Dird, a few words which will do you well to heed.
BuF is a forum where many people post every day, look at every day, and regularly meet up online to play against each other. Thus it is a kind of community, and like any community, the members of it get irritated by anyone who joins and then starts insulting people.
Now, look at your first post here. You call people ungrateful, and you call them ghey for not liking music played over the public channels. (btw, a number of BuF members are gay, did you think about that before you posted? Do you actually know any gay people? Did you wonder what people might think when you started using words like queer as an insult..in about 5 posts you've called people gay...which suggests to me you have problems fitting in with diverse social groups, which is what BuF is).
Where was I?, Oh yes, you started off by insulting people with your first post. Now, most people actually hate crap played over the public channels, like many, I turn ingame music off myself because the game sounds are far more important to me. So when your first post is so aggressive, and this is a community of people, many of whom are really good at the game (trust me, way better than you can imagine), how could you not realise that people would tell you what you can do with your music.
A better attitude would have been perhaps to write a polite post asking people what they thought about ingame music..then I can assure you, you'd have recieved polite replies. I've found these forums to be really welcoming to new members, people were to me when I joined, and the same to randieannie, who's also posted in this thread, no-one here has a problem with new members, just with arrogance and insults.
There are plenty of players here who can own you. I mean really truly own you at this game. Anyone who puts a picture of themselves on their website killing NOVICE bots isn't going to gain any respect here. For example, I rarely play DM, but when I do play offline, I only ever play at Adept, and I can usually win...and I'm pretty sure that 90% of people on these forums, many of whom have contributed to this thread, could absolutely take me apart at DM or CTF. I know this cos I've played some of them at FragBU and specc-ed many of them too. But you come in, insulting people, challenging people...
..Come on, obviously people are going to slap you down. What on earth did you expect?
And your language. Have you read the forum rules? There are people here who have kids your age (I'm guessing from your terrible spelling and grammar, and your really immature attitude that you are about 12 or 13). Do you think people are impressed?
You've got a sig that says something about people contributing. If you want to impress people here, then do that by contributing. A good place to start would be by being a little more polite and stop insulting established members. You must have noticed that as you started posting insulting stuff, more and more people have posted to slap you down and laugh at you. Why do you think that happens? No-one here is into victimising people, but they won't accept people behaving like dickheads....which you have to admit you have.
I mean, you went on an extended rant against Ren, insulting him, and then your begging him to let you join the tourney. Come on, after the attitude you've shown, do you think anyone really wants you to join a friendly tournament.
So I'm sorry to sound preach-y, but this thread is getting stupid, and if you don't want to get banned (and I reckon you're heading in that direction) and if you want people to welcome you into things like Frag BU and the Tourney, then you really have to think a little bit more about what you post and lose the attitude
