Teraku Posted January 21, 2013 Posted January 21, 2013 Why is it that every time I mention Technic in any place other than this forum, some FTB extremist just has to show up and say "Technic doesn't have permissions you suck", and then ignore everything anyone says other than "Technic is bad"? I believe I even got banned from a Counter-Strike server a while ago because I had published a screenshot to Steam which was taken in Technic. It sometimes makes me wonder: Why? Why are some people such assholes? And why do they obsess over "legal" issues in what is basically virtual legos? I don't know. Just had to vent a bit, sorry. Quote
vitorsly Posted January 21, 2013 Posted January 21, 2013 People are dumb because the only people are humans. My aunt's dog is more considerate then a lot of minecraft "lawyer"/ players. Quote
GreenWolf13 Posted January 21, 2013 Posted January 21, 2013 People are dumb because the only people are humans. My aunt's dog is more considerate then a lot of minecraft "lawyer"/ players. It's also probably more intelligent. Quote
Xylord Posted January 22, 2013 Posted January 22, 2013 It's also probably more intelligent. "Okay, now say "Technic doesn't have permissions"! Yes, just like that, you're a good boy! Who's a good boy? Yes, you are! You're a good boy! Have an adf.ly link!" Quote
Lothos Posted January 22, 2013 Posted January 22, 2013 wait, a technic screenshot ( how exactly as modded MC is modded MC regardless ) on your steam account is relevent to counterstrike how? Quote
Teraku Posted January 22, 2013 Author Posted January 22, 2013 wait, a technic screenshot ( how exactly as modded MC is modded MC regardless ) on your steam account is relevent to counterstrike how? One of the admins looked at my Steam Profile (Probably to check for VAC bans) and saw a screenshot I made in Technic as one of the most recent. Admin told me to "fuck off and go play a real modpack like FTB", and banned me. Quote

He saw the caption under it. I also added Technic as Non-Steam game, under the name "Technic". So it was grouped under the name "Technic" too. Quote
fidchelle Posted January 22, 2013 Posted January 22, 2013 Hey, we all need to vent every now and then. Try not to let the ignorance get to you though or you're only letting them win. I never quite understood the pseudo-political bullshit going on in the minecraft modding community right now. Every time I see people talking about minecraft, as if they were making a presidential speech I always think to myself "All this over a video game?" Either way you have my apologies for the CS banning incident but honestly, if you think about it; An admin that would ban you over something so trivial as what type of mod-pack for a game you play... He/she probably doesn't run a community you would enjoy anyway right? It's only speculation but I tend to judge a person based on actions. Quote
sonic99190 Posted January 22, 2013 Posted January 22, 2013 wow that is bad! I cant believe people are so mean Quote
theprolo Posted January 22, 2013 Posted January 22, 2013 I just stay in this little sane corner of the Internet and hide. Quite honestly though, if someone said "OMG U PLAY TECHNIC U R NUB" and banned me from something, I would thank them for letting me know how much of an arsehole they are before I did anything I would miss. I rarely play Technic/Tekkit now(I use the Launcher though - Custom modpacks rule!), but there are probably some people who would still take offence from the fact that I've played it. The simple fact is that they aren't worth my, or your, time. Just ignore them and have fun like games are made to let you do. Quote

The first few times, I tried to explain what REALLY happened, but they either didn't believe me or they thought that I believed Technic was a private modpack. Or some other stupid BS. So now I just go "whatever" whenever someone feels the need to say "Technic is evil". @fidchelle Yeah, when I get banned over something stupid like that, I just think "Well, a community with prejudices like that isn't for me anyway".

nedned2k Posted January 22, 2013 Posted January 22, 2013 It's unfortunate that the extremely expressive minority of stupid and ignorant people usually outweighs the majority of internet users who are actually decent people. Quote
theprolo Posted January 22, 2013 Posted January 22, 2013 Just as true as it ever was. This has officially made my day. It's even better than discovering I'm a higher poster than you :D Quote
Cheap Shot Posted January 22, 2013 Posted January 22, 2013 This has officially made my day. It's even better than discovering I'm a higher poster than you It would make a lot of sense if it turned out you were posting while high. :iceburn: Quote
theprolo Posted January 22, 2013 Posted January 22, 2013 It would make a lot of sense if it turned out you were posting while high. Yeah, those smarties make me do crazy stuff. Quote
sonic99190 Posted January 22, 2013 Posted January 22, 2013 ok... maby the op wan just a mean idiot Quote
sonic99190 Posted January 22, 2013 Posted January 22, 2013 what I mean by that is that he/she hates technic and hates people who use it Quote
Teraku Posted January 22, 2013 Author Posted January 22, 2013 -snip- Just as true as it ever was. Oh man, that's beautiful. Quote
freakachu Posted January 22, 2013 Posted January 22, 2013 ok... maby the op wan just a mean idiot what I mean by that is that he/she hates technic and hates people who use it what are you talking about, and why can't you ever contain it in a single post? Quote
LazDude2012 Posted January 22, 2013 Posted January 22, 2013 what are you talking about, and why can't you ever contain it in a single post? Remember, stupid has an excessively low viscosity; it spills everywhere, into 2, 3, or even 4 posts. Quote
holymage! Posted January 22, 2013 Posted January 22, 2013 (and i snip this comic) Just as true as it ever was. i am not sure if this is better then the HOTS opening cinematic or not when did this whole thing start anyways? also keep in mind that most people that play MC used mommy's credit card to buy it, they really know nothing at all about technic/tekkit. (acually my friends younger brother is one of these people, i constantly get asked how to make his frame ship work...now i just tease him about monkey quest and he shuts up pretty damn quick...well least about tekkit ) Quote
