Topic: Popular AGAIN?! How about getting the community popular... here's how

ya know, I've been a registered user (and axious player) since 11-07-06, yeah for over two years!

I've posted recruitment emails all over the StarWars gaming community, hosted FS gamenights for clans I help manage, etc... jump on to populate servers when I can, joined the FS x-fire group, offered up TeamSpeak server hosting for those that prefer it to ventrillo, etc...

http://www.86you.net/86U/news.php

I have pretty thick skin, and around here you need it.  You know why?  Ya got pretentious admins like Gwynzer (who tho helpful) can be a real smurf abuser!

Every time I play, or post to try and help YOU (yeah you admin Gwynzer) either make me feel like a douche for trying to help or flat out pose as a know-it-all goober.  You act like YOUR 12years OLD!

So, the reason the community may not be getting popular (even though I LOVE the mod and really enjoy playing) - when you got a bossy, frag-meister like Gwynzer killing your pie and making you feel stupid - I doubt most would come back.

The only reason I'm still playing is because it's excellent work, a fun game and 80% of the time I play (non-community nights) Gwynzer isn't there to ruin it.

My suggestion is that YOU Gwynzer specifically take a chill pill (and a reality check) and stop being such a rude, pretentious know it all that makes people that play this mod feel like it's by your great kindness you allow us to play.

*stepping off soap-box

It'll be interesting to see if I'm banned and/or my thread is totally deleted.  I hope Gwynzer has the bullocks to let it stand and let's see what everyone else has to say...

As for the 15+ players I've tried to introduce to this mod... ZERO return because of their unpleasant experiences with the "more advanced" players in the server...

peace out - hope to still see you on the battlefield.

Gwynzer has repeatedly been in trouble before for bad behaviour. This is nothing new.

I'm not a dev, though, so the matter is beyond my control.

Oh, and this is a matter you're probably far better off handling by PM and e-mail.

We've had a few discussions about clan stacking and how its negatively affecting the newer players.

Woah daddyo, I think it's you who should take the chill pill. As far as I could tell this rant was caused by Gwynzer complaining about your pointless commandering on the server when there's no need for it. I agree with him on that. Sure he overdid it but that was just frustration. I haven't seen any attacking towards you on the forum so I don't see what all the fuss is about.

And yeah, you could've just talked about this with him privately without making a huge scene. Gwynzer is definitely not one to attack others and is IMO well behaved, especially in the client support subforum.

SamZi, don't be a party-pooper. Sit back and enjoy the drama!
