Nikki Seven / LBR vs Reddit

[Kaslo]

You don't understand. The mods don't read every single comment in every single thread every single day. Shit mods gonna shit.

And holy shit, I didn't realize those pics were of him lol. I thought there were like, "haha this post reminds me of the people in these pics" so thanks for clearing it up for me at least lol

This.

[Kaslo]

You called into LBR yesterday right?

I was watching the Twitch vod linked from the front page of /r/FFXIV

For reference:

[Avarice]

Man, these last three pages.

[Rocl]

this is why no one likes paladins

[Eurell]

No Rocl. He has facts backing him up. Go study his hours of streams so we can resolve this petty middle school bullshit lol.

Like holy shit kid, do you think fucking anything you've said since this has started has been reasonable at all? lol

[Worm]

Really regret letting curiosity get the better of me, this guy is a loon isn't he?

[Kaslo]

What's bad is this guy took his hero status of calling out reddit and turned it against himself by talking about himself lol

[Brill Weave]

Should I bother reading through all of this?

Example 1: lolyoudidn'treadmyresponse. We cleared week 1 A1/2S, the fact that I bent over backwards to accommodate Beren's lack of being able to position and supplemented her weak healing skills with regular Clemencies just to stay afloat, fueled my response to her

Again, if you were so good at your job, why did the group replace you and not her? No amount of edgy comebacks hides this simple truth.

Example 2: We had gone through a few healers, I brought in a WAR, she had health issues, they got a new one, didn't mesh well, they got discouraged and didn't want to recruit anymore,

This response needs much more HOT TAKE, because right now it's a total non-explanation.

Example 3: Low DPS overall, non-optimal mechanics, trouble during add phase, last raid session I found myself falling asleep during raid and realized it was too much prompted me to quit the group.

So you're falling asleep during the raid and the fault is the DPS. Right.

But wait!

In your rush to accuse, you fail to realize, anyone who wants to can Google raw progression in its unedited format being that I stream my sessions and archive them to study later and improve, for group benefit.

[...]
I have evidence to the contrary for anyone who cares to look at hours of raw progression footage,

So I guess I should put on my detective hat and watch hours upon hours of you failing at Alex Savage in order to determine that you really don't suck at the game (when you are awake)...?

The fact that you consider this a trenchant rebuttal is exactly why I made my original point: you COULD have been posting links to videos of wipes that weren't your fault, and you COULD have been posting ACT logs of subpar DPS, and you COULD have been posting fight statistics showing unmanaged fairies with zero overheals.

But instead, you prefer to post "fuck shit asshole eat cancer and die," because you don't actually have any of that data to back you up, and you're betting on no one caring enough to sit through hours upon hours of fail videos to point out exactly where you messed up. And that's a solid bet.

In short, the reason why your posts are full of scorching hot fire and not actual evidence is because a) you don't actually have the evidence or b) you think it's more convincing to spit out a stream of insults instead of providing simple proof.

I called this at hello.

The problem is not that using mean language hurts feelings.

The problem is that edgy, hardass insults are universally (<--- not an exaggeration) used to shore up weak arguments when the author really wishes he had a more convincing point to make.

[Rocl]

no

Should I bother reading through all of this?

If you have spare brain cells to kill, go for it, man.

[BaneTheBrawler]

Should I bother reading through all of this?

nah. i've only been skimming the novels but no one's taking his ethuggery seriously so i don't think there's anything we need to act on as mods. unless he threw a few no-no words in there that i missed, but a ctrl+F would tell us that if we feel the need. and for entertainment, its too long.

[Avarice]

BG has no-no words?

[BaneTheBrawler]

yeah. not many, but a few. pretty much just slurs.

[Patriarch]

Very relevant

[Qeomash]

Only no-no word I know of is that one website that shall not be mentioned.

[Zetanio]

What's bad is this guy took his hero status of calling out reddit and turned it against himself by talking about himself lol

He could have just left and he'd still be a hero.

So much hubris.

[Churchill]

That's the thing about euphoria, your euphoria is so awe-inspiring that there is simply no way the plebeian masses won't recognize it for its own greatness.

[BaneTheBrawler]

Only no-no word I know of is that one website that shall not be mentioned.

They're all bigoted slurs and legal shit, like the-site-that-shall-not-be-named. Odds are you're not going to accidentally say them. Context being important, the response can be varied (usually just edited post in the case of legal shit). We don't make a list because people fucking love rules-lawyering ("But you never said I couldn't!").
