Me... well, I play for threee reasons. 1) It's fun, duh! ^-^
2) I like beating my friends from school in here.
3) I wanna be with DXZero as much as possible... *blushes a bit* So, what's your motivation?

Tarkan, are you ok? You seem down in the dumps (fig of speech by the way..)...

I feel your pain tark.

I used to love playing the game, and coming to the forum.
but latley the forums, and even more the game are swarming with loud, stupied n00bs.
half the time i'm afraid to go into a server for the fear of being annoyed by all the n00bs.
but eventually I work up the courage and go in there.

but....but....the horror, oh the horror

Do you guys need a psychologist? If you do, there should be one down the street from your houses. (how do I know? Everyone has a psychologist in there neighborhood....)

TarkanX
04-21-2002, 07:39 AM
Why did this happen? Was this supposed to happen....? the only reason why people play the game is for rank.... if I ask people that if they care for rank, they say no. I know they're lying, I know they are! They just don't want to admit it!

Argh! One day, something good will happen.... but it'll take a while for that to happen.

......Is that supposed to be a joke, I don't take that nicely..... take it back!

Roll
04-21-2002, 07:43 AM
Well, It's not really a joke. Just look how you guys talked (er... what you wrote anyway..) and you'll see what I mean. Sorry if it's offensive. but it is kinda true. o.o;

TarkanX
04-21-2002, 07:47 AM
Yeah I'm acting psycho right now, but I'm desperate....(for cyclops to come so there are no more ryu vs. ryu matches, for the top scores to shut dow and die..., for this place to be a high IQ place, and for flaming to quit).

well how long.
TELL ME!!!!!HOW LONG!?!?!?

I can't wait any longer.

soon the n00bs will consume us all untill there is no one left..........then they'll get the mods too.

TarkanX
04-21-2002, 07:54 AM
the n00bs aren't going..... they're staying here forever(well as long as this game is still here). We have to deal with it. You could e-mail most of the vets that participated in the necro/ewalk/ZingTOC1 tourney, but their e-mails bight have gone bad, or they won't reply to you.... its a try though.


But we can't out number them..... people leave then people come. That is how the cycle is on this game.

Your right they aren't, but the majority is, and thats what things are judged by, "majority"

And that's good for you, but will you play this game for fun when your 1st in the ranks? or stoop so low that youll face n00bs all day just to be ahead of everyone.... the more people focus on ranks, the worse the games condition gets... I'm going to make a statement in the chat.

ZeroEna

Some (I said some) of the noobs are like you said Tarkan. but I think the easyest way to take care of them is to drag them out of here into the game then teach them a leson by beating them to a bloody pulp. A little tough love so to speak. Not in the real world though. Also Krazy Kid crap why should we fear the noobs? Don't be scared of them it like I always say Sometimes you just have to meet life head on! [As for motiveation this might sound a bit weird OK? Try pretending you are the character your useing except if your a guy useing Chun-li that might be a little hard.:biggrin: any way pretend your them like with Ryu pretend your fighting to be the best or for Sakura heh heh. Wolverine for your friends and family or the #### of it! Chun-Li Bison killed your parents. Understand it now?

that's exactly what were talking about.
ppl like this guy, playing for rank.......
If only I had the power of a the mods....
oh what I would do to these annoying n00bs....

ZeroEna
04-21-2002, 07:18 PM
I play for these reasons:
1. FOR FUN!
2. to be the greatest Ryu and Ken player
3. to reach #1 at least once
4. for a friend(just friend) of mine.
5. to beat my greatest rival!

All you people who play just for rank are heartless. I can't stand people like that, its like Ryu fighting without Chi. And if you have no heart strength has no meaning.

Wanna Know Why I Fight? I Fight Because I Wanna Leave This Site One Day And Be Known As "One Of The Best." Not In Rank. But As A Fighter. And As A Person. Such As Tarkan, Nferno666, Dx Zero , ####### And so on. To me, Rank Means Nothing! And That's My Reason!

Indeed I do...

I play for the fun of it, for the thrill of the fight! My user name might be Dan Hibiki, but I'm more like Ryu with my view on fighting. I just want a challenge, and to become better and enjoy myself! I find it hard to do that now... too many people are point scrooges, hoarding points and focusing only on their rank, rather than genuine enjoyment. I enter chat rooms to a barrage of challenges and insults, and when I beat people I get so much crap that I can hardly stand it anymore.

I don't care about my rank, and it never really mattered to me in the first place. I've been ranked 57th before... so what? My record is a losing record because I like a challenge a bit too much... so what? Rank, win-loss records, reputation... they are all immaterial. What matters is the fight itself, and being able to have fun just because you are fighting a skilled opponent.

So many people have lost sight of these ideals. It is my hope that those people find them again.

i fought you tarkan, long ago !

the reason i did fight you was because you were the best at that time ! (you probably still is) but when i fight im not in for the rank (proof is im still 2500 and above)

i do fight for fun
i do think a fighting game is more than that
i do think im the char when i play
i do make my own story when playing
i do think that game could be better
i do know that tmyapp does his best

the worst is, ryu has been here since first day !
and he became too powerfull to be beaten that easily
im real good with chun-li and still i lose too easily then i choose ryu and kick the person out ! that just cannot be true !

the person is a great fighter a give you loses and then you take im on with ryu and you win easily ?

no, that cannot be true !

04-22-2002, 09:44 AM
im bout a week or two from quiting myself

TarkanX: i hear ya

not much i can do though... Cyclops is .. well.. how can i put this ... "behind"... i'm aiming for mid May now (maybe even the end of May)

no one really has any idea of what it took to get this buggy version of the 4 player mode out (but it took MORE than "a lot" of ass busting around the clock)....

despite the n00bs and people leaving left and right (and i say this very month) people play the game now more than ever (we're now up to 30,000 hits per week, and well over 100k users... not that anyone cares)

anyway... bugs will die (one by one)... new chars will be added (one by one.. but slower)... as for the n00bs ??? well... i guess the best thing u can do is just stick with your friends... meet up on the empty chat servers, host u'r own games/chat-only-games ... and, perhaps, we need an option that will allow you NOT to submit your scores...

there are also a LOT of other GOOD ideas on my "list" .. but... i wont' get around to even thinking about them until few weeks/months from now (which may seem like a LOT to you guys, but to me, after working on this "project" for over a year, it really is noffin'... weeks/months... same crap... i dont even notice/keep-track-of them anymore) :biggrin:

if u gotta go... go, if u want to stay... stay... in either case, i have no idea what will happen next (just like all of u)... things might get better, and they might get worse...

no one knows...

I know my name says Newbie under it but I am not, I just haven't been posting until a short time ago. The nOObs have really killed this game. It use to be good to go in a server without looking at some dumb@ss cussing at someone else or challanging someone. I use to have motivation but they killed it. I dont only play this game for rank... I play it for fun.

No offence to you guys but Roll can say whatever she wants on This thread after all its Her thread. And please guys no more fighting it's tearing me up inside. sniff* sniff* Play this game for fun and friends not for argueing if I wanted to be around that I'd stay at school after hours. And MDKA, Tarkan, and Physicals just remember patience is a virtue and that "good things come to those who wait". things will get better. sniff* (i think I'm geting a cold.)
