[QUOTE=Pocket Medic;39721189]I couldn't care less about the 'negative comments from others'. I'm voicing my opinions and reading about TF2. If you've got a problem, then you can just do what good ol' Tomza's doing. If you want fewer argumentative posts here, then one contribution would be not responding to mine. Tomza's not, and that's why he's got the right idea.[/QUOTE] I admit I got a list of things people shouldn't post about as well, and I actively enforce it, at least sometimes, although not here. I have to agree with you that posting to know what's going on in thread is pretty lazy. Just read the thread yourself. Also, if you don't want to start arguments, please don't say provoking things. I don't say this as an insult, but as a mere fact. You're like myself. You like to start shit.
[QUOTE=Jordax;39721133]Right. Now on the topic of some actual TF2, what underrated weapons do you lot use instead of the normal butter and bread you see the other players carrying all the time? I personally prefer the Loch-N-Load above the normal Grenade Launcher, for example, the thing is a complete beast once you've learned to aim decently with it.[/QUOTE] I used to only use the LnL whenever I went Demo back in the days, now I cant aim at all with it because i've been using the Grenade Launcher too much.
[QUOTE=Mario6493;39721193]I suddenly got an idea on how to nerf the Axtinguisher in a good way: It still crits burning players, but puts off the fire on hit, so you can't chain crit attacks. Heck, it would even make the name make more sense. EDIT: Pagekinguisher![/QUOTE] It'd still let the pyro 1-hit kill anything that's not overhealed or a heavy. I'd say make it minicrit.
[QUOTE=Hatley;39721303]It'd still let the pyro 1-hit kill anything that's not overhealed or a heavy. I'd say make it minicrit.[/QUOTE] Then there's close to no reason to not use it with any Flamethrower that's not the Degreaser.
[QUOTE=Pocket Medic;39721049]I'm never not like this. I'm a snarky pile of shit that occasionally cracks a joke. That particular comment just happened to be about TF2, in the theme of this thread. So that was nice.[/QUOTE] I dunno about that Pocket, unlike the rest of the thread I don't mind your aggressive means of trying to keep the thread on topic (though not to say I think it's the best way to go about things, nor do I think getting this thread to stay on topic is a thing that is possible), but you do -seem- distinctly different from when you were more of a regular. Maybe we were all more on topic back then (??? don't think so), but you definitely seemed friendlier when tf2 was your main interest as opposed to DOTA 2. I seem to remember your style being more of a 'can we please talk about tf2 you bunch of clowns' as opposed to a 'fuck you post about tf2'.
I'm sorta worried that if I start leaning more to DOTA 2, will I eventually become more grumpy and irritable myself? The genre seems to have such an effect on people, it's a really weird blight upon a really fun game.
I remember when Seiteki used to be here and while it was offtopic, it wasn't all that much. That was when it was alot of fun to come here. Given I do my share of off-topic posting, it's mainly because my friends are here and I don't play TF2 at all anymore. if I did I might have more relevant things to say, but now I don't I can't really keep up to date with what's happening. I don't play TF2 because I was addicted to it. I'd play hours at a time but I wasn't really there, just going through the motions.

[QUOTE=Dubious George;39721453]people do change you know not for the worst either in this case maybe[/QUOTE] of course, I was just saying that I don't think Pocket is the same as he was some time ago, as I interpreted what Pocket said as him saying he was the same
[QUOTE=Mr. Magoolachub;39721467]of course, I was just saying that I don't think Pocket is the same as he was some time ago, as I interpreted what Pocket said as him saying he was the same[/QUOTE] mmm yeah fair enough. tbh I think the whole argument is silly. on one side you've got all these dudes who are so very close and lovey-dovey and are all into being nice and giving/raffling, and yet criticized for not being what once was sends you into this spiral of shitpost aggression. and pocket; dayum gurl you could at least use a little more tact. i don't really know your aim or goal with what you want or why you post here so I can't really say exactly [i]what[/i] your point is that you're trying to prove, but there's gotta be a better way that doesn't provoke people into making pointless posts like "X is on your ignore list" or "gosh go away we don't talk about tf2 here that's so mainstream".

Degreaser + Axe is useless against other pyros considering degreaser is weaker and Pyros can't get on fire, the only way to counter pyros puff n' stinging is to use a shotgun as your main damage output against other pyros. I real nerf for axetinguisher would probably be slower fire rate, or upon activation, user moves X% slower

I can definitely see her set of mind, as I have that same mentality at times, and I actually somewhat admire that. However, I realize that it usually gets you nowhere and that Pocket should probably stop trying to provoke and get the thread to behave in her favor. Goddamn I'm such a flip-flopper. I used to hate Pocket.
I believe the point is the offtopic posting is too much. I thought it was pretty obvious that was what is wrong.
There's a good reason I chose "Shit Post" as the thread icon.
[QUOTE=Tomo Takino;39721532]I believe the point is the offtopic posting is too much. I thought it was pretty obvious that was what is wrong.[/QUOTE] I think it's less about the reason, and more about why she does it if she doesn't post anymore. My guess is that she's probably prejudiced against off-topic posters, and wants to make herself feel better by condescending them. Once again I don't say this in an insulting way, but that's just my probably-wrong theory, based on my own experiences.

[QUOTE=Dubious George;39721551]don't worry about flip-flopping, no matter what i still don't like you[/QUOTE] Why? Are you trying to provoke me?
This thread suddenly got all psychological. Whatever the reasoning behind it is, just lurking and rating dumb does nothing but annoy the people doing it. Which you kind of want to avoid doing if you want them to stop. The thread won't go back to how it used to be, that much is obvious. But there has been a fair bit of TF2 discussion lately so it's lightening up a bit.
[QUOTE=elevate;39721559]Why? Are you trying to provoke me?[/QUOTE] nah i just don't like you.
hats
[QUOTE=Dubious George;39721573]nah i just don't like you.[/QUOTE] Perhaps you could keep that to yourself then? And maybe explain why while you're at it.
[QUOTE=elevate;39721582]Perhaps you could keep that to yourself then? And maybe explain why while you're at it.[/QUOTE] yeah I mean you're randomly and overly aggressive to people i've seen in the thread, you don't seem like a nice person and I don't really agree with you whenever i see your posts. also when i was wondering who you were when i saw you post here i checked your steam profile and you had a picture of a pinkie pie doll, a box of tissues and some vaseline or some shit up there publicly, which is kinda disgusting. also you seem really full of yourself while also being really insecure. That's just how I see you and what you post in this thread dude.

I try to keep that shit out of the spotlight now. *coughs* You're also right in that I'm not a really nice person, then again, neither is Pocket, yet you seem to like her. I do not get it. I kinda picked up that aggressive behavior after seeing so many others on Facepunch, including yourself, use it. Hostility seems to be a way of life on Facepunch. As for the insecurity, it helps me feel more like a normal person even though I'm far from one. I'm trying to work on improving my life and normalizing myself. I'm just experimenting and trying to find my identity I guess, but now I feel embarrassed and ashamed of myself.

[QUOTE=Dubious George;39721674]just gotta be confident without being arrogant. or overly assertive/lording yourself around. you'll work it out eventually.[/QUOTE] Thanks, man. I'll definitely keep this in mind and try to better myself, which I've slowly already been doing, especially for your sake. It still makes me feel awful to know that someone has a negative opinion of me.

I really should've said all this in PM's, for a variety of reasons, but oh well.
Shhh.
hey at least we're not talking about tf2
Hey guys, it's time for a pop quiz! [B]Name one thing more broken than Puff and Sting. Best answer gets an uncraftable Honcho's Headgear.[/B]
