Why do I need to talk to anybody? Where does it say that people playing a video game need to like each other?

To me, this would be fine and it's a great point. I agree. No one has to talk to each other to move on. There can just be a mutual agreement not to foment the drama by not rehashing old shit. That's the moving on part.

And that's not targeted at you or anyone in particular. You just make a great point to reply to. Just stop the personal mudslinging, keep the shit talk to SOCOM or how bad the other team is and I think things will sort themselves out just fine. You and I can kill a deep dish, a wet aged steak, have a few Imperial Stouts, and commit some good ol' fashioned debauchery...

Thats whats puzzling to me. Why Swill feels the need to force feed people into "talking it out" and if you decline you are a "screaming child".

No, people dont need to talk shit out. People are allowed to dislike each other. That has nothing to do with anybody playing a game with each other. Nobody needs to talk things out. And there hasnt been any mudslinging in days and as long as my name doesnt come out of their mouths there wont be any moving forward.

Its a non issue being made into an issue for no reason.

@1UP, Tawok let me know that the reason you got bumped from Discord is because he made some changes to his channel. You need a phone verified account now.

And I quote from him:

"I had a troll use the idiscord command on my stream last night to jump in here and post some foul shit. According to the Discord Admins, using the phone verification requirement is the best way to nip that in the bud.

I can post a moderation log screenshot later to substantiate my claim."

No I know what happened, but I am not getting an app on my phone to talk to a person on discord. There are other ways he could have handled that, he decided to do the more intrusive route.

Roger that...just passing along information.

I don't think you NEED to use the app per se, I think it's just for verification purposes. I may be wrong though as I use both phone and PC.

Again, he just asked someone to reach out to you, so I did...

Yea I didn't realize he had unblocked me on twitter and he got a hold of me on there. I didn't have anything against him for that. I just had no way of getting in contact with him because of that.

Well, not to speak for Swill, but I see his point as well. Not the part about not declining invites and screaming manchildren, mind you, but I'd love it if everyone could move past it and pick up dialogue again, but I know it won't happen. So instead, I'm just looking for that happy medium where there's basically a detente...no need to be buddies, but just stop being full blown at war enemies...

He's right when he says there's been a lot of good talk on Tawok's discord, not even about anything going on. Just...talking about shit. I'd love it if that carried over to everyone and more people came here or the new site (more the new site cuz I like how it's functioning so far). But, at this point, I'll personally just take what I can get...

I have had a few people ask me to delete their accounts over the past week or two.

I am all for free speech and I admit I have been a dick a few times myself, but I caught what I was doing and tried to stop.. If I can do it so can yall, I am probably one of the worst when it comes to wanting to defend myself, which is not what I am telling you guys to not do,, just use a different approach besides name calling and etc.. Cool guys, thanks man!

The problem really is that Swill judges or assumes everything has to go at the pace he wants it to. If it doesnt, he throws a fit. What has he done in this thread besides stir the pot about the whole tawok situation? It wasnt even mentioned until he brought it up. Then he tries getting people to rally against others, as if making people feel like a "outcast" is going to help the situation.

"if you dont wanna talk about things then your a manchild and a brat and the problem!" He hasnt changed Mack and I thoughts on the matter at all by doing this. Junglist, your approach today has been a more effective argument than Swill going on his elitist tirade for the past few days.

Look, lets not kid ourselves here, there has been alot of damage done in the past month or so, from both sides. Just because the other side is willing to sit down and talk, doesnt mean that everyone else in the world is. Again, alot of us have been through this sitting down and talking phase before. While we may be open to it again sometime in the distant future, as of right now we arnt interested in that. People move and work through things at different speeds. That doesnt mean we will be assholes, that doesnt mean we will be dickheads. It means just leave us alone, we leave you alone, all is good.

And just for the record, nobody from their camp has ever approached me about "working it out" so I dont even know how the responsibility falls on me to do so. I havent mentioned any of those people in days and have no intentions of doing so in the future unless provoked.

I dont feel Im being unreasonable at all. I have stated numerous times I have no problem playing with them and would be willing to do so. I dont really see how this should even be an issue.

to be fair I thought we quit the shit back on TRS but I was wrong. you seem to be mad at me for this hidden agenda where I was part of the destruction of TRS with Luke and animal. so I mean the provoked piece is alittle unfair. but it is what it is.

In any case....Its good that people are finally getting away from the shit that makes coming to TRS and now this site a headache. having to almost make a presentation on what was or was not meant by a tweet or a stream or a post gets annoying. hopefully the drama can end....hopefully it can withstand the next WARPIG 5 mine tk round...LMAO

I repeatedly stated it wasnt that big a deal. I assure you Im not mad about anything. As far as the TRS shutdown, its in the rearview. Was it handled poorly? Sure. But its pretty pointless to revisit the issue. Whats done is done.
