So they're not all a$$h*#%s...

I was playing my last game of the Murica Monday run with Ice and
Sgt and I saw that I had a message, it was from one of our own,
trickystraw678 saying good game and what not and to which I said
and again say thank you tricky. The one that threw me for a loop
was the next message I got after replying to tricky's message,
it was from BLACK MAMBA 621 and it was a simple, yet very
powerful message, for me at least, it said "Good game". He was
the last person on the reds team on Komarin and I got the kill
on him. I gave him an up rating for his mature way of handling
getting killed. I just wanted to share something positive that
came from playing last night. Thanks for reading, have a great
day and tank on O.F.F.

Yep that's cool. I tend to praise the Reds that do a real good
job. Praised an Arty who one shotted me just as I was going to
finish off his buddy.
Unfortunately the guy thought my "GREAT Shot! Good job nailing
me, congrats on the kill!" was not to praise his ability to nail
me on the move, but an insult. Received a voice message telling
me to FO and learn how to play ahole. /sigh

let the few pecker heads ruin wanting to be a friendly gamer, I
just can't

Yep, actually happened last night. Still send out good shot and
gg message to folks and normally they respond back thanks. Gotta
take the bad apples with the good.
Had a person from Portugal spam me Sunday during a game when I
killed him and his platoon on El Halluf. The messages they sent
looked like they were face rolling on their keyboard lol.
ertrertetitetieutitgdgdghjdg dejfjsslkjskl stuff like that.
Guess they thought the notifications were going to blind me and
prevent me from firing on more lol?
Good game - ended in a draw btw had seven kills. The guy that
was left on the other side sent a gg message, so that
compensated for the spam. :beer:

I try hard to send gg messages often. I am sometimes met with
"FO", but for the most part it's "thanks." I feel strongly that
for games of this nature to succeed, we OFFers, but most
specifically old school gamers, need to be the example for
sportsmanship and a general fun gaming experience.

Well at least someone made good on sportsmanship. I'll get
better at it and not take the FO's personally.

I've sent them in the past when it was an epic final battle
between me and one other guy, I quit when one guy came back and
told me I had no skills and I only killed him because I was
lucky. I took that harder than I would F&*k off. But, I feel
like it's time to spread some gg around and if they don't like
they can kiss my grits.

Sunday night I had platooned with Oldrugger, Snufflepopper, and
Warsteiner. Can't think that there was a game that went terribly
bad at the end of the night. At least not anything worth
remembering. Logged in Monday night and I had two messages that
had been sent to me at 1 am Sunday from two different players.
They both were "hahahahahahahahaha". Really?
