Default Re: PBW Down? - Back up!

Okay, Fyron... you asked for it. Next time READ the Posts. Following are quotes from me... feel free to double check them.

Quote:
Are your fingers so lethargic that you cannot go through the extra effort of sending an email?
From the first post. There is nothing stating admins unwilling to run turns. I admit that I did not state explicity that it is the players I was talking about but any NORMAL mind could figure out that I meant the players.

Quote:
That's okay, because I am not looking for an argument. I want those who are holding up games to play, because it's hardly fair that we have to wait for months because they don't want to expend the small extra effort to email their turns to the admin.
OMG! Here I am actually being specific enough even for you, Fyron.

Quote:
... I am specifically addressing the players unwilling to send their turns.
If the previous mention was not enough to clue you in.

Quote:
Actually no, because I am addressing the PLAYERS that refuse to send their turns into an admin who IS willing to go through the trouble.
Uh oh... your firm grasp on reality is looking rather limp now.

Quote:
I want the players in my game to play the game or get out.
The final indication that I am talking about the players. Listen, Fyron... don't debate this issue with me you are obviously ill equiped for it and the basic understanding of reason.

Please remain civil Gyphon. You said you are not looking for a flame, but the tone of your latest Posts is starting to turn into one.

Quote:
The game admins can run the turns for everyone. What's the big deal? Are your fingers so lethargic that you cannot go through the extra effort of sending an email? This is a friendly plea to STOP HOLDING UP THE GAMES!
This right here is the gist of your first post on this. It does not mention players at all (and neither does the rest of that post), and an interpretation that you are talking about lazy hosts is equally valid as the interpretation that you are talking about lazy players.

Flame? Believe me if I intended to flame, you would be crying right now. I am being forceful with one who is unable to grasp my point. Also, I would be laying out a detailed theory to explain exectly why you are unable to.

Okay... looks like we have to tear this part and explain it for you.

"The game admins can run the turns for everyone."

Meaning a simple offering of information in order to get the point accross that one does not need PBW.

"What's the big deal? Are your fingers so lethargic that you cannot go through the extra effort of sending an email?"

See that? "an email". Meaning a single email from... oh lessee... A PLAYER? An admin sends multiple emails. Besides, I can't believe you are still pushing this issue after my generous quoting in my Last post.

Now drop it.

Will you please step back and look at this from someone else's point of view? Again, either interpretation of your vague post is equally valid.

If your not looking for a flame how about you stop insulting the game hosts. If you are getting so upset about not being able to play PBW for a couple weeks you really need to get a life.

I am not concerned with PBW. You guys keep missing that point, and I care not to repeat it yet again... you'll just ignore it again and go back to the original post.

Besides. I have stated, quoted and re-quoted often enough so that you people would understand BY NOW exactly what I was talking about. It's not my fault you are unwilling to let the original post go. You require no other information other then what I have given thus far and seeing as how you are unwilling and unable to take advantage of that I do not care to waste my time any longer. I have things I need to do and talking to walls is not one of them. Cya

*sigh*

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.
