Look man evyryone knows he cheated. It's not debateable. He admits it. You succeeded.

He's not expressing ill will toward the community. There's no conspiracy.

Let it go.

Try as I might, I just couldn't let that go.
"Goodbye and good riddance" is ill will in any language.

Aww come on. It could be crankiness, exasperation or any number of things instead.

So you are saying his post about his "trusted friends" was pure bull****? As I said myself, it is always a possibility. It may be even likely. But it is also quite possible than it was not. How can you possibly be so sure?

Besides his post did not sound as if he has "no ill will toward community", as you put it. On the opposite, parts like "I'll just take my lumps and leave", "Good bye, and good riddance" and others sound as if he is bitter. As I suggested, please reread his post and think about it before continuing to argue.

Neither you, me, or anybody else have any way of knowing if it is true or not. It may very well be pure bullsit on his part. But I don't think that we should hide our heads in the sand, and hope for the best.

And please, stop saying "let it go" for god's sake. I already did. At this point I could not care less about Norfleet, he is busted and gone. My only concern is the security of the game, as I made clear in this post and in my other Posts. So naturally when Norf reappers and tell us that he have shared his "secret" with few of his "trusted friends", and tells them not to tell it to anybody else, while saying "Good riddance" to Dom2 community, it does not sound very comfortable, don't you agree?

actually, all he said was that he only told his side of the story to a few people. and now, thanks to your jumping all over that little post of his, he certainly isnt going to tell the rest of us his most likely interesting but truthless story.

I think that was certain all along. The only point of implying the existence of an explanation was to effectively protest his innocence. No need to actually create a story and share it with anybody.

Yeah, yeah, because I do *SO* value your support. Who the heck are you? I don't know you! Alas, the story is far less interesting, and whether it is truthless or not, I'm not going to throw to you jackals to pick at. And jumping or not, I rather expected somebody would want to jump on anything I write. Of course, you're not my friend. You're not demonstrating you ARE my friend.

Storm, I have *ALWAYS* been bitter. You, of all people, should know that. I have been actively bitter for longer than you have been alive. At this point, I am sufficiently bitter as to be considered inedible.

Hammer, nail, head. This is precisely the kind of thing I'm not going to miss. Good riddance indeed. If I wanted to express more ill-will, I'd have thought of more colorful way to curse you, like "May the offspring of a thousand fleas infest your camels.". Actually, that's a pretty good idea, now that I think of it. What do you think, Zombie, should I wish for some more ill-will on people?

Default Bye Norfleet

Wow, I'm gone from the forum for a few days playing Doom 3, and all hell breaks loose!

I don't condone cheating in MP (and I can't think of any reasonable/likely alternate explanation), but I still feel obligated to say thanks to Norfleet for his very many helpful Posts here on this forum, particularly those in response to my own (sometimes lengthy) series of detailed questions, from which I've learned a lot about the game.

LOL. He specificaly said in his post that he is not going to share his "story" with us, and will prohibit his "friends" from doing so. But if you really believe it exist, you can always send him PM and ask him to tell it to you.

Alright I think there has been enough petty childishness (emphasis on petty).

If I have to hear about Zapmeisters proclaiming adulation for the anti-Norfleet Jerry Falwell Church of Stormbinder, Stormbinder's obvious not-enough-attention-as-a-child complex or Cainehill's not-so-teen angst for purely the sake of each of them instead of for any good reason, I'll have to vomit.

Norfleet, do us a favor and stop dragging your corpse up off the ground after proclaiming yourself DOA. One or the other please, rest in peace or ooze from the grave to haunt your enemies with a vengance I don't really care which at this point, but this dying down, then rekindling is getting annoying and for me, tiring.
