Picture Wars

Alright, well I'm not going to change my opinion or apologize for anything I said, but I'm going to leave it alone, since I've made all the points I would like to.

Well, except for one. I just know that if this had happened in a reverse fashion, Ross, BFenix, naussica, and some other people would do the exact same thing. I know you want to and probably will deny it, but those people would've gone batshit crazy.

All right, you guys were right, Lizzrd is pretty good at this game. Still, he's kind of playing catch-up now that BFenix has already locked up the ingenue-driving-everyone-crazy strategy, it'll either take something special from Lizzrd or a serious error from BFenix (like aoffan's, earlier) if he's going to distinguish himself in an already well-developed thread.

It's good bait for Ross though, playing the yes-I-am-a-condescending-elitist card to confirm his earlier allegations and try and get him back in the game. We'll see if it works.

Sloop and Silva are eating up a lot of bandwidth without much to show for it, although it's clear Silva's been getting the upper hand for once in the last exchange. I think both of you guys would do well to think about focusing more on quality rather than quantity of posts, right now each of you are diluting your own messages by spending too many posts delivering them.

Hey, what do you know, it did.

My turf, i.e. somewhere where I'm accepted and enjoy being. There's one reason why BW is my turf and PW isn't. That's because ever since day one on PW, someone's been whispering in my ear, telling me my faults, saying that I fail, and pointing out when I did. This one person's the same reason I began posting idiotic stuff about "elitism" and "elder clubs", and he and his buddies are the ones who finally ran me out on a rail.

There's no reason for me to call everyone on PW elite, because that's not true.

I'd like you to meet my reason.

Hello Lizzrd.

Hats off to Lizzrd, the strategy paid off and that counts as a very palpable hit. A hit on glass-jaw Ross counts less than a hit on aoffan, obviously, but it's still a strong showing for an opening move.

He's been punching me in the mouth since I joined PW, stubby. I really don't care anymore.

See, Darth, that was a mistake, as while the rest of us have the anonymity of the internet to hide behind, Ross can very easily just hunt you down and give you an industrial noogie for posting that.

Enjoy the noogie!

He kept laughing whenever he read this thread, and then he asked me if he could post a picture of lemmings falling off of a cliff with FAIL posted on it.

I cracked up and said do it.

I just said "Go fuck yourself ross." when you said to every new guy joining that I was an asshole.

If Lizzrd's posts over there are anything like the ones over here, then anybody who can't figure out right off the bat that he's an asshole probably deserves what they get. I'm not sure it's right to warn them.

Unfortunately, it's pretty clear he's not the right kind of asshole to do well here, so I think I'm going to make him the first ban for this thread.

I did tell you that if you didn't want people posting here I can just stop them all myself :/
You only need to ask.

I know how we can settle this, how about a game of Brikwars?

Oh, before I go I'll give you one last little nugget of information about what exactly it was that provoked Ross to leave our board that you can add to your judgement of him/us, as he didn't actually tell you. You've got one side of the story so far (his) and he didn't actually tell you what happened, just said that we are all elitist dicks. So here is what I discerned from deleting his secret clubhouse forum and reading the topic in which the event leading to his quitting transpired.
Look out folks! This could get long!

Someone on PW created a new game idea called "Global Picture Wars" where they would draw a big world map and different territories and several groups would fight over control of the planet. Some groups did not want Ross so he made his own. Each board has its own private passworded forum, which is completely pointless because it's not like strategy is even slightly relevant to PW, and Ross smartly declined to give this password to either moderator.
This board contained three topics, two of them ended up being five posts long and the third four whole pages of complete shit that coudln't be moderated because Ross didn't tell us the password, and then didn't PM us asking for help on. Let me just repeat that; this was stuff that it was impossible for the staff to see and then HE DIDN'T TELL THE STAFF IT WAS HAPPENING.

Someone he let into his forum gave the password away to various other members, as the boards are pointless anyway quite a few people knew the passwords to all of them and nobody is actually doing anything important in their secret clubhouse sections anyway so nobody except Ross actually cared.
One of Ross's group members posted in this topic saying:

Hello All! Glad to be with you guys, if GPW was a dickishness fight, you guys would lose majorly. <_< that's a good thing.

Two people from other groups then replied by saying "insulting people behind people's backs isn't very nice."
Lizzrd then posted and said "you guys aren't very good at this."
Here is Ross's reply:

This.

SUCKS.

GET. OUT.

Someone then informed him that pretty much everyone already knew all the passwords (though nobody thought of telling the moderators what they were) and so Ross decided to say this:

Mods read PMs. Mod posted, floodgates broke. Guys, please don't tell non-RCO members the password.

Now you may not be aware of this but moderators actually can't read your PMs. Neither can admins. They are called PMs because they are private, nobody can read them except you and the recipient. So he was blaming people that couldn't even read the board and are responsible for stamping out trolling for trolling him. Damn Ross, what did I ever do to you? I quite liked you ):

Nothing much happens for two whole pages after that, except for everyone laughing at Ross because mods can't read PMs and someone saying "this guy roark did it" based on no evidence and Ross believing him for a while until everyone laughs at him for believing that.
Nothing particularly insulting is said during this time, people just trick Ross into making a fool of himself.
In fact apart from lizzrd saying "you all suck at spriting" we are now on the third page of four and no insults have been thrown at all.
Then we reach this post:

I'm sorry ross, I forgot to not say bad things to the kid with the special needs.

Then another page passes and someone posts a picture of a kid wearing a dunce hat with the words "Ross_Varn" printed at the bottom.
This is literally the only vaguely insulting thing said to Ross during the entire four pages of travesty.
This provokes him to post this stunning comeback "

" and then go to our main forum and post this leaving message. This message was the first sign the moderators recieved that anything was wrong.

Yeah.

The whole point of the RCO was to have something where the new guys could develop without constantly being flamed by those guys who have been around for longer than them and consider themselves better, to the point of which their motto is apparently new people must die.

That experiment has apparently failed, since even though I could stick this out until you all get bored with it, I simply do not want to.

Picture Wars was an awesome idea, mates.

It's just that you few idiots ruin it for those who want to begin.

Ownership of the RCO passes on to whichever member wants it. I'm formally requesting Jager or Metal Chao to ban me so I won't be tempted to come back.

I'm out. Not that I had much here in the first place- but I'm out.

Remember this next time someone who wants to have fun comes here. And remember- I don't have in in for everyone who's been around the block a few times, just those royal faggots who act like it's suposed to mean something. You know who you are.

This is the internet.

Grow the fuck up.

To the rest of those who considered me to be their friend- thanks for the ride...
-Ross Varn, Brikwarrior

And that's the whole story!
Thanks for your time! Join my message board!
