Bear with me.

Now I'm only a little over 1 year into the game so I'd say that I'm still quite new, so bear with me if this is a 100% normal.

Is it normal for something like this:

Thank you kind stranger, Merry Christmas too you too!

34 bounties and 3 TP's

P.S. Merry Christmas!

To me that looks like a treasure chest I'd be asking all my pals to claim them bounties and split it. But yeah seems a bit much.

Collete is a bit of a nutter. The whole "I beat on creepers" bullshit is just an excuse for him to be a bully.

He targeted me when I was a kid and posted images of me on Discord. But he's just a loser, ignore him and outgrow him. 

Well, if nothing else, at least you have this GD post. I'm sure that will settle things down.

Don't forget there's a lot of children who play Torn, you just have to ignore them, much like you would a toddler screaming for a cream cake.

Best advice already given, let faction mates claim the bounties, nothing better than free cash and ignore the troll.

I kept messaging them with positive stuff until they blocked me. Can't even have that much fun with them lol.

Not normal behaviour, but regardless of that I'm disappointed there's no option to vote suck ur mom mentos

I expect the opposite. Regardless of outcome I'm having fun with it

Welcome to torn

I love it here

(Truly)

Lemme fix that for ya!

Aw thought I could.

Ill remember for next time

When they first started the bounties I messaged him with kindness. Got blocked, so I'm having my fun here instead.

Collete is the perfect example of the worst kind of people you can find in torn online. I mean, you can just browse their post history to get a good sense of what kind of scum he is. 

But yeah I mean, 27 bounties is not much. Here's what I got for downvoting HerrSchmidt (good riddance)

Plenty of people have a huge ego and can't deal with others disagreeing with them. It's very rarely worth arguing with them, better to just ignore it and let it pass.

Holy shit, that's absurd. 

I'm definitely gonna keep my mouth shut now.

When the bounites initially started I was messaging them with a possitive attitude which I think pissed them off a bit. They blocked so im having my fun here instead

Anyway, here's Wonderwall...

Eh, it's not a big deal once you learned how to deal with it. In this case he also showed everyone what kind of idiot he was, considering he put the 300 bounties contract while I was in a termed RW, so all I got was to press early discharge 300 times. And a lot of grenades exp lol

Its not normal no. But it isnt unusual either.

Some players do look to their forum feed and decide to 'crush' little mouses who downvote their forum posts.

I do down vote some forum posts myself,  but well where is the point in doing that? where is that going to get you?

I mainly upvote forum posts, i probably thumbs up 99% of the time and down vote 1%. So you know if  i downvote one of your posts it really is bad .... 

A lot of the forums is garbage to be honest. No need at all to downvote posts you dont like. i would be at it all day if i downvoted every post i didnt like ....

I just ignore a lot of the trash on the forums.

As for Collete. A very good player and a good forum poster. I vote thumbs up on plenty of their posts Load image: cool

Play the game. Dont mess around chatting/looking at the forums you need to grow in the game.

This is absolutely normal Torn behaviour. Anyone saying different clearly hasn't been around long enough.
