If you love the PS3, fine. But understand r that very few people here feel that way and don’t want to be hassled for their opinions.
I dont really appriciate what u said but you hit it the nail on the head with the quote above….your right…and this needs to change…i only said that stuff to show that there is no equality to this club…and the reason we dont have ps3s or other pc games is because the same people that comment in here are the same people that go to meetings. The reason we cant get a larger turn out to the meetings and the lans and on here is because of this underlying problem…Its one big chain reaction…they come on here and anybody that doesnt like anything but halo or CS is bashed which keeps people from coming back which in turn pushes people away from coming to the meetings because they dont think their voice will be heard and it turns into this thing where if he doesnt go then he doesnt go…so we get this cluster *edited* of people that only play the same games and have the same views on them…I was gonna address this problem when i was president but i never got a chance too…i have 3 ideas to fix this problem that will get 100+ people to the lans and more people to the meetings and how to get more games to be played, but im trying to do hw…i can talk about it later….and just for the record i like the wii and xbox and if u’v seen me at the lans i show no problem with either…i played them all each and every time…so relax a bit…im not trying to get rid of things…im trying to add things

and ironicly these same 10 or 15 people are the only ones who show up to the meetings which is why we play the same *edited* games at the lan events and this in turn effects the lan event turn out.we are not going to play a game if it does not get voted in.
we cant play a game that the students don’t have.
we play the same games b/c they are the most popular with this community/campus. they are fun and its what we “the community” like.
PS: what was the point of this thread?

ParticipantJosh, you need to understand just how bad you are making yourself look. I am not trying to make fun of you now, just give you some advice. When you barge into the forums after several smesters of inactivity, make posts consisting primarily of broken english, and just treat anyone with a dissenting opinion as a fool, you are not going to get anybody on your side. If you love the PS3, fine. But understand that very few people here feel that way and don’t want to be hassled for their opinions. Do you know what you look like when you constantly rant against anything that isn’t made by Sony? This. (plug plug plug)

ParticipantIt also doesn’t help you’re case when you enter in with hostility or just ranting and raving about the PS3’s superiority and listing the inferiority of other systems. You get defensive when people bash the PS3, other people get defensive when you bash their systems too. Also, you never propose any sort of solution or any suggestions to the club. The only thing that I know of that you’ve requested is a Resistance tournament. And after polling the rest of the community several times, there is no general interest in it at all. Don’t say I haven’t. YOU haven’t been to the meetings to witness it or make a case and platform for your suggestions there. From what I’ve heard, you proclaim that we’re anti-Sony, Pro-Xbox, etc. I haven’t heard this from you, but I have my sound arguments why we don’t have any PS3 tournaments.
If you have a problem with a system, address those in charge. You’ve yet to approach me about anything other than your questions at the LAN, which I addressed my reasons there. And then I heard how you’ve ranted to Adam about changes. I’ve yet to hear ANY of the suggestions regarding consoles, and should I not be the first you go to? Instead, you go to the people who possess more power. I have made myself available to all members of the community, to address their questions and concerns, to hear out their suggestions, and to provide my personal input or stance if needed or requested. If you ask a majority of the people of this club, they will agree. All I ask is that you respect me enough to address me first. If you feel that I haven’t performed my duties as Console President to the abilities after speaking with me, THEN confront the executive staff.

You missunderstand me as well……i put that up there to cause a sturr..and the best way was to talk abou that.

ParticipantStarting *edited* on here is not the way to get things done.
All you have managed to do in this post is make yourself look foolish and arrogant.
When we talked at the LAN, this is not the approach we advised you to take. I remember Adam saying to bring it up in the meeting. I suggested you get active on here and discuss things, not cause a giant stir.

ParticipantJosh, if you know that people who want to play PS3 games at the LAN then you need to show that there is support for the consoles and games. When it comes to meetings or the forums, there are only one or two people that have/play PS3. Unfortunately the majority of college students don’t have the money to purchase a PS3, therefore it is the least played console. If you bring people you know who want to play PS3 console games to the LANs, FORUMS and MEETINGS the club will see a demand for the console and game, but when one or two people are the only ones who want it, it’s hard to add a competition into the LAN when nobody had ever played the game…

ParticipantHow is PC still an issue? This is a Gaming Club. That means all gaming platforms, be it a PC or a Console. I personally play both but I like my PC more than anything else.

February 22, 2008 at 5:43 pm #38027Oh Malley
ParticipantWe have to sacrifice the cost of having some games not on the roster because we don’t have the time to do a tournament for all of them. Granted there is always free play. PC has reduced the number of tournaments and now consoles are doing the same. Just so we have time to finish the tournaments and to foster free play time into the LAN events.
If we added every game we wanted to play to the list of tournaments, yeah it would draw masses of people. But we don’t have the time to run 20-30 + tournaments.

GAMESSSSSS…like i said i dont think anything should be removed from the club…but instead things should be addedAt the last console meeting, it was decided that we would try to scale back on the total number of tournaments. Unless I am mistaken, we are now pushing for Halo 3, Brawl, Rainbow Six, and Mario Kart. If you can come up with a game as popular as those, feel free to introduce the idea. It will be debated at the next general meeting. That would be a good place to push for a new tournament.
February 22, 2008 at 6:01 pm #38031Oh Malley
ParticipantIt was Call of Duty 4, not Rainbow Six. I suggested Rainbow Six since the new one is coming out next month, and it tends to be a popular game and series.

your looking at it all wrong its not about the tournaments…your right tournaments should be scalled back…but that doesnt mean you can organize your own thing while your at the lan…thats what iv always done…and thats what im gonna do at the next lan weather or not a tournament for the ps is voted in…its about fun..not prizes
February 22, 2008 at 6:17 pm #38036Ephraim
ParticipantWait, are you talking about free play? You are already allowed to bring a PS3 to the LANs or invite people to play it somewhere at any time. I’m not getting what the issue is here.

ParticipantThe point to this whole thing didnt work out the way i planned…i didnt mean to upset anyone things just didnt come out rigth and then i just got angry too…if u follow the posts you can get the idea of my intentions somewhat near the end, so i wont explain it cause im tired of typing.., just relax i have and have always had good intentions for the club…iv been apart of it since it was a baby…i wouldnt be wasting my time to even explain myself if i didnt care, id be playing games or somthing…sorry guys
