HippieChik

Just got home from watching Captain America in 3D. We enjoyed it.

Welcome!

Welcome to Urgent Fury!

are there any real prizes? i have one half done

Only for real men ...

Bahahahahahaha!

Ok, I just found where to change it and changed my timezone to CST but at the bottom of the page it says "Your current time is 11:10 pm." Is something not set right within the UF site itself because it is actually 12:10 here. OMG, I'm so confused!

How do I fix my timezone settings? My settings here on the forum are way off. It is showing that it is 5 am-ish and it is actually just after midnight. (I'm in the central timezone.) I thought I had fixed this but I guess not.

Welcome to UF!

HAHAHAHA! Now I know why I was always getting called NippleChik! I thought the thread title said "Happy Birthday Nipple." OMG!

Shane, thank you for the birthday wishes. 29 and holding. ;-) And now if I could just get this thing out of my mouth ...

What say ye?

Thanks!

Hello and welcome to UF!

UF is a console gaming community offering tournament and competitive play for clans. UF prides itself on being a community comprised of mature, respectful, glitch-free, cheat-free clans and is a great place to meet like-minded clans. Not sure if you have ever heard of tac-map style tournaments, but that is what UF is probably best known for. Glad you found us. Hang around and I'm sure you'll be happy you stumbled across our little community.

As for the clans signatures, we have many talented members.

Hello and welcome!

My husband read that book and said it was a great read.

I hadn't seen that. Good watch. Jon Stewart made him look like a total fool.

I watched an episode where they found footprints. I don't know. I guess until I see it with my own two eyes, it's hard to believe. Although they do a good job of convincing you on the show.

Don't drink them. I'm scared too. Don't think my mitral valve prolapse could handle it. But I do love me some homemade sweet tea! (That's my "energy drink.")

While I dont necessarily agree with everything Last- posts, don't you think it's comments like "Keep bringing up issues and you probably can't play here anymore" that support the concern that people who disagree with the main opinion on a consistent basis are not welcome here. I mean yes I think their is a little overkill as of late on starting threads for the purpose of disagreeing but this isn't the first time I've seen that comment stating that "If you keep this up I doubt you'll be invited to play". It's one person and while I understand that outside actions can reflect on a clan, that is typically towards clans who are unestablished and new to the UF community. One person in a clan voicing their opinion on various subjects should in no way prevent them from playing especially if everyone knows that in game they fight fair.

 

Sorry, rant over.

Community members are MORE than welcome to voice opinions. There is actually a forum section JUST for that very thing. It's called the Suggestion Box, but I have yet to see Last use that. It's not voicing your opinions that are the problem, it's HOW you voice your opinion. And I speak from experience. I actually voiced my opinion and disagreed with and "called out" UF (as Last likes to say). I even stepped down as a Ranger Officer, however, I did it in a

respectful, constructive manner.

Guess what? I was asked to continue to be a Ranger Officer and help work out the kinks. Do you know why? Not because I'm special or a part of the "good 'ol boy club" or a member of a long-standing UF clan. (I'm not even in a clan currently and haven't even gamed with the majority of people on this forum.) And there were staffers/community members/Rangers that even disagreed with my opinion. But, again, it was because I wasn't a straight-up a-hole about it. So, moral of the story, it's not WHAT you say, but HOW you say it.

Now concerning the idea of one person keeping an entire clan from participating ... it seems to me his clan needs to reign him in. Just as ONE person cheating during a match can get you the boot, so can ONE person who can't play nice in the forums. The fact is, you represent your clan both in the game and in the forums. Furthermore, UF "approved" clans also represent UF. How does that reflect on UF when you go to another forum, calling yourself a UF clan and stirring up unnecessary drama? That's a headache that UF just doesn't need.

You know, it really doesn't have to be as difficult as everyone is making it out to be. You fight fair on the battlefield and play nice in the forums and you are good. If you have concerns or complaints or suggestions, post them in the appropriate area and leave the drama at home. If you can do those things, you will have no trouble, whatsoever.

I would like to add something here along the same lines as AC (i.e. UF rules). As a reminder to all, entry into UF is not only based on your actions "on the battlefield," so to speak, but also in how you carry yourself and represent your clans here on the forums.

Last, take it or leave it, but you are hurting DE's opportunity to compete within UF each and every time you post threads that are seemingly posted to "stir the pot," causing unnecessary drama. There is a right way to do things and a wrong way to do things. And many community members have given you different suggestions as to other ways to appropriately handle yourself on these forums. Unfortunately, each and everytime, you reply with more negativity and inciteful words. What you need to remember is the very community that you so enjoy getting a rise out of, is the very community that will decide on DE's entry into UF. So if your clan is truly interested in being accepted as a contributing clan into this community and desires the opportunity to compete here, you really should reconsider your actions as of late.

Uh, DUUUUH....that's why he only gave ONE kidney this time!

Geez, Hippie.....sometimes.....

It's all that schwag from back in the day, what can I say?
