I don't think that's a very realistic question.

I don't think.

Is that realistic?

It depends what you mean by realistic... If you mean expressing an opinion of things as they actually are, not as others say they are, then, I don't think that is realistic, as my observations have led me to believe that you *DO* think. However, It is possible that *I* am not realistic in that observation and therefore my rebuttal of your statement is false. But I don't believe that, therefore I believe I am realistic, you DO think and therefore it is NOT realistic to say that you do NOT think. Of course, if you don't think, then I'm not realistic. But only you can say now. So, am I realistic?

Did anyone get that?

:doh: Whew...

I think that may have provided me with the hardiest laugh I've had in some time.

I did.

I think.

@ Nisgeis: My usual first reaction to your original comment would be "No, you don't think.", but I thought that would be rude since we don't really know each other and I try to reserve those kinds of insults for my friends. So I turned it on myself - but I think you already knew that. And I agree with NorthBeach - that was quite funny. And realistic.

@ NorthBeach: WELCOME ABOARD!:sunny:

I don't think. That's a good reaction. :D.

@ Sailor Steve- Thank you for the welcome. I've been a consistent lurker in these parts for well over a year. As well as a veteran of a few dozen careers on various classes of boats. Despite the number of downloads shown, I run only a handful I've deemed necessary beyond TMO. That DL number reflects curiosity (I like to open them up and see what's been tweaked). I generally find any questions I have, have already been addressed. And that there are more qualified torpedo pilots around to answer questions. Thus my silence. Tho, I did have to pipe in on the destruction of CV-9 a while back.

Again, thank you for the welcome. :salute:

Eh, you think maybe you could frame your critique in a friendlier fashion? You know, the creator put a lot of effort into TMO, it may not be your cup of tea but at least have a little respect for his work. :)




+5 points :up:

-10 points :down: Was not necessary to bring this up.

as a long time member i am surprised you posted something like this that so directly insults another members mod.

so you dont like it, its not your cup of tea, well many people feel the same way but they choose to just not use the mod and dont feel the need to publicly berate someones mod like that.

ducimus has spent hundreds of hours working on his mod for years and if you dont like the style of game his mod creates you could have said that without the need to add in the insulting comments.

if you see an ugly woman on the street do you smile and pass on by or do you stop and go into detail telling her how ugly she is and why you think that? that is pretty much what you just did with this thread.

you could have said everything you said if it were in the form of a question as to why things were the way they were that you didnt like and explanations would have been given as to why things are the way they are and you may have found out some things about the mod you did not know.

im not saying anyone would have given you any reason to change your opinion of the mod but it would have been a productive and informative discussion rather than just a rant to insult someones mod that was freely shared in the hope that others would enjoy it.

just my 2 1/2 cents

I critiqued TMO 1.9 a couple weeks ago, now i wish to critique the thread.

I knew a feather or two would get ruffled when i made the post. One can't say anything about anything without it happening no matter where you are. I chose my words carefully and tried not to step on any toes with my printed word.

Wilcke should be nominated as a moderator since he instantly became the peace keeper.

Ducimus, beartooth91, and kiwi_2005 gave me informative responses,
WitoldGritz went off the deep end, Rockin Robbins spoke to the masses as he baited for a war of words.

Sailor Steve and a couple other captains had fun with a play of words. Neal Stevans made a appearance to moderate.

Then Webster who is a moderator decided to chum the water by quoting 8 words of a 14 word sentance. His actions decidedly changed the interpretation of what i had wrote to suit his rant on my post.

I can understand Rockin Robbins responces since he likes to see his printed word, but Websters post is unacceptable for a man in his position on these forums and i think he should consider resigning as a moderator for his actions. I nominate Wilcke if Webster is man enough to realize the error of his ways.

you failed to point out
 

you never acknowledged the PM I sent you telling you a way to man the flak gun without changing the screen resolution, one of your big complaints about TMO. FYI it the ./Del key on the numbers pad.


Webster resign? Har Har Har. That is the funniest thing I have heard in quite some time. Webster, I still want you to be President.

Haha!

Awesome post! :haha:

It's quite refreshing to see someone who comes out and says what he thinks (and later on thinks what he said in the brig :O:).

Salute von Hogan. :salute:

PS. I like the style, not necessary what he says. :know:

Hogon, many thanks for the analysis; you are entitled to your opinion but if you ruffle too many feathers you may discover you plucked up. Webster puts a lot of effort into keeping things civil, a little cooperation would be appreciated.

so you think i should be replaced :har:

i thought you wanted to be critical of tmo WITHOUT being insulting to ducimus so my post was an attempt to let you see it from the other side.

as for the 8 words out of context, there was no need to repeat the entire rant because it had already been quoted many times over but your reaction to your own words was quite enlightening.

as neal said, thanks for the analysis and you are entitled to your opinion
