View Full Version : [Got Beef?]

Beef [ˈbēf] [slang] - a problematic situation or circumstance between two or more individuals, a gripe or grudge against another person.

Who here has beef with Tony Surphman?

Like for real...no joking, no petty disagreements...actual full-on beef? Because I want to know why anyone would be so quick to act grudgingly against someone who is so damn cool?

Yes he made a mistake, a big mistake...but does that make him a different person? No, he's the same person you used to IM for tips...he's the same person who kicked it with you at "that one gathering"...and he's the same person who gives you props when no one else would.

I'm sorry for coming across with this attitude, but it's just bugging me because there has been a lot of unjustified hate on TT as of late. We hate Team Shut'da Fuckup [not saying their real name] because they're a bunch of pretentious cunts [as the UK'ers would say], but how much of that really has to do with Tony?

Think about it...

i dont. i think tony has made some bad decisions with sf, but he if helikes it there then its fine be me. personally i hate sf. not tony. he is one of the nicest trickzters ive ever met, he talked to me at CLN when all his boys ignored me. i for one still love tony. just think he may need to rethink some things.

Fuck it, this shit is not worth my time.

If you are on a team; making their samps and believe everything they believe in, then you have everything to do with that team (SF)

If he didn't like what they were doing, then he should do damage control.

He said to everyone on aim that he was quiting but he's still on it. So then he still has to take the hate

Choices...

Nah, nah, nah...keep it open. It's all going to be out on the table this time.

I understand where you're coming from [Danny]...but everyone shouldn't condemn Tony for the reason you are [because he hasn't committed the same offense to them as he has to you]. I'm talking about the people who hate on Tony, and don't really have a "legitimate" reason to [like Bob Cheese].

I don't hate Tony lol when did I ever say I hated him personally? Tony has been an inspiration for me ever since i first saw his early 06 samp. I don't personally "hate" anyone just dislike. Whatever, my opinion doesn't matter I'm not even really part of this community anymore and I never met Tony or even talked to him.

edit: also, Sesh why the sudden rush to defend Surphman? He made an incredibly stupid decision and he paid for it. Making a thread about it isn't gonna make a big difference.

I have no real opinion on him, i see him as rather arogant though.

Ok, I'm going to be completely honest about my feelings.


Tony is hella nice, and he always gives great advice. He talks to me every once and a while, but I don't know him well enough to form a hateful opinion.

I think he did pull a dick move, but I don't hate him for it. I do think his priorities are mixed up, though.

He's never done anything wrong to me, personally.
However, I don't judge people just by how they act towards me; I judge them by how they act to EVERYONE.

Seeing as I don't know him THAT well, I can't judge him at all. I think he's hella nice to me, and I've seen him be nice to just about everyone else as well.

I don't hate him. I admire him for many reasons. I think he made a mistake, but it's not reason enough to change your opinion about him.

As long as he doesn't turn into a douchebag, he's still cool in my book.

I think I missed this 'dick move' ~I'm so confused :agony:

...buuuut, Tony is a foking awesome guy haha, I used to watch Gackt alllll the time, just gotta love his style :smile: I was slightly weary of his whole gangsta attitude on the forum but he's sooo down to earth in real life, I thought he didn't like me because I didn't hear him speak much but he's just a quiet person most of the time (or so it appeared to me).

I think I only caught the end of the whole SF thing where he said he could standing double cork, then released a video of a bail that SF claimed to be a combo etc etc.

Actually yeah, it'd be pretty awesome if someone could post the 'dick move' haha, I have no idea what's going on :smile:

i think tony just got sucked into the hype that SF were building, he wanted to do something big with his tricking and he saw them as his way to do that.

I dont think he ever sided with them because of their ideology!!

Tony's a cool guy, like sessh said i dont think people should condemn him for making one wrong decision.

dare i say it...... dont hate, understand.

The only thing i hate is when people 'jump on the bandwagon' to hate someone because everyone around them hates them without even personally understanding why they hate them. I dislike SF but i wouldn't say i hate them, because i don't even know them in person.

I really like him for his artistic ability. What Sessh said is true; when a person's sampler is getting crap, Tony is the first to defend them.

It will make a difference. People on TT have a tendency to start hating for no reason, which snowballs when people start bandwagoning. That hate could eventually lead to Tony getting enough flack that he leaves. That would be a pretty bad loss for the people on here and definitely wouldn't be cool.

This thread reminds people to think about the reasons why they have something against Tony and sort the bullshit from reality. Once that's done, most people won't have much left to hate with.

its the attitude of the internet. they tend to generally be more assholes then if you met them in person. i gurentee half the haters on tt, if they met tony wouldnt act the way they do online. tony is a really cool dude. its not like he deserves to be bashed.

I just think it's funny how Tony claimed to be his own brother, who praised him to death on MSN to Jiayo Chris:P I gave Chris his MSN, because he wanted to chat with him, and apparently, he started saying it was his little brother's MSN address (furious angel@something), and how his brother (Tony) just owned like hell at tricks, and how he was teh best evAr, you had to ask him for advice, if anyone etc.

Chris copy/pasted the convo, hahaha. Then he went "everyone hates you" on Tony's ass. Pretty radical statement, but funny situation nonetheless.

He can seem arrogant at times, but who doesn't?

i don't hate tony, i've never said i did, i always thought he looked cool and nice, but this whole team sf thing was a big mistake from him, and when he just continued to take their side and support everything they did and said, and after art md got banned, he used tonys user to post his shit and incredibly dissrespectful/stupid comments (in gangsta lingo) that just made me loose so much respect of him :eh: and i also disslike what he did to danny and hurricane. And when he saw and understood the shit team sf was doing he could easily walked away... meeh, i don't like it..

other than that i've always thought good of him though

zambri
Apr-25-08, 10:29 AM
i do not know him personally at all. imo by going along with sf, he goes along with what they beleive [basically what danny said]

if any one could clear up why he left hurricane please inform me.... hurricane to sf seems like a majour downgrade to me.

This is my take on that circumstance...

Surphman is on the team right [just like many of us are on a team]? If somebody was blasting on one of your mates, you would defend them right [regardless of what he did]? I mean...you would probably talk to him about what he did, but that would come second...the first thing would be to take up is side.

It would be pretty eff'd up if he left his mates out to dry, and Tony's is not a hoe...he's a soldier as far as I am concerned. He does a lot of the grunt work for whomever he's associated with [when he was with Hurricane: he did the samplers, the designed the hats, etc....and he did the same with the other team].

I don't think Tony would take part in an action that would hurt so many people unless he; either didn't know that it would, or he really had to for some reason [which is sad, but it happens]. The thing that sucks is that the head of the team was willing to do anything to achieve his goal...and ended up screwing around with other peoples dreams [and Tony just happened to be on the team at the time].

Now I'm not trying to change anybodies opinion of Tony...if you don't like him, then you don't like him. I just don't want people to dislike him just because other people don't care for him. The whole "guilt by association" thing is gay...

i agree with that, i would also defend one of my team mates, even if i thought they did something wrong, but then i would try to talk to and straighten that person out, which from what i've seen he hasn't done. And if he has, but it was with no succes, and i didn't share his opinions and goals, way to do things etc i would have a problem with them. And since tony is still with them, from what i can understand, he must think the same way as them...

I don't pay attention to the drama in the tricking community anymore--it is all so stupid. haha Which is why I hardly post anymore.
But I suppose I shall post, just because I have known of Tony for a very long time.
Furious Angel (Tony) has been around for a long time (oldschool TT) and has always been kind of involved in some wierd drama or whatever...whether it was IMing a bunch of tricksters (waterboy, fez, me and more...) and connecting to them...sending pictures of himself flexing and then exiting. Leaving us thinking "uhhh...wierd." haha.

Or the whole conversion from normal / somewhat intelligent speaking to what he refers to as "stylized" speaking--which seemed to bring up a bunch of drama / physical threats from him.

Then there was the whole "I am as good as Prodigy" bullshit...but I wont get into that. Thats like if I said I was as good as Anis...hahah god.

Now I guess there is this Team SF stuff...seems like he always gets himself in odd situations.
He is a nice guy in real life but somehow attracts trouble for himself. =P None of this "beef" has to do with me and its nothing that would keep me acting friendly if I ever see him again.

It seems it has come to this:


If you don't personally know him, you have no room to talk (Which I think is what this whole thread is about? People who don't know him hating?)


Which makes sense.




additional thoughts: A team is a team, everyone does their part. If you have to start adding up who does what, then you're no longer a team, you're a business.

If you leave you're team under bad terms, then you'll get some hostility.






Drama is lame.

Apr-25-08, 01:14 PM
Screw knowing someone personally haha.


I've said it before and I'll say it again: When it comes to these forums, I don't give a crap how you act in real life or in person.

Heck, do you think I act this way in person? No way! Hahah. But who cares? "Oh he's nice in real life, so noone can say he's been acting whatever way on this forum."

Screw that! ahaha. On this forum, on the internet, we do not deal with people's "real life personalities" we deal with people's online personas. It's like trying to hold someone else accountable for the crimes of another, you can't say that someone acting nice in real life is justification for their actions online.
If people acted the same way online as they did in real life, would there be a problem? Most likely not. However, problems do come.

To that end, online people can and will be accountable for the way they act online. This is a forum, and we have to see and put up with people's forum personalities, and they will be judged by their forum personalities.

When you're conversing with someone in real life, then you can judge them by their real life personality, in real life. But being nice offline doesn't give you an "i cant act anyway i want online" card. Far from it! One might say the lack of repercussions from posting on a forum allows one to reflect their true personality even moreso.

To that end, it seems Tony is being held accountable by those he knows in real life for his actions outside the forums, as well as being held accountable online for his actions on the forums.

Why is he talking ghetto anyways? Isn't he from the Florida suburbs, and goes to a private school? Where's the need to fit in there?

I'm more blunt online than I am in real life, but it's purely because I can word myself slightly better when I have the opportunity to reread what I've written and see if I've written anything that can be heavily misinterpreted. You don't really have this option in real life, unless you stop and think about every single word you say before every single sentence. (Stream of consciousness eff tee wee.)

I never bother to hate people on the tricks forums. I get annoyed by people at times, but that's both because I have to ban and lock and delete and use time on people being utterly moronic. I don't have any beef with anyone on the forums... not that I can think of anyways.

It does seem like the people who act "heavily douchebaggy" online are (usually) the more quiet or overall insecure kind in real life though. I've been to England, Scotland, Toronto (twice) and Quebec. I can't say I've met any "online hardasses" who weren't insecure in real life. Some tried to seem "hard" in real life, but they all ultimately failed.

... except Juji and Antoine, of course. Those two are freaking badass in real life:D


I don't know if I seem at all intimidating online though. (I doubt it.)
I did make the worlds finest male camel toe in the Real publicus in the Toronto hostel though:D I wonder how many nightmares that caused:D

This is my take on that circumstance...

Surphman is on the team right [just like many of us are on a team]? If somebody was blasting on one of your mates, you would defend them right [regardless of what he did]? I mean...you would probably talk to him about what he did, but that would come second...the first thing would be to take up is side.

It would be pretty eff'd up if he left his mates out to dry, and Tony's is not a hoe...he's a soldier as far as I am concerned. He does a lot of the grunt work for whomever he's associated with [when he was with Hurricane: he did the samplers, the designed the hats, etc....and he did the same with the other team].

I don't think Tony would take part in an action that would hurt so many people unless he; either didn't know that it would, or he really had to for some reason [which is sad, but it happens]. The thing that sucks is that the head of the team was willing to do anything to achieve his goal...and ended up screwing around with other peoples dreams [and Tony just happened to be on the team at the time].

Now I'm not trying to change anybodies opinion of Tony...if you don't like him, then you don't like him. I just don't want people to dislike him just because other people don't care for him. The whole "guilt by association" thing is gay...


What the hell defend your team mates in whatever they do? What are we 5? This goes back to the jumping off the cliff thing.... It's incredibly dumb to defend him over every thing he says like he's god just because you're his team mate. It's just stupid and weak that some people would compromise their own principles just so they can blindly follow their friends/teammates.

Screw knowing someone personally haha.

yup.

Why is he talking ghetto anyways? Isn't he from the Florida suburbs, and goes to a private school? Where's the need to fit in there?


you arent sure of his background so why would u say that? ur not sure where he goes to school or if he he's from the burbs.

and just because hes from the suburbs doesnt tell u anything.

i live in the suburbs...and i still have shootings...drug dealers...everything the ghetto has.

fuck a methlab got shut down on my block last summer. like 5 houses down from me.

Well, according to people who know where he lives and what he does, he lives in nice, suburbian Florida, and goes to a good private school.

I don't know how big of a deal a private school is in the US, but it's pretty nifty in Norway.

And hell, I live in the middle of Bergen. It's a really nice place, but I have one stoner who keeps buying drugs down the street and smoking weed indoors about 10 feet away from my room. I also have drug addicts continuously stalking outside my window at daytime to see if I leave it open, so they can steal shit.

tony was the coolest guy ever when i met him.

i've not a negative word to say about the guy.

also, his tricks are sick.

hope he's at TXT again this year! =D



i will say that i think SF is completely retarded... but whatever. tony wasn't playing a big part in the retardedness as far as i could tell. i was kinda sad he was involved with that but i hear he isn't any more so that's good.

You could just ask the mods to change your name. The admin can change your account name to anything, just look at Skilzat's steadily decreasing number.

The forum slang..I dunno what that's about, but the point is everybody has their own perception, and perception doesn't necessarily conform to what's generally accepted. If it satisfies himself more power to him.

Also some people get uncomfortable when it comes to setting people straight, especially when you don't know how to go about it and don't want to offend them. Regardless of how jackass his team members may appear, I'm sure they must've been cool to him for him to associate with them in the first place, unless he was just looking for opportunity in what the team was going for. I'd be pretty sure that when they did whatever stupid shit they did he was thinking "lol oook guys...wtf : /" (I don't know enough to say wether or not he supported their actions btw), but although they did and said alot of dumb shit, for me, that isn't reason enough to disown them or anyone (although, I'm a nice guy).

As for my experience with him, he was a pretty friendly guy. He could appear egotystical to some, but not in such a way that he'd dissasociate himself with you regarding your popularity/social standing. That's being a nice guy and that's all that matter's to me in a person.




OH

If that's the case, would anyone mind changing my original account (Gaara) to my current name? Don't like people talking down to me thinking I'm a newb here, it's rather annoying. Though, that is if you have the time. Thanks :juji:

when will people just trick and cut the shit? This place has been so dramatic over the past couple months. so many members are acting like lil hurt school girls, it makes me feel like i'm in highschool all over again. No wonder I stopped being so involved with this place. I love everybody here, but when it gets outta hand, it makes me wanna stay far away and just trick for myself and say fuck the community.

I am naturally suspicious and downright volatile towards any person who group who's intentions seem to be anything other than "Lets Just Trick."

I've made this statement to plenty of people. If they don't see the painful logic in it, then I won't like them - CAN'T like them.

It seems the only people I've ever not liked have found themselves tricking for lots of bad reasons

lol@sessh calling anyone a pretentious cunt.

i have always liked tony waaaaaaaaay before the whole SF thing happened. he's always been cool to me and always been enthusiastic towards me about tricks and shit.

i find it appalling that he left hurricane for SF (because that's obviously a huge mistake)!!! and even more surprised that any of them would attempt to challenge Danny G + others.


All I know is that i could probably beat Art MD in a battle . This is sad because i'm terrible at tricks lol....and he's going around boasting all this BS.

ehhh we'll see where it all leads...

I have called many people a pretentious cunt in the past... I don't know the guy so can't judge, but from what I have heard he is totally cool in person, just a bit of a wanker when online, which I don't get. I'm probably harsher in person simply because here on the forum I can look at what I have said and then edit it so I don't sound like a complete and utter cunt, whereas in person I don't have that ability... I would love it if I did though! that would get me out of some sticky situations...
