He's probably not seen it yet. He is an admin. Be patient.

he seen it. I can see the time he last read the conversation. but OK, i'll wait a bit more

There is only so much you can discuss with someone who has only his own truth and is ignorant to the opinions of others. I already provided explanations and my opinions, but you are just constantly going on in a circle. Sorry, but I am not really interested in going heads up against a wall. As you are clearly showcasing through your comments, what you enjoy the most is provocation rather than normal discussion. Believe it or not, you are not the only person and thing in this universe and just because I did not reply to you instantly in a minute does not mean I am ignoring you. I am a volunteer and if I have other personal or work related things to do than sorry, you will have to wait. And as far as I know, you also did not reply to my messages instantly so I don't know what issue are you trying to make out of this.

 

I don't think any of the forum trolls come to the newspaper section but you'll have one now

 

Pretty much sums up your attitude. Let me just remind you that for such people we have forum mods here.

you are the one driving it around it in circles. you keep telling me you already answered and ask me to read again when you haven't.

To be fair they have answered. There are still people who read and enjoy guides. Why should these guides be scrapped just because you think it is an eyesore? You may judge them to be not as popular as other pieces but that doesn't mean noone reads it/likes it. Are those people irrelevant?

 

What are you hoping to achieve? Get rid of guides then a few weeks later come back and try to get rid of the next most unpopular category? The Newspaper is diverse. There's something for everyone. That doesn't mean you have to enjoy everything you see. Just don't read it if you don't want to. Others will. It's not affecting you.

we are discussing why he removed my post in PM. that's what I'm talking to him about.

 

I adress further concerns in my post which he hid. and those he haven't answered. But his reason for hiding that post was that he already answered everything i said in that post.

 

Of course you can't know about that because you can't see that post.

What a way to try to twist things. I already told you that reason for hiding the post wasn't that, but the fact that it was instigating fights on the forum.

[Magenta 5,165]

Hey Guido, fighting and accusing and flaming isn't going to work. Let's sit down and have a civil debate.

what a way to twist things such that it seems as though I'm the one twistingthings now

 

and i already explained to you how it wasn't

[GuidoFawkes 2,361]

Hey Guido, fighting and accusing and flaming isn't going to work. Let's sit down and have a civil debate.

 

And if Flexoo can ignore your pleas and PMs, why can't you ignore the guides?

i tried to be reasonable but what did he do? hide the post and give a stupid excuse

Nothing was ignored.

It's stupid to you because you think you can say whatever you want and justify it as "your opinion". But the fact is that if we let everyone do whatever they want because it's "their opinion", we would soon end up in chaos.

[Magenta 5,165]

Hypothetical :x.

then how excatly am i supposed to give critism without you thinking I am trying to start a fight? 

 

Just say it outright that I can't give critisms because it will hurt your puppy feelings.

The same way every other player is giving criticism. Respectably and making it constructive. Not by insulting or accusing certain writing to be "lazy". You continue arguing but I'm not sure what you hope to gain. Do you think if you argue hard and long enough, everyone will admit they were wrong and you were right?

 

The only thing that will happen is you'll get a ban. So stop please.

Peace,

you see the ignore button?

[GrandExecutioner 1,403]

I do not wish to ignore you. But I do not wish to spam either.

 

I just gave my input.

i can't remember if i did mention them being lazy in the post he hid but i really don't think i did...

[Quarks 2,255]

I believe that you did, but the intention of the post was to start a flame war, which is why he hid it. Guido, I'm going to ask if we can both agree to end this debate, as no one is getting anything productive out of this. We have been arguing about what we have been arguing about for the last page or so, and there is no point in continuing it, so let's put an end to this and enjoy the parts of the paper we enjoy, and be fine that there are parts we don't like as much.

[Hex 11,520]

That's enough, no namecalling from now on or else you will be reported to the appropriate moderators. Your suggestion has been duly noted and will be under consideration the next time we hold a poll - it doesn't need to go through multiple pages of arguments in order to count. Any further replies on this matter will be hidden!

 

If you have any more suggestions, please use the correct topic: Newspaper Suggestions!

:unsure: I don't think so at all tbh. I'm not a huge fan of kit reviews same as you, but I don't think anyone should play down the time and effort needed to write them. I've tried my hand at some, and they aren't something a lazy person would do lol. Anyways, our goal is to have a wide variety of pieces each issue to satisfy everyone. That's why we have the absolutely useless more humorous pieces by Rabin and myself, along with the practical articles by Hexed and LOLKILLER. :)

In that case, can I ask the news people to review M1/M2 kits too so I know what to buy?

[C.O.N.Q.U.E.R.O.R 3,845]

I'll probably be doing one of those within the next 2 months, why you need multy newspaper reporters to do it I'm better :ph34r:

While waiting you can still read this M2 Product Kit review (classified under Guide in the Newspaper archives): The Mid Ranker's Handbook: Product Kits

 

It's about M2 kits. I thought they were more but can't find any. There is many others kit reviews in the Amateur Writing section but the qualities varies: http://en.tankiforum.com/index.php?showforum=286

 

And also you can ask and discuss here: Let's Discuss Product Kits

[Hex 11,520]

Actually, thinking about doing those, maybe next Issue? Till then you can read the articles linked by Viking above.
