Uhm, Baron, didn't you just do exactly the same thing two weeks ago? Pointing out the fallacies of Monstar's ramblings?

Monstarmaster wrote on Fri, 21 November 2008 16:35 rest assured that I have a nice job and a bunch of real friends whom some of the ttr-players have already met in person... I don't mean this harshly, I just mean it as a fact. Regarding the sentance above, NO ONE CARES. Not only do "they" not care about whether you have a nice job and friends but "they" don't care if I do, or if thekid or Erps does. Do you care if thekid has lots of friends and a nice job? No, you do not. You don't care if he has 18,452 best friends in the world because you don't like some of his online persona. Maybe there is a lesson in that???? Monstarmaster wrote on Fri, 21 November 2008 16:35 Besides, Angel: As I am online quite often let me state that the amount of games played is no ultimate indicator for the amount of time spent in the TTR-realm. No one cares. Monstarmaster wrote on Fri, 21 November 2008 16:35 Tyrana e.g. is usually online here chatting in the lobby etc. when I arrive and she is still there when I leave the lobby...and this does not mean that she is just virtually present while not being in front of her PC...she answers when being addressed almost every time (even though she might be multitasking sometimes). Her games take much longer than my games (in general) as she hardly ever plays random people (the typical 5-10 minutes games with strangers) - her 2pl games last up to 1 h if there is a lot of talk to be done during the game. Still she manages to organise her life with husband and 2 kids. Why do you even mention this? Who cares? Does it make you feel better to say someone who everyone likes spends a lot of time online. Monstarmaster wrote on Fri, 21 November 2008 16:35 So, all in all, a lot of people spend a lot of time here while not necessarily playing games. Another player "haunting" the lobby for several hours - at least sometimes and it should be admitted that he does not do so any longer lately - is Baron. So many people spend hours and hours per day in the ttr-realm while not always playing games but "socialising" in other ways. Finally, the majority of my games are 5-10 minutes 2pl games against anyone who enters them (be it a 1700, be it a 1100 player). I daresay that I am one of the fastest players here - when not complaining during a game to someone. So my style could be described as less time-consuming and basically efficient. That's it. MM So let me get this straight. Your last diatribe here at the end is making the EXACT same point that Angel was trying to make but which somehow escaped you? That is pretty funny. Angel was saying a lot of players spend ALOT of time on TTR. And that you were getting to 10,000 within a year and that was very fast (meaning you play fast games). You crack me up sometimes. Trying to "defend" yourself when there was no attack and bringing up yet again what a nice person you are when you aren't being a "monstar" on ttr. I hope I never have to hear it again.
