I do not think that word means what you think it means.

This conflict bores me. If only you were to touch on the subject more, but rather you are focusing your posts on the person, me.

Uh-oh, it's the "I'm done with this thread" meme! Soon to be followed by the "I wasn't going to post again, but I just HAD to respond..." meme.

Here you move from opinion into fact, and you get it wrong. A long time ago i came here and i was against multiple systems, but not for this round of combat. I merely argued FFA vs SML (slack mode loot).

Soooo... now you're in favor of allowing both allocated loot and FFA (frolicking, frothing assholes) loot? But despite this, you're droning on and on about how yours is better? And you think MY posts are pointless?

And here, for the final GG i suggest you take a closer look at my signature

I've seen quite enough of your crack for my own comfort, thanks.

ITT people try to argue that FFA is a life philosophy.

Yep. And then when we call them on it, they assert that it's a personal attack. It's a clever little ploy, I'll admit, since it seems to appeal to both emotionalism and intellectualism simultaneously. But if we shine the light for long enough the shadows scatter.

Frankly the goofy attempts at arguing a point by the 'previously-pro-ffa'ers' is not even worth responding to anymore

I see, well, not only does it make full sense in itself, it is also a famous qoute.

I lose interest when you try to write novels here, and notice how i with a small comment endeth your entire last wall. Masterminded by Me, Myself and I.

Yes it must be hard on you, i know you came at me thinking you'd snatch this one. That's the good old double blade sword once again because i am the Crackmonster.

You belittle yourself with these deranged posts. Who sits up all night writing down ways to mock and belittle someones opinions? ..lulz

This is a damn loot thread you lunatic. Theres no need to pick apart every single sentence and reply to it.





Anyways..

GGG simply dropped the ball. Between Ten_Of_Swords and CrackMonsters posts there is nothing left to be said. They pretty much said it all. Better then i could have ever said anyways.


The only good that can come from this is maybe GGG can focus on the actual game now instead of constantly hearing about LOOT getting STOLEN. But, we all know that won't happen till its full instanced. Players will still be back here complaining about NOT gettting drops no matter how long the time is. Players wil use dirty tricks to block them now even more then ever.

Also, longer timers will mean 'Squirrel' looters will appear.



Squirrel looter? Ya, guys that will see a good drop but act like nothing happened and come back 10 seconds to 10 minutes later to pick up the drop. Why? Because they can. Lord knows i will.

So, lets all wait for the new patch and shut up already. The fact that people think that ARPG should have loot options is mind blowing to say the least. But, good job ruining a small portion of the game.



But seriously, after 900+ pages of mainly crying like spolied brats you have NOTHNG to be proud off. And rubbing it peoples faces and acting like you're right is barely salt in the wound.


Its pretty pathetic when you really think about it. But, good job kiddies. You should be proud. XD

Certainly not you, apparently.

Master-something, anyway. Still playing with your double-edged sword?

Bladibladiblaahblaah.

Yes, this sums up your argument quite succinctly. Couldn't you have just begun and ended with that? It'd have saved us all kudos of time. Far less entertaining, though. I'm a bit torn.

First cracks, now snatches? Oh, you...

bye bye

Pro ffa'ers are so butthurt by the manifesto. Your tears taste salty & good.

Thank the lord GGG have decided not to listen you guys & have decided that the community at large is more important. & yet pro ffa'ers still try to come across as vitriolic about the decision saying "oh well, they just ruined the game".

Do you really think GGG would change the game just to ruin it? Come on now, the decision was made due to the community outcry & internal discussion, not because GGG suddenly decided to sabotage their game.

Carry on.

No tears, I look forward to pure FFA.
