As much as the player IN GAME are the best aspect of this game, very nice, friendly and all...
If you go to the official forum, the peoples over there, they are <mod edit>

The more specific they are to the game functioning, the better they are.

I used to cancel my sub just so i couldnt post on official forum. this meant i couldnt get into any arguments with others. I also made liberal use of the 'ignore' feature. there's some ppl that post on that forum just to argue. I think more board should get the ignore feature happening. what i really hated was that u could make a comment about something next thing you know you're getting "called out" because someone wants to fight you in Arena to settle some dispute. half the time the other party wont even show. I guess i can see why some hates pvp cause it brings out the worst out some of us. community forums are just not a good place to post but man the official forums is a wealth of information. would be much better if they did not delete old posts tho |

Regardless of what is said, ALL forums for any game have the same problem. You can't just single out CoH.

The forums are the one things I tell people are great about this game. The community is highly supportive of new players and helping one another. Why, yesterday someone asked me to duo with them for radio's, but I told them I hadn't been playing very long. They invited me to a group and helped me a ton, for absolutely no reason. People are just as kind in the forums, just have to find them.

There are some very friendly and knowledgeable people on there that will go out of their way to help you. Unfortunately anytime you have an environment like that it will draw in the rude and obnoxious. The only real defense is to just ignore them and proceed like they don’t exist. But unfortunately people just tend to add fuel to the fire. Final Fantasy's is the worst forum I have experienced by far.

world of warcraft forums are the worst to me. they post your main avatar, rank, class, and level. This is both a neat, awesome feature and a curse. it creates an elite atmosphere whereas if you're not level cap they're like, s t f u noob And if you're on a PvE server talking bout PvP (cause they see your server too), they're like s t f u carebear
they remove the ability for ppl to make annoymous posts. u guys know how i love to argue. now just imagine, im a founding father of a huge WoW guild and anytime i make a post if its something ppl dont like my entire guild gets burned
CoX forums are like 10x better then most any MMO I've seen but MMORPG forums are the best. you can report an offensive poster here and they will get punished. on CoX forums, they dont ban offensive posters. I know i got modded on CoX forums a lot but never gotten banned and others made worst comments but never even got a temp suspension |

For the most part, I also enjoy the CoX forums. 90% of the time you get decent forum and game veterans willing to help out with specs or slotting advice. And frankly, a trip to the art forums there is worth the price of admission. Very generous people willing to do ink and color portraits of your in game characters? And half the time for absolutely nothing in return? I think that's pretty awesome myself!

I do think it is unfair to say that Online community is the worst, honestly if you find the right people the online community is the best, most of the time it not on the offical forums though. I love my online community its one of the reasons I have been playing the game so long, link can be found in my sig. Originally posted by JittanIt really goes to which part of the CoH forums you frequent. Some are filled with trolls and negative people, some are very willing to help. I haven't been a part of many other games forums but CoH forum sometimes is a little harsh if you post anything "n00bish", makes for a very difficult new-to-the-game and new-to-the-forums exprience.

Note to all, if you found an MMO that you enjoy stay away from the forums. I thought COH/COV got nasty but when I subbed on SWG I think I located the seventh circle of hell! |

I was piss at something in the game, piss enought to log off, go to the official forum, log in there, write a message to explain it. I go on the official forum and tell the peoples this was frustrating for me... Peoples on the official forum, they start acting like hollier then thou, defending the game and saying that me, as a player am at fault. But the point is...I am extremely unhappy about something in game. And they bash me?
See, if something is problematic in a setting, the normal reaction is to look for approval and support from your peers. When they trash you for not finding the game perfect and flawless...
An official forum must serve a purpose. Is it to promote the devs ego? If so, it is fullfilling it purpose. Is it to promote the game? Then it is failing when peoples rebute a problematic with such a social leak. - "If I understand you well, you are telling me until next time.

Jspizzle this guys were saying how cool mmorpgs forums are and along come you to act the elite of the elite and insult him for explaining his problem on that games forums? your sad man.
Another place whose games forums will contain the worst collection of trolls game haters is here: www.gamefaqs.com There people will hate a game for no reason and whenever someone comes to ask for advice for the game, like buying this game or can someone explain this feature to me, this guys will come and trash talk the game to hell. I sometimes find that fan forums are the best, if a hater comes they ban him instantly, you can talk with normal people that are like you game lovers that just want to have a normal internet conversation explaining game features or problems.

Official forums are horrible. Dire moderation and festering trolls. Unhelpful too. Asking for help is just a invitation for fanboy abuse. It ends when you abuse them back and the thread get locked without your requests for help every being addressed. No solutions offered. Just abuse.
I found a great little one at www.gameamp.com that I enjoyed. Nice people. In the spirit of the game. Never read a single unfriendly post there. |

I agree, the CoH forums are full of whining, elitist, pathetic wackos, which is why I don't even go there anymore except to look at Dev posts and new info for the Test Server. I mean just take a look at the Tanker forums. It's a disaster, lol
