I would like to apologize for my earlier insensitive and crude remarks made towards Funk. I have redacted the posts and changed my response in a more appropriate and fitting manner. I hope you will find it in your heart to forgive me. I have no doubts in my mind that you are supremely talented and gifted at what you do regardless of any ill-willed feelings anyone may hold towards you. Good day now sir and please don't let the door hit you on the way out.

(You've said goodbye, but I'm certain you'll still read this)
I didn't come into this thread to judge you, your family, your outlook on life, or particularly your passions/ambitions. I'm just asserting that however you've been treated on these forums, trying to deal with every injustice will only hurt you more. Don't let this virtual life distract you from much greater things.
I mentioned integrity because you said that you didn't rant to start an argument when you should have known it was going to happen, and also you saying that this isn't about your tracks not being in the recommended when clearly this is where your anger has rooted from. I am in no position to deny the hard work you put in your tracks, but how can you be certain that your the only one being "victimized and discriminated"? I'm sure there are others who have pumped out quality tracks and haven't found the recognition, don't assume you're the only one just because you're the one voicing your opinion on the forums.
Personally, I thought I could help you. But here you are calling out the entire community and judging them for responding to your rants: "This is a shadow of the real world," "all the rubbish you spout," "hellbent on harmful intent." This is the point where you should realize you have gone too far. Despite being an internet forum, you're interacting with real people here.
I hope you find peace with all this. I will leave you and this thread alone now.

Funk, your tracks are good. You've also mentioned in the past mental issues. I am going to chalk this up to an outburst perhaps due to that. I keep you on my friends list on PS4 so I can play your tracks. To make it to Uplay Recommended, you have to do something extraordinary. You've already made it. And I wouldn't be surprised, provided you keep making good tracks, you'll be a spotlight maker for the month.
Settle down. Remember, you have friends and fans. Your work is good. And for a beginner, you got good really quick. Just keep doing quality work. Nobody is out to get you (well, the outbursts don't help) yet.

Has anyone heard the term casue and effect ?
Ok alot of this thread is just rubbish , humnan nature sprialling out of control on the internet but that phrase is so ripe within this whole community
I dont go in forums or havent been for years so i joined this one with an open mind , from the begining i was attacked constantly , barraged with trolls , had constant agression on every thread i created. Even shifty the forums manager replied to all with his opinion that why would anyone want to come into this forum and create tracks for building when they are being subjected to all the slammed thread agression and so forth. This gave me an defensive streak within my posts and eventually became aparnt within its inital post in any thread because i simply knew that even tho i was talking to the developers i was going to be attacked , barraged with nonsenss and given no repespect what soever , even to a point of some people trolling every post i put up. This is not my fault that my open mind that i once came in this forum with was then pushed in the direction of a defensive one. That is the fourm and its community that has the effect
The cause - barrage after barage , trolling , attacks constantly
the effect - changed an open mind into a defensive one with the knowlegde that every post is targeted.
So you will have to forgive me for my defensive nature in my threads becuase it is the complete fault of so many people within this room. This was the first forum i came in for years so i dont have agendas nor other reasons of how i act i came in as a new person using the internet feature within a game. The way i post is a true relflection on how people are intially treated when joining when trying to get into an already wall built community.
How would anyone else be if 15 of the same people gave the same responses which are agressive and insulting in almost every thread they put up in this room. Seriously think about it , how would you then react , it is hard to act any other way than i did within this room. People do not have to responde to the threads , they choose to. Where as everyone in this thread is an indevidual , from the start of my membership have had to reply and listen to each and everyone of the insulting responses while every other indevidual only had one response to deal with and that mine. So of course rash , unprompted responses are going to happen on my part. On everyone else part its one reply from me that they have to sit read through and contimplate , is it that hard to actually see through the bad post and see the intial point. I know i am not the only one whos tracks are being ignored this is one of the reason my concivtions are strong within this , so because i am the only one that speaks out does not make me wrong either. Does not make that i am claiming my tracks are the best. All it does is shows that i am not prepared to continue for this to happen and if i can do something about it i will. That is integrity and like i said for me being and older gent 40 this year omg. I require other things from the enjoyment of this game , simply playing a game is something i have done many years and does not thrill me any longer. Dominating platforms is something that is a goal within this game that is my target and enjoyment and if something is standing in the way of that other then my own skill ( which is apparntly the case ) then i will speak out , try to change it , not go quitley into the night so to speak . Is there anything worng in trying to get the best out of what you want from something i dont think so. Unfortunately because of the nature of the factions within this forum this has caused anything i put up to auto run on a defensive streak which is a naturel response from being targeted by gangs of factions within a built community upon trying to break into the cricle. Also becuause i wont just agree with someone just because i my like them or have a connection. I dont need to add things to an already obvious heated post where one person is getting battered but many do and they do this do gain favour and look good infront of thier so called online buddies.
In these threads there is some genuine people who intially are just annoyed and rant them selfs at it which at the time not seen which is understandable in having to deal with so much barrage of crap. This is constant and just because it happens are you suggestion that i stop posting or stop trying to further my progress in this game ? well i didnt and didnt want to because when i know i am right about something i stand my ground. The topic is a very small part of this game and i do not understand were fighting for something that still isnt right is an incorrect thing to do when most of the people in this thread moan thier backsides of constantly about 75% of the game. these people continue to do so in thier factions and do this without worry of barrges from 15 or so poeple becasue they are bacedby thier faction by faction i mean xbox and pc and so forth becuser its clear that people who are abundent on every single one of my posts are always from a different platform and are always within the same group who communitate on here in a circle.
I have posted again because i wanted to leave on a better term , if the above is not clear or is in anway demaening then please take my opologise's i love building and will continue to do so but my time here has come to end and wish all a good game and wann spit and shake and leave things in a better manner. No hard feeling to all , its the internet , this after all is a game and to a degree the threads are always taken way way to harshly. When speaking to a company you have to be assertive , and sometimes alittle threatening if they just continue to ignore you , its the policy in ways to get things done. You ring an internet company and be nice they wont give you anything , tell them your moving internet and they will change thier mind and slap you with loads of deals. Ring up any complaint department being just nice and it will get you know where , give some name that scares them and you will recieve a replacement for your tv
Being nice within a company to gain your customer satisfaction does absolutly nothing for what you rang up for. Take control , speak of terms that they have no answer for even tho it my sound pompus ,it works. Of course i dont speak or talk like that one little bit , im as common as the next didnt even finish school was to busy earning money. At the end of the day , as much as the is a friendly community , the purpose of it is for a company who earns thousands. As much as the dev are friendly , it is a job to them first of all. Their participation within this group is of an employment terms and that is they way i speak to them when concering things within the game simple as that. The recommended is a tactical sturcture part of this game and there is nothing wrong with being a tactical gamer regarding it.
have a good game people , if any time you wanna check out my tracks , by all means do and by all means feedback is cool even if its things wrong with it thats cool as long as it a genuine adivce. i wont be in here so so you see them on you tube. There is some duds but there is also some good ones , im not joking , not blowing my own trumpet , there is a few decent quality tracks.
no bad feelings guys

I'll just say that I was once a new member of this community, and everybody treated me with respect. I don't even play this game anymore, and I still go to this site every day to interact with the community.
Have you ever considered that your actions are what caused the effect of the trolling and harassment? I doubt it.

Never tried to get in any circles / groups.. for me it was the opposite.. seemed to me like people wanted to add me as a friend instead and give me tips and try to help me get better.. i never really tried to make this happen it just did. seemed to me that people were friendly and welcomed new players but hey. maybe i was just lucky or something

What'd I miss?
I thumbed through Funk's original post (super long), saw Shifty's lengthy reply (didn't bother to read), and now I see this quote. Can someone breakdown this entire thread for me in 1 to 2 sentences to save me 5-hours of reading? Good God...
