I was offering up what I thought was a worthy discussion point, I'm sorry to see that you're so shortsighted as to see it only as "thread crapping". I never claimed that it was a waste of MY time to discuss the subject, simply that the OP's intended direction for the thread was a little misguided. But your one-liners sure are zippy, right?
Maybe you should reexamine your delivery method for what it was you considered a "worthy discussion point" along with its actual content.
Stating there was no point to the thread is basically the same as stating its a waste of time, specifically your time. Your kinda flip flopping here now, just like in your initial post here, are you not (which I will get to in a bit)? Which is it you mean exactly? If there is no point to the threads existence to you, then there's no point in you posting in it either, correct, as you would be contributing to more time wasting pointlessness? Or is it that you only consider your post the ones worthy of time or existence here? Seriously, don't you have anything better to do? You are pretty persistent about checking up on and replying a thread that technically wouldn't even concern you considering you stated:
If we're claiming that terrible games are good fighters because the TG/PCE doesn't have any good ones, then where's the love for Konami's Martial Champion??
What I gather from this itself may even mean you don't consider the system to have any good fighters at all. But like I said above I would get to, it contradicts with:
Street Fighter 2 and a couple of the SNK ports are the only good fighting games,
even though you did make sure to add there were better versions elsewhere to play...
And how again exactly is the thread mis-guided by asking what everyone's favorite PCE, TG fighters are? There was quite a few fighters released, good or bad, and this is a Turbografx/PCE themed forum, or did you not notice??? And as I said before, many here mainly or solely play the Turbo or PCE and not much of anything else... The point of the thread was to get opinions from the people who play the system to get them to list their favs. Listing their not so favorite ones, just as well, sure, who cares, as it makes a good cross reference. Neither are what you did exactly however.
What you did was jab a insult in stating some of the games everyone seems to be playing suck (are you insinuating its solely up to you to decide what is good or bad on the PCE) and you cant fathom why they would like them, and what titles you even would consider are ok are ones you would never play anyway since you are too good for those ports, as they are done better elsewhere. What you could simply have done was stated the obvious, you don't like any of the PCE fighters, in a polite post, if you really felt the need to even do so, and been done with it and gone on with your life. You could have left out the attitude and insulting manner as it wasn't needed for sure.
I'm sure Michael Helgeson would have loved for this thread to be nothing more than "omg herez my list guyz! These games r my faves!! LOL", but I thought the topic deserved a more critical response
I did not start this thread, so I had no desire for peoples post to go one way or the next other then to stay on topic, which it was until you decided you had to grace the little people with your highly regarded opinion of them, and the games they enjoy playing. The very comment you make of:
omg herez my list guyz! These games r my faves!! LOL
reflects more so your low opinion of us and how we and our opinions we express appear to you it seems. No one here, myself included, talk like that. If you actually took the time to talk to us in a positive manner and do more then shit rude post out you would see that.
(call it trolling if you must, but that's a pretty limited viewpoint IMO).
Trolling is exactly what you have been doing, although ever so poorly. And as far as viewpoints are concerned, you already made it clear plenty prior you consider ours to be either pointless or limited if they don't agree with you.
Anyway, Jesus Christ, I rarely find myself having to work so hard to justify my reasons for writing something
Then why bother here? You already stated the thread was a pointless waste. Its clear to all of us here you feel you are wasting your time. Have you just hit rock bottom in the forum world and cant find anywhere else to go, or is it that no one else will have you're highly regarded opinion maybe???
this thread has taken a turn for the bizarre (in no small part by the anti-NG rantings of a certain crazy person here).
Well, its sad considering you brought over that very NG.com elitist behavior I spoke of to begin with. Then again, you get to a certain point and simply cant just blame a site for how some one acts, so maybe it simply boils down to you having a shitty anti social personality? Regardless, its obvious it bothers you that I hit so close to home, and no, that does not make me crazy, simply insightful and willing to tell you like it is, even if it hurts your feelings. If the best you have to offer up at the end is a "that persons crazy" insult then you have officially fizzled out.
So whats next in your act, the sticks and stones line? Do you have any other equally awesome 2rd grade stuff you would like to throw out there, or are you a one clown/one balloon act that just popped?
