Primal Phoenix got a reaction from Mersopolis in Dreams
I had a dream that I got fired and later the same day I found out that @Huff had applied to replace me. I then send him a strongly worded email detailing why we could no longer be friends.
What I'm trying to say Ben, is don't steal my fucking job.

But Ryzen is an extremely compelling platform?
Or are you talking about FX processors, because THAT was a meme.

No one cares. Keep your notes to yourself in the future for the sake of the rest of us, thanks.

Primal Phoenix reacted to Wulff in E3 2017
I didn't contend that. You're confusing me trying to outline more clearly what I believed Paero's point was with my own opinions. You seem to be arguing with me from a totally different base of understanding. You haven't showed why anything is bullshit, all you've done is jump down the throat of another user without reading his post properly, misrepresenting what he said in his post out of either ignorance, laziness or malice, given him unwarranted attitude for no fucking reason other than your own misplaced outrage and then continued to argue points that no one with half a brain would ever disagree on.
By the way, it's been several posts now and you still haven't showed us where Paero stated that he didn't want high level players to receive their "due renumeration"
.
Do you really think that this conclusion is an honest summary of Paero's original post. Do you really think that?
You should probably retract your last four or so posts in this thread as a whole tbh.

Right, it leads back to what you said. Not what Paero said. Originally you concluded that Paero quote "wanted to be able to watch an esport without the players getting any of the remuneration they deserve from being at the top of a highly competitive and incredibly skilled game" unquote. I ask again, at what point did he say that? You seem to be reaching conclusions that simply does not exist in his original post and rather you are extrapolating meaning from his words that isn't there.
Posing the question of why high level players should even bother playing the game if they can't make a living out of it seems incredibly redundant. Anyone with the slightest bit of common sense would be able to conclude that they shouldn't. If there is not enough money to go around within a competitive scene of any given game, then it would be a disastrous financial decision for anyone to try to make a living off of it. If you start letting a game you love and the time you dedicate to playing and improving at it influence your daily life, such as the example you give with showing up for work late or tired, then you're a fucking idiot. Nothing more to it and I am not sure what argument you're trying to establish with that example.
As for your point about competitive scenes without proper monetary support artificially limiting the highest skill limit that players are able to show, I agree.
I don't agree completely, but I agree to an extent. Will you concede that it isn't necessarily a problem for all competitive games? Are you of the belief that if there isn't enough money in the competitive scene of a game to incentivize players going at it as a full-time job and pushing themselves to limits they would not be able to while also maintaining an education or a job outside of playing the game, then the game is not worth the time or the effort? What do you think of the idea of letting a game run its natural course and not trying to keep it alive by pumping money into it? Do you think that no one should ever bother playing games competitively because it might die out after some time and in that case the time investment is not worth it? Do you think that games that develop regional communities independent of each other are worse than games that incorporate everyone internationally?
I'm not even sure what the point of this paragraph is. Please elaborate on why stating facts that no one has disagreed with was necessary.
I never stated it was accurate for all games, it was an unspecified example I propped up in order to make Paero's original point more clear. You're arguing points that no one ever contested.
Keyword being 'probably'.
