some PoTM do not deserve their titles

Ethelinde · 02-05-2009, 06:37 AM

In my opinion someone chosen as the Player of the Month by OutSpark should at least be helpful to the community and display characteristics worthy of mirroring. However, after receiving some screenshots containing whispers of ill nature between the current PoTM and my friend, I was truly disgusted:

Above is the screenshot of the conversation, with the names and excessively offensive language blocked out of course. The PoTM attacked my friend in game with fabricated claims regarding her sexual behavior in RL, as well as attempted crude manipulations of words in order to justify her aggressive behavior toward her former guild, all just to have a member of the guild quit.

I thought of not mentioning her behaviours on the public announcement thread, for the sake of saving her face, and this is the kind of treatment she gives her former friends - just because of her personal anger, her former guild now "deserve to burn", and a former guildy is now a "s**t" to be insulted via whisper.

What right does a person whose traits are as despicable as this have at receiving a supposedly honorary title?

I'd call it a hypocricy.

Yeah I think recently PotM is like whoever bought the most CS stuff ? =/
Nobody with no CS has every won it xD I think.

But yeah that's bad o.O

She "burned" our guild under her interview prepared a month ago, and now she "burns us in hell" in her outspark public profile.... Talk about hatred lol

I never really understood how this whole POTM thing worked. I do get it if they were chosen for helping many people out in and around their forums cause that's easy to see. But how is a GM or any staff member able to see how they are in-game? O_o

Like you posted that particular individual isn't the happiest player on earth... hm... One of life's mysteries perhaps?

Far from happy lol, I'd call scenarios involving her a bomb with short fuse.

potm is the biggest fake in fiesta. Its the one who is closest to most GMS or spends the most in the CS, imo, not ANYTHING to do with how nice they are.

Peope like thoose, who get potm and yet fail to be in the mentality of "Player of the month", are just people one should ignore.

Eh, not all of the Players of the Month are jackasses. These things tend to be very subjective.

**Loveless** · 02-05-2009, 08:00 AM

Yeah, not all of them are jerkfaces, true. They were jerkfaces to begin with... and has a tendency to brown nose. :3

Wasn't our very own Yosei a PotM? We at least know she's quality. They just need to tighten up their vetting process.

One of the early ones.

Maybe they're running out..?
