Why so negative? :(

Jan 12, 2009 by urmystar
Am I alone in thinking a lot of games are being ruined by the serial neggers?  Too many people just trying to be the winner of the game rather than just being social and getting to know other people from around the world.  It's a shame as the game overall is pretty fun but when you find all your posts being given negative points it kinda puts you off bothering

Yes urmystar :(

I agree.  I'm getting negged in both of my games currently. :(

So you are saying you didnt neg?? Surely negging is a tactic and this isnt a chat site. I can go on to a normal chat site to chat, this is a game site. So i am here to play the game (I know this is aimed at me) you got voted out, its not the end of the world.                                                                       

You negged just as much as anyone else, otherwise how come my posts went down to -3 or -4 in some cases.

It's not aimed at you in the slightest :S  It's more aimed at me joining a second game to be negged with my first post.  You've got a serious chip on your shoulder boy.  Either that or you think the world revolves around you.  Either way I forgot all about you lmao

Knix your very rude aren't you?
Yet you moan about sapphirerose being rude to you?

I don't neg.  I very rarely do. I've only done it twice.  One was to Kenny for his dang stupid talk and crude comments towards me and the only time I did to you was when I knew I was out and was giving JJJJ a little helping hand before you all ganged up on her.

JJJJ - Well i dont swear at people - big difference. This is debate and not sending a message full of swear words. BIG difference i think.

Well  your being rather rude to her don't you think? 'Get over it'
Not exactly a nice thing to say is it?
Sent by JJJJ,Jan 12, 2009
No not really, negging will happen, and if you cant deal with the fact that not every game will be nice and that sometimes you will have a gang of neggers going after you then maybe this game and this site isnt for you. Yes, chat is part of the game, but its a game site and not a chat site. So i think my comment is totally valid - either you get over the fact that you will get negged OR you leave the site and go to a chat site. The negging wont stop because you ask it to, its a tactic in the game!

Where did I ask it to stop :S  So now you're putting words in my mouth.  And what do you teach exactly cause your grammar is shocking!

Especially teaching Economics English is a key feature in essay writing.

And now whose being rude? This is a social interaction website and not an essay competition. Clearly my English skills are good enough to get me through all my qualifications. Thank you for your comments but I will ignore them.
Sent by knixuk,Jan 12, 2009
Ignore them? So why have you responded?
Sent by JJJJ,Jan 12, 2009
Ignore them?  So you're replying to them to let us know your ignoring them ;) lmao.  And yeah I'm bring rude, pretty much since I'm a bitch and hate you and whatnot (At least in your mind) so might as well play the part you've got me played out as, no?

Knix why wasn't you teaching today?

knixuk - Being rude doesn't involve swearing, it involves smart arse and intentionally insensitive comments. Your putting keys in her fingers (words in her mouth, lol)! She said that this blog isn't about you and it's pathetic for you to keep assuming so. Using excessive negging like that is a poor tactic, IMO, because you don't know that person and it's almost like slapping them in the face when they see they have -5!
And, it is quite clear that this site is almost as much of a social network and chat site that it is a game site! Some people on here dont even play games, they just blog and chat. It's designed to be versatile like that..

Ok Pop - where is my insensitive comment - she said that I thought the world revolved around me. I didnt say anything rude other than - in my opinion i think that this site is about the game, and that negging is a tactic in the game and therefore you have to expect it. Perhaps "get over it" was a bit of a strong phrase to use but i dont think it was too bad.      Then if you lool at the messages urmystar is rude about my spelling and grammer, now that is quite rude and actually a personal comment. I didn't and haven't made any personal comments about her on here - all my comments are about the game and the site. In fact i haven't made any personal comments at all. All of my comments, if you look are about the website.                                         So if anyone has been rude then it is urmystar. What if i was dsylexic or something, i'm not, but i could be and urmystars comments are far ruder and personal than anything i said.

Anyway i am leaving this now because we will have to agree to disagree, negging is part of the game.

Kudos, knixuk, nice reply.
And I don't see anything exceptionally bad in your spelling and grammar - People make typos and Tengaged can be tricky to lay out posts on.
