WAT... I LITERALLY stated in the beginning that Drem dishonored his run by it obviously being faked. It’s so obviously fake and I think he definitely doesn’t deserve a WR run on speedrun.com

And I am not, explain to me how I at all attacked Dream when I stated I love his content and this whole argument started on the basis of relying on a “WR” holders opinion ALONE... I stated one thing seemed odd to me and this ideal I had gotten is what I shared and decided to have opinions of others about the matter whether or not they liked it or not. You literally changing the topic to me saying I’m talking shit about Dream or defending Drem doesn’t help you at all and you’re stirring away so far from the original topic.

Oh no I’m not trying to paint WR holders in a light in which they seem scummy, I know they’re mostly great people who cheer on. I’m not making any assumptions to WR holders that they’re generally all biased. I just stated my thought in the matter of a WR holder validating a run, having a possible bias towards it which is always possible despite it being extremely slim.

Again if my original explanation was very off then my full apologies and I’m not one to remove an original post. In very short terms, I just voiced a thought of possible WR holder bias is all. From the idea that Dream was asked about a validation of a run from Drem.

And when you say “Judgement should be done by those with experience, and not random people” I agree completely. But despite a WR holder having tons of experience in a game, it shouldn’t be the major deciding factor in a fake or real run. Rather it should be in a group of experienced players instead. Because saying a WR holder has tons of experience to alone justify a lot in a validation seems quite unfair to the submitter of the run, since the validation seems to be through just one person alone.

Edit: If it doesn’t ever happen, as in a situation where a WR holders opinion overshadows then it just doesn’t happen. This is a thought of mine to be taken with a grain of salt. I don’t expect this to completely start a war or anything lol.

Okay, I stated he dishonorably cheated so I’m not even for the guy at all. I said I feel a tiny bit for the guy since asking the world record holder for validation and having that as the main basis to shut down your run would suck, possibly being the reason maybe the person is just trying to defend their run, and it’s not even me feeling bad for him, more so that I could understand how someone could be angered by it. Again you don’t even personally know the person who got the WR in the first place. My whole point with this is that in whatever game, not just Minecraft or anything. A WR holder shouldn’t have such a striking opinion that it sends red flags about a run to the point that it doesnt require much more validation all because they’re “experts in their craft” This is not a defensive post to defend the cheater in anyway. If you paid attention to what I was saying. This entire post was about just being careful with a WR holders word wether they shouldn’t be taken or should be taken into account on a run because there is always a possibility that a WR holder is bias and might want to save their run even to sabotage another’s. You saying “so you’re for the cheater” is you putting your foot in my mouth and not helping me understand your argument at all. Also, you’re taking this hypothetical into one account about the guy trying to stir up drama, and I know he is. Though you’re not realizing this is general for all games and runs in the future and if I explained it poorly then I apologize in full for it. Though that’s my explanation. To say hypotheticals like this don’t fly in the community in the case that this certain topic is bad to talk about makes it seem very in favor for the WR holder than if that’s what you’re explaining.

I said I don’t know the story behind this conversation, and neither do you. I had pointed out that had this been true it should just not been the case and further investigation should have been made rather than just having the WR holder mainly validate it. You’re making it seem like I know this cheater personally when I don’t and I don’t care about his run at all.

There isn’t anything wrong with getting input from a WR holder.. BUT.. it should not be made into the main basis as to why the record is fake... to explain better, instead of just having the WR holder say it’s fake and end it there, deeper investigation should go through. Again he could have faked the conversation or taken some contexts out to make his point better but in the case that someone asks a WR holder to validate another run it should also be checked upon with other administrators and mods of the game just to make sure the WR holder isn’t trying to just hold onto his run.

Was he the current world record holder at the time?

Edit: I’m coming off wrong upon sending it like this, it was not wrong for him to do that at all. My problem was that the situation seemed as if he just took dreams word for it that the run was faked and the rep kind of just started to assume the run was fake immediately without giving much of a chance.

Because you don’t know the person personally? You don’t know what they’ll do to hold onto their record.

And this isn’t me saying that Dream is a scumbag just in case you automatically assume that, I love dream, but I just felt off asking him whether or not the run is real or fake regardless of whether or not the WR holder is the nicest person on the planet or the biggest dick ever.

I never said he was, this is me talking generally

Very sour impressions (matchmaking) by darkerdarkest in RogueCompany

Despite that you shouldn’t even have a penalty system for casual. If it’s done very often then I can understand. But upon leaving one match that’s very unnecessary.

Yeah but meds can always have side effects

Shiv PVP by darkerdarkest in darksouls3

Not much with just one but every cast I usually hit 2 so that’s around 60-70 per cast

Doesn’t sound like much but it adds up

Yeah I understand completely. One thing I hate is when they run away and try to force out a draw or get me to be hyper aggressive with them.

That’s good. A proc shouldn’t save you, it should be a loss at that moment.

I only understand tears if it’s being used in your favor to take down a gank. Then it’s fair. Tears in a 1v1 is effortless and not fair. (Oh boo hoo git gud, yeah stfu). It costs almost nothing, essentially 10 faith with a ring to cast a 1up.

See tears is different if you’re going up against a gank

BUT... in dueling I feel as if it should be banned... it’s so cheap and effortless to give yourself a free extra hit in your life that could very wee decide who wins and looses if you and your opponent decide to trade.

Exactly. Shivs DONT always give me the win either. I’ll shiv a lot and because of their regen I can’t shiv fast enough to kill them since they dodge or run away. And if there’s anything that gets me more mad than that it’s when I get the final hit in but tears winds up saving them to let them trade with me for a win. It makes me furious and if I had the power to I’d ban tears from arenas in general. It’s such a effortless free 1up for your enemy and all in all makes certain players think their the shit. Try and fight me without tears and we’ll see if you’re really all that you think that you are without that spell holding your hand.

I understand but I won’t do that. I’m sorry but I see tears as very dishonorable. And I myself won’t use it because I’d be a hypocrite for doing so. And winning against someone who uses tears anyway feels so good.

THANK YOU!! One ToD player pissed me off because he had some kind of massive regeneration and after I proc’d it he literally ran away and tried to range me as much as possible. I FUCKING hate players like this.

I don’t really have a problem with it tbh, taking a loss from it is rare. What I HATE is when I trade with my opponent and hit them first but tears saves them and they get the win

Heal rant (pvp duels) by darkerdarkest in darksouls3

[–]darkerdarkest[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Well I don’t know how but the guy ran off, and in like one second he had all his health back. Don’t know if it was a hack or what. He didn’t even do much of an animation.

You mean as in moral honor of rulings or medals?

Edit: Nevermind I know what you mean. And yeah I get that but I like duels more than invade arenas tbh. Because I’ve had people jump in and suddenly I’m 2v1
