I have many, many times responded to your direct arguments.
If you're honestly believe this, then there's one of two things at play. Either you think regurgitating the same broad-strokes arguments without actually relating it to the points I make counts as directly responding, or you are illiterate and can't process what I've written, such that the most you can do is provide anecdotes and assign false cause. You consistently manipulate the subject, and it was you that guided the whole topic into a soapbox for you to rant about the weapon mechanics of TM 2012.

Shouldn't you pick your best stuff that you want addressed?
What I post is entirely relevant to the thesis I've posted again and again. But it doesn't align with your agenda of justifying your hate for the game, so you ignore it and go on unrelated tangents so you can feel comfortable in your bubble not needing to consider counter-evidence.

Now in regards to the server, your claim is that the times are only for that month? If you click on that specific person though, doesn't it show you the entire server history?
You displayed that you weren't even aware you could view lifetime stats by selecting players on the leaderboard. You wouldn't have said oblivious things like suggesting competitive players must ignore ranked 100%. Even if you did select the players and look at their lifetime stats, calling the newbs still makes even less sense. I just added up the times of the top ten on the monthly leaderboard currently (LosAngelesGod, verstatilechimp, patrick5475v, Knight_voyager, FriedEggsOnaNail, damn_u_tm, steveKO59, DuckD0dgeRzzz, nnb1989 and WHIT3BOY_77_) and the average lifetime stat is
+39 days of in-game playtime. If you had been aware that you could select their names, you would have not called players with an average time of nearly forty days newbs. Since you've logged in a couple times now, the most logical explanation is the you didn't realize you could select a player to view lifetime stats, and upon realizing you tried to save face for not knowing and looking like a doorknob in response to my posts. Case in point, you failed to read what I had posted and then attempted to rationalize your post, further proving you'll do anything to prevent you're admitting you're wrong on even straight up facts, hence why it's impossible to make any sort of progress in a conversation with you.

He remains one of the best TMBO AND TM2PC players of all time.
If you know them so well, what is their online handle? If their name commanded respect, then why not use that name on TMA rather than post as a sleezy alt? For that matter, what was your account when you had been active here and involved in the debates? I would love the see if you guys specifically "called everything" as The Truth claims. Not that I don't believe you, but fact checking would be nice.

Are you wrong Muddeh about healths because the full healths (semis) drive randomly?
Can you not read? I stated that we stopped playing with the health semi and JYD's health taxis because those took away from the game's depth. It's not relevant to the way we play. Point being, the only way to play with timed, static and partial health packs in team games (which is the only way health makes sense) is in TM 2012.

Ohhh wow, I spent a whole 10 minutes making a post!
If it takes you ten minutes to compose nearly a thousand words, then no wonder you miss the entire point of the argument. That's simply enough time to mindlessly rehash the same anecdotes you always do without even putting thought into what I had posted. And it shows.

I'm not up for the regular shit show but I'll gladly do an alternate shit show. I'll see ya tonight!
I sent you a PM. Tell me your PSN ID so I can add you, or otherwise provide me some other form of communication to arrange this.

Most of the people that still play the game regularly to this day are the people the online luckily works for.
And again, what recent experience do you have to be able to claim you still have to be "lucky" to play today? All of us had terrible experiences in the early months, some worse than others. You're simply throwing out blind assertions to say that if you were among those who had the most trouble in the early months, you would still have trouble that's disproportionate to the rest of the playerbase today. You imply a burden of proof while, to this point, having been unwilling to experience the game first hand.

Neither one of them is part of the main TMA crowd that already moved on at that point.
Most of the players had moved in less than three weeks? I thought you said you guys stuck with the game for months before giving up. You think you could replicate the competitive environment which the effect of killstreaks and timed health require in that short of a period of time? You guys would have barely learned the battleground and gotten accustomed to driving at that point. Aside from the that, what would be so hard about telling the JYD not to heal, or for that matter not taking the heals they offer? It's not like the chat is a secret in this game, it wouldn't be hard to tell them to cut it out.
The Truth wrote on 02/12/17 at 22:54:59:
Sorry buddy, you don't get to retract it cause you slipped up and told the truth. Proving what I was saying was correct.
Then you would also say your lying to say the effect of killstreaks and timed health are mirrored in TMBO, which is impossible since they don't exist. And honestly, you're going to nitpick me to that extent? You can't deny they truth. I'm not altering my opinion, I'm correcting a fact.
The Truth wrote on 02/12/17 at 22:54:59:
Now you say you never insisted it would take a long time. Thanks once again for ADMITTING that my statement was the truth.
You can't read, can you? I responded asking when I insisted that it would take you a long time because you were putting words in my mouth and making it as though I have something to prove to you. I never said it wouldn't take you a long time. I said it would depend on how frequently you play and what level of players you compete against and learn from. Try again.

Not quite sure how logging into the game and recording spawn times is you "calling it"
He proved he is not an authority on TMBO to the extent he claims because he had to be objectively corrected by a TM 2012 player about his own game.
