CAW Stats 2010

[Trevor McManus]

Listen to RD and Smythe and Jay and be positive.

 

Quickly want to touch on this right here. I don't think anyone understands what they mean when they tell me to 'be positive.' There's a difference between being positive and ignoring the negative. People want me to do the latter and ignore negative things. How does ignoring negative help in ANY way?

 

Now to quickly touch on Leon's point: If you knew there wasn't going to be a Riot then simply tell us. Some of us did submit some stuff and I for one would rather know it wasn't going to go up rather than sitting in limbo for 13 days. I'm not blaming you for the show not going up, by any means, but at least tell the people who did work that it's a no-go.

 

 

For what Sammy said about the time it takes for a GM to put shows together. I do appreciate that but they know it comes with the 'job' before they accept it. And honestly the fact that it's hard work is not an acceptable excuse for not doing stuff. Nor is it an acceptable excuse for the wrestler's not submitting work. And as much as I generally end up picking battles with staff, the wrestler's hold all of the fault with that. My only issue with the show was that we weren't actually TOLD what was happening with it. The show not going up is entirely the fault of the roster and not staff.

 

One last thing I feel I need to do quickly. Karim, you said something about me perhaps thinking my views matter more than Kage's? That's not true at all. Most people here hold the same level of viewpoint. However I do feel my criticism is more helpful than Kage's, my criticism is pointing out things which I don't like and then giving other people the opportunity to answer those points. Kage's criticism basically consists of "STFU!"

 

EDIT - I just read Jaysin's post from yestarday and I think I need to clarify where I'm coming from here. There is NEVER anything personal between me and someone that I'm arguing against on the forums. You can call me whatever the hell you want while we're talking on the forums and I hold absolutely 0 personal beef with you. These little back and forths that I have ever so often are purely points of OCW related matter. I picked out Smythe as an example because two things he did recently came to the top of my head. I don't personally have any issue with Smythe and I think he's a valuable member of OCW. I raised the points because I felt what he was doing wasn't helpful to OCW. And maybe in doing that I started what some would regard as a 'flame war' of sorts and I guess that comes to what Jaysin said about how you execute your opinion. The way I do things is just based upon my personal way of how I like things discussed. I like things banged out in the public to fire through them and so everyone can give their 2 cents. If I had any sort of personal beef it wouldn't go anywhere but AIM or perhaps the shoutbox.

 

 

P.S. On the advice of one Guy Fausto I'm using this opportunity to use my never-ending stream of complaining to ask for JCS to change my username.

No, no, I said "if he thinks his opinion means more than yours Kage...". I was making a point as to how Kage thinks because he's old school and has, simply put, played this VIDEO GAME, in this community longer than most, that his opinion has more weight, which is bull shit, but alas, the AIM Warrior sits behind his desk, typing away like a badman.

[Smythe D. Wonder]

I know there are some people here ready to take the next step. I see some creativity around here and people are trying, but maybe fear ridicule? Dont worry about anyone else here, be true to your character, let us know what makes them tick. Good characters will get alot of push around here. Great characters will be somewhere near the spotlight and if they match that with in ring skill, then you have yourself a true championship worthy character. All of the memorable Champions had memorable storylines enroute to the gold.

Best thing i've read all day... which kinda sucks cause I have no idea who you are!!!

 

but remember OCW is about taking all the things that you think are wrong with wrestling... and creating the best federation possible... Creating the best character ever... and seeing how far you can impress others and the bosses with what you do...

 

effort and execution... that's all I can say... and I'm proof that it works...

[Brad Bauer]

You know, I would rather be forced to watch 10,000 hours of John Cena footage than to see any more posts from Trips.

 

Trips, you are a 95 lb scottish kid with bad teeth and bad hair. You whine more than my girlfriend when she's on her period. You would complain if you won the lottery...or if you finally grew some pubic hair.

 

I can see now, why you were banned a few months back. SHUT THE FUCK UP....

Whether I agree with it or not that was some pretty good shit by Bauer there

[Trevor McManus]

This thread makes me laugh now. You all say I do nothing by complaining. How is complaining about my complaining helping anything?

 

I make a point and you make a personal attack on me? You're much more helpful than me Brad, much more helpful.

[Craig Casey]

Greetings fellow citizens of ocw,

 

Would you all, kindly, mind to shut the fuck up?

 

The bitching is assinine.

 

Thanks

bye
