Racist, bigot... doesn't really matter as its simply a matter of semantics and translation issues.

The real problem is that he thinks he isn't a bigot/racist despite admitting that the is prejudicial against specific groups. That would be like one of us here saying they aren't racist, they just hate blacks. That is THE definition of being racist, regardless of how you treat every other race.

I'd submit that there actually isn't a problem anyways. If an account starts spouting racist nonsense, it'll get banned and we all move on pretty much unaffected.

Back to your original post...

|> I am pointing this out because I 've never entered and will never enter any FFA games, so that's a reliable way to set the two accounts apart and blacklist the fake account.

A quick look on your profile tells me that you have never played a multi-player game. EVER.

So why are you spouting random nonsense about blacklisting this account, when you don't even play multi-player?


In unrelated news

Why should we believe you're not the fake account and the other one isn't the *original*?!?!?!?!

My personal opinion is that they are all accounts of the same person who has availed himself/herself of the opportunity to troll us. Because trolls, you know, receive reward points that can be spent on valuable prizes!

@ VaporX: After what you said, I really hope I get banned from this shit. The only reason I am posting this reply is to remind you of the join dates. The original account (which is mine) was created BEFORE the troll account I had been complaining about. I am not a troll, but if something sticks into an American head, it doesn't go out, no matter how hard the tries for that will be. What you wrote about me is the ultimate insult. I am by far the best member of this (overall crappy) community and I won't tolerate any more insults like that. EVERYBODY SAY, FUCK THE USA!

This is going to be complicated and multileveled so please bear with me :-)

1.About the use of word racism: the confusion is coming from the fact that the United Kingdom Race Relations Act 1976 says;
*Meaning of “racial grounds", “racial group" etc.
(1)
In this Act, unless the context otherwise requires—

“racial grounds” means any of the following grounds, namely colour, race, **nationality** or ethnic or national origins;

“racial group” means a group of persons defined by reference to colour, race, **nationality** or ethnic or national origins, and references to a person’s racial group refer to any racial group into which he falls.*

This led to colloquial use of the word race as meaning nationality as well, especially when there is legal issue concerning discrimination(racism).

2.Creeping Death in another post: "For the first part, I agree I stated my point in a rough way. This thing happens with me sometimes. I want to say something, I state it in a hurry and end up saying something slightly different."
Your bio says: 2."Never treat others worse than they treat you" 4. "Avoid breaking any kind of rules in any way, at all costs." 8. "Do not judge people by their appearance, gender and other typical stuff like that. Judge them only by skill and behavior, and don't forget to be fair, or at least try."

You are breaking your own principles in this forum, the easiest to point out is that you write that you judge people by nationality(Americans,Germans), breaking rule No.8.

Basically you are behaving worse than anybody on this forum for some time ( including Vostro - he had the guts to apologize, when he started this provocative post about girls on Warlight)

The worst thing is that I still have some positive emotions towards you because attitude like yours is not coming from nowhere, life must have had dealt you some bad cards.

Please take a month vacation from Warlight forums, come back and read again the threads you have been posting in. Maybe you will see then that they are case of "This thing happens with me sometimes. I want to say something, I state it in a hurry and end up saying something slightly different."

Peace out :-)

My brain was hurting just trying to wrap it around the paradoxes Creeping Death was creating in her arguments. I tried to understand them all, in order to alleviate the pain.

Then I discovered a better drug. I added her to my blacklist and decided to never deal with her.

I feel much better now.

@Madtown Seems somewhat pointless as she's never on multiplayer, but whatever makes you feel better.

I must say, this thread and "Site down=boot" have been thoroughly entertaining and I had some good laughs between them. Thank you Creeping Death for making it so easy.

PS - The settings in a game (no matter the luck or settings) apply to everyone. If the luck is 75%, both players have to deal with the same amount of luck. So I'm unsure where this unfairness and cheating comes from. As for the dupe account, who cares. The dude only did it to get under your skin and it worked. He's not going to ruin your reputation by joining games and losing on purpose. You're ruining your reputation by making a fool of yourself on the forums. I don't think there is one person on your side. Soon enough he'll get bored with it and stop. But if you keep persisting and getting angry, you're only feeding his troll.

And why would Fizzer want to change the main selling point for membership (ability to change luck), that would mean that most everyone would just stay as a non-member. The reason it's been 75% was that it's been 75% default from the beginning of Warlight. Over time players have just lowered the luck for more advanced games. Even then, he's graciously allowed auto-games to have 16% even for non-members which is huge.

I just have to say that this whole debate over allowing duplicate names is really bizarre. Having some kind of unique identifier for individuals is a problem the general internet community solved back in the 80s. Now that doesn't have to be usernames, but whatever the unique identifier is should be how forum posts are identified. Speaking as a newbie, realizing that duplicate accounts are possible is only going to discourage new people from joining your community.

it's actually unique by email address so you don't actually have a duplicate account. You can have the same Name as anyone else but your stats, join date, and other specific parts of your profile are your own.

Fair enough, but your forum posts aren't identified by any of those things. I suppose simply adding join date or win percentage to forum posts would go a long way towards solving this problem, since those would be impossible or very hard to duplicate.

The settings in a game are the same for everyone, I do know that, but one kind of settings favours one playstyle and another kind of settings favours another playstyle. Are you sure you want to read which settings favour players of my style? I guess you aren't. I am a very boring player for anyone to watch and this is the main reason why I don't play MP games, as I 've already explained. Now as for duplicates, reddleman nailed it. I need to say nothing more than that.

interesting enough.. low luck favors a lot of players play style, mainly because of it's predictability.. high luck means you have to waste more armies then are necessarily necessary, which is highly inefficient. And I still believe your playstyle is just to complain, since you won't provide a demonstration under your ideal circumstances.
