The Common Flame

The common flame by the board trolls have the same theme playing in the background. Think of Barbra Streisand and Neil Diamond or some other sappy duo and you’ll have a nice image. The rhythm never changes and the whiny-butt voices never stop.

The piece opens with a wild burst of offensive language and self-importance. Boasts of superiority and skills are often made with huge crescendos. Pieces of game conversation(s) are sampled and added to the song to support whatever melody they are trying to create. Don’t bother trying to sing the entire song, only a parody will allowed!

Magically, we hear the chorus chime in, all in harmony with each other. They sound off notes of praise for the folks posting the flames, all the while knowing that one hand washes the other. But what’s that? Do I detect a note of fear in their posts? Hark! It’s a little trill in the back being stifled by the fear that grips them! They know too well (as they are often trolls themselves) that if they post any note of discord the pack will descend upon them and devour them with more (you guessed it!) posts.

Most importantly the music plays on a state owned channel. This means the public can not protest the constant playing of Barbra and Neil, that they want a real message board with real music. All voices of discontent are stifled. (This years version of “You can’t ignore me or block me, I’m a powerful moderator! Take that!”)

There are many song titles and artists, but the self importance awards go to:

Lead Singers: (the original “Dueling Banjo” artists)
Lecreuset
Rappa

Backup Singers:
Sanoske
Mirewen
Kroess
Gunnerx
Marajade
Tokash
Solan
Davion
Stine
Zoltan
Daggett
Standarsh
Silenus
Kerowynn
Kelyon
Lucki
Lukas
Khidir
Vilurum
Jamal
Mishaela


In Summary:

The QCDN trolls have all lost perspective. The game was not created as a place for you to find your identity or well being. It was created as a toy, you remember those don’t you? They are something to enjoy.

I don’t think the original creators of QCDN conceived the board as a weapon to use against other human beings to make you feel superior. I believe the original intent was as a useful resource. I’m saddened that so many of you playing the game have nothing to live for outside of the game, and use the board for your own vices. Do yourselves a favor and unplug your gaming device/PC. You all are way too uptight and bloated with self-importance over a G A M E. This board means nothing and you won’t become famous here. In the grand scheme, it’s bits of data that have no impact. The sun continues to shine and the earth continues to spin while you rant, rave, spit and fume over not getting whatever it is you believe you must have to feel complete.

Remember, SE made us all depend on each other to accomplish the in game goals. There’s a reason for that.

And on that note, see you in game. I hope to see you there having a good time.

(Yeah, this could have gone in Good Times, but since I won't be back to this board it really doesn't matter does it?)

o.O I'm honored! Especially since I don't post much on the flameboard and the only thing I think I posted that could be taken as an attack against you is that subbing bard is lol. Considering it seems like half the time I'm disagreeing with Rappa or Jamal (still <3 you guys though :P) or whoever is flaming I'm a little sad to be in the chorus...but I mean come on, I love to argue but I can't think of a single defense for a blm that can never stun or a whm subbing bard in 95% of circumstances. :ph34r:
 
A word of advice, if you don't want to hear anything bad about you then stop pulling the same shit that you are doing right now.
It makes you look like a kid who is being spiteful because they were told to get off the playground by throwing rocks at the other kids.


Stop being so confrontational to others. Most of them are not out to get you.
Some of these people may actually give you a chance to see something different from what they have heard about you.
If you confirm what they have heard about you, be it positive or negative, then they will treat you in their way accordingly.

Don't even try to make new threads just to prove your point; it just makes you look like a beaten dog barking for the sake of barking.

If people do get critical of the way you play, then think about it and see if what they say actually holds any merit. Don't go chewing their head off just because of it.
Doing so makes you look very immature and not very cooperative.
If they are saying you are missing a few stuns when it is your job, then look in the actual log to see when the mob is going to do that nasty move or AoE.
Turn on some filters to make it easier, for f*ck sakes, they are there for a reason.
If you still miss it once in a while, that's fine, shit like that happens.
However, if you are missing every single one and it shows that other people actually notice that, then something IS indeed wrong.
Thus, it would be sensible to fix that.
 
Note to self: Do not fuck up in party/dynamis/anywhere that involves FFXI, unless you want to find a flame about you.

I think I got it now.

P.S. Tenia and Byla deserved the flame.

(I had to skip the run because of some RL stuff I had to deal with.)
 
Fucking up is one thing. Everyone fucks something up at some point. The bigger concern is not admitting to and not learning from your mistakes. I'd much rather work with someone who occasionally screws up but learns from it every time, than with someone who rarely screws up but is so full of themselves that they don't learn anything when they do.
 
Stop being so confrontational to others. Most of them are not out to get you.

Well put Rae!

Tenia:
Just because you're paranoid doesn't mean that people aren't out to get you.

You are not a beautiful and unique snowflake.

I Call fowl! (covering myself for spelling) ie; they (the cackling hens) take parts of quotes on this site and post them as if that's all you said... True sign of a coward

Oh I give up can't improve on that
 
I am a floating butterfly.
 
I'm a beautiful and unique snowflake :mad:

Listen up, maggots. You are not special. You are not a beautiful or unique snowflake. You're the same decaying organic matter as everything else. You're not your job. You're not how much money you have in the bank. You're not the car you drive. You're not the contents of your wallet. You're not your fucking khakis. You're the all-singing, all-dancing crap of the world.
