    I was on AIM looking for a ref for a battle I was preparing ,however, after I asked him to ref he was kinda rude.
    (*BTW-here is the chat between us)

    [21:30] DwrrekURPG: r u able to red
    [21:30] DwrrekURPG: *ref?
    [21:36] TigerintheArk: No
    [21:36] TigerintheArk: Hence my status
    [21:36] TigerintheArk: Also, please invest in typing correctly

    I had a great laugh when I saw that. His status said ffa, and you still asked, too bad.

    Also, I'll donate money so you can take a typing class, if you want I'll start a fund.

    There will always be rude people who make remarks like that. Sure ST may not always be the nicest person in the world. But, he isn't bad. You will always just have to bear with how people act. If a ref ever becomes extremely rude, well that is a case to bring it up, but until then just try and hang in there.

    Yeah then you went on to call him a dick when his status said "leave me alone" in capital letters.

    Should battlers be rude?

    Seriously, quit whining and quit being a hypocrite.

    Refs shouldn't be rude, but we all have to give ST an inch or two, because he wasn't raised right.

    I'm sorry my typing skills are not as satisfactory as yours. Obviously your as much of a douche, as the other ref.

    Protip - Don't make threads complaining about refs attitude. People will just laugh at you and think you're a noob, unless you actually have a valid complaint such as the recent thing with near.

    If you have an actual problem, just IM/PM the head ref or an official or w/e, making threads like this doesn't solve anything.

    Also, I don't see how ST's a douche. He asked you politely to invest in typing lessons (after refusing in a way that was anything but rude), which is apparently needed evidenced by your use of chatspeak.

    With my grade average of A in AP Literature I would like to point out that the tone in ST's message was somewhat caustic!

    I GUESS THIS THREAD IS NOW US HAVING OUR OWN CONVERSATION NOW. THANKX FOR THE GLISCOR MANE.

    ST is such a dick he should have his liscense revoked, he's no better than Near he just doesn't interfere with battles like Near does. He just does it in a different manner.

    He's a little bitch with a little :eek:.

    That being said, BMGers need to stop asking the same refs to ref every two seconds when they say no. They don't have to ref for you GOSH!

    No one should be rude. We should all just get along. WHY CAN'T WE ALL JUST GET ALONG! T_T

    On a side note, "u" and "r" are letters, not words. Also, proper capitalization is nice. At least at the beginning of a sentence. Just a few tips.

    I'm not, in anyway saying I am a victim; I just thought the ref could have been a little more considerate.

    First and foremost... that wasn't rude at all. On a scale of 1 to Kanye West, that wasn't even a 4. Hell, that was nice as far as ST is concerned.

    And shut up. T.T
    You're so mean to me. </3

    ^

    Also, you should have expected it when you're asking somebody with a status message that already says he isn't reffing. That said, ST was probably not being very nice, but you calling him a dick isn't really nice of you either.
