Estoy Aqui members are so far above the general populace that we can cast Dragon Knight and Templar skills at the same time.

Either way, your opinion that 1v1's prove anything in this game speaks for itself, especially when they were most likely running a group/aoe build.
Btw, care to at least give your ign if you're going to passive aggressively call someone out?
1v1 does prove things in this game. You just choose to ignore that aspect if the game (which is fine).
No, it does not. But as GM of a dueling guild, BRAIDAS wouldn't expect you to say otherwise.
Btw: Responding to my thread? multiple times?!?!? by your def you must be stalking me....eeeewwwww....(BRAIDAS hopes you understand he is mocking you, yes?)
Let's try to be civil here for once.
1v1 happens across cyrodiil as does group vs group and Zerg vs Zerg. To some it matters more than others.
That doesn't mean it is irrelevant or not measurable. I'm not talking about dueling, I'm referring to the spontaneous 1v1 runs that people have.
Do they have a contribution towards the over all war efforts? Not even close.
Are they measurable encounters that require a degree of focus/skill in order to win them? Yes.
Is it a measure of skill when one or both of you are geared for fighting large groups? No.
Are they worth investing time into b/c of how little they matter? No.
BRAIDAS doesn't know what you're doing to be so stupid, but it's working.
Duels in this game come down to counters. Say you fight someone who beats you, you make an adjustment to counter them and win. They, in turn, counter your counter, and so on. Perhaps at some point you have your builds worked out against each other and are both of equal skill, now the fight probably takes 10 mins and comes down to whoever makes a mistake. No skill, and boring as faaawwwwkkkkkk.
Game wasn't designed for duels, doesn't support duels in any way, and gives no value to them. As far as BRAIDAS is concerned, they are no more relevant in PvP than an RP event. If you can get everyone in Cyrodiil to line up in a single-file line and duel your way to taking keeps, then we'll talk.
You keep talking about Duels. You're on the wrong page here.
I'm not talking about duels. I'm talking about 1v1 run ins in a open pvp zone. You say that in a populated campaign they rarely happen, that isn't true.
They don't happen if you are with a group the entire time. If you run around solo you can pick off reinforcements and find plenty of 1v1 encounters. If two players who are specced for group run into each other, it still is going to take skill/management of resources for one player to beat the other consistently.
Sure, if a 1v1 specced player runs into a group spec, he should be able to beat the group spec. But even then, if the group specced player is experienced in 1v1 he can manage to out play the 1v1 player.
To say that 1v1 is as irrelevant as a RP event is just plain ignorant to both solo pvpers and RPers.
Just because people don't have the same pvp playstyle as you doesn't make it immeasurable or irrelevant.
Lol this post proves you have no idea what goes on in alliance war.
9/10 times I run into someone 1v1, I will jump up and down on purpose so I can die and rez at a forward camp where I am actually needed.
1v1 has almost no value in alliance war in this game.
You are wrong sypher. Accept it.
1v1 doesn't contribute to the war efforts, we already got that part down.
It's still a measurable skill and requires some level of PvP knowledge to come out on top consistently.
You guys choose to pretend 1v1 happens in some imaginary land that you will never visit. I don't blame you, I wouldn't play a sport I sucked at either.

You are truly delusional. It seems any cognitive dissonance alters your memory and you forget what you literally just said. Let me remind you.
You literally said, 1v1 in Cyrodiil has meaning because it tests skill regardless of build or whatever.
I'm telling you no. It really doesn't. Because any relevant player welcomes the 1v1 as a bloodgate.
Honestly, most of us pray for gankers to help us bloodgate to the real fight.
So, if you ran into me, while I'm running from Fort Ash to Nikel to bloodgate. I will stand still, and let you kill me, so I can go to my forward camp where my team needs me.
And in case your little mind got lost in the logic, lemme lay it out again.
1v1 happens in Cyrodiil.
It proves skill and has meaning.
But any decent player wants to die.
So if they're smart they won't fight back.
The faster you kill them, the faster they can take a forward camp to a relevant fight.
Therefore, 1v1 has zero meaning.
You. Are. Wrong. Accept it.

Most 1v1s I'd be up for the fight.
But if I'm running with my group and I have a place to be / idiot faction emergency with no suicide port, I would stand still to the melee.

Do they have a contribution towards the over all war efforts? Not even close.
Are they measurable encounters that require a degree of focus/skill in order to win them? Yes.
Is it a measure of skill when one or both of you are geared for fighting large groups? No.
Are they worth investing time into b/c of how little they matter? No.
BRAIDAS doesn't know what you're doing to be so stupid, but it's working.
Duels in this game come down to counters. Say you fight someone who beats you, you make an adjustment to counter them and win. They, in turn, counter your counter, and so on. Perhaps at some point you have your builds worked out against each other and are both of equal skill, now the fight probably takes 10 mins and comes down to whoever makes a mistake. No skill, and boring as faaawwwwkkkkkk.
Game wasn't designed for duels, doesn't support duels in any way, and gives no value to them. As far as BRAIDAS is concerned, they are no more relevant in PvP than an RP event. If you can get everyone in Cyrodiil to line up in a single-file line and duel your way to taking keeps, then we'll talk.
You keep talking about Duels. You're on the wrong page here.
I'm not talking about duels. I'm talking about 1v1 run ins in a open pvp zone. You say that in a populated campaign they rarely happen, that isn't true.
They don't happen if you are with a group the entire time. If you run around solo you can pick off reinforcements and find plenty of 1v1 encounters. If two players who are specced for group run into each other, it still is going to take skill/management of resources for one player to beat the other consistently.
Sure, if a 1v1 specced player runs into a group spec, he should be able to beat the group spec. But even then, if the group specced player is experienced in 1v1 he can manage to out play the 1v1 player.
To say that 1v1 is as irrelevant as a RP event is just plain ignorant to both solo pvpers and RPers.
Just because people don't have the same pvp playstyle as you doesn't make it immeasurable or irrelevant.
Lol this post proves you have no idea what goes on in alliance war.
9/10 times I run into someone 1v1, I will jump up and down on purpose so I can die and rez at a forward camp where I am actually needed.
1v1 has almost no value in alliance war in this game.
You are wrong sypher. Accept it.
1v1 doesn't contribute to the war efforts, we already got that part down.
It's still a measurable skill and requires some level of PvP knowledge to come out on top consistently.
You guys choose to pretend 1v1 happens in some imaginary land that you will never visit. I don't blame you, I wouldn't play a sport I sucked at either.
You are truly delusional. It seems any cognitive dissonance alters your memory and you forget what you literally just said. Let me remind you.
You literally said, 1v1 in Cyrodiil has meaning because it tests skill regardless of build or whatever.
I'm telling you no. It really doesn't. Because any relevant player welcomes the 1v1 as a bloodgate.
Honestly, most of us pray for gankers to help us bloodgate to the real fight.
So, if you ran into me, while I'm running from Fort Ash to Nikel to bloodgate. I will stand still, and let you kill me, so I can go to my forward camp where my team needs me.
And in case your little mind got lost in the logic, lemme lay it out again.
1v1 happens in Cyrodiil.
It proves skill and has meaning.
But any decent player wants to die.
So if they're smart they won't fight back.
The faster you kill them, the faster they can take a forward camp to a relevant fight.
Therefore, 1v1 has zero meaning.
You. Are. Wrong. Accept it.
I rarely EVER attack a player who just lets me kill them. 99.9% of my run ins fight back.
Tell me what you plan to do IF they make blood porting obsolete?
You better start taking the long routes at that point. Don't want to end up being AP fodder...
LMAO.

Either way, your opinion that 1v1's prove anything in this game speaks for itself, especially when they were most likely running a group/aoe build.
Btw, care to at least give your ign if you're going to passive aggressively call someone out?
1v1 does prove things in this game. You just choose to ignore that aspect if the game (which is fine).
No, it does not. But as GM of a dueling guild, BRAIDAS wouldn't expect you to say otherwise.

I guarantee if you jump an organized guild player, and the call has been made to bloodgate to X asap, that he or she will be dying as fast as possible, most of the times with equilibrium.
Edit: that being said, I hate freaking bloodgating because it makes these small scale encounters pointless. I wish they would do something about forward camps ASAP
Most 1v1s I'd be up for the fight.
But if I'm running with my group and I have a place to be / idiot faction emergency with no suicide port, I would stand still to the melee.

And no, I'll just put some 1v1 skills into my bar.
The only time I load up 1v1 skills is when I'm running somewhere to drop a camp and I can't afford to die.
I didn't say all 1v1 is obsolete. Only most of it. So your argument that 1v1 has meaning in Cyrodiil is wrong. It has very little meaning.
And again, you might be hopeless. I can't tell if it's an issue with your reading ability, or your comprehension.
But I clearly state that I wish they would fix bloodgating and get rid of it so that small skirmishes, and 1v1's could gain meaning.
Atm, it's worthless.

I have jumped alacrity players in hopesfire and wabbajack, as well as inthornblade. I have jumped some No Mercy players... and countless other guild players I am sure I did not name, almost all of them actually fought back, and tried to stay alive. you are just having a grudge war with sypher and are looking for a crack to ooze through.
I do agree about the Fc thing and your disapproval of bloodgating. the transit system may as well no exist at this point. something needs to be done.

Either way, your opinion that 1v1's prove anything in this game speaks for itself, especially when they were most likely running a group/aoe build.
Btw, care to at least give your ign if you're going to passive aggressively call someone out?
1v1 does prove things in this game. You just choose to ignore that aspect if the game (which is fine).
No, it does not. But as GM of a dueling guild, BRAIDAS wouldn't expect you to say otherwise.
Btw: Responding to my thread? multiple times?!?!? by your def you must be stalking me....eeeewwwww....(BRAIDAS hopes you understand he is mocking you, yes?)
Let's try to be civil here for once.
1v1 happens across cyrodiil as does group vs group and Zerg vs Zerg. To some it matters more than others.
That doesn't mean it is irrelevant or not measurable. I'm not talking about dueling, I'm referring to the spontaneous 1v1 runs that people have.
Do they have a contribution towards the over all war efforts? Not even close.
Are they measurable encounters that require a degree of focus/skill in order to win them? Yes.
Is it a measure of skill when one or both of you are geared for fighting large groups? No.
Are they worth investing time into b/c of how little they matter? No.
BRAIDAS doesn't know what you're doing to be so stupid, but it's working.
Duels in this game come down to counters. Say you fight someone who beats you, you make an adjustment to counter them and win. They, in turn, counter your counter, and so on. Perhaps at some point you have your builds worked out against each other and are both of equal skill, now the fight probably takes 10 mins and comes down to whoever makes a mistake. No skill, and boring as faaawwwwkkkkkk.
Game wasn't designed for duels, doesn't support duels in any way, and gives no value to them. As far as BRAIDAS is concerned, they are no more relevant in PvP than an RP event. If you can get everyone in Cyrodiil to line up in a single-file line and duel your way to taking keeps, then we'll talk.
You keep talking about Duels. You're on the wrong page here.
I'm not talking about duels. I'm talking about 1v1 run ins in a open pvp zone. You say that in a populated campaign they rarely happen, that isn't true.
They don't happen if you are with a group the entire time. If you run around solo you can pick off reinforcements and find plenty of 1v1 encounters. If two players who are specced for group run into each other, it still is going to take skill/management of resources for one player to beat the other consistently.
Sure, if a 1v1 specced player runs into a group spec, he should be able to beat the group spec. But even then, if the group specced player is experienced in 1v1 he can manage to out play the 1v1 player.
To say that 1v1 is as irrelevant as a RP event is just plain ignorant to both solo pvpers and RPers.
Just because people don't have the same pvp playstyle as you doesn't make it immeasurable or irrelevant.
Lol this post proves you have no idea what goes on in alliance war.
9/10 times I run into someone 1v1, I will jump up and down on purpose so I can die and rez at a forward camp where I am actually needed.
1v1 has almost no value in alliance war in this game.
You are wrong sypher. Accept it.
1v1 doesn't contribute to the war efforts, we already got that part down.
It's still a measurable skill and requires some level of PvP knowledge to come out on top consistently.
You guys choose to pretend 1v1 happens in some imaginary land that you will never visit. I don't blame you, I wouldn't play a sport I sucked at either.
You are truly delusional. It seems any cognitive dissonance alters your memory and you forget what you literally just said. Let me remind you.
You literally said, 1v1 in Cyrodiil has meaning because it tests skill regardless of build or whatever.
I'm telling you no. It really doesn't. Because any relevant player welcomes the 1v1 as a bloodgate.
Honestly, most of us pray for gankers to help us bloodgate to the real fight.
So, if you ran into me, while I'm running from Fort Ash to Nikel to bloodgate. I will stand still, and let you kill me, so I can go to my forward camp where my team needs me.
And in case your little mind got lost in the logic, lemme lay it out again.
1v1 happens in Cyrodiil.
It proves skill and has meaning.
But any decent player wants to die.
So if they're smart they won't fight back.
The faster you kill them, the faster they can take a forward camp to a relevant fight.
Therefore, 1v1 has zero meaning.
You. Are. Wrong. Accept it.
I rarely EVER attack a player who just lets me kill them. 99.9% of my run ins fight back.
Tell me what you plan to do IF they make blood porting obsolete?
You better start taking the long routes at that point. Don't want to end up being AP fodder...
LMAO.
And no, I'll just put some 1v1 skills into my bar.
The only time I load up 1v1 skills is when I'm running somewhere to drop a camp and I can't afford to die.
I didn't say all 1v1 is obsolete. Only most of it. So your argument that 1v1 has meaning in Cyrodiil is wrong. It has very little meaning.
And again, you might be hopeless. I can't tell if it's an issue with your reading ability, or your comprehension.
But I clearly state that I wish they would fix bloodgating and get rid of it so that small skirmishes, and 1v1's could gain meaning.
Atm, it's worthless.Most 1v1s I'd be up for the fight.
But if I'm running with my group and I have a place to be / idiot faction emergency with no suicide port, I would stand still to the melee.

All I'm saying is that 1v1 is a skill that is measurable and there is a degree of pvp skill in order to win these encounters (which do happen).
Braidas has compared 1v1 to whoever can AFK the longest, or whoever can stand in oil the longest. That's just a pitiful bandaid he is attempting to place on his lack of skill or interest in 1v1s.

Either way, your opinion that 1v1's prove anything in this game speaks for itself, especially when they were most likely running a group/aoe build.
Btw, care to at least give your ign if you're going to passive aggressively call someone out?
1v1 does prove things in this game. You just choose to ignore that aspect if the game (which is fine).
No, it does not. But as GM of a dueling guild, BRAIDAS wouldn't expect you to say otherwise.
Btw: Responding to my thread? multiple times?!?!? by your def you must be stalking me....eeeewwwww....(BRAIDAS hopes you understand he is mocking you, yes?)
Let's try to be civil here for once.
1v1 happens across cyrodiil as does group vs group and Zerg vs Zerg. To some it matters more than others.
That doesn't mean it is irrelevant or not measurable. I'm not talking about dueling, I'm referring to the spontaneous 1v1 runs that people have.
Do they have a contribution towards the over all war efforts? Not even close.
Are they measurable encounters that require a degree of focus/skill in order to win them? Yes.
Is it a measure of skill when one or both of you are geared for fighting large groups? No.
Are they worth investing time into b/c of how little they matter? No.
BRAIDAS doesn't know what you're doing to be so stupid, but it's working.
Duels in this game come down to counters. Say you fight someone who beats you, you make an adjustment to counter them and win. They, in turn, counter your counter, and so on. Perhaps at some point you have your builds worked out against each other and are both of equal skill, now the fight probably takes 10 mins and comes down to whoever makes a mistake. No skill, and boring as faaawwwwkkkkkk.
Game wasn't designed for duels, doesn't support duels in any way, and gives no value to them. As far as BRAIDAS is concerned, they are no more relevant in PvP than an RP event. If you can get everyone in Cyrodiil to line up in a single-file line and duel your way to taking keeps, then we'll talk.
You keep talking about Duels. You're on the wrong page here.
I'm not talking about duels. I'm talking about 1v1 run ins in a open pvp zone. You say that in a populated campaign they rarely happen, that isn't true.
They don't happen if you are with a group the entire time. If you run around solo you can pick off reinforcements and find plenty of 1v1 encounters. If two players who are specced for group run into each other, it still is going to take skill/management of resources for one player to beat the other consistently.
Sure, if a 1v1 specced player runs into a group spec, he should be able to beat the group spec. But even then, if the group specced player is experienced in 1v1 he can manage to out play the 1v1 player.
To say that 1v1 is as irrelevant as a RP event is just plain ignorant to both solo pvpers and RPers.
Just because people don't have the same pvp playstyle as you doesn't make it immeasurable or irrelevant.
Lol this post proves you have no idea what goes on in alliance war.
9/10 times I run into someone 1v1, I will jump up and down on purpose so I can die and rez at a forward camp where I am actually needed.
1v1 has almost no value in alliance war in this game.
You are wrong sypher. Accept it.
1v1 doesn't contribute to the war efforts, we already got that part down.
It's still a measurable skill and requires some level of PvP knowledge to come out on top consistently.
You guys choose to pretend 1v1 happens in some imaginary land that you will never visit. I don't blame you, I wouldn't play a sport I sucked at either.
You are truly delusional. It seems any cognitive dissonance alters your memory and you forget what you literally just said. Let me remind you.
You literally said, 1v1 in Cyrodiil has meaning because it tests skill regardless of build or whatever.
I'm telling you no. It really doesn't. Because any relevant player welcomes the 1v1 as a bloodgate.
Honestly, most of us pray for gankers to help us bloodgate to the real fight.
So, if you ran into me, while I'm running from Fort Ash to Nikel to bloodgate. I will stand still, and let you kill me, so I can go to my forward camp where my team needs me.
And in case your little mind got lost in the logic, lemme lay it out again.
1v1 happens in Cyrodiil.
It proves skill and has meaning.
But any decent player wants to die.
So if they're smart they won't fight back.
The faster you kill them, the faster they can take a forward camp to a relevant fight.
Therefore, 1v1 has zero meaning.
You. Are. Wrong. Accept it.
I rarely EVER attack a player who just lets me kill them. 99.9% of my run ins fight back.
Tell me what you plan to do IF they make blood porting obsolete?
You better start taking the long routes at that point. Don't want to end up being AP fodder...
LMAO.
And no, I'll just put some 1v1 skills into my bar.
The only time I load up 1v1 skills is when I'm running somewhere to drop a camp and I can't afford to die.
I didn't say all 1v1 is obsolete. Only most of it. So your argument that 1v1 has meaning in Cyrodiil is wrong. It has very little meaning.
And again, you might be hopeless. I can't tell if it's an issue with your reading ability, or your comprehension.
But I clearly state that I wish they would fix bloodgating and get rid of it so that small skirmishes, and 1v1's could gain meaning.
Atm, it's worthless.Most 1v1s I'd be up for the fight.
But if I'm running with my group and I have a place to be / idiot faction emergency with no suicide port, I would stand still to the melee.
Exactly. Any smart player does this to help his faction or team.Sypherpkub17_ESO wrote: »Sypherpkub17_ESO wrote: »Sypherpkub17_ESO wrote: »Do they happen often in largely populated campaigns?

You added that bit about blood parting after I made my comment.
I never argued that 1v1 meant anything towards the overall war effort. (Maybe you need to asses your comprehension skills)
All I'm saying is that 1v1 is a skill that is measurable and there is a degree of pvp skill in order to win these encounters (which do happen).
Braidas has compared 1v1 to whoever can AFK the longest, or whoever can stand in oil the longest. That's just a pitiful bandaid he is attempting to place on his lack of skill or interest in 1v1s.
Question:
Who cares what Braidas said about it? Why bother interjecting?
Believe me, I wouldn't care if he didn't constantly attempt at discrediting my work on every thread I've created relating to solo pvp.
When presented with the opportunity, I'll prove his reasoning wrong for the sake of debate and just because he makes it too easy.

If I am Johann Sebastian Bach I don't need people to like what I produce for it to be of excellent quality. It's a hyperbolic comparison, sure. But your constant fretting over people not liking your production or play is what attracts people to troll the utter crap out of you. You bring it on yourself. You either lack the mental faculty to realize this, your narcissism disallows you from ignoring petty jabs, or you subconsciously accept the venom while consciously compensating with your various responses.
If you didn't like the treatment you're getting you should have shut up about it weeks ago.
For flip sake, I just wanted to see 1vX Templar video.

I honestly would love to be cool with Hova in particular. I tried making amends with him once, unfortunately he wasn't too open minded.
As for the petty jabs and obvious trolling that goes around, those give me pleasure on multiple levels.

I put on my hard headed egotistical persona and just watch the moths flock to the light.
This drama and bickering is what makes it 'fun'
I would take it as a bad sign if all I received was positive comments and praise. Just my perspective.
Edit: As shallow/naive that sounds. It's the sad truth. As long as my true friends / people who know me on a personal level understand my true values, then I don't mind pissing off some trolls/haters if it helps me.

9/10 times I run into someone 1v1, I will jump up and down on purpose so I can die and rez at a forward camp where I am actually needed.
1v1 has almost no value in alliance war in this game.
You are wrong sypher. Accept it.
1v1 doesn't contribute to the war efforts, we already got that part down.
It's still a measurable skill and requires some level of PvP knowledge to come out on top consistently.
You guys choose to pretend 1v1 happens in some imaginary land that you will never visit. I don't blame you, I wouldn't play a sport I sucked at either.
You are truly delusional. It seems any cognitive dissonance alters your memory and you forget what you literally just said. Let me remind you.
You literally said, 1v1 in Cyrodiil has meaning because it tests skill regardless of build or whatever.
I'm telling you no. It really doesn't. Because any relevant player welcomes the 1v1 as a bloodgate.
Honestly, most of us pray for gankers to help us bloodgate to the real fight.
So, if you ran into me, while I'm running from Fort Ash to Nikel to bloodgate. I will stand still, and let you kill me, so I can go to my forward camp where my team needs me.
And in case your little mind got lost in the logic, lemme lay it out again.
1v1 happens in Cyrodiil.
It proves skill and has meaning.
But any decent player wants to die.
So if they're smart they won't fight back.
The faster you kill them, the faster they can take a forward camp to a relevant fight.
Therefore, 1v1 has zero meaning.
You. Are. Wrong. Accept it.
I rarely EVER attack a player who just lets me kill them. 99.9% of my run ins fight back.
Tell me what you plan to do IF they make blood porting obsolete?
You better start taking the long routes at that point. Don't want to end up being AP fodder...
LMAO.
And no, I'll just put some 1v1 skills into my bar.
The only time I load up 1v1 skills is when I'm running somewhere to drop a camp and I can't afford to die.
I didn't say all 1v1 is obsolete. Only most of it. So your argument that 1v1 has meaning in Cyrodiil is wrong. It has very little meaning.
And again, you might be hopeless. I can't tell if it's an issue with your reading ability, or your comprehension.
But I clearly state that I wish they would fix bloodgating and get rid of it so that small skirmishes, and 1v1's could gain meaning.
Atm, it's worthless.
You added that bit about blood parting after I made my comment.

Besides that, it's not even relevant here; your potential market is very small. The ad revenue off ten, twenty viewers is negligible. You're spouting hot air trying to justify your actions. I think it's pretty obvious your motivation here is not "the hate gets me viewers" or "lel I'm trolling too!" Your motivation is narcissism.
Go ahead and be narcissistic. I have no input on how you live your life. But then don't complain about people that diss you any chance you get or "haters". Tbh, some people attract hatred like faecal matter attracts flies. You have haters because you're hatable and your forum demeanor reflects that. I dunno. Maybe you're a swell guy in real life. But tbh at this point you deserve all the hate you get.
The people who know me and talk to me on a personal level and know my feelings/views about this entire situation.
I honestly would love to be cool with Hova in particular. I tried making amends with him once, unfortunately he wasn't too open minded.
As for the petty jabs and obvious trolling that goes around, those give me pleasure on multiple levels.
Anonymity reveals character. People try to separate who they are online from who they are in real life. I contend who you really are comes out when you pose nothing serious to lose when relating to other people. In this case, it's obvious you are highly sensitive about what people think of you. Your incessant ego defense reflex is testament of this.
I highly recommend that you just disavow forum warrioring. You say you enjoy the hatred. You and I know better; saying you enjoy the venom flung at you is a defense mechanism for a fragile ego. Either toughen up and stop giving a fak or stop venturing into territory where your sense of self will get beat up by people you cross.
When people who I don't give one single fak about criticize me I typically lack any motivation to say anything at all. It's obvious the Hovadouche and friends have punched you right in the feels ... you haven't been able to stop giving your fak's for weeks.

I just find it amusing how when you guys go on your little forum parades you can stop at anytime and brush it off as mere trolling and friendly banter.
But when I do it. It's clear that I'm butt hurt and have been struck right in the feels.
Give me a break with these double standards that you and NM have with outsiders.
When I lose an outnumbered fight in game I'm not even slightly bothered as it's statistically against my odds. So when a bunch of groupies want to gang up on me via the forums. I don't mind taking the heat and doing some of my own trolling back at them.
There's no way you can hurt a man who has nothing to lose.
