That's impossible when Tony regularly posts PMs he recieves from people either in the Harvest thread, or in a brand new Drama topic.
Then that's his prerogative. I'm sure he'd appreciate it if you PM'd him instead of starting arguments where they're not needed. You can skip the PM altogether and head straight to drama and call him names there, all I'm asking is to keep it out the clan thread where it doesn't belong.
From an outside perspective on the clan topic, this is bullstuff.
You guys almost never ignore their posts.
And the topic does just revolve around replying to them. During the 3 days Blockchip and co were chainbanned your topic came to a crawl. Not only that, half the discussion was about the fact they wouldn't be posting, or would soon be back.
Anytime you do get a moment of peace from them one of you, usually Tony or Patton, incite them to return.
Your clan topic is a stufffest that everyone involved contributes to.
Speaking in relative terms, it's true. Obviously this specific drama has sparked more controversy, and obviously 95% is an exaggeration. I could pull out a bunch of examples of Blockchip writing paragraphs and being blown off or responded to with a joke. There's probably an example or two of the opposite, I don't know, It doesn't matter. It's relative.
The only clans that are anywhere close to active or being as active as the harvest are the clans exploding with controversy. At the fundamental level clan activity is usually discussed over other more personal levels where people like Blockchip are denied access. I'm not sure if you're debating whether or not the Harvest is dying, the Harvest is an extraordinary successful clan by anyone's standards having stood the test of time. Either way, the fact that the thread isn't too active when there's nobody stuff posting in it isn't a valid justification to loving spam it.
I like how everyone pretends that "sheesh, you believe the nerve of that guy" is equitable to "inciting them to return". If you come take a stuff on my living room table and then leave, chances are everyone in the room is going to say "what the forget was that all about". It's not an invitation for you to come take another stuff on the table.
I have been ignoring him up until recently, fat load of loving help that did
Have you ever considered that you might be unable to ignore the guy because you have an intense and disproportionate hatred for him? I've been in your boat before, I used to have a mini brain aneurysm every time he posted in the fallout thread and I would argue with the dude for pages and pages in ridiculous and needless displays of rage, until at some point I just realized that he's entitled to a loving opinion. At which point, I just agreed to disagree. After that I went on to view the Harvest and Lord Tony from an unbiased viewpoint and came to the realization that he's literally just a dude with unpopular opinions and catches an INSANELY amount of flak for it, yet still continues to play the game, run his clan, and contribute add ons to the game, for absolutely nothing in return except a disproportionate amount of hatred.
Am I saying Lord Tony is a victim? Obviously not, I'm sure if he just pretended to be someone he wasn't and stuck to the status quo 24/7 everyone would love him, but having been here for 7 years, I've come to realize that that's not what this place is all about, and I've come to respect the effort Tony goes through to retain an uncompromising stance on everything he does despite constant resistance. Maybe "ignore" is the wrong word, but you sit here yourself and you waste time coming up with all these ridiculous accusations and insults to the point where you obviously have absolutely no respect for him but yet you still take him seriously enough to blast him for everything he says. Just let go lmfao, it's healthier for everyone involved.
I'm fairly sure rally is in cahoots with harvest, I think anything he says should be honestly disregarded
If you go back to the earlier stages of the Harvest you can clearly see me in there doing the exact thing I'm criticizing right now, in cahoots with molten and Blockchip. See how that works? It took me a while but I eventually figured out who the actual problem was. I'm only in Grimlocks clan because I was friends with Grimlock and we were talking about forming the wreckers probably as far back as 2013. I'm actually surprised that I wasn't Harvested months ago when all this started.
I don't understand this post. If you can chose to ignore anything I say just because I agree with Tony, then why can't you just ignore Tony in the first place lol?
