Yes, I can relate to this. We must guard against the insidious evil within ourselves, and be kind and considerate even when it i snot always easy.

>>This is why it feels so good. E.g. dictators like Stalin or Hitler usually blamed and executed their generals for their own mistakes.<<

A good and valid analogy. Couldn't have put it better myself.

>>It is much more painful to take responsibility for a mistake and admit to yourself: "I can not pay attention when needed. I can not control my anxiety. I can not clearly think when excited. I need someone else like forum members or admins to tell me what to do because I can not make responsible decisions myself. I am not a grown up man yet."<<

Absolutely.

>>No one can "get" you to purchase a game, upgrade a PC or download a file from internet. It is always you who make a bad decision unless you have a gun pointed at your head when you make it. Children do not make their own decisions of cause as adults make them for them. Then most of children grow up and learn to take responsibility. <<

Yes.

I sense a new solidarity in this forum, and that can only be a good thing for the future. Long may it continue.

@Ataros

Very well said!!!!

@Falstaff

I'm afraid about your change of coat, from evil critisizer to fanboi in just one post.
I hope you'll find a intermediate setting .

I dont think things could continue the way they were, on this forum or elsewhere. A more positive mindset is much needed.

Let us not lock the gate after the horse has bolted. It must keep its head above water and not be thrown out with either the baby or the bathwater. Then the horse can go the extra mile into clear blue water.

‘Fair dinkum’, as we say in Russia

Or in France…’Pork Salut’….

Did you talk to them over PM?

Pray tell how you came to such a stunningly confident conclusion.

Or did you just call for blood on instinct and suspicion like is so often the case with the masses?

So did I, but at least in Pencon's case he PM'd me in a confused manner after my accusatory comments in the patch thread he bumped and only after several PM's realised that he'd installed the wrong patch by mistake. That's a long way to carry through a deception! I'm satisfied it was a mistake, personally.

Do you really think the fake B6 post was an accident?

you have your "personal opinion"... others have theirs.



I've been around forums of differing natures for quite a while now and have seen some really scary tricks and methodologies, as well as quite a few nice things

To be honest I can't believe the amount of people that are sticking up for this stupid berk and his like!

IMO you are no better and just as sad.

I'm one of the people on here that isn't a prolific poster mainly because there are far too many bigoted loud mouthed 'know it alls' on here for me to be bothered getting into any arguments or even sensible discussion with. I'm also someone that has handed out a fair amount of polite stick to the Devs (or whoever is responsible) not only for the poor state of CloD but also for their poor handling, lack of communication, bull, and delaying tactics where releasing of the new patch is concerned.

I'm getting on a bit now (Victor Meldrew anyone ), maybe that's why I'm unable to comprehend anything being funny or clever about dashing peoples hopes where the release of the patch is concerned (I don't get alternative comedy either). Those that do are actively encouraging more of the same behaviour which in my opinion is not good for this forum or the current shambolic state of the community.

Someone earlier stated that people like me should get out more...Wrong! Personally, I get out plenty. It's the dick heads that can find nothing better to do than concocting this sort of stuff with the sole intention to frustrate and piss others off, that need to find some sort of life.

I feel sorry for the sad baskets! (Not!)
