[glow=green,5,0]After having jumped on to wormnet2 for the chance of a quick game tonight I have been driven to create this thread. I was kicked from th lobby of a Shoppa game tonight by a guy called 'Addsy'. I warn you all to look out for this guy. I have tried to play with him b4 and wouldn't have joined his game but he has now managed to find a clan (which once again shows me what a waste of time they are) who will let him play for them. When ever I have played this guy in the past he has quit when it looks like he will not win and this encludes the times when he has hosted the game. No one likes a quitter and I know I would never join a game this guy had hosted if I had realised it was him. This sort of thing usually wouldn't bother me but the little noob had the cheek to write 'bye bye Simon' b4 he kicked me from his lobby this evening. I urge you all to give this little FUCK some abuse should you run in to him.
Thanks and regards
Si. [/glow]

If I were to flame every arrogant, untalented, quitting little geek I encountered on WormNet, then one of two things would happen: A, I would die of starvation and dehydration from never leaving the seat in front of my PC, or B, my keyboard would disintegrate under the weight of the 4-letter words I would be typing in to it 24 hours a day. The fact is, there are a HUGE number of idiots on the internet, and you WILL encounter a lot of them when playing games online. We should just be thankful that, in Crespo's tournament, we have found a small island of decent, competitive and honourable players in the sea of cowardly and pathetic nerds that is WormNet. Simon, the situation you just described has happened me, and probably everyone on the board, more times than I care to recall. In my experience, the best thing is to just grit your teeth, say a few fou words, and move on. If you let these dickheads get to you, then you are doing exactly what they want. It would be a shame to see a gifted player like you get put off playing on WN because of some little scumbag. Peace, UrbanSpaceman PS Simon, you might want to check out this link.... I found it on the official T17 forum. Someone obviously thought VERY highly of your Worming ability forum.team17.com/showthread.php?s=f607cfab625c8488e03e857d593843c2&threadid=7070

[glow=green,5,0]Yes, I agree with every word you said. Those that know me will also know that this sort of thing doesn't usually bother me. In this case I was roooaaaringly drunk after have consumed the following;
1. One shot of unknown south american Liqueur. 2. One small beer. 3. Half bottle red wine. 4. One Mia Tia cocktail. 5. Two shots of tequilla. 6. Two Long Island Iced Tea. 7. One B52 shooter. 8. Half bottle champage. 9. One pint lager.
All this was to celebrate being grated a permanent visa to live and work in Australia. Watch out Xaos, I’m coming to get ya!
Anyway, I stumbled on to wormnet2 after all that and then stumbled on to the message board. You can see the time it was posted was a little after 1am.. What I want to know was what YOU Richard, were doing up at that time!
As for the thread on the team17 forum. At last I am recognised for my true greatness. Yay, you shall all bow down before me! But really, i'm great. No, no.. raelly, I am. Heheh. Seriously though.. I have no idea if it is me they are talking about or not but I'll pretend it is anyway.. I've played a few of those guys.. I think.. but I bet all the old skool wormers have. Now if you'll excuse me I must go an attand to my hangover.

I usually respond to idiots like those described above by challenging them to a normal game, although a lot of them can only play shoppas.
It's best to think of them as occupying a separate sphere to ours :-)
Mr P.
PS. I have been told by more than one person that "MPH" is the best normal player alive. I have neither seen nor played him, as I ain't got w:a... nvm

In WORMnet there are so many asses... And those shoppa players... They really get into my nerves sometimes... Once i asked: "Any normal pro around here?" Then this fucker whose name i don't recall said: "There is no such thing as normal pros. The only pros are shoppa players as normal is for noobs only." ... Usually I tend to ignore these guys but sometimes I can't avoy being really really really nervous. This time I imediatly invited him to fight me in a duel but the fucker refused... You guys just don't imagine the shit I go through when I'm recruiting new wormers... P.S.: Can anyone find me a decent wormer to fill group H?

Message to Simon,
I've just come from WormNet2, where I saw one "xBODxAddsy". It would appear that he has joined what might be described as a "noob clan" lol. I told him you don't think highly of him, and he seemed surprised!. Then he left.
Just thought I'd let you know :-)
Mr P.

I agree with Crespo there are so many players that only play Shoppa. Sometimes you have 30 players in the lobby and can't get anyone to join a Normal game. They don't seem to realize that it only takes a vary basic rope skill to play a shoppa and the rest is in the "luck of the crates" I prefer to play games that I actually have an effect on the out come of the game.

There's another "worms player" we can add to the list: xHDxHonorableD as he calls himself (Honourable* lol). I played a shoppa with him, in which he was foul-mouthed and generally unpleasent. He insulted me, so I challenged him to a normal game - he told me that to him, "shoppa" is normal!
I've had a few scrapes like this before, but unusually, this idiot didn't even have the decency to play a normal game with me to resolve the matter. I hope he doesn't agitate me further.

Yup just like i say "wanna meet an idiot - enter any shoppa game there has to be at least one", reason is obvious, shoppa is the easiest game to learn ( <-- to losty ;D ) so ppl with low inteligence play that, and they are offending others and say shit like "shoppa is normal". So dont play stupid shoppers... shoppas or whatever or play only with ppl you already know (if you dont want to meet idiots ofcourse, if you want - go ahead ) my quest against shoppa continues...
