I mean you literally couldn't be more hypocritical. Your parents pay for your internet, paid for your key, and pay for you to live with them in their house. There are kids in Africa who live in tents and pray they have a bite to eat for the day and clean drinking water.
When the starving African children get online and start stirring up trouble and being a nuisance in the community, then I'll acknowledge their relevance in this Drama. Pulling a badly designed "guilt trip" is pathetic and a poor argument. You make yourself seem equally a fool, when you yourself admit to working at a job and then using that money to purchase multiple keys for an online game, when you could give that money to African children.
I'm 17 years old, older than a good 60% of you, so calling me 'kid' as a belittling term is pretty sad.
Throughout this topic you refer to multiple specific members (and even summarise the entire userbase of the forums) as "friends", "ass backward richardforgets" and "morally forgeted
adolescents" to quote a few.
You attempt to belittle other people and large groups of people.
You also use the term "bud" multiple times. It is the exact same as using "kid". A "bud" is the young stage of a plant/flower. You're equally trying to belittle someone by calling them small or young or weak.
You can not earn respect by being disrespectful. It does not work that way.
If you so sincerely want to prove yourself to be better than those coming into this topic to flame, then perhaps consider not insulting them back.
You simply reinforce their insults and accusations when you lose your cool and just whinge and shout.
Simply because you have my Instagram, family, and home address doesn't mean you know me, it just means that your pretty creepy.
As of my last post, I've gotten 3 calls (2 blocked numbers I'm assuming was you guys) that my family members told me they'd received, plenty of emails, and 2 Facebook messages.
I won't fight you on this point, because I thoroughly agree.
Many people on these forums are being disgusting and obscene.
Just because the information is "public", and it is, that does not give you the right to use it to contact or insult or threaten his family or his person.
The point that the information is readily available is irrelevant. The local Phone Book is readily available to me and you. You don't use that to insult and threaten people and their families.
Think before you act. You would not want a random stranger trying to contact you.
You also would not want someone you're having a fight/argument with in real life to contact your family/friends. This is the sort of action that when in the "real world" often leads to unnecessary police involvement.
Yola has to acknowledge that the information is public and it's not going to change. There's no way about that.
But everyone else should be mature enough to not harrass someone or their family.
I know you're all very passionate about Blockland, Badspot and the Forums, but petty attacks on them are not a rightful call for the harrassment and mistreatment of another person and their family in real life.

Don't call me childish simply because I asked for something in return for another... It wasn't blackmail or anything you'd like to think it was bud, it was asking for something in return for information that you wanted.
I'd like to give my view on this point.
The sub-argument that you did not extort or blackmail Badspot for your Blockland ID's.

If you want evidence on who has been attacking your forums, I have it. I've collected it since the first instance of "the storm is coming". Unless you have it under control.

I mean I want something to gain here; you get evidence on who's been attacking your game and I get nothing ? That doesn't seem very fair.
On a more related note; it hasn't been the same person, one person started it and others continued it.
Let's sum this up;
- You tell Badspot you have information on a group of people who are attacking his forums.
- --- This implies that you know who the people are who are attacking the forums.
- --- In a small Community like Blockland Forums', you highly likely know these people on a personal basis. Likely you chat with them and are friends
- Badspot asks for you to give the information.
- --- In your initial message, you never stated any plans to have anything in return
- You reply that you want your ID's un-banned.
- --- The fact that you know who these attackers are, and have information upon them, means you know full well what they are doing.
- --- This means that in refusing to provide the information, you are leaving it so that Badspot's website is still to be attacked
- --- You know this full well, and you ask for something in return. You are bargaining
- --- Your "bargaining chip" is the "protection" of Badspot's server in the form of information on attackers.
- --- Your "negotiation" is one that has the options of "Give me what I want, or attacks will continue".
- --- This is a threat.
- --- A threat in bargaining/negotiation is extortion.
- Whether you see it this way or not, you are extorting Badspot in return for BLID's that were revoked fairly in accordance to the contract you agreed to when purchasing them, following you confessing to maliciously attacking another user's server.
This is the way Badspot and everyone else is seeing this, and it is unacceptable.
It is not proper behaviour.
You have overreacted and made demands following you breaking rules. Badspot has acted fully within the rights of the purchase contract you and him made when you purchased Blockland.
You made a very very big stink over losing accounts when you deserved to lose them.
You have since been an even bigger hypocrite, in that you have repeatedely bought new BLIDs and have used them to complaing about not getting your old ID's back.
Any other normal player would have bought a new BLID (which you claim is easy since you have your own income that can afford it), and then carried on like normal. There is no need to dig up past grievances.
You can not change the fact that you were initially wrong by making a big noise.
Your arguments on your physical characteristics are irrelevant in any discussion on this topic. It only comes off as inflating your ego and boasting. Continuing on about how you can bench x#pounds and others can't is boasting.
It is not something people like.
Whether someone is or is not better at something than me isn't relevant. I don't want to hear them going on about it.
Why you have to make a fuss and be nasty about it all, I do not know.
It's so much easier to just be nice and calm and act normally and follow rules. It takes no effort at all.
You only cause your own problems in trying to be big and mean and scary. You can't get your point across because you come off as the enemy. If you want people to listen to you, it's better to be their friend. Just give it a try, please, for your own sake.
