Sarcasm "is a form of humor that uses sharp, cutting remarks or language intended to mock, wound, or subject to contempt or ridicule, generally saying the opposite of what the statement really is."
We know what sarcasm is...none of the intention is construcive or for the better, all are destructive having source in hate. -----MY-TERMS-OF-USE-------------------------------------------------- Everyone who logs into NGE destroys a bit of the SW Universe. No SWG Pre-Cu, No money to the $OE suckers , simple and fair. DON't agree to $OE 's EULA. They change the gameplay without respect your investement.

Sarcasm can be a bit of a harsh humor though, so I could see why someone who likes DarkFall might be adverse to that kind of humor.

The problem is no one will get banned for sarcasm, because sarcasm is just "form of humor" which let you mask your intention (you mean the opposite of what is there to read) Someone uses sarcasm want to be destructive without in trouble getting banned. Is a coward type of behaviour so to speak. The counter to sarcasm is to make the intention public. -----MY-TERMS-OF-USE-------------------------------------------------- Everyone who logs into NGE destroys a bit of the SW Universe.

But yeah, for some life might be a bit more serious; so I can see how they might think a form of humor might be so nefarious. |

Darkfall Rocks.
there are more posts discussing Darkfall than there are people actually playing the useless game |

Seriously guys I'm sure the next expansion and the transfers and boxed version that are hopefully coming very soon will totally change things, not that they need changing because games fine, population is fine, Aventurine are fine, community is fine, everythings fine. You might think that more people having read this thread then are actually playing at peak time on either of the servers or this forum having more people reading it then Darkfall has subscribers are a bad thing, but it actually shows how much interest their still is in this groundbreaking revolutionary advanced next generation title. See what Aventurine are doing is slowly working on improving the game until its absolutely perfect then WHAM! they will hit us with the 1 year launch anniversary free trial and will totally blow away all of the 300,000 troll haters that have deserted them with its best game evar awesomeness, then we will all be playing it and holding hands singing kumbaya and weeping about how wrong we were to doubt Aventurine and apologizing for being horrible little troll haters. Just like Eve Online, Darkfall will grow slowly at first but then rapidly increase its player base and finally start receiving the incredibly positive mainstream press reviews it truly deserves. The Xfire numbers will prove this, mark my words. So in closing a heart felt thanks to all the hardcore elite brave patient persistent old school gamers who have kept the faith all these years and fought the good fight to keep the dream alive, your efforts will be rewarded and this game will be the tremendous success we all in are deepest hearts know it is destined to be. Darkfall will not go quietly into the night, oh no! It will be reborn like a phoenix from these ashes and will rise into internet gaming history as the single most important piece of entertainment software of the 21st century, Aventurine will eventually be acclaimed for their genius, perhaps not in are lifetimes but in some distant more enlightened time. Please don't give up, keep your subscriptions going and convince as many people as possible you can to keep playing this incredible success by any standards game even though we don't need you anyway this game is obviously not for you go back to WoW. |

To put that much effort into trying to piss someone off over the internet. Don't think anyone wins out in that one. Except for me of course, I love watching people wasting so much time with a pointless post. Very entertaining. But you do know you're actually advertising for a game that you clearly despise just by posting in it's forum? And Polar the Xfire issue has been deflated time and time again. It's numbers mean squat here. At least drive the speed limit. Catch up. |

I love the sensitivity we show to sarcasm, this "destructive force having a source in hate" as it were, yet we are so quick (and when I say "we" I mean Darth) to spew venemous remarks (sometimes laced in honey and sometimes not) about those that play the themepark games, about carebears, people needing their hands held, and whatever other remarks are made about those that play those "cartoonish looking" games. Hypocrisy, you will forever and always have a friend in Darth. You reap what you sow Darth. What was that again about making the intention public?

You obviously ignore you own hypocrisy in these you very own post. I was never coward and said what i thought. Those who need their hand hold and need the gaphics like a cartoon have spew there not less venemous remarks here or you badly need new glasses to read these forum and identify them. Time to summarize. Haters bring up x-fire total number to prove something. OP puts a current picture showing half those numbers and showing just one side of conflict. Eye-witness and participant confirms that more people attended on that single spot on that single occasion and that are not to seen from that perspective ss have been shot. No one can put obviously a current screenshot from any game show at least the same amount players on the screen like OP screenshot shows but still the venomous remarks ( partial masked as false prophecies) using cowardly sarcasm or not, targeted at the state of the game or their fans hasn't stoped and being tossed around like it would proof something. -----MY-TERMS-OF-USE-------------------------------------------------- Everyone who logs into NGE destroys a bit of the SW Universe.

i have no idea what x-fire is. im playing mmorpg´s since 10 years, and i dont care shit about it |
|

One i would not worry about Xfire,i have been gaming for many years and have never used it,i have no reason to use it,why would i use it? Something i knew would be a problem with games that offer something better than the normal is seen in that picture,everyone is mounted.It takes away realism and immersion of game play.How can you call something a siege if everyone is just riding up on mounts?you need catapults,players on foot using ladders,battering rams to open the gates,archers on foot using flames arrows,Spearmen to battle other cavalry/mounted players ect ect.This is called creativity and diversity,all on a mount is far too linear looking combat.I forget the movie but remember the Woades? all were archers that fought out of the forest and used catapults,then there was cavalry, also fighters that would hide under the brush then ambush,there was the fighters using shields,Pikemen.This is the kind of exciting combat i need from a RPG type PVP game.Heck who didn't like the movie 300?those guys weren't all mounted,heck none of them were lol. Anyhoot it looks like some are having fun as you have a decent number join in for your raid,continue to have fun that is what it's all about. |

Javac is not a hater because he said something constructive. "almost 100% growth in playtime according to XFire in a single month." He just states a fact that was right by the time he posted these. There are even no conclusions drawn in relation to health , longetivity or anything of Darkfall just an increase and the most you could assume from his statement is something like "Darkfall populations increases".
But here you can see hate. http://www.mmorpg.com/gamelist.cfm/game/4/view/forums/thread/255912/Massively-Dead-by-Design.html "I laughed out loud. Darkfalls massively dead "by design". XFIRE Score of Fail
78 people Woot thats the population that still plays Battlefield 2 modern combat for xbox 360."
I was assuming you would know the difference between those 2 posts, i mean alone the language used should have give you a hint.

"You obviously ignore you own hypocrisy in these you very own post." So this is your retort. You go to the "I'm rubber, your glue" defense? Really? Wow, just wow. Really, do I? Show me. The only hypocrisy in that post is exactly what I pointed out, and that is a fact. "Those who need their hand hold and need the gaphics like a cartoon have spew there not less venemous remarks here or you badly need new glasses to read these forum and identify them." Did I say no one else on these forums makes hypocritical posts? Please, show me where I said that? The problem here is that you can't. I never once denied that happens. Maybe you need to put on your glasses and reread my post. Difference between you and other hypocrites is that you are one of the most vocal people on these boards, day in and day out pointing out the crimes of others while commiting those same crimes yourself. With the amount of time you spend on these boards, when you do it, it is more visible, it is more noticeable. People see it Darth, I just decided to call you on it. You see cupcake, you bring up others and what they do like that is a valid defense in this case, but the fact of the matter is, I never said no one else has been hypocritical. I just simply brought your hypocrisy to light. All you accomplished with this post Darth was to show that you either don't fully comprehend what my post was saying, or that you are very good with adding details to a post that weren't there to begin with. Using your imagination can be fun. Time to summarize: Darth is indeed a hypocrite. Darth needs to work on his reading comprehension. Darth is a very lonely person, because he seems to fear hand holding. Darth has conveniently forgotten that Xfire numbers have been brought up as a defense on both sides of the fence, so haters must be everywhere. Darth is indeed a coward, even though he would like to believe otherwise. Wow, and there it is. The truth will set you free Darth. |

Good lord Darth, do you actually read what you post? So now we have stipulations on when using Xfire numbers is alright? Because Javac used it in defense of the game, he is not a hater? A rundown of what basically transpired (paraphrased for my amusement): Darth: If you use xfire numbers to prove something, you are a hater. Xyzax: Darth, Javac used xfire numbers to prove something, so he must be a hater too. Darth: ... Darth: ... Darth: Ummm...he was using them in a constructive manner, so he is not a hater. Yeah, that's the ticket! You can't have it both ways Darth. If this were a court of law, you would have just lost your case. Haters bring up xfire numbers to prove something. That was your statement. What did Javac do there? He brought up xfire numbers to prove something. Here's your shovel, continue digging your hole. It really is amusing. |

Do you guys ever get bored of arguing about the same BS in every Darkfall thread? |

You try to spin around any meaning of my statement and that you do these on purpose. I did a summarize and started with "Haters bring up x-fire total number to prove something.". I refer to the other topic these topic is an reply too and did these meanwhile multiple times in these thread. I could have say "a hater brings up x-fire totals...", i did not identified him as hater because he brought up x-fire numbers but of the type and the wording he uses and his intentions with his posts. These is the post "I laughed out loud. Darkfalls massively dead "by design". XFIRE Score of Fail 78 people Woot thats the population that still plays Battlefield 2 modern combat for xbox 360."
After reading these post i feel safe to characterize the author as someone hostile to the game and as an hater.
Again visit my post and its there to read ..
I give xzyax a benefit of the doubt but after my reply to his post and my clarification you should know and what you do now is spin what i really said on purpose to make it fit your own agenda. Probably a diversionary tactic, we still have to see a current screenhot from a favorite game of the haters showing what Darkfall renders and still that does not stop them performing venomenous attacks or diversionary tactics. meanwhile OP screenshot still owns.

Yes Darth, you caught me in my evil agenda to show the world that you are in fact a hypocrite. I didn't spin, I did change your words in my paraphrasing (hence the statement that I was paraphrasing), but here is the exact wording from the initial post, copied directly from it: "Haters bring up x-fire total number to prove something." What did Javac do? He brought up xfire numbers to prove something. Simple as that, an open and shut case. There is no arguing that. Xyzax stated he must be a hater for doing the same thing you stated the haters do. And then you try and say it was okay for Javac to do it because in your opinion he was being constructive? You don't get it both ways Darth. You are a walking contradiction, you know that? As for distraction techniques...paranoia much? Are they all out to get you? What am I distracting from? I didn't come into this fighting for one side or the other. So what am I distracting from if the posts I have made are leading to the same subject? Review this thread, where have I argued anything about DFO versus other games? That is not what I am doing here. I am doing nothing more than pointing out your own hypocrisy. That is it. Stop adding chapters to this book that were never written to begin with. Like I said, you are a walking contradiction. And just another question...if the original post dealt with a screenshot and xfire numbers, why are you asking for screenshots from the "haters" game (which must include DFO, because we have now shown that yes, even DFO players can be haters by your own words)? What does that have to do with what DFO "renders", screenshots, xfire numbers, and you being a hypocrite? Especially when you are asking for this in reference to my posts calling you out on being a hypocrite, and quite simply pointing out the hypocrisy of your posts, and not truly arguing DFO versus other games? Please, explain, I need some more entertainment. Spin and divert, spin and divert, like you always do. I am truly curious to see this one. |
