The thing is people seem to blame me for the goings on but in actuality revolves around certain people including themselves. Before Unk became buddies with Ralph he was constantly going to war against him. He most recently went to war against MrCute512 until MrCute512 laid the smackdown on him in a similar manner to myself.
Before MrCute it was in fact Ralph and other Minion users. Unk apparently counted me as one of the Minion complainers just bc I played Pure Minion (which is HILARIOUS cause I was never of the complaining obnoxious type as it refers to that spec). In actual fact I was regularly cheering Unk on when he went to town against the ‘complainers’. So now I recently find out directly that he’s horrible.
If you’re interested in my psychoanalysis of him, he lashes out against other players because of two main things. One, of his drive and perception that he has to be better than others and his pushing me to put up a Gauntlet score is symptomatic. Two, others do not accept him and so as that route is unavailable, he goes to war with everyone and again, symptomatic of that is his supposed Gauntlet rating, as well as knowledge of the game. He beats everyone on the head with it as others cannot beat him back. The regular strategy to deal against that being to not care about it and not do what he wants you to do.
As you might suspect, I can keep going on and on psychoanalyzing other users with frightening accuracy. That being said, I want to take a moment to say that just b/c I take firm stances and at times kick down certain ppl, it does not mean I think that of everyone and I certainly don’t mean to offend people who are reading who haven’t commented.
My ire is specifically directed at the persons I’m responding towards. It just so happened that others got caught up with it, and sometimes ppl get caught up in it and they take sides. They don’t take my side, they join their side. When not knowing that I’m their supporter and fan.
Take Iridium for example, I don’t like him anymore after the entanglement from the other thread. And that never needed to be that way. It’s a shame. Had you not taken their side and maybe focus on objectivity we would’ve been cool.
I think that before people get mad at me and take issue with me, remember that I say things and do things for a reason.
Take my history with Blood Surge as an example. Everyone said 2H was not the right way. Not the right way. At level 100, not only did I prove it was the right way, I also proved that it worked and it was good. Everyone also said Crit Chance/Damage was not the right way. Not only did I prove why it was essential, the devs buffed it in the season that followed to make it work with OP.
My history with Pure Minion follows a similar trajectory. That one was kind of hilarious bc everyone was telling me minions didn’t work & I kept proving ppl wrong until I got all the way up to tier 4 (where my ps5 controller died, new season started). I was able to iterate on that build on the side and it was able to do higher nmd’s as time went on.
So yeah people seemingly fight me super hard on what I know is the right way and then making me an enemy bc I don’t follow what they do, or do what other people do. When not knowing that I could be their friend and could provide invaluable insight and whatnot. I’m also a loyal and very supportive person of people who I see as my friend. The potential to have more with me was always there but people always choose conflict.
Bringing up the celebrities was sort of an extreme move and of course the disbelief and laughs rolled in. The point was that if prominent celebrities who you know in one way or another, give love back to me when it is well understood that ‘regular’ folks chance to get anything like that is practically nil, what does that say about me, and what does that say about you?
The short answer is that it is because love is lacking and it is because of that, that I know in your own personal lives that there are imbalances, perhaps dysfunction due to that. Perhaps if you carried yourselves with the primary principle of love, and towards others, that the outcome would be different. Not just here but anywhere. Hate me if you want, but if you at least try to practice a little of it in your daily lives, that you’d see a shift in your experience.
