Ok did a quest line ...

[puppychow]

I find Sam funny as heck (mostly his personal life stuff tbh, its like that movie Big if it kept going...) but I think a lot of people disparage him because he makes absolutely ludicrous statements on being the best. The equivalent of me walking into a NFL football teams locker and saying I am better than all of them because I kicked a nerf football at home today so hard into the ground it cracked a peanut. If I kept doing that every week I think most of them would constantly make fun of me too.

Its pretty well established in WoW who is the "best" multiboxer -- Prepared has the largest team that is actually doing something, Ellay has the highest PVP multibox arena ranking in s4 I think and probably s5 so far, Niley probably has the most PVE (heroics/raiding) progression, and that one guy who was an expat in China whose name I forget solo'd Karazhan 10 man before patch 3.0 (nobody so far in Naxx10 afaik has solod much). The rest of us play for fun and challenging ourselves.

Sam comes rushing into here nearly six months ago and says he is going to be the best multiboxer WoW has ever seen, and in those six months he has reached... level 27? Most of us could easily have done that IN A SINGLE WEEKEND if we bothered to pay for 27 accounts.

For some strange reason, I don't see the message from which you are quoting.

He or another mod must have deleted it. There is at least one mod going around deleting posts, a whole section of a thread was deleted the other day and I've seen at least 3 of my posts deleted in the last 2 weeks.

The way I see Sam is, he's either trolling for the hate on purpose, (in which case, why play into his game?), or he really is just so goofy as to believe some of the goofy stuff he says (in which case, why waste my "hate" on someone as goofy as that?).

Either way, I have to admit to a certain morbid fascination with Sam's posts... kind of like that drunk spouse of a coworker at the Christmas party. It's really awkward and kind of sad, but I just have to keep watching to see what happens next.

Wasn't me who removed these particular posts, BUT... Some posts that end up derailing past the point of recovery (or single posts that we can nab out of threads before the giant snowball effect kicks in) get moved to a special Mods-only section to be discussed and dealt with.

We're having discussions about certain peoples' behavior, but I'd like to keep it private for the time being until it's well sorted out. If you're one of the involved parties, you'll get a PM from one of the mods.

In any case, thanks for being patient with us, and I apologize for some of the confusion around missing threads/posts.

At least one of my posts that got deleted was completely on topic and had nothing inflammatory at all, I was really baffled by the censorship. Another was a mild jab at Sam whom I think we can all agree whether you care for him or not his gigantic ego can handle it, the worse that could possibly happen is he takes a second for some self evaluation. Oh no!

I for one just really don't care for a high level of censorship. The harshest statements I have seen on this forum have actually come from mods *shrug*

Speaking for myself, when I edit / delete posts, don't think of it as censorship. I remove stuff that is blatantly useless or full of idiocy. I edit everything else. ( I don't mean any of this to apply to you specifically, I don't think I've ever modded your posts).


Back on topic: wtb a Sam thread that doesn't get derailed into hate. pst.

[Wilbur]

Maybe he should post on a diffrent forum then?

Personally I'd recommend dual-boxing.fr that way at least half the people wouldn't understand him :-)

Sorry, what I meant to say here glo was that when entire THREADS derail past the point of recovery, we move the thread -- which often includes on-topic posts in the beginning -- to another forum in order to moderate without the thread continuing to escalate. So, many apologies to those who WERE on topic and WERE constructive, as we're not intending to censor informative posts, but because the thread as a WHOLE has gone into the gutter, we need to lock and/or delete it before it gets even worse.

...which is what looks like this thread is starting to do as well. I'll leave this up and/or lock if I have to, but I'll leave it a chance to get back on-topic if anyone else wants to continue the original thread.

If you have any concerns about threads disappearing or whatnot, feel free to PM a mod for clarification. We'll try to keep this one clutter-free if possible.

In the end Sam, did you find doing that quest line:
- interesting?
- entertaining?
- good xp (compared to your normal grinding style)

And are you going to keep on doing quests.
