From your last 20 posts as of now, 16 have been about zippo. I think that says enough, don't you?

Oh, dear! I'd better get some more players then

Dmitry, how are you going to decide in the different groups?

One week before I close this cup

I never said you did, sir!
Agreed @ second part, but again: there are plenty of other good players in every respective scheme. Just take your pick.

well d1 about the complaint...

i posted about crash disapper..and say than he has a big problem for doenst show up for 3 weeks...

Yes, you did. Crash didn't. DoH has more members than you and crash and if those other members are inactive, then that means DoH is too small and should have new members.

I think I've posted about that a couple of times

And yeah, ignoring Zippo really is that easy. "Last post by Zippo? Better not click that." "Game reported by Zippo? better not click that." Done!
If you read those thread, that's your own choice.

1st option would be the best.

I completely agree. But if Zippo doesn't change, you still need to consider option 2.

Quote from: Komo on October 18, 2010, 07:21 AM
D1, I wanna ask you something, you say we have an option of ignoring zippo even if he continues to annoy people, but if you have a group of friends, who like to play a sport together lets say for this example football, and you all play competitive because you love the challenge and the pride you feel when you win against good players, and let's say zippo was part of another team, and everytime he beat you he rubs it in your face, not in a joking way, but in a way that really tries to put you down and make you look like a noob, and everytime you win, he still tries to put you down saying it's luck, or he has sore ankle and can't play 100% his best,  and you are a noob and you will still never achieve glory like him with his position in the league, are you trying to tell me this wouldn't eventually make you react?

My reaction would be never to play him again. I do still play worms for the challenge, but if I get annoyed by someone during those games, it's really not worth it to me. There are plenty of other challenging players left to play anyway, so why bother playing with someone who annoys me?

Quote from: Komo on October 18, 2010, 07:21 AM
People like to play against Zippo because he IS a very good player whether anyone wants to admit it or not, and some people like to challenge him and try to beat him and feel proud for themself if they beat him and they feel they have achieved a higher level of skill, but the fact is Zippo can't just shake hands and say well done you played good to beat me, he makes it out as if they don't have any skill and it's just luck when in fact they have worked hard to get good enough to beat him.

Again, this is a choice you're making for yourself. If we ban zippo from TUS, that doesn't mean he's not allowed to play you. If you're in it for the challenge, by all means, continue playing him, even if we ban him. The only consequence would be that you can't report a win against him anymore.

Quote from: Komo on October 18, 2010, 07:21 AM
I know we have option to ignore him but we can't, people want to play him because this is a ladder system and he has good chance of winning points to climb the ladder.

I'm truly puzzled by this, even though it's only one sentence. You can't ignore him because you want to play him? Again, there are plenty of challenging people to play against. If you're only in it for the points, then perhaps there's too much emphasis on competition and too little on fun anyway.

Quote from: Komo on October 18, 2010, 07:21 AM
I think I speak for everyone who plays this game competitively when I say, we would all love to play Zippo and doH to have chance of climbing the ladder without having to put up with all the crap, we would like him to say good game and well done and mean it if we beat him.

Which is why I continually point him towards that. The big difference is that such posts hold very little weight if people are constantly bitching about zippo because that, too, shows immense disrespect (regardless of whether it was deserved or not)

Quote from: Komo on October 18, 2010, 07:21 AM
Zippo, you have a rare talent of being VERY good at all schemes, if you keep spitting on your opponents eventually everyone WILL ignore you, and you will lose your talent because you will have no one to play against, you should take responsibility of being so good and use it to your advantage and help other players, give them advice without pointing out how good you are, congratulate players if they beat you.

Zippo, a real player is one who has the talent and skill and doesn't abuse it, you obviously love this game, why don't you stop being a kid and become part of the community and be our friend instead of our enemy.

Zippo, mark these words. They could be the difference between people respecting you and people completely ignoring you. Don't argue against them. There are a LOT of players here who are saying the exact same thing and if you're the only one who disagrees with a certain statement, that means you're probably wrong.

@ nino: We did mute him once for a couple of weeks, remember? The only thing that changed is that the bitching had a different subject. I don't see how muting him against would change that. You're just looking for a fight with Zippo, just like beer. And all you're accomplishing with it is frustrating yourself.

We're gonna need more players if we want to get this thing going
Cueshark! you forgot to join!

Quote from: ZiPpO on October 17, 2010, 10:04 PM
4) guys like those stop to insult me and zippo change.

That's the same as picking 3, zippo. Very unfortunate.
Same goes for you, Ray, very unfortunate. Someone who doesn't want to be annoyed would've picked 2.

i don't smoke weed, ray and if it weren't for this constant complaining, I would've been ignoring zippo just fine.

Quote from: franz on October 17, 2010, 09:20 PM
everyone relax.  it's just zippo's style, the sarcastic comments, the taunting.  i'm sure smok can defend himself if he really wants to, but nah, he says a playful jab "ye zip , u re the number one  "

Zippo's style is very unstylish and I think Cueshark is correct in his post.
I also think people should 1) relax 2) stop looking at threads called "Game #41538, Reported by ZiPpO" if they don't want to see "Zippo pollute TUS" 3) stop playing him if they don't like him.

A couple things could happen.
1) zippo changes and people will slowly get over his reputation.
2) zippo doesn't change, the TUS community will ignore him every possible way and at some point he'll have no more games to play and no one to talk to.
3) zippo doesn't change, the TUS community continues what it's doing now and it'll continue to be like this.

Take your pick.

rok who cares if deadline is some days over right now, why cant u put the new one deadline? free win in playoffs are lame lol

Because they're deadlines. I'd tell you to look it up, but instead, just click here

Quote from: beer on October 17, 2010, 08:08 PM
u're the lame..
why the f@#! mod let u guys complain so much??? u complain so much for or mother/father?! they let u?
maners kid

I wouldn't be surprised if you have made more posts with complaints than crash and Zippo combined. I like how you claim moral authority despite this though.

There are a couple of really simple steps to avoid having to do with zippo
1) don't play zippo
2) don't check games/game comments with zippo in it.

As a consequence, there's no need to post about zippo which helps in not having to deal with zippo.
If zippo were the only one behaving like this, it would be a whole different deal, but it's a pretty big bunch of people. For some reason, people want drama here and the strangely positive response to Biffleur shows exactly that. Zippo got muted for a couple of weeks and then we get posts about how boring it is here. Not only that, Shyguy and avirex find it amusing to provoke Komo with their muppet posts and of course Komo lets himself be provoked. There's a reason people keep posting in complaint threads they have nothing to do with.

I'm not saying zippo isn't at fault. I'm saying that you should look in the mirror and look at what you're doing. Even if it's just to prove that you can do something that zippo can't.

And for the record, if you're going away while you know there are deadlines, then you should post about it before te deadline is there. First you let people wait for someone they are expecting and then you want them to do you a favour? It just doesn't work like that.

i NEVER play fun games

If there's anything I've noticed about discussing with you, Zippo, is that you're entirely not bothered about facts (though admittedly, you're not the only one). This makes discussing things with you entirely pointless, which makes this thread entirely pointless.

cFc vs DoH today

These are our open games at the moment that haven't got dates assigned yet:
season 12, crash vs Dibz, October 30th 5PM GMT
season 13, daiNa vs Dibz and ArtiC vs Madden. November 6th 7PM GMT for both games.
season 14: crash vs Dibz, November 13th 5PM GMT
cFc vs CKC, October 30th at 7PM GMT
season 15: mm vs cFc, November 20th 7PM GMT (though could be a later time, please respond if you prefer later)
DoH vs CF, November 20th at 7PM GMT.

On another note, the TNL season 5 playoffs have been cancelled due to inactivity. It looks like TNL will be replaced by TEL anyway.
Free league season 1 is cancelled because there's really only one active player in there.

Free league season 7: evil & xLo have been kicked because they're not active on TUS anymore. Doubletime has been kicked because he's been banned.
This leaves lacoste vs Dmitry in the quearter finals to be played: October 30th 5PM GMT.

nt @ english!
