Just for the record: it took me months to get in b2b.

Yeah that's what I mean, most of b2b who joined, I had to convince EVERYONE else in b2b to give them the time of day to get to know them, most of which was "well if you like them, then sure" and I even had to convince members to give people a chance as some members said "I don't know them, no" but i'd always try and organise games and tournaments etc to get people interested and share the love, and I definitely made it clear to anyone who wanted to join, including some who are in b2b now, it may take a long time before you are invited, if you even get invited...

Instead of brushing people off like they don't exist, you could maybe reply with a link to the thread explaining b2b don't accept plees to join, and explain to them the same stuff you were explained when you were in their position, just common courtesy...

Dear b2b,

BnG went to shit under your watch. I hope you're proud.

Sincerly,

I think komo has a valid point if what he is telling is true....

"if"... but it's not.
And I ain't the only one to judge it, just ask anyone what they think about Komo's telling the truth. I'm sure that a big majority of ppl here would answer U that they had already witnessed many times his lies and twisting the truth. But no one have the nerves anymore to argue with Komo for the 658th time. We all have conclude that it's pointless and wasting of time.

As for the case, as darKz have already said, Toxc was the 1st one to be rude and call us all douchebags, so naturally I've told him to gtfo.

Komo, all the negative reputation that b2b ever got was because of U and your acting like a jerk on tus forums in the past, because I guess ppl saw b2b through U once. And now U come back to sell us morality and tell us how to act? It's ridiculous.. (as always)

best posts of this thread were from anubis, and ropa...


i wish i had something funny and witty to say but i dont...  fos rules

it's not like b2b modified ur beloved bng, b2b made its own bng scheme and rules, u don't have to play by those, but we just love them =)

... but ropa wasnt serious

ropa has never been any more serious in his life.

The truth, and as usual Ramone is talking bollux, the reason I got angry with most of b2b is because to put it simply, most of them are lazy useless players (meaning being enthusiastic and getting involved, they still all good people, well, most) lol.

This is starting to look a lot like "I'm not crazy! The rest of the world is crazy!"

This.


Bng is the most elitist cockfest unaccessible scheme there is. No one plays it for fun outside of b2b, it says a lot.

Some people do, but, is this b2b's fault?

In a big extent, it probably is.

Not because you're leading the community to be that way, but because you're not doing anything to lead them otherwise.

Dont be ignorant. We did plenty of good steps and not because we felt obligated to do so like if b2b was Jesus, well, maybe Komo was.. Vast majority of the community dont like BnG, even more than that arent interested in fun (e.g. even ridiculous) playage. I could write here the list of people active in 2010-2012 era that enjoyed BnG (be it fun and league) and it wouldnt be long. Look how many people play other schemes the way b2b plays bng - just as many as we have in b2b. Wait, didnt you like warmer? Now look what happened to this style, a dozen of dedicated people play it occasionaly, thats all. What have you done to make the community follow you?

Hey BnG was fun when I was hosting tournaments and running a2b sort of successfully,  at least when me and wormf00d were leaders, b2b done stuff, we got people involved, we had a fun league, made a great movie, awesome weekly tournaments with VOIP, wormf00d the resident DJ lol, we actually made BnG FUN for a while, almost no one knew how to notch... Now look at it... I can't believe how seriously non-existent b2b seems to be these days, you don't seem to do anything that involves the community or trying to spread the fun to as many new people as possible, that was the most fun thing about BnG to me, having a laugh chilling out doing tricks shots and getting people hooked on BnG, ahhhhhhhh it's so sad...

Seriously, since I left b2b, I haven't seen even one person get hooked on BnG for just the fun or the banter, the only person i've seen hooked on BnG over the last year is barman, and that's only due to the fact he can notch and has an almost flawless competitive streak against what's as useful as blind & armless kids...  But you know what, at least barman gave it his BEST, I enjoy playing with him because I enjoy the accuracy, the consistency, but even winning 2v2 with him doesn't feel like a victory as much as a free win...

Why can't you guys actually do something good for BnG??? Why can't you put a little effort in? What the hell happened to the old b2b spirit? You mostly just turned into a bunch of grandads on IRC waving your walking stick at the young ones while doing absolutely NOTHING to actually help something your DAMN NAME says you were born for...

lacoste please don't say "we did plenty of good steps" what u mean is, me and a FEW others in b2b done all the work while the rest of you done nothing, and still had the cheek to moan at me about it, then when I put even more effort in, you let me down, I am sorry for getting fed up and losing my temper and going partially insane but the blame really comes down to the laziness of the members who kept asking me to do stuff then when I do it, they either don't care, didn't show up, or backed out one way or another... How long did you expect the fuse to burn for???

Edit: Oh, and, WHOOPDEE-F**KING-DOO !!!! A long post... Deal with it...

You're comparing two different things. Compare Bng to roping if you must, but not to warming. Warming doesn't compare to bng, it's the complete opposite. It's a form of expression. It's social time. It brings you high. Oh, and we do not use anything other than our hearts to warm it up, there's no mathematical formulas involved.

There was a time where people hosted Bng games in this same nature, were brains took a break from numerical calculations. But not anymore, not under b2b's watch. They like to call it Bng, I see them playing Gunbound.

You don't even embrace all that Bng has to give us. It's not that you never supported things like unanchored bng; it's that you never even bothered to even look. And here we are, every single one of us, hoping the opposing clan doesn't pick Bng because we just don't want to deal with the bitching and the boredom.
