Flame Wars

Post by gcwca_4_life »

The master suggestion.

Bring Flame Wars back.

These people are too soft and sometimes people just need to be knocked down to the level they truly are at.

Bring Flame Wars back so I can start hurting feelings within the rules because some of these weak no backbone saps deserve it.

I know admins are against it, but be realistic, even you admins and mods have to admit you want to lash out at people that deserve it without consequences.. And we all deserve the chance to do so.

My man, they can't even handle double entendre and word play around here, what makes you think they could handle Flame Wars?!!!
I for one agree with you, bring it back!!!! Put up a poll!!!!! One suggestion, you may want to sit all the chat mods down and let them watch
a PSA to soften the blow and give them the tools necessary for being in that forum:

How about everyone just being polite to people, recognising that this is just a kids game with a large slice of luck, that sometimes people aren't going to play how you would like, and it's not a test or statement of your manliness? That way, no-one needs to insult or be insulted by anyone. There's a poem by Rudyard Kipling called "If"; I would draw your attention to the line "If you can meet with Triumph and Disaster And treat those two impostors just the same" among many wise words, and finishes with the lines "Yours is the Earth and everything that’s in it,
And—which is more—you’ll be a Man, my son!"

Dealing with winning or losing equally, without getting carried away with excitement or disappointment, is the mark of a man - not being able to swear or be aggressive, or deride people for being "too soft". Take a step back and ask yourself why you need people to have a backbone for playing a board game for fun. If you need to lash out because someone got luckier with the dice, or made a wrong move, I don't see the problem being their lack of backbone.

You may have completely missed the point.
Well, part of it.
Flame Wars was an off topic forum section.
A section where you could openly trash anyone, and if they had the guts they could lash back.

It has absolutely nothing to do with dice, or conquer club. It has absolutely everything to do with calling people out for who they truly are as a person and how horrible their character is.

Not everything on here has to be about dice and luck. Where is the fun in that?
When they removed flame Wars CC lost over 3k members. .and I'm running to bring it back..

And it also have everything to do with the coddled cancel culture weak spined no backbone kids who need life lessons that I got when I was in my teenage years that can't be given because it was removed in the first place.
If I bash someone for who they truly are and how horrible of a person they are in any forum section on here now I get banned. But in flame Wars they get everything they deserve.


Bring it back! Bring it back! Bring it back!!!!

Well, I can't imagine what else would cause you to attack someone verbally other than their play or chat, unless you know them in real life, in which case this wouldn't be the place to deal with it. Who is to say what someone "deserves"? As Ricky Gervais observed, "Just because you're offended, it doesn't mean you're right". Isn't this just going to extend people's foe lists and reduce the number of available games? Might it also not put off new joiners who see how players treat each other? I suspect that the main reason for it not being available is that one could probably sue someone for libel or defamation if it were related to anything outside the realm of the site, and therefore the site might be liable, so I wouldn't see them risking that.

Personally, I think there are better ways of dealing with the emotional baggage from one's past than purposefully trying to offend strangers.

If you were to ask owenshooter, or anyone that was active on the site 15 years ago, that's an extremely false statement. Lol

Some people need their feelings hurt to know they are only human like the rest of us.
Some people sit too high on their shit brown horses they tried to bleach white and do their best to look down on others and those truly need to be knocked in the mud and truths they hide from.

The great plane of weakness needs to end. Make the sorry stronger with destruction of their souls through Flame Wars.


Bring it back! Bring it back! Bring it back!

Let me make someone's day 100x worse before I finish a bowl of cereal. Pissing in someone else's corn flakes just makes the day that much better for me.
