In Response To: Re: Bob-B-Q, About The Scenario THing (Yossarian)

: Whatever, I'll just settle this now. I know I should have more dignity than
: to respond, but I'll take the bait.

: My reaction was in your response to calling someone a big shot and then
: proceeding to claim to have to have done your share. Maybe you have, I
: don't know, and I honestly don't care. I stand by what I wrote.

Well, I didn't have anything against the other person. He just sort of asked, "But what have YOU done for Marathon that was ever great?" That may not have been exactly what he said.

: As for the line you put in quotations above, I never said any such thing. How
: does keeping your Marathon CD in a safe place benefit the community as a
: whole? My problem is not with what you listed per se, but rather that
: you'd use that meager list to challenge total strangers on *their*
: contributions. It's like taking a Scwhinn to a hog rally and then staring
: down the grizzled bikers on their Harley's.

Well, it wasn't just about the community, but about Marathon. I could have gone on for hours about what I TRY to do. I love Marathon more than any other game, and I would gladly make any contribution possible, as long as it doesn't require something... That I don't want to do. As for the challenging strangers thing, I'm not the only one. I don't challenge total strangers unless it's online and usually when they've challenge me, like the situation that happened before you came in.

: Do I claim to be one such badass Marathon mofo? No. My contributions to the
: community are pretty limited compared to most here, but still, I call it
: like I see it, and I called you. Somehow I doubt the bravado you display
: on this forum actually exhibits itself in real life.

I see what you mean.

: I don't have anything personal against you; I chalk most of it up to your age
: more than anything; there is, after all, an accompanying degree of
: immaturity that goes along with it, and it's a stage all of us here have
: been in at some time in our lives.

That's true. However, I probably shouldn't have mentioned my age. Now people most likely think stuff like: "Oh, look at the cute little 11 year old, oh, how cute, that beady-eyed little thing is playing marathon, as;dlkfj;lsdkfjas;dlkfjad". It's pathetic.

: I have nothing more to say about this here. If there's something further you
: wish to convey to me, you may do so through e-mail.
