Well, I thought that it would be useless from my part to post my opinion but I guess that it's time for me to do it. Even though, I don't play Prisonbreak anymore but I have perfectly understood the gameplay and the mentality of the server. The reason why
@Ed hasn't solved this yet is because it really is a time consuming task since you have to go through each post. Moreover, the situation is very complicated and I guess that he cannot allow himself to solve the report without reconciling both sides (I may be wrong on this one). So I'm going to give my opinion in order to help you to see things a bit differently. Even though, most things that I'm going to say have already been said but it's not a huge deal. What matters is that you understand my point of view of the situation.
But before I give my opinion, I'd like to let you know that I'm not taking any sides. I've known Pinky and Proto for years so I know how good they can be (
even if they have their flaws, like everybody in this community). And I've also known Smiley for years and I perfectly know her as well.
So it is technically impossible for me to take any side and to be biased.However, don't expect me to be fair while giving my opinion. Even if I'm not willing to take any side, I have to be 100% honest and we all know who is right and who is wrong.
So let's start.
1. PinkyI have known Pinky since the day that I joined this community and I have always known her as a friendly person, even if I have never considered her as a friend. She is a friendly person whose main purpose is to have fun. However, I'm not going to hide the fact that she has her flaws. As you have already noticed, she doesn't get on well with other girls in the community (tasha, Kristina, Smiley, Java, etc.). She has been a lot in trouble with the other girls of the community
(and she has already been punished for it) but that's how she is and there is nothing you can do about it. So yeah, she really is a friendly person but she has her flaws, like everybody in this community.
2. ProtoUnfortunately, I can't say the same thing about Prototype. I don't hate him since I have never hated anyone in this community nor in my life but I know who he is. Firstly, he has never tried to be friendly with anyone except Pinky which explains his reputation. In the gaming world (specially in Jailbreak), people try their best to be friendly with everyone in order to have more fun and to enjoy the game at its finest. We are a community after all. However, Proto has never tried to be friendly with anyone except Pinky and that's what explains why people don't enjoy playing with him. It's pretty natural. I can't be friendly with someone who doesn't want to be friendly with me. I have tried to be friendly with Proto in the past but he has always rejected me and I'm pretty sure that he used to trashtalk behind my back, like he trashtalks about every single one of us. In addition to that, he tends to overreact very easily and he gets easily mad.
And why am I saying that ? Because I have seen Proto myself imitating other people of the community. Only Proto, Pinky and me were in the server that day so you can see that we were in good terms at that time. However, I was Head Admin of Jailbreak when this happened (
and didn't take actions since it was somehow private). But I don't know if they were really in good terms with me or if my position forced them to act that way. So some time later (
when I resigned and Andrew replaced me), Proto did something that pushed me to report him but I didn't want to do it myself. So I gave the demo to
@BuddyTrollsten and he reported him to
@Andrew~. But well, the issue was made public and even if
@BuddyTrollsten made his best to keep me anonymous, I couldn't keep myself from posting in the topic. So yeah, they knew that it was all because of me so they unfriended me on Steam (
I guess that they trashtalked so bad behind my back as well). And since that day, they have considered me as a "bad person". I guess that I broke their trust while they are the ones who broke mine when I knew who they really were (
when they started trashtalking about people behind their back and imitating them for no reason).
But as I can see, I'm not the only one who is in bad terms with him and I'm surprised that almost every single one of you who has posted in this topic shares the same opinion. The only ones who have posted and aren't in bad terms with him are PL, Jake and Ray. But PL doesn't know Proto well enough in order to give an opinion about himself in the first place. I don't know about Jake since he hasn't said anything of useful. And Ray, he knows Proto in real life since they are neighbours (
and I bet that Proto asked him to post something through Whatsapp) but I know what he really thinks about Proto.
3. Proto-Pinky relationshipWe all know that Proto and Pinky join the JB/PB server together. I have already seen Pinky join the JB/PB server without Proto but I have never seen Proto join the JB/PB without Pinky. So we can already see that Proto's activity depends somehow on Pinky's. We also know what's going on between both of them. So yeah, this is really entertaining and that's why people talk about it 24/7. A lot of things happen between the both of you that we are not even aware of so it's easy for us to hate you (
even if we shouldn't) because we know that you trashtalk behind our back. It's like you had your own community. And in addition to that, you defend eachother in public.
I mean, the reason why this led to drama and the reason why I'm trashtalking about you right now (
while I clearly said that I didn't want to give my opinion about the situation) is because you (Proto) took the decision to defend her while you should have stayed outside of this and let us (report panel) handle the situation. So you just made things more complicated than they were while this report wasn't supposed to go so far and to be that serious. Thank you for that.
And don't get mad at me. I couldn't care less about your relationship. I'm just giving my honest opinion regarding the situation so people can perfectly understand my point of view.
4. SmileySmiley has always been a very friendly person (
even Pinky isn't as friendly as her). She is friendly and respects everyone in the community (
even the ones who hate her) and everyone agrees with that since it's the truth. Just look at her replies, even though she has all the reasons to hate you, you can perfectly see that she is somehow remaining friendly with you since all she does is defend herself instead of attacking you. She has never been in trouble with anyone, you are actually the ones who are in trouble with her.
5. The report itselfSo let's end this post by giving an opinion regarding the report.
As we can see Pinky, who has always been in trouble with other girls of the community, is reporting Smiley, a friendly person who has never been in trouble with anyone so far. Why ? For saying "grossy".
- Firstly, there is no evidence that this was directed to you, as several people have already mentioned in this topic.
- Secondly, this is PRISONBREAK and it is allowed actually to talk rudely. In this particular case, even if it was directed to you, which I highly doubt and there is no evidence to support that, it doesn't simply matter because it's not an offence at all since it is ALLOWED. If you have personal issues with Smiley then it's your problem, not ours. We can't punish her for that.
- Last but no least, even if it wasn't allowed and even if it was directed to you, it wouldn't be enough to punish her.
But the problem is that Proto, who has never tried to be friendly with anyone except Pinky, has taken the decision to make this situation more dramatic than it was because he wants to show her that he loves her I guess. So yeah, thank you Proto for being unable to control yourself and for pushing people to trashtalk about you and about your relationship and therefore, forcing us to make such posts in order to solve an issue that could have been solved ages ago in a 2-lines post. Those who have been too far will be punished but you are the one who triggered them (
here).
I don't know if I'm being harsh there but I'm being honest and I'm saying this in front of you instead of trashtalking behind your back. You need to know what people think about this because you are taking it too far. You can hate me for it but I'm sticking to the terms and conditions and I'm just doing my job which consists of moderating this forum (
doing my best so this doesn't happen again) and solving reports.
Anyway, let's just wait for
@Ed to finally solve the issue because this is seriously getting too far.
Cheers.
