Aircraftkiller | How can it be lag when it's a single player game? Grasping at straws again, I see...
|
Probably the same way that it can be lag in RenAlert when the coil shoots where you were 6 second later..
You're becoming so anal retentive, that you can't even spot sarcasm when it slaps you in the face... so sad...

Aircraftkiller | I know it's sarcasm, that doesn't make it funny or witty... or whatever you were trying to accomplish.
|
Well of course it's not funny to YOU, you're the one that was being made fun of.. duh.

If you're making fun of Aircraftkiller, why did you go and insult me?

Then FINALLY, will you please do something about it?
You are the owner of these forums, and have the SOLE RESPONSIBILITY of managing them. What you say goes.
Ack is the same ol' Ack. Like MSGTPAIN has said, PMs don't work with him. He is the sort of person that wants to be punished in private, because to him, then it never happened.
He needs to be held accountable to the rules that everyone else is.
If he can't handle being stopped in his tracks in public by you a friend, then he is not truely your friend. He is only using you for his own selfish reasons.
I have been in many situations where I was in command of many friends. I simply told them, "please do not put me into a situation to do my job, a friend would not take their relationship with me as an advantage to get away with things that others wouldn't." What this means is you are accountable to the public here. Many "well known members," some that I didn't get along with to well back on the old forums but do now, are saying the same thing, SOMETHING NEEDS TO BE DONE.
Simply put, Ack should not be in a position of power- he is as long as he is a moderator (even if only one forum). When he has a tantrum and does what he does best, he is bringing discredit to you and therefore you are losing respect.
Ack should be punished the same way any other person on these boards would be for pulling the crap he gets aways with.
Ack is talented I'll give you that. But only God knows how many more people with talent he has chased away. Ack is not the only person with exclusive access to the ability to make maps. I've seen many more people that I personally have felt had a lot more talent. But did they stick around long? NO and the reason being Ack's continal attacks on them. Now at the time, yes Acks "current" maps were better than what was released, but comparing their first works to his, the difference was easy to see. Example, Siege by Pink Bunny, released early in Renegade, timeframe near the release of River Raid. Is there a difference? Pley them and be honest.
The community needs more than just 1 mapper. If there is anyone that is preventing that, then that 1 person should be removed as a clog is removed from a drain. If the clog isn't removed you just get a whole lot of backed up sewage! And, we see that already in the way newcomers are treated by him.
Don't take my word for it, take the word of someone that you have known and respected for a long time by what I know, MsgtPain. I've seen others like K9 and Kirby also trying to set things straight with Ack, but to no avail.
I have not posted much, but I frequent these boards often and have seen the same old crap from him that I did in the old boards. Fortuneately now, there is someone that can take action unlike it seemed Westwood would.
Thanks for your time.

OMG it's AndrewCow!
I don't feel that ACK deserves a public flogging, but I have removed him as moderator on the mod forums for the time being.
I'm the bawss.
