Then when you mention it you get the "its only a game" comment which is even more annoying.
You can't just be as irritating as possible then "its only a game relax LOL !" unless your about 6 years old.

A game is something that you can and should take serious to some degree, at least try to follow the unwritten rules and treat other players with respect, if not you cause alot of frustration to other players.
When you ARE wrong in some rare cases then at least have the decency to admit it and appologize, even if you think someone else is overreacting.



Well said mate. Yeah I see what your saying, I did say it's only a game and you are right, EVERYONE does take it seriously to some extent, all I was trying to say badly (as it looked like I was contradicting myself) was that I understand it is only a game and there are other important things in life than OB, but it didn't stop me being frustrated with the lack of RM so I posted this thread for an explanation.

The last paragraph was spot on. A simple apology would have done, and this would have all blown over in an instant , but because of his reaction, the total lack of respect and total disregard for what happened, when he was blatantly wrong did cause frustration. So Boxa, YOu are the one that blew this out of all proportion, when I had every right to be a bit peed off. But yeah I'm well over it now. In future I'll just defend a title against people I know will rematch.

Larry is right. When I was coming up I followed the rules and when a semi new player(not you boxa) would get a KO over me and then not wan't to RM. I getd mad and they say you nerd blahblah.




I was not refering to you boxa. Now in some cases some thing comes up during a title fight and if I win I try to explain to the former champ I have to go and will RM asap.

This has been settled allready many posts back. Don't bump up topics that can only start another flame war guys, It can do more harm than good and only aggrovate the situation further. I think everyone involved has said all they have to say, I'll lock this up now. If Nigel or Boxa want to discuss this further then PM me and I'll open it again for you guys but I don't think there is any need to do so as you have both clearly stated your arguments and resolved this matter as best as you're going to/can

Regards

Donny
