i'm raising concern regarding the torn newsletter, i'm sure it's being handled with due care but there is a clear trending pattern all across the world where companies pander to certain "modern conventions" and this ends up tarnishing what we all loved and enjoyed,

"“Regarding the Mr & Ms Torn event, In light of the significant evolution of the internet and societal values in recent years, I fear it's now become outdated. There's a plan to bring back similar official image-based events in the future, but they'll have a different format that is hopefully more modern.”"

as we've seen with Marvel, Starwars, budlight, the ghostbusters remake, and countless more franchises going "more modern with a different format" they have all in fact, started going bankrupt, all of their products tank in terms of user ratings, and outright enjoyment,

i truely hope that this isn't the case here, this is a crime simulation, nothing more, nothing less,


and i personally was really looking forwards to taking part this year..............

these companies have all lost hundreds of millions of dollars, the new star wars trilogy is a disaster that long time fans have turned their back on,
Marvel lost all it's fans with Ms marvel, where even the actress was so narcissistic and rejected by fans yet still propped up as a diversity hire,
and budlight again lost hundreds of millions of dollars with an advert pandering to the trans community,

facts homey, chedburn will lose alot of money if he decides to follow the same trend,

Hey all,

a fresh company called "Rips and rReps" just opened up near you! not got enough work experience to get hired at other places? or perhaps feeling like making a difference with your already impressive skillset? whatever you're interests, there's one thing we all have in common, and that's gym gains,
so come on down, hand in an application and help make a new and wonderful place for citizens to get ripped!

RW matchmaking needs revising · · 4 likes

Hey everyone,

I want to address a blatant issue in RW matchmaking system, this is not a bug or an exploit, it is how i would describe as a poor and outdated search engine,

The biggest issue, is a lack of data handling for matchmaking, right now my current matchup, as a faction that has around 23k respect and the highest level is 25, we are being matched against factions with 250+ max chains, 130k+ respect, and multiple members lvl 40-70, situations like this should feel like a once a blue moon type of deal, but this is an average war for us,

When the website's ranked matchmaking takes place, it isn't factoring any real fairness, it doesn't care if the enemy will completly stomp you, to put it bluntly, at present, factions and RW's feel locked off to players who have not been around for years,

this is counterintuitive on many fronts, and in my personal experiences with other players who are involved, this simply breeds frustration on a level that pushes new or returning players away,

i understand that there is an elemtent of toughing out the grind, but the grind isn't comparable, most people want to see reward for their efforts after 6 months, but this current system does the exact opposite of that, it puts you against unwinnable odds constantly and says "well you tried your best"

i don't think this is a great model, both in terms of gameplay/user experience, nor in terms of business,

i would like to see the system revised, so that it factors gym stats and other query functions that allow for much closer, and fairer fights,
let the level 70's bash eachothers faces in, when you pit them against people like me? all that is being said is that we are spending a weekend in hospitall with no rewards, whilst the enemy bores themselves into free cache's, is this the experience we all want? where warring serves no purpose besides milking ingame currencies? i truely hope not,

calm down mate, using caps isn't going to win this pathetic attempt of a rebuttal, 

i already called out this arguement previously, are you so dense to repeat it assuming it's something new? 

"(expected nonesense from you - "oh, but they are optional, you don't have to play the game") - literally the defintion of "mandatory""

again, i know what a contract is, and i refer you back to the legal term "null and void" get familiar with it, 

ahhhh, again with the name calling, nope, that hans;t won the arguement for you neither, sorry but no dopamine for you here you strung out little bitch, 

oh, and i'm not the one resorting to all these dumb ploys like using capslock to demonstrate just how stable i am, 
if i'm unstable, you are going into nuclear with a visible half-life by comparison, 

grow the f**k up mate, 

in terms of law yuor dick is tiny i can barely even see it, 
you have nothing, you've clearly never even been to a court room, you can barely quote actual terminology, and constantly backpeddle on a single strawman point acting like it's the biggest gotcha of the centuary, it truly is pathetic and so are you, 

have a good day, i'm done with you miserable lot,

not bullshit
but out of the 20 million or so bodies they fount in the gulags, there were not 20 million trials recorded, 


try using facts to support your arguement, instead of being a butt hurt bitch,

i consider stranding up to social bullying to be rather productive, but then again we clearly have a different set of values in life, 

you are right on one thing, i've wasted enough of my time on you low lives, 

peace

terms of service are not optional, i cannot play Torn without accepting terms of service = not optional, 

Oxford defintion (Optional - adjective - available to be chosen but not obligatory)

meaning that torn Term of services are "obligatory" and not optional, 

no shit sherlock, i understand what a contract is better than you and don't need lecturing on the subject by a halfwit who's evidently never attended court,  but keep stroking your own dick fella, it's all that really was, a bit of public masturbation,

more Ad hominem?  come on mate, at least f**king try!

can you actually make a provable point with citation without resorting to name calling, Ad hominem, strawman, or some other form of logical fallacy or social abuse?
you don't debate people with mental issues? that's a bold faced lie and a half, you've been engaging this debate for a couple days now at least,, 

you sir, are a liar and a fraud, nothing more, 

for a level 100 you set a terrible example for this community,

factually wrong on all fronts, besides me agreeing to be here, 


no they are not optional "terms of service" are considered mandatory in order to use the goods or services offered, 
(expected nonesense from you - "oh, but they are optional, you don't have to play the game") - literally the defintion of "mandatory"

however, contracts cannot include terms that undermine the law, 
just because you paid that hooker for the best 2 minutes of your life, and she agreed to it, making it contractually legal, and consentual, you still engaged in prostitution, which is against the law, 

and no mr scarecrow, before you think you finally got a brain here, escorts are still prostitutes just under a different name, and abuse plausible deniability to avoid legal pursuit, "oh no, i wasn't being paid for SEX i was being paid to spend time with them, and whatever happened between two consenting adults, happened" 
of course some degenerate places like the netherlands make it legal in places like amsterdam, 

tangent aside, 

i am the hot-shot legal veteran i claim to be, with the record to prove it, 

and with regards to contractual law, i cite specifically the term "null and void" which means that a contract under certain conditions can be disregarded after signing, 

so if Torns terms of services allows for online bullying, Libel and hate crimes, then that is not enforcible by law, 
and good luck getting a court to uphold something like that if it does, 

of course, you'd of known ALL of this, if you wasn't backpeddling with google search as your personal aid,

lmao, 

prove every last one of those bluffs you just made, then i'll respond further,

what circ de sole gymnastics was that supposed to be mate? i'm clapping all the same, it was brilliant, 


i quite clearly stated "i can prove with record that i am more qualifited than a registered soliciting firm"

and i'd be happy to provide those records upon request to those who have tictac breathe, 

but since you are not currently asking for the proof, i can only assume you are not here for honest reasons, and are just looking for further ways to distantly communicate to us all that you was abandoned as a child, 

This is a communist game ·

a claim i can prove with record, 

better yet, i can prove with record that i beat solicitors in relation to legal matters, 
effectively i can currently prove that i am more qualified than a registered soliticing firm, 

i didnt say i represent "others", now yu are putting words in my mouth to suit your own egotistical framework, 

but again, nice ad hominem, 

look mate i know it's a picnic, but did you have to bring so many straws? you know there was a ban on plastic straws because its damaging to the environment? if you could stop littering everywhere with this garbage that would be great

ahh, the dick measuring contest is it?

let me be clar about my actual track record, 

i've sued the department for working pensions, and won
i've sued my landlord for disrepair, and won
i've sued the solicitors that i hired to represent me in the landlord case, for mishandling my case, and won, 
i've been to court for council tax, and won, 
i've been falsely accused of littering, contested that at court, and won, 

i'm currently taking google to court, via the UN special counsel for human rights, 
the DVLA to court for breach of data protection, and abuse, 
theDWP for crimes against humanity with proven genocide against disabed citizens, 

you think UN members are not bound by the Universal declaration of human rights? ok, quote the part from the document i cited and prove that then, 
you didn't, whilst claiming you are better than may, 

you are such a pathetic individual, you are bullying me via the bounty system and think that has any baring,

false, i know what every word that i use means, under the oxford dictionary and the black;s law dictionary for legal terminology, 

when you've represented in court as many times as myself, you tend to KNOW what the words mean, 

honestly, i felt like you didn't even try here, actually put some effort in and you might establish even half of an actual point, 

peace

i have clearly stated i'm from the UK, the first ammendment is from the USA, 

good to see the strawmen are out today,  moving on

"then why the hell are you posting it in forums, instead of reporting it to federal authorities, or opening a court case against them?"
well because court is regarded as the final solution, meaning that all other possible means of resolving the conflict should be explored first, if these means fail, then seek court intervention, 

if you knew anything you'd know the basic principle of litigation at least, 

enjoy the straws,
