"Respect isn't a given, you need to earn respect"

I think that sentence is what stood out..... it's a not a good way of approaching relations with others in life.

Well when they get disrespected and ask for some more respect, you criticise them for asking... what else do you mean?

surely people should treat people the way they themselves want to be treated, if that means they'm abusive towards someone, then surely they should accept the abuse back with no complaints.

Romans 8:37-39 No, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him who loved us. For I am sure that neither death nor life, nor angels nor rulers, nor things present nor things to come, nor powers, nor height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God in Christ Jesus our Lord.

Peace

amen pal... well said

What Respect Is
On a practical level respect includes taking someone's feelings, needs, thoughts, ideas, wishes and preferences into consideration. It means taking all of these seriously and giving them worth and value. In fact, giving someone respect seems similar to valuing them and their thoughts, feelings, etc. It also includes acknowledging them, listening to them, being truthful with them, and accepting their individuality and idiosyncrasies.

Respect can be shown through behavior and it can also be felt. We can act in ways which are considered respectful, yet we can also feel respect for someone and feel respected by someone. Because it is possible to act in ways that do not reflect how we really feel, the feeling of respect is more important than the behavior without the feeling. When the feeling is there, the behavior will naturally follow

Off wiki LOL

People wonder why so many people are leaving this site, and you know what it is you lot that is driving everyone away.

This league is being put up for you out of the personal time from someone else if you don't like a decision that is made by the league staff then don't play. Just don't make the whole site a horrid place to be by constantly arguing in the forums.

Really getting on my wick now, and it is friends as well as others I am talking to here, God help you all if something really bad was to happen... like the game shutting down forever, I dunno how you would all cope without clans.

I would personally like to Thanks James for everything he has done for clans, Ut and for myself personally, my next clan game for MVP is to be my last as all this is just boring me now, I like many others come on here for a laugh, to pass time, to have fun. And all I ever see is people crying because of a result or a decision by a league runner who is giving you their spare time for you to get enjoyment, even though you are constantly having a go at him.

Well done James, dunno how you put up with it I certainly wouldn't have been able to.

I wont be leaving but i certainly wont be buying premium,, people's opinions don't matter anymore and then there's the accusations I've been on this site for a while not the longest person,, i enjoyed when i first started playing for wolf-pack but i think It just gets too out of hand for a online game.. This game means so much to some people I think we need to remember what if the server stopped for ages like a month how many people would come back ??

jeez this site has really really gone down hill more arguments discussions than anything

yes league runner deserve respect, but respect is a two way players deserve respect and innocent till proven guilty by league runners.

peace

i agree with these comments, can you plz stop the arguing im talking to everyone who has joined in, you can let ur opinions be heard but try and respect every1 else on here, i say like ive said be4 each clan shud have a representative who is aloud to speak and share their views on this thread and only them, if u have a idea or crititism then you should tell that representative and let them handle it in a controlled way.

thanks apple and yeah i totally agree with you

so you know in advance Jay i want no part of defaults staff next season, i will still run individuals because its simple to run but nothing more than that.

thing what kept me going was determination and will power but each given day it goes down, just glad i was able to have a metal mind to finish the season.

it will never stop until the league runners do something about
this why we losing teams and players big time

its got to come to a stop

people come on here to enjoy the game not to have abuse frown at them over a game

ill try and update division 2 tables now (except 1 missed default), but if my browser tries to crash like it has been doing then ill try again tomorrow.

I'm lucky enough not to be part of the clans ~ all this arguing is one of the main reasons i've turned down offers, it spoils it for everyone. It's not actually the site that has gone down hill, it's the users and especially those users that continuously find fault with others and turn the forum into a playground full of squabbling children

Lets all stop being negative and move on, lets give the new league runners a chance and hope the league changes for the better, bring on next season.

Big group hug including Jo

i dont care what was said about me, I was asked to send the message between me and rubber_duck to strike, I done that.... if Ant didnt believe it at the time then thats his problem.... total madness over something so stupid lol some people take this way too serious its over with now anyway I dont want or need an apology but thanks anyways doubted2 bud

Yeah respect is needed and i respect every player on this site even if we do not get on at all. If someone doesn't respect me then all i have to say is its all good, end of the day this is an online game and i couldn't careless what some people think of me. .

Regarding the situation that has been brought up with a certain new league runner being a cheat?

If i for one minute thought that was the case then i wouldn't have approached her with the offer for next season, i respect and trust Sarah to do what is best for the league even if it ended up hurting her boyfriends clan. This is a game and i think there relationship means more to them than some game.

People fail to realise a post i made earlier last month i think it was that next season when there is a default to be voted on that league runners wont have a vote on the matter, if they did it would be me looking into it no one else. So i don't see how cheating would even happen.

I trust and will back up the staff i wish to have as staff until i am proved otherwise. If you have a problem with one of them then that is your problem, keep it off the clan forums and keep it in offline message! It might just keep your posting right saved you never know.

i aint apologising for assuming no message was sent as it wasnt handed in to default team, end of, move on doubted, its not happenin

dunk, i aint got a problem with you or anythin you've said, when we've played, uve been a great opponent and i aint takin anythin away from you and im not blamin you for a message that wasnt sent into the staff for default.

i aint gonna comment on this again as its pointless, good luck to you dunk for rest of this season and for as many seasons as you wish to take part in

cheers dude good luck to u and TD too

Thanks mate, i appreciate it
