N/P.
If anything more senior, like an actual engineer role, comes up I'll put the question to you again.

[FaceAche]

That'd be great, thanks.

What on EARTH is going on lol....

I leave this thread for one day, ONE DAY, and look what happens...

FACEY, TELZY, BEHAVE YOURSELVES!

Early bed time for the both of you. Not joking this time either.

Shame it didn't turn out that way huh? Not sure why you even said 'Welcome' in the first place Viv; wouldn't simply saying “Look, just fuck off, okay” been a bit more honest and straight up?

Well, we know this is complete bullshit; you're still here.

No-one gets banned, they instead get belittled and ridiculed after virtually every single post they make, to the point where they simply leave after realising that we're not this affable “knitting circle” of nice videogame enthusiasts, rather just a gang of holier-than-though elitist pricks.

Some of us anyway, but then, it's always the minority that fucks it up for the majority.

That's why i really like our little corner over here - BM is my Happy Place.

I'm sad that a number of these elitist douche-bags have found their way here. I'm also sad that most of us just sat idly by whilst this girl was totally ostracised from Buttonmasher. I've had Mods and Admins tell me to tone it down on occasion, when i've got out-of-hand, and I have abided. I wonder if they supported Zoe/DG in the same way, and told these guys who were basically just attacking her at every opportunity to also tone it down?

It certainly ain't my happy place any-more. Now it's becoming just another place on the internet which I visit, to keep in touch with the decent guys on this forum, but otherwise spout vitriol, hatred and other general ugliness about whatever the fuck I feel like. Hey, if you can't beat 'em, join 'em.

A hit with the Buttonmasher ladies since 08-07-2008!!

Lovely. I'm sure she felt ever so welcome here. Not sure why you needed to post that twice either, but whatever.

At least this was civil. Uncalled for, and really just kinda mean, but civil.



Don't agree with my sentiments in this post? I'm sweet with that – your opinion is ultimately worth what I pay for it, and quite frankly, I don't give a fuck what anyone says anyway.

[Tel Prydain]

What the heck, Face?
Where did this come from?

[FaceAche]

Oh just the ugly way in which Zoe/DG has been treated by a few of the guys recently. She's gone now, and from what i can gather isn't coming back. It seems they are using their belief that she is ignorant, uninformed and small-minded as reason to ostracise her from the BM community. That's all.

Don't worry Tel, these guys are more than okay to 'dish it out' so i'd say it's safe to assume that they are also man enough to 'take it'.

[Newsboy]

Yeap, pretty disappointing with how it went down.

[morehu]

Zoes a big girl and knows what she's doin. She pushes these guys buttons and they react. Its a bit like a cat chillin on a fence watching the dogs bark

That being said I do agree that the way people have been behaving in response is pretty shit. Behave like adults guys. If you dont like something shes said ignore the post and move on

[Vivasanti]

Hi late to the party here, just as you did in the for sale thread faceache, you have it wrong - again.

When i said , OMG guys, please get rid of this one.

It was a comment to close/lock/remove the thread that was getting out of control, not for DG to go away, she may have some silly opinions etc, but it is a discussion forum after all.

Once again jumping the gun and speculating, you have made yourself look like a complete
asshat as you did a few weeks back (for me anyways)

People who have played with me online know im a nice person and quite quiet.

i hope none of this offends anyone.

Thanks

Nick

QFT. I just looked in the Mars thread for the first time last night cause I am not really interested in it and read some of the posts. Now Face's post makes sense.

We have had some robust discussions before on this site but some of that was plain nasty.
