And no. It didn't need to be said.

You should look within and consider improving your posting cohort for season 40.

I do what I want, when I want, to whomever I want. And I certainly don't answer to the likes of you.
I'll vote however I like.

Round 15 vs Dragons

3 - T2B_
2 - Strigoi
1 - DragoDelph

 

[Headless]

Ha ha ha, you see the pattern forming with Bears threads and you wonder why lol.

One common denominator.

Surely not the Las Vegas Bears of all teams?

Bombers R15

3 - Bears posters for tolerating the week.
0 - unwanted guests
0 - Bombres

Thread 0/5. Bombers need to find a way to stand on their own two feet and not openly encourage outside input. Over 200 posts from non-bears or bombers team members. A captain that openly encourages it by engaging in the behaviour. Not even not so subtle retorts on the matter saw the message get through. Usually a very placid go with the flow 300+ gamer but **** me we played the OOB already.

And here you thought we were Bombers lite? When in fact, Baghdad is OOB lite. What a revelation!

I hear what you're saying Headless.

Some teams just don't mesh or get along. It really isn't the big deal some like to make it out to be

A one-off? Sure.

Where multiple teams share that same experience? It’s time to consider inward.

That could be said about a lot of team match ups, honestly.

Bombers have had a distinct posting style for a number of seasons. That is fine, more power to them, glad they are enjoying themselves. That posting style, to me is jarring and hard to engage with. Over the seasons I have tried to try to make it work but it doesn't. Do I ask the Bombers to change to adapt to me and my preferences? No, because that's asinine and selfish. I can't speak for any other player on the league being willing to try new things for other sides.

For the Bears specifically since everyone wants to ****-on them at the moment: for each Bombers type game where it hasn't been great (doubling up this season hasn't helped) they had one like the Gumbies where it was great. People will always focus on the negatives and any excuse for a pile on.

I hope the Bombers had a nice week against the Bears. I hope they have a nice week against whomever they are up against.

You can be the sweetest flavour of ice-cream, but some people don't like ice-cream.

Bit of a victim mentality to go on about the bears when all I did was point out that if multiple teams are sharing the same horrid experience that the common denominator might want to consider their part in it? I didn’t name teams nor did I have a team in mind.

If the shoe fits for you though…

You quoted me who was talking to someone in relation to the Bears. Don't pretend like you weren't baiting my response.

What a load of absolute horseshit!

Let’s look at the week shall we?

Show me where the Bears tried to engage other than Art Vandelay_ coming straight out of the gate with having cheap cracks at me.

I don’t see where you tried what so ever… you’re posting style is much the same as a Jatz cracker. Dry and salty!

Then let’s follow up with your pal Senor M who posted in gifs which was actually funny bc he’s far from funny! Until he broke his 150 gif cap and then started talking then all hell broke lose again.

I engage off others banter… you engage, than I engage! If you get your campaigner on then I too shall get my campaigner on!

Even the likes of tony and por_please_ya welcomed other visitors so your ice cream call!
Sure I get that but ice cream is enjoyed by most…. Some of the Bears allowed it to drip and melt into puddles so stop with your boo hoo blame crap bc the mirror that is telling you ‘You’re the fairest in the land” is ****ing lying straight to your faces!

So yep! Look within! Stop blaming other clubs for the Bears short comings!

Bears still have over 20 different unique posters for the week. We may not have been as active as the Bombers or the gate crashers but we were there.

I don’t see where you tried what so ever… you’re posting style is much the same as a Jatz cracker. Dry and salty!

I specifically said in my votes that I wasn't around much. I still had over 40 posts. The thread moved at a breakneck pace and a lot would have got lost in the shuffle of it all.

Then let’s follow up with your pal @Senor M who posted in gifs which was actually funny bc he’s far from funny! Until he broke his 150 gif cap and then started talking all hell broke lose again.

I would encourage all posters in the league to post how they think

I am not blaming anyone, for anything because there is nothing wrong. Our clubs don't get along. And that's OK. I'm not saying the Bears are the greatest posting unit in the entire history of the internet. I'm not lying to anyone. I have held this stance for a very long time. Bears issues or triumphs aside.

I would hope that those that are saying "to look within" do that with themselves. Wouldn't want the league full of hypocrites would we?

I'm glad that you got to enjoy somethings from the week, DP. I would hope with how much you were engaged that you somewhat enjoyed yourself would never try to change you, or the Bombers.

Had a fabulous week mate! Always do!

And deservedly so.

Stick to the matches you're in. 390+ (21%) from outsiders, largely encouraged by you.

 

[Kilroy]

Let’s be honest.

A thread/competition like the MVP, particularly where a score is given for the matchthread, is probably your most powerful tool for bantering against other teams and their individual posters.

Why would you forego the opportunity to make a statement and assert your “rightful” place in the scheme of things? To drop the persona and give credit where it’s due?

Why would you bother?

Bears understand this better than anyone. Make up for your own lack of engagement by suggesting you tried but it was the other team’s fault for not playing by your rules.

Brilliant!

 

[DemurePrincess]

And will do it again! Every damn time!

Some people don't want to argue all week and are there for fun, the unsociable persona the Bears are getting is absolutely deserved and if you don't want to be friendly just don't post, simple as that.

Sorry Chippy …. You did! I class you as a chipmunk not a Bear anyway! x
