Just wanted to clarify

"Wrong attitude to take..."they have strict rules" "they won't bend"...you got banned I would think you would try to be as positive as you could about a community you seem to want to be a part of...like fly said get that CAL mentality out of here...many of us play CAL here but still adhere to TTP rules"

-Express

I did not in any way have a negative tone or attitude in my post and I hope you understand that. Saying that TTP has strict rules is in no way negative, unless you perceive it to be. "They won't bend" again, is the same as saying they have strict rules. You can take it negatively [oh screw him hes saying were arrogant] or positively [hell yea hes saying we dont take shit], However you want to take it; but I, in no way, meant it to be negative at all. I was simply trying to tell the fellow posting in that topic that he needs to let it go. I hope that no one else thought the same way Express did; for I did not mean it in that way. And I just wanted to clarify this. Thankyou.

Whats the meaning of this thread??

**Vincent** · 04-24-09, 11:51 PM

Well in Phidan's Topic about defusing versus saving, Express made a comment about my post. And I wanted to clarify that he indeed misunderstood, and I did not want anyone thinking that THAT was what i was conveying in my post. I'm sorry for the pointlessness of this thread I suppose.

How do you think this is possibly helping you at all?

**Vincent** · 04-25-09, 12:03 AM

No guyver... see thats what I'm trying to do.. is help. Because Express said, in a topic before that I wasn't helping at all by posting that. But in THIS post in THIS topic, I am saying that i in no way meant for it to be interpreted like he did, and that i was just explaining to Phida that he needs to forget about it, because rules are rules.

.. Total backfire by making this topic i guess. lol.

You were banned, it was sustained. Man up, and wait the thirty days.

Actually, if you read Vincent's posts, instead of just seeing him post and assuming negative, you might actually see what he's saying. We DO have strict rules, and we DO NOT bend on them. Non teamplay is bannable, no matter what game you're playing. In CS, failure to follow the call, try for the objective, flash your teammates.. these are acts of non-teamplay, strictly enforced. In my neck of the woods, 2142, disobeying/ignoring commander and SL orders, not commanding when in the commander spot, teamkilling, etc are acts of non-teamplay and strictly enforced. I help to enforce them over there, and I do not bend.

So Vincent's statement is true. Read the words.

And Guyver, your statements are making no sense.

Instead of just spewing "Man up" and blah blah.. why not instead guide him and show him how to be a part of our team? Bring teh teamplay to the forums. Help him understand.

TO GUYVER:
Ok. Maybe you don't understand.
http://www.texasteamplayers.com/index.php?topic=60453.0
In THAT topic, made VERY RECENTLY; a guy was discussing with some people about a situation in game involving saving your gun or defusing the bomb. I pointed out to him, that it doesn't matter, because TTP has rules and that he shouldn't bother trying to bypass them.

THEN~
Express said that I shouldn't of said that b/c i was banned and that I should be nice.
But in FACT, i was being nice, and my post had nothing negative about it towards TTP, i was merely telling Phidan that he should forget about it b/c rules are rules.

THUSLY, I posted this, to clarify.

EDIT:"Instead of just spewing "Man up" and blah blah.. why not instead guide him and show him how to be a part of our team? Bring teh teamplay to the forums. Help him understand."

Response: I understand =] I was just telling Phidan that he needs to move on from tryin to bypass the rule, and ya. :P
Anywho.. i have a headache =]

**Walkerxes** · 04-25-09, 12:21 AM

Oh I saw, and read both threads.

The point I'm trying to make is this... you've got 30 days to sit the bench as far as TTP CS servers go (reg and top 5), however, you still ahve access to the forums, and are not banned from the other TTP-hosted games.

Now's the time to sink or swim. You can either A) dissapear for 30 days, come back and make an appeal request. or B) hang around the forums, get to know people, learn more of what we're about, play some of the other games we host.. maybe even consider a reserve slot in the future (obviously not now, as you're banned). We have a lot to offer, you might have a lot to offer too. Show us what you got. And then in 30 days make the request.

However (to those not Vincent), constantly driving people off with unhelpful chest-puffing and automatic assumptions that because he's banned everything he might say is negative, therefore basically giving him the "fuck off and go wait out your 30 days where we don't have to look at you" doesn't bring in new people, doesn't help someone turn around and be the next great teamplayer, and generally doesn't help anything.

Well I just want to clarify something here...Vincent...I had a couple issues with your post, one with your constant referring to TTP as they, if you want to become a part of TTP then I'm all for it, however it may seem like something insignificant to you but why not say "we have rules here at TTP." It sounds better and it looks as though you want to become a part of the community.

Secondly was that you kept bringing up examples of scrimming and CAL which have no relevance in the TTP servers that was it, the playstyle there is completely different than on our servers, many can attest to that.

Walker, please don't assume that I was making assumptions, I know what I meant when I wrote it, but to turn it into something else is not helpful either. Maybe you missed the whole point of what I was trying to say or maybe the whole point of the whole topic but I wasn't being negative. I did read what he wrote and am more than intelligent enough to understand what was said.
