The Crystal Ball 2

[bongodriver]

Just sayin'

That just about sums up all your contributions

Well cooked...fries with that?

So youre saying my goose is cooked?.....as to suggest my time has run out and great peril is about to befall me, by your hand?

Yes, of course, but why conflate that with genuine critcism?

Doesn't happen

Because you can grandstand and do the sword-of-righteousness routine? Because you can just lump everyone in together and make out it's all rubbish?

Wow and you really can't see the hypocrisy in that statement?
You really can't quite believe that some people are genuinely annoyed by the constant 'entitlement junkie' culture breeding here, and are automatically categorised as 'fanboi trolls' should they let it be known.

Well, yes, you can. But one runs the risk of looking like an idiot in the process.

You illustrate this fact very well

If you are going to ahve the last word, it helps to have a first word i.e. something to say...not just countering every time for it's own sake. Just sayin'

I remember your first words on this forum well, it started with hypocrisy and has continued since.

Oh get a grip, real drama queeny stuff....never mind the anachronisms (hints of David Starkey?)

It happens all the time. You just don't like it.

No. Holier-than-thou pirouetting. People are criticising a game, not complaining that they haven't ascending to heaven.

Well then I think you need to move on, not least because you're probably remembering my 'recent' re-joining. I was a member (albeit quiet) for years before. But don't get too worked about it. Your own posts have always struck me as high-handed and rather malevolent, which fits right in with the most of the other more acerbic critic-baiters. Plus ca change.

Get a grip? You are the one who started the goose cooking, go figure some guy who continuously speaks as if reciting Shakespeare (and is called Fallstaff to boot) is calling me a drama queen.

>>(genuine critcism) Doesn't happen<<

It happens all the time. You just don't like it.

Oh dear...youre not so smart are you? when quoting someone it is somewhat invalidated when the text you quote is ammended by your hand.

No. Holier-than-thou pirouetting. People are criticising a game, not complaining that they haven't ascending to heaven.

Oh lord have mercy......

Moving on...now theres a thought, if only more people could do that.

So you re-joined only so you could ask to be removed? clearly your thought processes are.......well just bizare.

Bongo...'smart' and 'smarter' seem to be recurring themes in your posts. As if you're trying to one-up all the time. Something else you would appear to have in common with Carguy, Hayward, Aces, Robtek etc. It is about appearances, not reality i.e. trying to appear to defeat the critics. But once again, the product defeats you, not the complaints.

And this is what, ultimately, it boils down to, perhaps. Deferred frustration - you and others are probably not playing the game as much as you would like (for the same reasons as the rest of us) and probably turning your mis-placed anger on the critics instead of the devs, in the mistaken belief you're clinging to higher ground, and performing a useful function. In truth, you and your sort are doing neither.

Be as wise as you like - the game is still ****ed (that's porked, to go with your cooked goose)

Check you on revisions! never mind I have let countless of your spelling/syntax/grammar errors go on the grounds that they can keep eachother company if nothing else

It's Falstaff btw, you may want to start practising your puns round about now....

And check you...'befallen' indeed...

Is that before or after 'crestfallen'?

I'll give it a rest now. I suggest you do the same. The odds say you probably can't resist a reply. We'll see.

Ah yes...this old chestnut, because I'm here I'm not playing the game, one of the other favourite tools in the inventory.

grammar and spelling Nazi....very endearing, having failed to counter with a cohesive reply you resort to this, I may have a form of dislexia....did you consider that?

It's Falstaff btw, you may want to start practising your puns round about now....

whats an extra 'l' between friends

And check you...'befallen' indeed...

you have a problem with my use of the word 'befall'?

Is that before or after 'crestfallen'?

Why are you asking me?

I'll give it a rest now. I suggest you do the same. The odds say you probably can't resist a reply. We'll see.

But of course I will reply, your Jedi mind tricks won't work on me, your sentence should have stopped at 'I'll give it a rest now'

I really hope the silence means the dev team is loading the patch. If not, I can't imagine with all the anticipation they are just sitting in their bunker and won't be giving us anything.

I can

[ACE-OF-ACES]

Dammed if you do dammed if you don't

But saying nothing can be worse than saying something

Even if it is as short as to say 'nothing new to report'

Because if you don't say something the whiners will fill in the 'void' with their imaginations and baseless unfounded speculations.

[Gourmand]

yes, you can !

Looks bad, it's 7:40 pm in Russia.

I don't give up yet
