Goodbye, Trag Options

[TragedY]

Hey guys, I think its about time for me to permanetly leave Cassino24/7, and maybe CoD altogether. Yesterday I was 57-14 with about 15-20 minutes left. There were only about 16 people in there, and lag for me was fine. Then more people eventually got in (about 20-22) and there was a lag spike. Then I could feel I was laggy, even though my ping was in the 50s. What really set me off was when I creeped up to kill u in ur spot Nothing. I came around with a thompson, and I KNOW I hit u in the head bc I have blood on and it came out. You still had time to get up and run into the middle part. I killed kowolski with the rest of my clip. Then reloading and entering in where u were, I emptied another 30 rounds at and around you. That still didnt do the trick so I whipped out my pistol trying to shoot, and u killed me full health with 2 maybe 3 pistol shots. Now Im not perfect and I know I miss frequently but that was ridiculous. I know I hit you enough to kill you over two or three times. I left that game 5 minutes before the end 64-29, barely 2:1 ratio. I know it sounds like complaining but: I get on to have fun and be competitive. I dont get on to run around spraying to kill one person, die, and mindlessly repeat the process. I want to always have awesome scores and stats. But when stuff like that happens its not fun. I just dont understand why my ping always says its in the 50-60s but when I play at the servers I feel like its over 100. And its happened too often, Im tired of it. So good luck with whoever will be crowned the next Cassino King, this ones stepping down.

I can't believe all you guys are begging him to stay. I don't play Casino, so I don't know him, but that has to be the whiniest post I've ever seen! Poor baby played a game with only a 2-1 kill ratio? WTF? Yakking on and on about how he failed to kill one guy because the bullets didn't fly his way? Welcome to Call od Duty Mofo!!! It happens. Suck it up. If you ping says 60, that's what it is. If you are the "King of Cassino" stop complaining because you have a bad game where you are still twice as good as average. If you aren't having fun anymore, by all means, move on to your next game. But don't act like some divine intervention prevented you from getting one kill, your ping meter is in error when everyone else's is correct, or having a 2-1 kill ratio is the end of the world!

I wll end with one little tidbit of advice despite myself. If you ping seems higher than it is, it is probably your computer lagging. Close some programs in background, defrag your drives, etc. But if your just tired of the game, say a friendly goodbye. Don't pretend the Gods aligned against you and you just won't take it anymore!

I can't believe all you guys are begging him to stay. I don't play Casino, so I don't know him, <<[[well there's a clue!!]]

Why is there a call for him to reconsider- let's shed some enlightenment for you>>He sounds very serious -he's my/our friend [online], and I'll/we'll miss him is why. I can't believe you'd write a post about whining if you don't even know him and all the chums he has here that don't want to see him go. If you knew him you'd know he gets a bit disgruntled in game when things aren't going perfectly as even he admits, but all that aside he's a well liked person and that 'whine' characteristic is forgiveable by those that know him since he's striving for top notch play/results.

Anyway Trag once again, make some game adjustments.. there's a sticky thread somewhere here on dealing with lag issues/ping maintenance- go through that or come back after a coupla days.

Well, all I know is that while you consider him a friend, he doesn't seem to return to favor nearly as well considering how quick he seems ready to abandon you all based on the fact one game didn't go his way. Now, perhaps I misunderstand the poor soul, and you all certainly have the right to try and appease him, but the tone of his post seemed very ungrateful and rather self-centered. However, if there is some serious, long term problem wrong with the MOB server, he may have a point. But if the problem is with his computer, or if this was just an occasional temporary glitch I think he should chill. And while I don't know him, I suppose I posted because I'd hope most people who have one bad game don't threaten to quit in the forum. If the issue is really much wider ranging than his one bad game and stems from a long term problem with the MOB server, I apologize, but if this was over-the-top whining I think even his best friends should give him a reality check. Nevertheless, I'll stay out of it from here on. I'm not a Cassino player, so I'll let the Cassion regs debate the issue.
