  1. What. Why would you get staff powers in to prevent what is perfectly applicable?
  2. By all means, go ahead and tell them to stop. Are your points valid? Yes. Will you be able to tell people to stop that? Hmm, no. Probably not. Idiots are idiots. Too bad. Man if I were like this I'd be banned lol
  3. <---- You know what this is, Senguie > Coldfreeze in my book.
  4. :o Wahey I just saw that I hit a million views on youtube! .....AAAaaaand still don't have 300 subs lmao
  5. There's a difference between having two different groups who discuss things from their own point of view and having people who are egotistical, arrogant, self-centered and ignorant. It's fine to have two different groups, but it isn't fine to back up your egotistical, arrogant, self-centered and ignorant argument by calling out a different group for being a different group. It's not exactly the label's or the grouping's problem. It's the people who are being arrogant, who see themselves as the center of the world and thinks that everyone else and everything else revolves around them. THAT's the root of the problem here, not calling people casual or competitive. Chances are we went through your post because we realized that.
  6. Tyrone approved. Happy Gilmore, your power is both OP and UP. How about you just switch to being able to create shields any time you want, but you can't do it in a massive scale and also that if hit by a large enough attack it'll instantly disintegrate?
  7. Hmmmmmmmm. Want come CC? Zen OP, sleeps within a warzone.
  8. Or perhaps there's a reason why we label ourselves? In the first place this has never shattered the community, alienated each specific group further from each other. Sure, we have arguments. Sure, the 'competitive' players might go to the 'casual' players and say that they're just complaining about things that kill them, or that they're just asking for things that would give them an edge. Sure, the casual crowd might go to the competitive gamers and say they should cool off, and that it doesn't 'really matter'. Is it illogical, and misunderstood? Yes, of course. We're all "Fans" and there's no point in splitting it up. We've all taken a liking to Halo, enjoying the good's and acknowledging the bad's. But when we raise a point in our discussion, it always helps to be able to back it up not by cementing that 'we are more correct than you because we are X and you are Y', but by ensuring that they know 'this is the viewpoint of me, who is an X'. Sure, maybe we say it differently, but more often than not that will happen because there appears to be an ounce if idiocy involved within the point (E.g. "WHy does incin cannon kill me but not my teammates !???). But differentiating the player base is both helpful in discussions, where you can make sure that everybody knows every different point of view possible. Why? Because let's face it. There's always going to be a difference between the 'MLG' and the 'Casuals'. One side of them are players who hop on matchmaking just to have a blast. I have no idea how they do it but they can go around, get around 10 kills and 20 deaths, and still be "Having fun". Whether it's actual fun or if I'm wrong, I'm not sure, but they aren't going to be the "MLG" side of players who hop on to Arena, or Ranked, or try to bring up their CSR. These are the players who will, in pubs, consistently perform at the top of their pub lobby teams. These are the players who crave competition, who can feel boredom creeping up them in normal matchmaking now that there really isn't much point in playing, since they're going to do good, and the only thing that might happen is they absolutely demolish the other team - or he/she is put in a team full of noobs who still throw the game despite being carried. Casuals might ask for a buff to a gun - simply because they don't know how to use it - while Competitive players might be asking to nerf it because they've seen it used to it's full capability and it's absolutely devastating. It doesn't matter where you are, or what you are, within a long-standing hobby there's going to be a split in the community someplace, somewhere. In gaming there are the 'casuals' who just play for 'teh funzies', the 'competitives' to like to win, who like a challenge. Maybe in Halo we also have the forgers, who might think that 343i should address the Halo 4 Forge ASAP, or the custom gamers, who think 343i failed miserably in custom game options. This is for other games to. MOBA players have craaaazy competitiveness, considering it's a massive international tournament which gives you the largest $$$ prize in eSports, like, ever - but there's a "casual" crowd to. Call of Duty has some of the biggest eSports names and titles - heck, Cod is something you can participate in at this year's Summer X-Games, and will be broadcast on ESPN - but the casual crowd is SOOOOO MASSIVE. Same with sports; the sports pyramid practically cuts it out into sections for you. Foundation, for the people who just start doing a sport, all the way up to Elite, people who are competing in Olympics and World cups and stuff. There's a "Casual" and "Competitive" crowd, and if we can discern it from the few hundred years of sports history, we should be able to know that - no matter what, a community is just gonna split up like that. You can't prevent it; you can say the wording is illogical and meaningless but you can't say the actual split in player base is. Calling the 'competitive' players 'MLG hardcore fans' and calling the casuals, well, 'casual fans' might be absolutely stupid wording once you take it literally, but you can't say that these different 'castes' are useless, because: (tl;dr) 1. They each give a different point of view to the table 2. All together they're just one community anyway.
  9. Yang Xiao Long. The fourth member of team RWBY, and sister of Ruby Rose. Her cheerfulness is unparalleled in Team RWBY, and possibly in all of beacon except by Nora. She's been shown to be sarcastic, humorous, and ready to crack a joke out of anything, and also probably the one most mature in terms of the jokes. We've seen her lure guys for a hook-up only for her to smash them in the face with a super-powered aural punch, grab people's balls and squeeze them - continuously - to get what she wants, and generally beat the crap out of everything. THIS Yang Xiao Long, while obviously not the one i described above, has for some reason taken that same name to use, and thusly Siks may or may not use it as clues. I honestly don't care and have no idea why I typed all that out but since I did you guys should vote Yang - because he's a mafia.
  10. ~ Happy Birthday Twam! ~

  11. If they put the Exo-suit upgrades into multiplayer it'd be pretty interesting, but not only would it rewrite Call of Duty's formula massively - allowing halojumps, movement increases, 3D movement - it'd feel almost like a mix of Call of Duty, Assassins Creed, Halo and Titanfall in one shooter. Grenades, on the other hand, are simple enough. Rather than having a bunch of different grenades, we now pretty much have a single one with multiple 'upgrades' for it to do stuff. Also, news people, can you check your sources to see if the release date is November 4th, 2014? I was playing BO2 today, and the opening pop-up had Treyarch leaving a congratulations for Sledgehammer 'for the announcement of CoD Advanced Warfare (Nov 4)'
  12. LMAO I LIVEEEEE SUCK EEET I vote Yang, simply because he's done too many questionable things and also appeared twice
  13. you both have probably forgotten all the different names I have been so YES All my sins are now free wb yo~
  14. lets be honest The Director is the true mastermind behind the scenes, starting up mafia games and hurling people across subspace portals He brought the game to 343iCF just to mess with us.
  15. Ask Peanut, Biggles and GSD to simply 1v1 you a bunch in octagon.
  16. Call of Duty eSports is gonna be one of the events at this years 2014 X Games at Austin. So tune in on ESPN and you might see highlight reels of CoD players, and you should also tune in for the final match for the gold. Lol. This is pretty cool. Nice to see CoD and gaming get some mainstream love.
