As you can see from my post count and don't post here that often nor do I read alot of posts. But sometimes I cruise on over and check things out, lately just to see who has posted their pic.
Anyway....KRG I couldn't argree with you more!!
When I bought this game a couple of years ago, it was because it was a GAME!!! That's right a GAME! I had no idea there would be websites like this one with thousands of posts about every conceiveable topic.
When I came upon this topic and started reading, I just couldn't take it no more and had to post. This topic is one of the reasons I don't read posts here, I swear half the people here just CRAVE attention. I could easily fill this page with names but for space sake I will give you one of the best examples Darkwoor.
If I got sick of playing TFC today and decided I would never play again, do you think I would post that thought here??? Hell no! Why would you guys care, and what makes you think I would care if you quit? I swear with some of you people I don't think your mother held you enough, and with others I think she held you too much. Don't think that I don't have fellings or that I don't like any of you, because if you are your being oversensitve and I can't stand that!!! I like anyone that can give me a challenge on the playing field or make the game fun or better yet amusing.
One last thing....Jux you said your a christian do you think by leaving TFC others might follow relizing their wicked ways? If your a true christian you will do what the God put forth in the Bible and spread the word to non-believers. I can't think of a better opportunity then this, who knows what could happen! as we all know TFC is full of many many different people and as I read some of these weepy posts, many are in need! Your blood and guts complaint doesn't hold up with me because you said your self the Christains path is a rocky one.
Thats my opinion and if you don't like it you can kiss my.....ummmm wouldn't want to offend anyone. |

Jux, the text that you took out of context and quoted me on wasn't aimed at you. I finished my post to you by saying, I am sorry to see you go and I wish you the best". Everything after that was not aimed at you directly. I wasn't trying to return flame.
That being said: Your post was full of a lot of comments that I truly don't think anyone wanted/needed to hear. Telling us that you all of a sudden look down on many of the things we do here just kinda pinched a nerve in me. You have decided that you would rather leave then continue to hang around here and I can respect that. But taking a few pokes at us on your way out was more vindictive than a peaceful farewell. So I took the time to speak a bit about how I feel about people downing TheVille because they do not agree with what goes on here. That is all. |

I only just read this thread, so......
I must say that it is not wrong to be distrustful of everyone you come across for the first time, especially in today's society. Although that is not to say that you don't come to trust people in time, and not after too much time either.
My Opinion: Speak your mind, and you'll suffer. It's happened to myself before (at school anyway), and it's happened to my mother also ("you're fired"). Anyone who punishes those who speak out against them, even though they may have a point, can be considered, in one way or another, right-wing. This, however, applies when a genuine and reasonable opinion is expressed, as opposed to extreme and 'bad' stuff. I'm sure all the reasonable folk out there can tell the difference.
Since the death of my sister, I've come to learn, very rapidly, the true value of keeping quiet in order to remain in the good books of people above you - None. Of course, we all keep schtum for this reason at some point or another, but we also see those who do speak out getting punished. Material values go out the window, but the moral values are usually kept with thoe person speaking, as opposed to the person punishing (Again, there are the numerous, inevitable exceptions for "bad" things).
Anyway, I'm sorry you feel the way you do about TFC and The Ville, Jux, and hope that you do find salvation doing something you enjoy without sacrificing any morals or correctness. However, everyone here should be left to their own devices. After all, it may look violent, but it's all for the sake of a cheap (UK£25 per month for me) thrill, and it's definitely not real.
All the best, Jux.
I'm not gonna look at this thread every 2 hours just for the sake of continuing an argument. I'll look at it again in the next day or two. And if it's locked by then, I sincerely hope no-one has had the audacity to try to continue all this in a new thread.
What I think should happen to this thread - see signature. |

To summarize Jux's views:
Quote: | When I want to cap a man the braincase, I don’t want him to fly into four chucky giblets.
|
Quote: | I have tried thet gib count change and it just isn't the same becuase when a person should blow up they just dissapear.
|
Quote: | The Ville is very non-Christian, as I have found out.
|
Quote: | I may stick around the forums just becuase I like arguing.
|
Quote: | Why is it after Sept 11th the Ville was aflame with pro-american anti-islam posts?
|
I can think of 3,000 good reasons.
Stop stirring the pot for your amusement.
Don't go away mad, just go away.

I'll hold my breath until you post again. _________________

Since this has become the only thread where I can say anything without it being locked
I would just like to add this thought:
Anything can be solved, if you want to.
(I'm saying this, having just gone through one of the hardest hours in my life so far. and yet, everything will be ok.)

I posted my resignation to give ppl some some closure. I have seen sevral posts where someone wondered "What happened to that guy?" Would you not wonder what happened if yor cowroker just suddenly quit, leaving no explanation or trace?

What!?! (bites hand, bites hand, bites hand) I did not quit TFC in hope that others would "realize thier wicked ways" as you suggest. Even though a believer's path is rocky, I don't have to pile more bad stuff into my life. The Bible also speaks against filling yourself with improper things. To me that includes anything that I would not want my mom to know about. She would not want me to go to R rated movies, and I don't. I wouldn't go if she just asked me too, but I don't go anyway because I don't want to get that stuff into my head.
Quote: | I swear half the people here just CRAVE attention |
I don't crave attention, in fact I am really introverted. I will however, stand up for my belifes with much audacity if I have to. Also I know that I will attract attention becuase of how conservative my views are.
Quote: | Jux, the text that you took out of context and quoted me on wasn't aimed at you |
It wasn't? Sorry.

RIGHT ON!
Quote: | Stop stirring the pot for your amusement. |
I am not trying to "stir the pot" just telling you the reasons of my quitting.

I thought that I dispelled that idea when I did my second post on this thread. I enjoy the forums and realize that it would be stupid to leave such a diverse and enjoyable group. Plus, I'm not mad, when did I give you that impression?
Quote: | Telling us that you all of a sudden look down on many of the things we do here just kinda pinched a nerve in me. |
Is this all of a sudden for anyone else? I have said numerous times in the game that I did definitely not agree with cussing and so on. I have voiced my opinions once or twice about sex and whenevr I see a bad spray about porn.
Quote: | I took the time to speak a bit about how I feel about people downing TheVille because they do not agree with what goes on here. |
Did I down the Ville? If you say that my house is not exciting enough becuase I am boring (not that I am saying you do) then I don't take that as an insult, I just realize that you do not agree with my opinion of proper. I hope that I have not insulted the Ville, it is just that my morals are quite a bit more conservative than the Ville's and most people's. I realize that there are people and servers that think that people like me are weak spined and wusses because I don't want to be offensive to people. I do not agree with some of the on goings at the Ville but I certainly do not want to deminish it in any way shape or form. |
