I understand that you get what you ask for, but about 6 people in this forum have an elitist attitude, and i don't dig itI hear you, but I think it's possible to disagree with each other (even 'idiots') with a modicum of respect. Even the most hated rivals can show a little class to one another. The flaming, outright hostility, and sniping (not saying you're doing this, just saying that it seems like that's where it's headed) just spirals downward out of control... then the mods get involved, some of the better posters in here decide to take a break, and it erodes the greatness of SEAPL as a region.
I've been as guilty of this kind of stuff as anyone in here.. (as one astute poster put it, I can come across as 'holier than thou'
) but fighting fire with fire doesn't do anything but make the whole environment even more volatile and unbearable.
We've got a new Season coming up, so it's as good a time as any to wipe the slate clean, let bygones be bygones, and start anew. If someone's being an idiot there are several ways to deal with it, you can engage them at their level, or you can use humor and wit to demonstrate the difference between them and you. I honestly think the league would be a better place to play if we all should a little more respect for each other, most importantly to our 'enemies' and rivals.
But for this thread, let's not derail it anymore than it has been.. Whether we like it or not, the only two teams still playing for something meaningful is ESL and LSP. They are our Garuda and Naga champions, and even if you don't respect the teams/agents/owners, let's respect the Office they represent..
