Not trying to offend anyone when I say this but I'm not mad and never was mad at 411 just alot of douches running around there. The forum headed in a different direction than what I liked. Kinda like EVGA pt. II. Also the forums were always setup in a hard to navigate way and still are and my dumb ass offered my ideas in the beginning just to get them dismissed like I was a retarded monkey. I'm glad they didn't get used as we wouldn't have been able to use some of those ideas here in the beginning when things were being setup. We would have looked like a copycat forum in a way. Then the kicker of the deal is when the owner showed back up and everybody was just a swingin off his nuts and then boned again! Comical I will say as well as a lesson in what not to do with a forum. :laughing:

Can somebody make me understand what the hell this forum war is all about???? I seriously didnt get a word out of it, I understand the benches and the categories but how does team and forum comes into the picture, and how would be the scoring, how to register as a team, nothing I was able to decipher.....

Can't help yah bud, its a bit too convoluted for me.

Can't help ya either. I tried reading thru it a long time ago and looked poorly setup to me as well as it really didn't make much sense to me either. That might explain why the same 4-5 forums only compete in it every time.

The Warz is just a contest, nothing more. Any website/group can get in a give it a try. Its actually ok if you get into it with your website/group.

Problems tho

People waiting for the last minute to enter scores, which makes it a mess. Rules change to often and to many benches to run in the past.

I understand and agree.... there were definitely a few that needed to go away permanently (some did) but yea.... i guess with most forums kinda like XS.... you gotta wade through the BS to find the good stuff

Yes but the site owner just showing up one day out of the blue causing all kinds of heck, then just disappearing in the blink of an eye was the last straw for me.

Oh yeah he did do a few good things when he did show up that one time, like helpping that one person go away ;)

hahahaha yes that one guy did go away which was good. he took a few with him in the process, but no big loss in my eyes.

all in all OCA is in a very strong point as long as we stay the way we are and dont let the spam bs and argumentative crap show up like XS does. :thumbdown:

XS i can hardly look at anymore... i cant even post in the news section as I have to have 500+ posts :(
