Default Re: PBW Down? - Back up!

I have to agree with DavidG if your not looking for a flame quit flaming you replied 3 or 4 times w/o anyone in between there a few Messages ago and I think that regardless of what you say flaming lis exactly what your aiming at...thats all im gonna say cause i dont think any public forum is the place destructive flaming or its reciprocal remarks (hypocrit alert)I will not respond to you anymore in the hopes that letting you have the Last word will content you.

I agree with you. I played PBEM before PBW. And when I ran a game at PBW (and it was down), I ran the turn manually at home and mailed them.

I suggested to the owners of the games I am in that they could be run manually but no one seems to have wanted to.

And I don't play against the AI. That ended long ago when I discovered PBW games and PBEM games.

That's basically what I mean. It take a sizable lack of consideration. Really, what's the difference between uploading to a server and sending an email?

This makes sense...

Again, you need to place yourself in someone else's shoes Gyphon. You continue to discuss lazy hosts and not the players themselves. Manually processing turns is a lot of extra work for game hosts that were hosting games on PBW (which involved zero work to process turns) because it took no time.

Your "arguments" are trying to tell us that your post meant one thing, and one thing only. This is what is wrong. You may have meant one thing, but what you said is not quite what you meant to say. Slinging insults is no basis for an argument, and that is nearly all that you have done here.

Changing your name to "staying as long as i want" is just childish obstinance i shouldn't be saying anything if i truly want you to have the Last word and leave but im still legally a minor so i figure i can afford a small amount of childish obstinance what im saying here is this i just updated my star trek mod and fully intend to go play it right now but hereby give my full support to Imperator Fyron and DavidG and encourage you to grow up and go do what you did when you weren't "concerned with PBW"-namely get out of our up til now friendly forum
