1st quote: The final team was decided by Geert and Batt. It is not up to you to declare if we had players or not. Also, the fact that you know certain specific insides of the n-ice community but you start posting them publicly is something that worries me. Way more then your accusation of arogance because of the frustration caused my decision from last evening.
I referred to the first tournament. There was a news post that said a player had to jump in as substitute at the last moment. So maybe you are right that it is not up to me to declare that. You already did that yourself
in the news section. That still does not justify you belittling the players by asking them not to transform things into a drama like they are children that will start yelling and screaming if they are not allowed to play along. What specifics do I know that I start posting publicly? All the quotes I pasted here from you (except that 2 irc logs) are from the forum, so I really do not know what you are talking about. The accusation of arrogance is way older than last night, don't you worry. Just note the date of this post:
The reason I get irritated with you (note irritated, not aggressive) is your condescending tone, and tendency to put the blame on others or other circumstances.
Also I am not frustrated with you banning me form the #openttd.chat channel. I am still able to speak to the people that want to communicate with me.
2nd quote: Kwissy was banned for cheating. Turning from such an action to a normal player and more importantly to someone who helps the n-ice community took a while...but I`m glad that he did it. After the ban he had a period when he insisted to change the money transfer several times. I can justify my answer to Kwissy if he requests it, or probably to any other player, but not to you. I simply do not consider that you deserve a justification after your recent behaviour. Also, asking me 7-8 times for something of which I already said I do not agree, kinda seems pointless, don`t you agree?
Thank you for proving my point that it is ok for you to offend other people but not the other way arround. No justification needed, I did not ask for it.
3rd quote makes absolutely no sense. You quoted a post from a different topic of the forum and placed it in a board where a player accused Kwissy of cheating the 2nd time. I researched and found no evidence that Kwissy would have done such a thing.
That is funny because that is your own post
http://www.n-ice.org/openttd/forum/index.php?topic=483.msg2842#msg2842 (at the bottom of your post if you still cannot find it)
The reason why I quoted this is that in your words others have no excuse to be aggressive but you do.
4th quote refers again to something from another topic: You consider that you`re making a point quoting my answers from my replies in all the forum?
Or perhaps we have someone with a new obsession ? Since from what I remember, the replies that you posted are from 2-3 different topics, I can only think that you researched all of them?
No I consider that if you do something yourself you can expect the same kind of response. There are quite a few topics out there that are full of logs and other 'evidence' that you posted to prove what is wrong with their behavior. I return you the favor by doing the same to you. Does not feel nice getting confronted with your own words does it? I only remind you to the fact that you tell other players that there is no excuse for aggressive behavior but fail to apply that yourself.
6th quote: not even worth bothering answering? Kwissy cheated once for which we still have the proof, then that topic was referring to another player complaining about him? Did you think about that? Or again, frustration problem?
Quite telling that you do not find it worth bothering to answer to a post in which you unjustly accuse a player of lying...And no this was not in a topic where a player complained about him. This was from a topic where he made a good suggestion and you resisted it in every way you could only to have it implemented in the end anyway.
7th quote: yes, I consider I have the right to be angry while you don`t. You want to know why? Because I have the obligation to follow the n-ice protocols even in the case of annoying people like you. People who track the whole forum in order to try to make an interesting debate about somebody.
You want to know why again? I have never bothered you on IRC. About you bothering me could we say the same thing?
Really mate, I do not track the whole forum just to make a debate. I posted my support for a suggestion that I thought was a good one for the community. From that you somehow feel the need to get aggressive. The reason this whole thread was started was because you unjustly threatened me with a ban. Never bothered me on IRC? Are you sure? I would hate to get the logs but...
About me bothering you, depends what you consider bothering...
You used the fact that I did not reply to your 2 page reply as a reason to display certain behavior towards me, yet when I do answer you, you skillfully ignore it by only replying to the last post and try to shoot holes in it. Luckily you have grown past the point of simply removing posts that you do not like. Thumbs up for that.
8th quote : The funny quotes section is made to post quotes in a friendly ironic way. I see nothing friendly between me and you. Also, your obsession for always warning and interfering in the fun of 2 players worries me.... The same as quoting only a part of the post in order to try to make a point.
If you look at that quote I see nothing friendly between those players. If you look at the log you posted before that it is even more clear. I can almost guarantee you that cobra jj was not enjoying the conversation but simply did not want to call an admin. I did not say that you should have warned him, I merely pointed out that posting it there it is a bit strange to say the least. You paste a clearly insulting log in the funny quotes forum while the rules state that insulting people is not allowed. I am not the only one that thinks admins should be specifically aware of rules and try not to get themselves in borderline situations!
It wasn`t spam.
I don't know what your definition of spam is but pasting a reply 12 times certainly fits my definition...
However, when it comes to your post....you did out of.....I don`t even know what it was. You felt the need to show me that you can repeat replies, BUT WITHOUT A REASON...which is spamming. Combined with flashing my name without a reason and your recent behaviour of bothering most of the people on the channel, it resulted in my telling you that you need a break from that channel.
You indeed miss the point. The point is that you do not judge your own actions the same way you do to others. You keep denying that you were spamming while I honestly don't know what else pasting a line 12 times could be called. My recent behavior of bothering most of the people?? I have not had any complaints about myself except form you. If any other people have a problem with me they have not told me so in any way.
After all the _______ justifications that you made write here AGAIN, even if I told them to you last evening, I can only concur that my judging of your behaviour was correct. I`m pretty sure you can understand the difference between 15 replies(more or less, I didn`t count them) WITH A REASON: designed to show anger because you were becoming very annoying and pretending not to see my answer and the 6 replies WITHOUT A REASON and posted only to show the muscles...or I have no idea why.
I cannot make any sense out of what you are saying here... sorry I simply do not understand. Maybe try some translator software?
Now my warning to you. Either you cut it out and take that break, or I will enforce the break on you. Bothering me is included.
[2014-01-28 01:14:55] <Andreas> hi 4lex, I did not realise you wanted an answer to that posts, but if you would like it, I am more than happy to answer
Note the fact that I wrote your name as 4lex in order not to disturb you if you were busy. If you do not want me to answer, you should not give me not answering as a reason not to reply to me in a normal way. As stated a few post back, the reason for resurrecting this topic is you saying you expected an answer.
As a justification to you: Your behaviour recently has been annoying for the people on the channel. It appears to me that you have got a lot of free time. Well, NOT EVERYBODY has free time to spend it answering your questions. Also, posting oppinions and news about OpenTTD 1.4.0 is not something of interest since we haven`t switched to that. But yet you feel very good by seeing that most of the people do not know it, but you do.
So my conclusion is very simple: You absolutely need a break from that channel. I trully hope you won`t prove that it should be a permanent break.
Now you just start ranting and looking for extra reasons for banning me where they are not. I did not ask questions there that I demanded an answer for. Discussing the fact that in your pov the OTTD dev's don't attempt to increase realism is also not something of interes for n-ice yet you felt the need to do that. A discussion about maglev being a viable alternative to air and rail travel is also not in the interest of n-ice but yet you start it... I honestly do not see what I did wrong in that respect. And lastly where do you get the impression that I feel good about knowing the features of the current trunk?? As I said before this seems like a sorry attempt to justify your actions towards me. There is no need for your justification. I do not agree with you, but I also will not appeal to your decision because it is not worth it to me. That means that there is no need to try so hard to make your case.
Note that in this whole reply there is no question except for the one where you assume that I somehow feel good about myself for knowing the game. There are only answers to your accusations/replies so don't even try to turn this reply into a reason to tell me I need a break and that I bother people.P.s. Now that I read that part about you thinking that I feel very good, I cant help but wonder, has this quote got something to do with that idea?:
Each player has a different knowledge of the game, and then we got Andreas He had the time to gain experience so he has a whole different understanding of the game.
(not a question, just a thought that crossed my mind...)
