    @Chonch, I'm not going to even attempt a quote as your diatribe is way to involved to start cutting it down, but you have your facts in err. I have always tried to make my posts respectable and respect others. Your statement about me punching Zack and then his reciprocating caused me to call the police is absolute BS. That little pissant started on me from day # 1 without any provocation from me. He continued to make personal attacks on both myself and others. Continued his mocking on to using mine and others CS in the game and even using our actual names. And you're saying that I started this? You're full of shit. Now you come here talking the stuff that is going on in FB and bringing it here. And to think I came here to find level heads. Then Waldo started bringing in the pics trying to suggest MOB and members of MOB are gay. Would you just sit back and let that continue without voicing your anger? BS!!! If some dick said that shit to your face in person on a continual basis you'd do something about it too! You can take your high and mighty attitude somewhere else, but don't bring that FB nonsense to TA in the name of complaining why you don't like FB! Your hypocrisy is showing!

    I used the (obviously) fictitious "punching" line as an example of how you guys (some MOB and SAW members) engage in regular banter until it escalates to a point where one of you feels it's gotten too personal and then you freak out. Not unlike your post here. This happened during the tournament weekend when you and BUMCRACK/KnuckleDuster decided you'd had enough but it seemed silly to choose a random action to make everyone wake up. All my previous posts have been about noticing a similar pattern developing in the last few days. If you hate the degree in which the squad sparring escalates then why don't you just choose not to engage in it rather than lash out at me for pointing it out. I'm glad you've responded but you did so in a way that I feel confirms more of what I've been saying all along than somehow "showing my hypocrisy." I don't insult other squads or call anyone gay or anything else. The only other user/player I really "tease" is Waldo and we mostly do that on one another's personal pages far removed from the general SoG discussion.

    Please respond to anything else I've said but doing so in the manner you just did is going to make it really hard for me to see your argument.

    @Chonch, I thought the punching and calling the cops analogy was kind of weird. I think a better analogy would have been getting punched, calling it unsportsmanlike, but then hitting back anyway. I could be wrong though.

    @Kingpin, I think Chonch posted here because there tends to be more civil discussions - I agree. I hope we can keep it that way.*

    @Everyone, I think the overall message here is that even though a person may feel he, or as silly as it is, his "squad" was unfairly attacked, and that he has the right to respond in kind, we're just escalating the ordeal, which sucks for the whole community. I would hate to lose people like the Mecks bcz we can't stay civil.

    I mean Zack is a kid and more so, he's just trolling with little else better to do. If you keep that in mind, then it shouldn't bother you anymore than spam in your inbox does.*

    I like the community; I like the squads, but at the end of the day, I probably have a hundred other things I should be doing. That probably goes for others here on TA as well. I do this bcz it's fun. If things gets too bad though, *hell, I'll change my name back to*"iPhone" and just enjoy the game.

    I agree it could have been better. Your version is exactly how I would have liked to have worded it. I always try to respond quickly and could benefit from proofreading my posts before I click reply. As usual, I agree with everything you said. :)

    Hi Guys! You guys playing cards?

    I apologize for my insensitive posts on FB. They were meant to be semi-offensive, funny, and disrespectful (in fun way!) but not hurtful. Some of the younger members of my Squadron followed my lead and it spiraled out of control. I know when I'm wrong and can admit it. I don't think so highly of myself that I can't take criticism, or strong suggestions about my abhorent behaviour, so whenever I get to acting in a offensive way, just go ahead and tell me. I'll stop.

    Come on back to FB, Chonch. Please. ;-D

    Dearest Waldo,

    You haven't done anything to offend me and I'm still on FB. I'm just going to take a break from the main SoG wall because it doesn't seem to be about the game anymore. Besides, I don't play that often anyway. I'll still post Saul Goodman videos on your wall when they appear on YouTube. Maybe if I have the time I'll photoshop some pics and make some sweet billboard style ads for you so you can become the most ridiculously badass defense attorney the state of Missouri has ever seen!

    Warmly,

    Your Loving Chonch

    What I'm saying is that this kind of crap gets old. whether you were just giving an example or not you used me as an example and gave false information. I honestly have no memory of the instance of BUMCRACK you are referring to, but as to the recent events it's been non-stop. I agree with you in just about everything you have had to say. Truthfully you're one of my favorites! At the same time I can't just let people hand out false information and let it remain the status quo and to be believed by all. Forgive me for being sensitive about this, but I'm kinda raw right now to this whole thing and tired of being trashed everywhere I go for trying to show respect. I shouldn't type when I'm pissed and again I apologize. Just a little sick of being talked about, misquoted, and verbally abused everywhere I turn for what? Forming a squad? Dominating as a squad? Squads were here before me. I wanted to fly with guys I respected and enjoyed the game as much as I did. Hell I would have loved to have you on our squad and still would for that matter. I have nothing but respect for you and your ability to play the game. Just sick of being ragged on. peace

    Well said m@yhem! Its like a football game, the defensive end says all kinds of crap to the offensive lineman to get in his head untill he finally jumps offsides or commits a personal foul!! You can let the child get you out of your game! Like I have said to others in FB before about zack, he's a 15-16 yr old kid who loves attn. Shock & awe tactics then waits for a response! If you keep responding to that negative behavior, it continues to grow. Previously alot of people blocked the westfall brothers and when they couldn't get their fix, they got back in line. Don't let the kids rattle your game!

    As for Waldo, he's whitty and cracks me up. My type of humor but somethings don't belong on the main pg. He agrees also.

    Shern is Shern, you take the good, you take the bad, you take it all and there you have..... Sorry, reminded be of an old tv show.


    Thanks for the compliment Chonch. I've gotten alot better but nowhere near an ace!! I've learned by playing against you, he others in SAB & those here in TA!!

    I mentioned you and Shern because you two are the two squad leaders. I also used you as in an example with Zack because you two were constantly arguing on the main page several weeks ago. Then members of MOB called for everyone to block the Westfall brothers because they felt they had gone too far. Like others here I just feel like as adults we realize they are kids looking for attention and they know how to get it. So why give them what they want? I also felt like the main page was getting more contentious recently and saw others make similar posts on different pages. So I decided to post here and it turned into a discussion. I don't think anyone is ganging up on you or Shern and I'm really surprised you took it so personally.

    What I've realized today is that I don't play very often and for that reason I shouldn't really have a say or an opinion of what goes on on the FB page. I just know that I'm not alone when I say that the MOB vs. SAW whining has pushed me away from the game. I used to think it was boredom or a lack of regular updates but I realized the other day that neither of those were really the cause. It was fun playing for the past few months but with each new argument I'm really only left with the realization that I've got more important things I could be doing.

    I miss them too. I look at the FB page now and again, shake my head at what's there. Then I come back here, shake my head again because there's next to nothing here. At least there's some life here now.

    Why don't all y'all leave the kids over on FB to play their silly games, and bring the good old crowd back here.

    Fine. Lurking for the most part. Playing SoG some, but not too consistently -- been busy at work. Gradually climbing the ranks from scratch with an iPhone 4. I see some of the old crowd now and again, but rarely, at least under their old names - it's usually SAW this or MOB that. As I said, I stay away from FB, so I'm out of the loop on a lot of stuff. Which is fine.

    See you in the skies some time.

    Wow, I peek in and everyone's all freaked out!

    Hi, all :)

    Lol, Animal House!

    Waldo, you're new to me, so I let me say that your name reminds me that I need to see that Robert Redford movie again! I haven't seen it since I was a kid. I remember an inside loop that ended up with a sickening thud on the ground. I didn't like that scene as a kid, but I figure I can handle it now!

    That's the conversation I was reffering to. DW promised that unruly behavior would be dealt with. Yet nothing happened in the coming months. But I'm glad to see shern at work trying to stop all of this.

    I agree with tee-em, the old crowd who want to avoid all the unnecessary confrontation should come over to TA. And regarding what chonch said about the best players being the silent ones. As the saying goes, those who speak are still learning, those who don't speak know.

    By the way, nice to see you frumius!
