oh, I have nothing against straight-forwardness ( is that a word ? ). Being a mod, I cherish it.Cougar wrote:

well, as far as I can see, the mod only edited your post in such a way that it would comply with bf2rs.com forum rules. You seem to use swearwords a lot in your posts...
As far as I am concerned, they took your post here as what it was, a rant. Consequently, some bf2rs.com forum members chose to voice their opinion in an "uneducated" manner, much like you.
What did you expect ?
I am sure they would have responded in a more decent way if you had chosen to present your "arguments" accordingly.
But you did forget one thing, I am Cougar. I tend to be very straight forward and frank when I am saying something, very "no holds barred" if you will. I wrote that rant and view those opinions in a way that would sway myself if someone else was dictating to me. It's just my style.
To some it's a flaw, to me it's a common characteristic and asset.
What I am not sure about is what reaction you were expecting from the guys at bf2rs.com. You surely were not expecting them to respond seriously to your rant ?
The way I see it you had two options:
1. to get on the bf2rs.com forums and post an educated comment about the RoE, detailing in polite, but straight-forward words what could be improved about them in your humble opinion. Constructive criticism, if you will.
2. to get on the bf2rs.com forums and simply rant about the RoE, offending as many of the hard-working staff over there as possible
You obviously chose 2. I am in no position to criticize your decision, but I have to admit I wish you'd have chosen differently. That's all.
