Why I miss old clickies: a lament...

[Mad Russian]

You've got to be kidding. I think you take your CM a bit too seriously. Are you really questioning if my commitment to CM is strong enough to warrant my being here? I'm here because it's fun. I play CM because it's fun. I'm sorry if I'm not committed enough to join you in building better life for us all through constructing a Combat Mission Utopia...you will, as you say, have to go on without me. I wish you luck. It's strange to me that you seem to view Combat Mission as some sort of high purpose and calling, that should only be enjoyed by the truly dedicated, but that's fine by me. What I really don't get is why it would bother you if I don't. I think I missed the "are you committed enough to post on this board" quiz when I registered.

Nope I was poking fun at all of us...which is what I think you do most of the time. That anything we take too seriously is a bit off the mark.

I hope you are here because it's for fun. If not then I would question that.

Not here to build a CM Utopia....just have fun with some of it. The clickies have been a way to do that.

Actually, I view CM as a game to be enjoyed by as many gamers as possible. I have not been bothered by anyone's stance on the game here least of all yours. I laugh most times I read your comments.

What seems to be happening is a general lack of enthusiasm on the boards and you at least post SOMETHING! Generally in a dry humor sort of way.

I couldn't understand why you responded the way you did..then I see that I tried to use the emotion button smilies at the top and not at the side and they didn't "stick" like I thought. I normally read my posts when I'm done but I didn't that last one. Sometimes I can't get the Smilies box to open so I can get what I want too. Not your fault or mine either really. But I tried using the ones at the top inside the text box and that doesn't work.

There should have been a :cool2: at the end and nothing like a flame or a shark. I tried to use the whistle but apparently that didn't go over like I wanted it to.

I do agree with you that I can get pretty immersed in CM at times. It's my hobby. I like my hobby. But that doesn't mean that I am a fanatic about it to the point I want to hang all others that don't share my viewpoint.

If that's the way I come across it's not an accurate depiction of my feelings.

I read all the posts BEFORE putting mine on here, so I knew full well what the thread was about.

Hope this post is better at showing my intent than the last one I posted on here.

Good Hunting.
