Thread: A proposition to my fellow commandos

Hey guys, it's late and I am tired so I'll try and keep this short.

You guys are great. The last few weeks have been a hard time for us, trying to figure out what our roles are, where we belong, and what exactly is going to be happening to us with the upcoming patches and combat balancing. Many of us have done extensive research on TC with commando characters ( LordSeckmoth, maddoggs, Farky, and Im sure there are others ), and many of us who post here on a regular basis have been commandos for a very long time and know not only our profession, but others as well.


Now your probably wondering what Im getting at. Recently therehas been an increase of people coming to the commando forum and telling us many things, mostly negative ( except the pistoleer corrispondent,thanks for the love, and bringing down our community to a level I have never seen it at before. I have always taken pride in the fact that we as commandos are usually constructive, honest, and generally polite, willing to lend a hand to anybody that asks. But lately we ( including myself ) have been responding to these negative posts and dragging ourselves through the mud. This may even give the developers reason to say, " see, look at these commandos, pfft, why would I want to fix them."


So I am asking you to no longer reply to these negative posts. If we all just ignore them, they will have no one to argue with or base thier false accusations on. I know it will be hard to do. In fact I have completely stopped responding to any post that I am sure will only turn into a flame war. So, if you see fit, maybe you will follow suit. I wish everyone the best,

Omg, I'm going to have to agree with an imp from my server...However you are a fellow Master Commando, so that somewhat makes up for it

Tru datSkip - Can't wait to see what they'll change after they get donebalancing combat! I want a new weapon, but that most likelythatisn't going to happen. Oh well.



Constructive criticism at its worst!

I totally agree


When i first read this thread..i wasnt sure if i was going to post, then when i read the above (which was XxskywalkerxX's post if they flame dot was getting nerfed) i was simply outraged at some of the negativity..


One thing that caught my eye was that poster who had the engineering corp sig...if she/he/it was a master commando for 3 months before we got the hordes of band wagon jumpers getting 0/0/4/0...then why post that negative garbage? If you were acommando for that long..wouldn't you see that balancing the Flamer before fixing any of our weapons and class overall is a bad idea? With that in mind i really doubt that person even cared for commando or was one in the first place for that matter.


Its almost like we're surrounded...

Oh, Maddoggs, I think you rock. I dident want any of you commandos to take my initial post the wrong way. I'm not mad at any of you. I give you guys a lot of props for sticking with it and trying to defend us. I found myself being the one getting aggravated and ready to headbutt my monitor when I see some of these posts. Its at that point I realize that I am only making things worse by responding to them. We can only point out the facts so much and still our words fall on deaf ears. Thanks again guys for being there and not letting the light of our flame throwers die out.

"I found myself being the one getting aggravated and ready to headbutt my monitor when I see some of these posts."



As ive once seen on a post on Nmebase.net (Infantry Online site)..or was it Infantry-Sector.com? eh forgetting those communities..havent played infantry for over a year now..cant anyways due to connection for some reason..anyways...a better term rather than "responding to these ppl only makes things worse":

I'd definately have to agree... But there are times when some posts are so innane and unfactual, and I fear that someone up high might read and take them seriously that it's hard to conrol responses.


Is there a board ignore feature by any chance?

/agree


Thank you maddogs, Garvin, LordS, the pistoleer correspondent (sorry don't know the name off the top of my head), and everyone else who has fought to defend our profession. Keep up the excellent work!
