Joker: An Apology
« on: August 22, 2008, 02:47:24 pm »
Background:  IMO, Joker [Tesla] is a good player, and does a remarkable job tearing me a new one with either the m79 or mp5 over on Fracs.  He also has a gostek worked up that looks about as much like the Joker as you can do, and has a bunch of catch-phrases from Batman:TDK bound as taunts.  So he has my respect for having the complete package, rather than just being a n00b in a costume.

Last night, I'm having an awesome time over on "Elite: One Shots", when Joker [Tesla] logs on. 

I immediately recall that he usually manages to be in character to the point that the constant taunts and laughing really gets under my skin; I don't begrudge him that, but it does get to me.  So to give a friendly jab back at him for that, I put up a kick vote (hey, it's a pub match after all), expecting to get a few laughs from anyone who would bother to read it:

Reason: Leveled Gotham General

To this, he retorted "Fear?". I pounded F11 and replied "YES"...

... and then the vote percentage was met and he was booted from the server.  Oops.  :-[

So this one's for you Joker.  I'm sorry about that; I had no idea the other goons logged in would actually kick you on what was obviously a joke.  I'll stick to the chat window for now on.

That's why you don't do sarcastic votes.

I hope you're not being sarcastic. :) Granted, I was a little glib since we're talking about a video game here, plus the circumstances are a bit humorous.  But I mean it when I say that I'm sorry - I don't kid about that kind of a thing.

Yeah, I'm sure a 24 hour kick from one of hundreds of Soldat servers had him in tears.
Personally, I think you're taking it a bit overboard. If it had happened to me I'd just laugh even harder knowing my sacrifice was in the name of humor. It's just a game. Why so serious?

I attend grammar school, last grade, and ignorance is all around me. Well, good for them. Ignorance is bliss.

Lol, nice one.
It isn't that big of a deal though. And this 'Joker' probably doesn't even use the forums.

I see what you did there.

Eh.  It's really a matter of sportsmanship - a personal code of conduct thing if you will, nothing more. :)

Back in 131 I joined a server with the name Batman.
Someone left the server and came back as Joker.
Someone else left and returned as Robin.

We fought crime!
