from Itch.io I came across a recommendation from the developer for the program Parsec. Supposedly it allows you to play any Local Multiplayer game Online. I'd not heard of it before, and it sounds very promising.

https://parsecgaming.com/

https://parsecgaming.com/features/

https://parsecgaming.com/downloads/

https://parsecgaming.com/game-streaming-technology/

From what I read this one is pretty unique and their mantra is no bloat, but as I don't yet do multiplayer I am not up on all the aspects of it.

From all the regular complaints I see at GOG about multiplayer limitations in many games, I was under the impression that making local into online, was either not a thing or quite difficult.

Most of my multiplayer experience is from the days of the N64 and some Wii, especially as I never mastered the Xbox controller.
