Shouldn't your name be tinyA then?

And who the hell is the Patron Saint of super-yummy cookies? I want to met him.

Asparagus was the first funny sounding food I could think of that I don't mind eating overcooked. :P

Well, I'd prefer if they could "export" at least some nice\useful thread..
Wiping years of user data just because of a few trolls isn't ideal.

Yes, I had a good laugh when I read your comment. But then I got a little sad, because I recognized that I wouldn't be surprised if a Patron Saint of Overcooked Asparagus really exists.

Kill everything but the game specific forums, including a few of the users.

Start over.

Btw they already tried this and the result was this clunky GreyGOG.
They aren't capable to start over properly : \

Name-calling makes you such the macho man.

But thank you again for demonstrating the deep down problem with these forums.
This all started with the intolerant people like Real, like Breja, like any number of other people who cannot stand being disagreed with. Not saying these specific people have taken all these actions, but as a mob group of "forum regulars", they helped create what we have today.

Even some of the trolls might have been reasonable at one time, I don't know, hard to go back, but when these people think they are entitled to name call, entitled to downrep, entitled to bully and harass those with opinions they disagree with, these people started the problem that snowballed into what we have now.

At least I don't remember some of them going off the rails as bad as they do now, but what do they have to lose. Their rep is in the negatives, every post they make gets low rated and it doesn't matter if they are making a reasonable post or not. There is no incentive for them to be nice anymore. And where did that start?

This forum has always been a bit catty and insular. Say the wrong thing in the wrong thread to the wrong person and one gets ostracized by the regulars. Say something bad about TinyE, even something he deserves should as he ought not to spam every thread, and you end up on the outs with this bully brigade.

Real, I can't stand you either. Our disagreement started over the contention that these gifting games were causing the problems on these forums. That by being nice, us gifters ruined the forums by attracting scammers and then spammers. It's just like saying the clothes some women wear invite rape. It's just victim blaming. And frankly, people who aren't smart enough to understand this aren't smart enough to understand a lot of things.

But hey, you felt you were a forum regular and I was not. How dare someone like me disagree with you...that is the big problem on these forums. Self-centered people who deep down have contempt for any opinion which remotely differs from theirs.

They used to. Ask infinite9. I wish I still had the emails from GOG telling me they had cut off his access to the forum for 24 or 48 hours or whatever it was.

Wrong, douchebag. I gifted more games than I bought for myself here. I contributed to TBBBBOB, the Community Giveaway, some other giveaways, had numerous own giveaways and even had one massive event where I gave away 100 GOG games (not $1 Humble Bundle Steam keys). I went MAHAYO (which you still wear as your forum title) before Momo established it. I openly stated that Sachys was going too far with his "DO GIFTING LIKE I TELL YOU TO DO IT OR DIE!!!!!!!!" attitude. I never said gifting is a problem. We never had any disagreements because of gifting.

We had our little "discussion" because of your beloved known scammer threads. I said they're useless when every scam happens with newly registered Rep: 0 accounts (which was still the case back then) and that it'd be a better idea to give new traders some basic guidelines (don't trade via PM, check the successful trades thread, ask known traders for help, lower rep goes first, etc.) to avoid scams. Then you fuckface immediately started screaming at me for "supporting scammers". That's the day where I lost any trace of respect I may have had for you. You're just a screaming idiot who lacks reading comprehension.

Now to the fun part: Your total lack of reading comprehension. You don't get what people say and you read things that were never written.
Where did you get that I can't stand being disagreed with? Show me that post.
Where did I downvote someone? Where did I bully or harass someone I've disagreed with?
Bullshit, see above.
Where did I say this?
Where did we disagree in this thread? I made a posting and you dropped some gamergate brainfart that got nothing to do with what I said.

Let's see where I did all these things. I only made three posts in this thread, so it shouldn't be that hard to find the quotes.
They can't anymore. source

No one at GOG remembers how to do that.

Here you go with calling be a douchebag now. Talk about sexist and homophobic commentary given that you think douchebag and cocksucker are insulting terms. Hope that goes over well with the social justice brigade, although I might have to agree with them a bit in this case. The choice of insults can say something about a man. Good to see you like acting 12 years old.

Fine, it was over the known scammers list that you personally found useless but you also posted in defense of Hedwards when he was going off on people. Nothing like continuing to fight years old arguments that you lost in the first place.

It didn't matter that many of the people you defended were proven to later be scammers. Nope, the great Real is just never wrong. Many people avoided scams by checking the lists and reading about the tactics, but we were all idiots because only the great Real knows what is right and apparently trying to warn people about scammers was wrong and clearly emboldening them. Only Real knows best. No one else is entitled to a differing opinion as he tried to bully the thread closed along with others. EXACTLY what I was talking about.

This is the forum problem in a nutshell. Perfect example. Real pressuring the Known Scammer threads to quit posting names because he thought it was useless and when we didn't the complaints and name-calling ensued. Like I said, forum regulars who think they get to decide what threads are okay and which people are okay to stay. Basic busy-bodies who think they are the only ones with the right answer and everyone else should bow to their brilliance. I cannot count the number of people who later posted how they avoided a scam because someone posts about a new alt who had messaged them. I'm proud of what people were trying to do in that thread. But we are all jerks I guess because Real says so.

As I said, one of the big problems are self-centered people, at one one of them a potty-mouth at that who can never admit to being wrong. And a potty-mouth that doesn't think repeated name-calling "douchebag" "piece of shit" "cocksucker" "fuckface" et cetera constitutes bullying or harassment of any kind. Because he is right and his enemies are wrong. And you are the one talking about losing respect. So many people have to be laughing at you right now.

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

Alaric hasn't been doing his bullshit today, did they actually fix his problem?

If so fuck that, it's no holds barred. They want to treat the rest of us like that fuck em. I'll make Tauto look like fucking Mother Theresa.


They obviously want the trolls and spammers in here tearing this place to shreds so I say we give them what they want, if they have in fact fixed his problem. His script might just be broken or he can't get to his computer because his magnifying glass broke and now he can't find his dick to take a piss, so I might be over reacting here. ;P

Holy fucks. This thread.

right?

<3

Lock this thread and shake hands everyone. This is bad direction you are heading. Especially near Christmas and New Year. You'll embarrass Santa and Father Frost.
