Nonsense. XIII is a pretty low quality user, and the board is a total joke for letting one of the least interesting trolls ever suddenly become a Top 10 user despite still being incredibly boring, only based on the "merits" of not trolling anymore and having hours to waste in B8chat.

But RPGLord is cool enough, I've got nothing against the guy. I made a comment that it was good he got eliminated, as, frankly, he doesn't do all that much outside B8chat. But just because I consider him like Top 50 user as opposed to Top 5 doesn't mean I hate him.

And it's okay if you don't wanna be friends anymore, your call. I still like you for what you've done and continue to do here.

Don't wanna hear your justifications man.

The board does, and I've got the right of an answer to FALSE accusations (well, half of them).

Kind of a sad topic, really.

That said, Vlado has been on crazy Board 8 conspiracy theories for years. Why the sudden change here? He's been bashing legit good people for years, long before this topic happened. Icon and tran and Ed are great dudes who wouldn't hurt a cancer cell, and Vlado was being a douche with them for years.

Those three are elitists who are often rude to users they consider inferior. It's a FACT. We recently had a discussion about this, I'll edit this post with the link in a bit.

Okay Vlado, how about you stop dancing around the question and either give straight answers or just quit. You're just accusing me of being biased (as wrong as it is hypocritical) to try and discredit my argument without actually making a counter-argument. If you want to say I don't know anything about the industry, how about you prove it? Argue against me, prove me wrong. Otherwise you don't get to make that judgment.

Basically, put your money where your mouth is. Prove that what you say about me is true. Give me some examples. Otherwise it's just lies and slander.

You literally consider Wii to not be an insult to gamers. Next.

We do not have exact sale numbers, only rough approximations. So it's up to find those and decide how much you want to trust those. It's a fact that both have been quite similar in how hyped they were in the beginning, and how disappointed fans of the franchise eventually were. But hey, that's true for any Zelda after OoT because that mediocre game is apparently the Holy Graal of Gaming!

xfd, it just so happens that you only battle those supposed liar monsters in threads where those monsters are attacking the poor Wii maiden.
So hey Vlado, do you think LS is lying here? Just gimme a straight up answer, yes or no. And don't try to dodge by addressing someone else either, please.

I haven't called anyone a liar. LS IS a pretty biased Nintendo fan, though. Quite clueless regarding the industry, too, as his posts in the past few years clearly indicate. But the two usually go hand-in-hand.

I didn't know offering advice to someone meant you "owned" them.

Sure, you're allowed to not trust him, I'm not trying to deny you that right. I just think you're not helping yourself by being so suspicious. Relax.

Like you said, it's just a gaming message board on the internet. How do you know Bio is acting sincere? He hasn't even done anything of note to prove that he's serious about the change. Some people like you like Bio, some don't. Deal with it. Not everyone has the same opinion of everyone else.

And seriously, what did you expect from me? What do you want? I'm not Genny or Inviso.

I expected you to be a positive person because that's the impression you've given me. Perhaps I've been mistaken, though.

Who cares if he's sincere or not? It doesn't really matter, I don't lose a thing if I trust him here and it later turns out he was lying through his teeth. Opening himself up to strangers is brave enough in my book. Fear not, he won't suddenly threaten your Top 10 spot in User of the Year with this apology.

I just do not see your problem.

And what do you expect the guy to do? What we do here is post stuff. There's little more he could do than add some text to the forum.

you only grow to dislike vlado when you start finding yourself in disagreement with him

there are people here who can disagree with you and do it politely or in a way that generates interesting discussion (transience, icon, zfs)

there are people who can be argumentative but at least don't make it ugly and it can still be interesting and worthwhile (SEP, SmartMuffin)

and then there are people like Vlado and joyrock, where arguments are snarky, filled with condescension, and you wonder "why am I stuck in another argument with this person again"

you could start a conversation of "I think the Wii U is going to be better than PS4" with each of those groups of people and the argument would go way differently depending on who it is.

I don't see why certainty that one console is better than another or something like that should be taken personally by anyone. It's not condescension. In a different context, I could speak to the same person completely friendly and the fact I perceived them as a blind Nintendo fan would not matter one bit if they wanted computer help or something.

While it's the exact opposite with my haters - they don't like something I say in some thread and suddenly they hate me and occasionally speak badly of me in completely unrelated threads. It makes no sense.

how does "it's annoying and i feel bad for you if you are actually like that in real life" sound to you.

Being confident in your thoughts and abilities helps in "real life," believe it or not. Not 100% of the time, but it's certainly a plus.

Generally, it's his "holier than thou" attitude and his inability to be humble.

I am who I am. Do you have a problem with arrogant people? Why? What bad does it do to you? What does it matter to you how they choose to live their lives?

I do not see why one should dislike arrogance unless it personally affects one negatively.

As for me, some of my favourite people come off as arrogant, Jose Mourinho, Hristo Stoichkov and Diego Maradona being the first examples I can think of. You know what else they have in common? Amazing guys in personal interaction - for instance, Mourinho has never had a bad relationship with a SINGLE one of his players. They all love him. The same could be said of very few other managers who have achieved success on such scale.

For the sake of your emotional stability, maybe it'd be for the best if you deleted it.
That's of course what I was thinking.

You've always seemed like a cool guy, Vlado. I don't know why people apparently hate you.

Because on the internet disliking Nintendo or speaking out against a popular user for acting badly is a far bigger crime than kindness in personal interaction can ever make up for. People tend to notice and care about pointless, petty stuff instead of what really matters.

It's the exact opposite of how stuff works in "real life" and it makes me wonder sometimes, but I've gotten used to it by now.

Eh, he's cool enough. I'm just annoyed that low-to-average quality users suddenly become forces in user contests on the board due to having time to waste in a chatroom.

But hey, it's not like the board has ever given enough recognition to people actually doing quality stuff here.


So who, in your opinion, are "high quality" users?

It is no secret that I am one of the best. I'd also name the likes of Ertyu, Ulti (used to be popular when he was uninteresting, he started doing worthwhile stuff and now half the board hates him), Liquid Wind, SephirothG, SHINE, ZFS, among others.
