I wasn't sure what section of the forums to put this in... but please may I have a chance with an arguement?
I posted on the Americas Army, section of the forums SUGGESTING (not DEMMANDING, not even expecting for the matter to changed... just expressing my opinion!) a certain topic.
Was it necessary to block out my side of the arguement by locking the Topic? Wasn't that a bit selfish yourself when you blocked me from returning words.
The post above yours was self explanatory, and yours below it was a slap in the face over.... a suggestion(??). Don't you think, me being a teenager, gets enough of that junk at school, on the street?? Do you really think I need it here! Why do you even think I asked to join clan? To get yelled at and be told I'm selfish and disrespectful?? No... I wanted to join because I wanted to join a nice Christian clan with people I can be friends with, and help its cause. If I can't be friends with It's leader... (after that post I find it hard) well then why join? There are plenty of other Christian clans I could just as easily get into.
Do you not think I know life does not work this way?? Do you think I'm stupid?? Do you really think I've lived in a mansion, with anything and everything at my fingertips for me to have?
Maybe I'm wrong about you and I'm sure you don't know me. BUt may I please have a chance instead of you blocking me out and forgetting about it?

First of all, this is not the way to approach the situation. Jeff(Peace) had a reason to block out your aspiration to join our clan because of disrespect shown to us by you in another thread. I understand your dislike with his decision, but he is the clan leader. I of all people know how hard it is to swallow pride and take life for what it is, but things happen for a reason. Now, this assumptions you're making about us, do you honestly think that's going to win us over?
Then please, go find one. Don't waste our time with your blatant disrespect. Nobody was "yelling" at you, as if that can be truly done on the internet, but Jeff was calling it as he saw it. I agree with him, I thought it was very selfish and disrespectful for you to come on our forum, not getting to know us at all, and just demand our servers to be changed back to SF Hospital and Bridge. You know, I would LOVE for our three servers to be on Pipeline, Urban Assault, and MOUT McKenna at all times, but it ain't happening. They are rotated for a reason, as Sound posted in that thread for you.
I'm sure in no way did it cross our minds that we thought you were some spoiled rich kid, but with the way you demanded our servers to change maps and showed your distaste for the maps they were changed to, the thought of you being a little selfish and rude did cross our minds.
I would seriously reconsider your approach on this matter. It seems to me like you're on pretty thin ice.
Joe

... Why did you guys change the SF hospital and Bridge servers?  Those are like.... the two best maps in the game!!! (In my opinion  ) Not like the two maps they are on are bad.... (sarcastic...  ) I do realize that I am being a bit self centered ... If that's what you call suggestions, then my deepest sympathies to your parents, no offense meant. Those words can only be taken as demanding that we change the servers back just to please you and as ridiculing those of us who just might happen to like the maps that the servers are currently running. In the future, instead of insulting us or making such demands, maybe you should give these maps a try -- you might even learn something, like that River Basin is actually an exceptionally fun and challenging map -- and with the right team around you, it holds just as many points as SF Hospital does -- in fact, my best-ever match score (just under 1000) came on River Basin. And as for closing that thread ... that was to protect you from the flames that you were asking for by posting in such a manner. Since you apparently don't want that protection, I'll leave this one open for a while to let the rest of the clan weigh in with their opinions on how you want us to spend the money that they have sacrificially donated to our server fund. |

Please answer this question for me.
You "asked" if our server could be changed "back" to bridge and hospital. First of all, I get pretty often scores between 500-700 on Mout, so there is no need to go to Hospital for high score.
And what was your arguement for our servers? That you like it there, while there are usually about 500 Bridge servers, and many Hospital servers.
What words would you want to return? To tell Peace how he should spend our money on people that just walk in and tell is what to do.
I am a teenager myself, and I would never, ever visit a forum and ask for a map change without knowing the people in that clan.
Greetings,
Jamie

I would have to agree with Joe and Peace and would offer this advise - take it or leave it. Electronic communication is a poor substitute for direct, face to face communication. Things that you can say to someone's face and they know you are kidding or joking doesn't come across electronically. You may have meant your post to be more of a humorous chiding, but I think it is clear to you now that it didn't come across that way.
I've been in this clan for less than six months and can vouch for the character of these guys and gals. When things are done they are done for the right reason and to protect the clan and those participating. By closing the first posting Peace was protecting you, believe it or not. And by the responses you will get from this posting hopefully you'll realize that we are all trying to get you to see how your response was received, which you will find in life is very much more important than how you meant it to be received.

I just wanted to say that this is a great game, i have nothing against any map. though i may prefer some maps over others at times i think that wherever the server is i could use some practice. I am noware neer being as good as some of the great people in this clan and i need practice in all maps.

I have the feeling that if you start playing a new map that you own better then if you know the map good :S
take care

To suggest a map change like this to choose how the money donated by everyone is used is wrong  , How about you pay for the maps and start your own clan. Once you start to work for a living you will notice that this is a ridiculous remark  I don't mean to come across harsh. And I absolutly agree with Peace and Joe. John |
