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.

Sure you did Boxa, looked like an angry juvenile response to me.

Yeah Cynic your right, it is only a game and believe me I don't take this seriously at all, still feel a bit stupid arguing with a kid, no matter how smart he tries to be.

There was me exiting the second fight when you said KO me I have to leave for work, I was being honest and thought no I wont KO a sitting duck, I'll have a proper RM later. obviously not.

we wouldnt be in this situation if u didnt lose to me in the first place

i refuse to apologise for the fact that i didnt have time for a rematch, i had work, as i do again tonight, and there are more important things to me than a game.

however i do apologise for not sticking to my word. i did say i was going to give you a rematch first.sugarray wanted to fight for it, i explained this, and he said he'd give u the title shot if he became champ. (unfortunately i think he has lost it too). that isnt the point though, you wanted it against me.

to be honest though i am surprised that you are angry enough over a game to create a thread like this. i dont think we should be slating each other over something that is really not that important.

I've just been patronised by a 16 year old lol.I went to work today, spent time with my girlfriend and totally forgot all about this until 10 minutes ago when I logged into my computer, I work 40 hours a week to pay off my huge debts, mortgage and become a sucessful engineer, so I know what my priorities are and at the age of 23 I think I know what's important and what's not, I wasn't offensive in any way, I just made my point known, but you somehow interpretted that I was angry, which wasn't the case. Your response can also be intepretted as an angry one, it's so easy to create emotions out of words you read off a computer screen.

By the way I dont remember asking for an apology, nor expecting one, I made this thread to get a explanation to why I got screwed out of a rematch, nothing more, nothing less. So refusing to give an apology wasn't justified.

You are right on one thing though, If I didn't lose, I wouldn't have been in this situation, but I thought I was fighting someone with integrity and honesty and if I did lose, I would get a rematch no questions asked, but I didn't. Law of averages say you would eventually beat me again sometime and unluckily for me it was for the title . Bottom line is, you should have done the decent thing and rematched the next day, especially seeing as I could have knocked you out, but I done the decent thing and left the fight and waited for a proper rematch.

Lastly, there is no need to patronise me over what is and what isn't important, I treat this as exactly what it is...a game, I went to work today, spent time with my girlfriend and totally forgot all about this until 10 minutes ago when I logged into my computer, I work 40 hours a week to pay off my huge debts, mortgage and become a sucessful engineer, so I know what my priorities are and at the age of 23 I think I know what's important and what's not.

I will no longer talk about this anymore, it's done now, I'd like to move on, but in future please don't accuse me of creating threads out of anger and treating this game as my upmost priority when that clearly isn't the case. Peace

now who is being patronising
" your right on one thing though"
lmao, hypocrite

what made you think i was angry? i said it didnt matter to me and that it wasnt important so that's cool.

if you are not going to talk about it then why make the thread in the first place lol. it was completely pointless.

- dont deny you are not angry, the abuse i got off you last night proves that. and over a title lol

i said you could ko me because you were hacked off with me leaving for work. now your using the fact that u didnt ko me as some kind of excuse to make this thread.

"Lastly, there is no need to patronise me over what is and what isn't important"
how is that patronising? i was stating the fact that is not important to me - nothing to do with how you feel.

ill say one thing that is patronising though, you should check out the word patronising in the dictionary, then once youve done that ill give ya a sticker.

"I went to work today, spent time with my girlfriend and totally forgot all about this until 10 minutes ago when I logged into my computer, I work 40 hours a week to pay off my huge debts, mortgage and become a sucessful engineer, so I know what my priorities are and at the age of 23 I think I know what's important and what's not"

in the most non angry way i really dont care and whats age got to do with it, i know what is important also.

You have done exactly what children do, take everything I said out of context and dissed me.

You tell me I should use a dictionary, yet you obviously failed to read and understand what I wrote, for example I said "Your response can also be intepretted as an angry one, it's so easy to create emotions out of words you read off a computer screen." Keyword there is CAN. I didn't say you was angry, infact I know you wasn't, I was just explaining how easy it is to interpret things in your own way. There you go a simple mini English lesson for ya.

You didn't get abused and yes I was a little upset, but that was for an entirely different reason, that hasn't even been mentioned in this thread, (the lack of time for a rematch that day).

And little boy, I have English A levels, I know what the word patronising means and I used the word correctly. If you cannot see that, then further education need to be on the cards, or a more detailed analysis of what was written is in order.

"Lastly, there is no need to patronise me over what is and what isn't important"
how is that patronising? = And you tell me to look up that word, dear god.

I deliberately patraonised you back, but when you get a bit older maybe you will understand that (there you go done it again).

A sticker?, read this carefully kid, while you go off to work and work for a new playstation game, or a new dartboard, while your mum and dad worry about the bills, I work to pay debts, my girlfriend and my own bills to keep a roof over my head, so don't talk down to me, you are just a kid.

I made this thread for the reason I said before, but seeing as you have a problem reading, I'll write it again, TO GET An EXPLANATION. I didn't PM you because I don't even read pms, so just incase you don't either, I made this thread. Please tell me you FINALLY grasp that.

Your reply showed your maturity level and your intelligence, you attacked me on things, but if you read what I said properly you would have seen what was really meant. I'm done with this for real, in person it would be embarrasing arguing with a 16 year old so for me this issue is closed.

79 fights

Sugarray= 39
Nigel Benn= 39

I can pay for you tomorrow Boxa.

As for this tournament, count me in.

I'm already ranked Mikkel...1 in fact

Oh and Mikkel when you give the title can you make my record recognise it, because I have noticed that in the past when a champion wins the title this way it doesn't show as a title won on the records page, if you know what I mean. Thanks.

Not being handed the title was one of the reasons why I retired, but yeah Mikkel if you give it to me I would defend it seeing as I am "technically" the champion.

Happy B-Day Don

Yeah Vargas, join the club. I won a best out of 3 series 2-1 for the Euro title, but it wasnt handed to me.

I am done and this time I mean it. I have become frustrated by a number of things and I'll list them below:

1) Gameplay. I don't like it at all and for me personally it has taken away alot of enjoyment from the game, which is a shame. It took me well over 2000 fights to become a top 10 player, but the new gameplay not only tested all my months work, but it also became a chore to prove I can still hang in there with the best, despite major changes with the gameplay.

2) European title situation. I have waited probably 3-4 months for a challenger to actually fight me for the title and when one comes along and I beat him for the title, I STILL don't get given the belt, despite posting numerous posts and PM's to Mikkel, yet they all get ignored. We now only have 2 titles in activity and they are the lesser titles, very frustrating indeed.

These reasons may seem trivial to some of you guys, but I play this game to have fun and to win some titles. Yes some of you guys will say "who cares about titles", and some will say "give the new gameplay a chance", but everyone is different and has different goals.

I may be back some day, I can't guarantee I wont be back, although alot of vets have come back from a long lay off, so you probably will, but for sure I am taking a long break. Take it easy guys.

Nigel Benn= W 2475 L 571 D 27 KO 2335

I know what you are going to do Donny
