RpTheHotrod Posted April 18, 2002 Share Posted April 18, 2002 Here I am, fighting in a CTF map...and I kill this one guy. He then says I suck and have no skill. I said I was the one who killed him, and he says I'm not really that good. Then I say, fine, you and me...duel. He says it's a CTF map and he just wants to go after the flag. I call him a chicken, and he finally agrees. I kicked his butt 100% of the fights for that map. The next map, he says I suck cause I only depend on drain (which I only use to drain power so they can't grip/push/pull) and lightning. I say fine, duel me....no lightning/drain. He agrees. I kicked his butt. Then he says I'm cheap cause I use saber-throw (which was 3 times during the fight) I said fine, duel me. No force period. Killed him again he did kill me twice using weapons though after this (while I was running back to base with flag) Next map, he says I'm cheap cause I use the saber-side-spin. I say fine...NO SABER. I keep killing him over and over, but this time using ONLY kick. He finally says "hmmmm, you're gotten better the last time I played you" (which was, last map. Never met before). I keep killing him, then he says "Man, when did you get better than me?" I said "I didn't. I already was". I ended up telling him he wasn't worth going into "all-skill" mode. He then said, the game sucks, that's why he was losing. I told him, if he didn't like it, leave. Next map, kept killing him, and he said he was jinxed (jynxed? Sp?), and having bad luck...and left the server. He went through just about every single "You're Cheap! in the game. Only ones he left out was the ones I never used (heavy stance special attack/push/pull/grip/etc) and totally got wiped out...but in the end, he's still, in his little mind, "less-than-cheap" than me. They never lose in their little eyes. btw, this was NO newbie...that was the sad thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ACGe0rge Posted April 18, 2002 Share Posted April 18, 2002 I dont get some people. It seems that they cant stand to lose and figure the when they get beat, the other person somehow cheated. I've gotten fairly good at saber combat and have really dominated some games. Threer have been other games where I really got my butt kicked no matter what I did. People need to understand that EVERYTHING in this game can be countered whether it's grip, drain, saber techniques, and even weapons. They just cant understand that they might not be as good as they think they are and need to learn how to counter these things. Instead they figure since they dont know how to beat certain moves that those moves are somehow unfair so the person using them must be "cheap." I've only had one experience where someone called me a name because I used his own technique agains him. He called me "gay" so Imade a point of going after him. Unfortunatelly, he logged off after I killed him a second time, so i didnt get a chance to really burst his bubble. I dont know whay some people get so upset. This is just a game after all. If you keep getting your butt kicked, ask people for suggestion on how to play better. Most will be nice enough to give you some hints. Otherwise, just experiment until you figure out a better way to handle certain situations. No body likes a poor loser. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope that you feel good about your self..you've become the thing you hate...Take your fathers place ... by my side Just because he mad fun of someone (who he didnt mention by name by the way) doesnt make him somehow as bad as the guy who called him cheap. He was just pointing out how rediculous some people can be when they lose. It would be different if there were only a couple of people like that, but they are all over the place. IMHO if someone kicks your butt regularly it's because they are a better player than you are. The only exceptions are when someone actually cheats by using things like the invisible/hands only skin. I hope everyone out there who feels they need to call someone names or accuse them of the dreaded "cheap move" when they lose should read this post first so they know how childish they sound. MAybe then they will have a better attitude when playing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StormHammer Posted April 20, 2002 Share Posted April 20, 2002 I don't understand the mentality, personally. If I get killed and the other guy looks good doing it, I just say...'Nice'...i.e., nice move, etc. Or if I get pushed off a ledge, I make it into a joke on me...'Can't fly...' or 'Forgot my wings...' It's all just part of the fun, IMO. But then...I play for fun, and not necessarily to win. It's nice to win a match (especially on my sucky 56k connection), but I invariably lose the next match. Life goes on. Some people seem to have forgotten why games were designed in the first place...for fun. I had someone insult me too on a server, because I killed them. Then they came after me exclusively to kill me back a few times. Talk about a grudge...so I just did the same back to him/her/it* (delete as appropriate) and that player left the server soon after. It seems some players like nothing less than having a dose of their own medicine. What's the point of gaming online unless you're prepared to get killed? I mean, there are a lot of damned good players out there, and there's always someone better than you waiting around the corner. Just doesn't make sense to me....
