Destructoid is an open discussion community. You don't need to "audition" to post a comment - just speak your mind. We respect differing opinions on the site, so have at it. Be smart, funny, insightful, clueless, or cute -- but back it up with substance. Keep your cool, keep it fun. We only ask that you act respectfully and above all: don't be a troll and ruin it for everyone else. Don't bring down gamers or we'll, you know, gently shoot you in the face and stuff you into a flaming mailbox. Each comment is your opportuntity to make this community awesomer. Is that even a word?
Avoiding the banhammer only requires common sense: spamming, trolling, racism, NSFW stuff, and other forms of sucking will not be tolerated. If anyone is griefing please report abuse. Be good. Don't suck!
I don't see why posting a few blogs with my videos is pissing people off so much. Nor do I see how taking less than a minute of my time to post these up qualifies as "fail."
Whatever helps you sleep at night I suppose.
From the c-blog rules and guidelines:
4. Don't flood the C-Blogs with inside jokes, one-word/one-sentence posts, and other nonsense that might be considered trolling or spamming. Put actual effort into your posts.
I'm guessing you don't know what a troll is. These reactions are just encouraging.
@Chrono
You're still here? lol
It's this type of thing that gives gamers a bad name. I guess it's interesting to see that assholes like this actually do exist and aren't a figment of Jack Thompson's imagination... but it's distasteful I guess to see this reality. I'm just emminently thankful that you are in the vast minority of gamers and that most of us just "play the game" and don't need to live out the assinine stereotype.
My opinion anyway. Not that you want to hear it, but that's what you get for posting on a public blogging site.
Welcome to Destructoid.
This cblawg has been made better by Super Cheech & Chong Bros.
To be honest with you, I could really give a fuck less about Jack Thompson, how the media views gamers, and most of all, if this video is "offensive" just because of a bunch of kids are acting silly in an online video game. You're taking this all way too seriously. It's just a video game, and it's just a bunch of kids having fun.
Don't get me wrong, I'm not saying this with anger, nor am I trying to be insulting. I'm just merely stating what should be obvious to people. This is all in stupid fun, what's done on the internet doesn't mean shit in real life, a bunch of kids playing video games should not translate to "kids harming the image of an important, super serious, sub-culture known as 'gamers.'"
I play games. I enjoy playing games in my spare time. That's all that matters to me.
I'm not saying this with anger either... it's just a sad reality that every once in awhile I run into a dick-head like you've shown in the video and they basically just won't shut up... even muting them doesn't stop them as I often get my PSN inbox spammed with lovely pornographic images and rape-threats when I ask them politely to shut the fuck up.
Do what you want in private games with your friends... but when you're in a public game, acting like that just make doesn't show you "have" a big dick... it just shows you "are" a big dick. I just don't understand why you want to broadcast and announce your status as a big dick to the world.
I'm sure there are some that appreciate your video posts... but from my perspective I guess I just find it frustrating that it's people shown in your video that make it difficult for me to enjoy certain online games - it's sometimes just too much work to keep muting and putting up with assholes and easier to move on to a different game where the asshole percentage isn't quite so high.
eh... such is life I guess.
First things first, I'm not the one being the "nigga" in that video. Quite frankly, I have no idea who it was. I just found his antics ridiculous and funny, so I put up fraps.
Secondly, I honestly think you're taking this too personally. And don't tell me that it's "subjective" and that just because this stuff is trivial to me doesn't mean it's not a big deal or is a real hinderance to some "gaming community." I hate to break it to you, but in real life, none of this matters, and online communities mean jack. It's not "my opinion," it's a fact of life. You're giving too much importance to trivial shit.
"it's just a sad reality that every once in awhile I run into a dick-head like you've shown in the video and they basically just won't shut up... even muting them doesn't stop them as I often get my PSN inbox spammed with lovely pornographic images and rape-threats when I ask them politely to shut the fuck up."
Oh wow, getting spammed by pornographic images and empty threats for maybe about 5 minutes, and having some guy scream at you for about less than 1 minute (even if you're slow to mute). Is that really such a big deal?
You want these guys to shut the fuck up? You want trolls to leave you alone? Then don't respond to them, and move on with your life. It's not hard to mute, and it's not hard to block. If worse comes to worse, it's not hard to play another game or even just find another server. Hell, you don't even have to do that. I come across griefers on Xbox Live when I play seriously, and honestly, I rarely leave. If they send me a message, I don't respond, if they talk to me and keep trying to troll me, I ignore them and keep doing my own thing. Because of this lack of response, they leave in about 2 minutes and I never see them again.
This is exactly the point I was making above: what makes trolling funny is that people take games (and other things) way too seriously, and are too easily annoyed by the antics of others. It's also ironic because people are so proud and naive that they feel the need to "defend their honor" online. Screaming "shut the fuck up" to a troll will just make things worse for you, whereas the opposite (being, shutting yourself up), is what gets them away.
It's not even just with online games. Look at all the attention I've gotten on my blog. Despite the fact that I'm openly trolling, people still think it's wise to fire more insults and arguments, as if they don't know that I could give a fuck less and am greatly amused by it all.
Let's say no one replied to my first post. People still didn't find it amusing, but rather than trying to look cool by firing sarcastic comments, they just did what any normal human being should've done: closed the video once they get annoyed, and went on with their business. Do you honestly think I would be here right now fucking with all of you?
on a related note : how long have you been visiting this site fusoya?
I have to be honest, I don't really give a shit about video games. I'm just bored and am having fun fucking with people.
There are much more important things in life than this shit, lol.
Frankly, if you put as much work into your initial c-blogs as you did into your replies to me, then I suspect you might make an excellent blogger. Posting up just the videos doesn't seem the quality of c-blogs this community is used to. You're obviously capable of better, and if you must post these type of videos, having some sort of meaningful commentary on them makes them more than just spamming utube crap and can actually evoke some form of meaningful conversation with the membership.
Again, though... just my opinion.
....and I've often said that "if you feed a troll you have to adopt it"... which is essentially what you said in your response. So do you prefer Troll Kibble or canned? :)
"you're quite right.. not responding and moving on is the answer.. but dammit it's so hard to do sometimes! LOL! "
I can tell, given the fact that you're still here! :D
I really don't see how such an easy thing can be so hard for so many people on the internet. Why do you feel the need to keep responding to me? My excuse is that I'm a troll, I'm pouring gasoline on a fire for my own amusement. How about you?
I have to be honest, I don't really give a shit about video games. I'm just bored and am having fun fucking with people."
GTFO. I thought I could lighten up the mood in this one, but it fails too bad. Also, don't be a hate a playa, go back to 4chan, whateva.
You people are too easy.
Do you happen to that big giant THREAD LOCKED lock handy? -__-
Fair enough! I accept.
@Rifter
Cry moar plz. ^.^
Thanks loads guys! :D :D :D
E> Hugs, kisses, and love <3
NEW VIDEO UP!
Way to ruin such a GREAT fucking username. :(
It's a moron who's so unintelligent, he hides his mental retardation behind Trolling as an excuse.
If you want to fuck around on the internet, go to 4chan or something. Don't bother us.
The fact that little ol' me caused such a shitstorm just by a few silly comments and posts is a bit sad.
Am I really worth so much of your time and emotion?
Are my blogs shit? Yes, but you don't really have to click on them, and they're only taking up 2 spaces out of about 25 right now. The most they've ever done was 3/25. Seriously, that's not even a dent.
I still don't understand what you guys are hoping to accomplish by replying anyhow. Personally, I'm having fun. You guys don't look like you're having much fun though... So what are you trying to accomplish? What motivates you to continue the shitstorm? :)
@ARCH649
"So your claim that nothing from the internet matters and that we don't have lives is a great misconception. "
Well for one, I never said "you guys have no lives," I just said that this "video game community/internet" shit is trivial, so I'm taking that as a sign of insecurity. Also, for all of you convincing yourselves that this shit really does matter, all I can say is good for you: keep telling yourselves that. Whatever helps you sleep at night feeling as though you're actually accomplishing something in life :)
I love all you guys <3
You guys are precisely the reason why griefers/trolls continue to do what they do :) I'm only sorry to say that I don't have any more videos up at the moment, so I can't really "spam" the blogs anymore :( but I promise to keep commenting on these blogs as long as you keep doing so :D
Run Simba, run far away. Never to return.
Raged.
And that's how irony works.
