Well the real Cobrasolidus over on the AoC forums just replied to my private message.

 

Yeah that is not me I have never posted on MMORPG, honest the Cobrasolidus over there is some other Cobrasolidus. Thanks for the heads up lol.
I'm dumping AOC too btw. Sick of the BS.

So at least I know I wasnt going insane, the difference between you was pretty stark!

Some people are like slinkies, they dont really have a purpose, but they still bring a smile to your face when you push them down the stairs.

This I agree with...

I went back as well, as right now I am so sick of all the cloning of the genre.

Everyone wants to be WoW, with WAR and LOTRO being two MAJOR culprits.

I will take my low fantasy no elves approach with fast combat and killer visuals..

Thanks

I suspect nothing, besides that the noobs in the newcomers forum seem to be very happy with AoC.

On the topic of identity, it most definitely did not seem to be the same CobraSolidus form the official forums and I'm glad he confirmed it. It almost seemed like someone took an alias like Protus-AoC's (well not as extreme) creating an alias here; and making strictly negative posts about the game.  In other words, someone's personal joke.

It's a real shame if indeed that is the case.

This seems to be a common tactic of a hater.

I am no fanboy, but I mean, a lot of those people are NOT noobs...far from it...

This guy gives John McCain a bad name. Please take him off your avtar. People like you give Funcom an even worse reputation than they already have.


On a side note..the link he provided has a total of 6 comments in 2 days......WOW!

Glad you resolved that Orzo, I was starting to think that Cobrasolidus had a multiple personality disorder. Now that I know the one here on MMORPG is just an imposter, I feel more at ease.

I have seen the imposter post in all the AoC threads and War threads. I wonder what kind of sad person would steal another person's name from another forum and make posts opposing the original person's viewpoints...

A fake Cobrasolidus hater troll, I guess.

I had could not play WAR because of performance issues and crash to desktop. The killer was however those lag issues. AoC runs with much higher FPS on my rig than WAR.

The game is hardly getting better...

The GD announced plans on making it better, but those plans are months in the future. I have given them 5 months, I just can't stomach all the crap they keep feeding customers, some folks like the taste, though. The PVP patch you are talking about is only half finished, the only people that are taking advantage of it are the Fight clubbers and the griefer/ganker kids before the murderer patch gets implemented.

Also the game is supposed to be for mature players, but there are way too many kids playing AoC, you can tell that by reading the OOC (if you can deal with all the "sux" or "LRN2Raid"). If I wanted to hang out with kids I would play Hello Kiddie or Pirates of the Caribbean.

Lol, the real? Want to bet on how many other forums their is a guy named Orzo? Probably a few.

I have no idea where the name come from anyways but I do't believe people see others usernames ad think "Wow, cool. I wll use that at another forum"...

Huh, most of it is on the testserver... When they will be moved over to the live one is a big question but months sounds wrong. Weeks is far more likely.

I haven't heard any Kid speak in the OCC for 3 months but that might be because Im on a PvE server, I did notice in EQ2 that the PVP server had lot of kids while no one ever spoke like that on the PvE one. Dunno why.

I have seen one guy post this before, and it just really baffles me the level of nonsense the haters are willing to take forum talk to. If you post that you like a game, you'll have the opinion-police after you in a second. Just ignore it.

The intial intention of the post was just to make fun of a very internal conversation in between noobs(1 week old) on the AoC forum. I guess it pissed the opinion-police off. Sorry mom.

Well, I do play on a PVP server, I had hoped being on Cimmeria PVP-RP would keep the kids away (didn't think the little tykes liked role playing). At least I never had problems with the server being dead like I hear others talking about.

Orzo is italian for barley, so perhaps not as common a forum name as we'd like to believe.  What I do believe Orzo and others are alluding to, is this curious coincidence that this unique name combination (CobraSolidus) is shared by two people with the same MMO interest (Age of Conan).  In other words, in how many other Age of Conan forums is there an actively posting Orzo?

The second of the two Cobra's shares a nearly 180 degree perspective than that of the original; which could be construed as odd if you visit both forums and read their respective posts.  The question then is whether it is simply coincidence or intentional.

Sin Reaper, your post has nothing to do with Cobras post. You are just somehow trying to be mean to him. Why?

I did what you just did Pezz, I replied in response to the content of the thread. The content in this case, is in response to Cobra's post. 

As a community, we are much more than just the sum of our posts; and more a reflection of what we contribute overall to the process and advancement of discussion. To that end, character sometimes becomes an item for discussion amongst our members; as we seek to understand a pattern or perspective that aligns or is opposed to our own.

As an example, I have a great deal of respect for Avery. He clearly and justifiably has committed to this title; and his enthusiasm and steadfast responses to sometimes negative feedback sent his way is noteworthy.  In other words, he recognizes that if you're to write it; you need to stand by it and be open to both types of criticism. You won't survive in a close community otherwise.

In the same way that some dislike non constructive negative feedback; there are those who do not like non constructive positive feedback.  In both cases, it's reasonable to present that issue to the poster or to attempt to understand that poster's motivation for doing so.  This is the theme for CobraSolidus at present, and it will rightly fade away with time when other items of interest take center stage.

You're welcome to PM me if you'd like to further discuss this item; as again the content of this post was specific to the original post AND its author; CobraSolidus. Otherwise, I'm going to go ahead and consider your question addressed; and no longer a talking point in this thread.

Very glad you could step up and make a good judgement in this difficult case Sin, lol. Let people post whatever they want as long they not on purpose troll a forum downhill. Sure Avery is cool, but I think Cobra also has good points.

You hit the nail on the head Sinreaper.  Exactly how I intended the post and they knew that.  They are hoping a forum GM will come by and see they are fanbois and take action against me I suppose.  The fact that this guy (cobrasolidus)  just joined recently and has a zillion posts leads me to believe he is ILOVEFUNCOM.  I would be more willing to believe there is another orzo and it is a reference to italian cooking, than I would that there are 2 cobrasolidus's.

Ive moved to Ryzom for this very reason and find the community there wonderful.
