bluesboyjr Posted March 11, 2012 Share Posted March 11, 2012 You know, I don't mind Zee. He's free to state his opinion, and this forum would get boring if it was all just guys saying "GTA V's gonna be great", "yup, I agree". Variety is the spice of life, and Zee is on the far end of the Scoville scale. However, his puns are bloody God-awful, which is a good enough reason to get mad at him. No, the only thing I really dislike about Zee is how he can manage to completely derail a topic just by popping in and saying "hey guys, Cockstar, bye", and before you know it everyone stops discussing the topic at hand and starts making accusations about his parents' love life. Just like what's happened here. It's not even Zee's fault, there are just certain members cough*73duster*cough who are ready to lash out at Zee whenever they get the chance, like he ran over their dog. Kinda like how Dan Houser ran over Zee's dog. So, to stay on topic, Rockstar don't treat their fans any differently to any other company that makes video games, from Activision to Valve, and they're not gonna faff around with what their marketing execs told them to do in order to appease internet forumites. In any business, it's all about the bottom line. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dale Nixon Posted March 11, 2012 Share Posted March 11, 2012 Zee makes this part of the forum fun, to be honest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Long_Haired_Boy Posted March 11, 2012 Share Posted March 11, 2012 Something big is going to be revealed by Rockstar pre E3 I think in between April-June. They usually promote 2 games at once and Max Payne 3 is getting released soon and surly it will have DLC but it won't be that much of a inve$ment. Meaning the release of another trailer of something.

.JimmyHopkins. Posted March 11, 2012 Share Posted March 11, 2012 to me this Zee looks like someone who just wants to gain attention...nothing more.The more you people talk about that the more it will get worse because everyone is going to start talking about him...let's say making all this a "topic" that is completely pointless.Just stop taking it serious and that's all.Continue talking about the main topic and move on.Everything else is just a waste of time.

Los Santos Pedestrian Posted March 11, 2012 Share Posted March 11, 2012 (edited) @bluesboyjr I'm not that annoyed at his opinions (compared to some of the people here), but he spends thousands of dollars on plane trips from England to the United States JUST to rant about Rockstar not being good enough for his needs, and I think he actually hates Rockstar and all their guts but is a hypocrite in every way. I also hate how he's suddenly made a cult of people who just rant about Max Payne 3 and when Rockstar goes 'corrupt' or 'drunk' by releasing a different game other than GTA. Those people include JoanCrawford and Little William. Edited March 11, 2012 by Los Santos Pedestrian Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he really went to the US for the sole purpose of just filming those videos, as opposed to a holiday/business trip where he found some spare time to make them for his and our amusement, then I'm really not giving him enough credit. As for his followers, I see them more as copycats than protégées. Joan never reached the right Zee-esque level of finesse; even Zee himself said he felt embarrassed by how overboard she went prior to her unfortunate demise.

73duster Posted March 12, 2012 Share Posted March 12, 2012 Well, i guess i'm wrong. I never saw any forum where someone who is CLEARLY a troll, was allowed to post things that others get banned for. If you guys think he is such a comedic genius, simply because he can spout the same, repetitive stuff for years, then i guess i don't understand what you consider great comedy. I never opposed anyone being able to have an opinion, and frankly, i think it's a copout to defend him by comparing his retarded rantings as "opinion", but so be it. What i oppose is the double standard that is obvious in this case. I was threatened with a ban for simply giving MY "opinions" in responding to his "thoughts". This is not about me, this could apply for anyone else, Joan Crawford was banned for doing the same thing Zee does, and i was no fan of hers. Obviously, you guys are OK with his garbage, so i won't bring it up again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know he trolls a lot and it annoys some people on the forum, but you gotta learn to take it easy, sometimes he can be really funny! If you really dislike him that much then just ignore his posts.

Zee doesn't express his opinions in a respectful manner and insults R* all the time, and AFAIK insulting people is against the forum rules, yet, for some reason, the mods give Zee a free pass to insult the company responsible for these forums even existing. Btw, your avatar is the best one ever. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now do you really think that Zee hate R* that much as he states in his posts?? just dont take him seriously then you will find his posts are actually funny I have a hard time imagining how could anyone find Zee's posts funny, but eh, whatever, if he's really just joking and not being an actual ungrateful prick, then that's good.

Let's say for a moment that Zee was a troll (it shouldn't take too far a leap of the imagination). When you keep posting why he angers you so, you only make him a more successful troll, as that is how trolls work. I try to treat him with a special "that's our Zee! <sitcom laughter>" approach, which turns him from my point-of-view into some sort of forum mascot, like Slamman. Also, Joan was banned for being a previously-banned-member, not for her attempts at usurping Zee's throne. @_L1pE_ Everything Zee says is wrapped in hyperbole and what I believe is supposed to be wit, so I'd take it with a grain a Dead Sea-full of salt. Btw, yes, yes it is, thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well.. He is not always funny, he can be annoying at times, but he can be really funny sometimes too! I think he is just doing this to.. I dont know how to say it.. "stand out" or to be unique and different from other members, i honestly find him to be really funny sometimes even though i completely disagree with his opnions on R* , now if you hate him or dislike his posts then just ignore him Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am simply expressing my OWN opinion that what he does is supposed to be against forum rules, yet he gets a free pass while others are expected to respect forum rules. In all of the "defenses" for the forum mascot, not one has addressed this. As i said before, if you guys don't give a crap, fine, but don't bitch and complain when someone responds to his posts with their own opinion by crying about going "off topic".

bluesboyjr Posted March 12, 2012 Share Posted March 12, 2012 (edited) Ok, wait...This topic is about Zee? It wasn't supposed to be. BUT, WELL, YOU KNOW HOW IT IS... As i said before, if you guys don't give a crap, fine, but don't bitch and complain when someone responds to his posts with their own opinion by crying about going "off topic". That's the thing, though. For this topic, Zee only posted once, and it wasn't even something that could be deemed insulting to anyone, yet somehow it's turned into a sh*tfest, simply because someone mentioned his name, not even directly replying to him. It's every troll's wet dream! Edited March 12, 2012 by bluesboyjr Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ryuclan Posted March 12, 2012 Share Posted March 12, 2012 Anyway.... R* aren't selfish. They do.listen to their fans and they do care but.... Marketing is in high gear for MP3.

They need to give that game some momentum before they move on with their goto. title. Let us hope that all this concentration on MP3 marketing, at the presumed cost of not taking the time to drop even a few screenshots or hi-rez pix of car wallpapers, or anything, to the suffering GTA V fanbase, will be worth it to Rockstar. I have nothing against Max Payne and it looks like it could be as great example of what Rockstar wants to do artistically, and I greatly applaud a company with the courage to follow its muse. But...geez guys...a total blackout of GTAV tidbits? I feel like a starving crow seeing Rockstar feeding all the pigeons on the other side of the fence, and not even a crust of bread for us. I'm not trying to be as mean or negative as it sounds (since I basically worship Rockstar's sandbox games), but I just wanted to reinforce the tone of pain and betrayal that the OP expressed - i.e., trying to keep on topic.
