That fanboy that defends his game to no end or that so called ''troll'' that points out every flaw in a competitors game and makes It look bad, don't be so easily decieved, things are not always what they appear to be.

Many of them are spies for their respective game companies. They use ''normal'' looking accounts to get inside information and disguise themselves as regular gamers to make their respective games look good or their competitors look bad.

This is a known fact within the gaming industry and if you ask many MMORPG companies out there about It they can confirm the aforesaid as the truth.

They also do this with competitors games and try to get into their Beta's by looking like a normal regular fan of their competitors game when there really there to get the inside scoop.

Looks can be deceiving.

If you were such a spy and you didn't want people to suspect that you might be a spy, your best course of action would probably be to leave a post like the OP did. Nobody would ever suspect a thing if you laid it on the table in plain view like this.


Well played... well played.

You do realize that MMORPG.com released what users do on the site, not too long ago.......... right?

Like 5% used the forums.

Does the 5% count everyone that views the forums, or just those that post on them. Just thinking that there are always a lot of guests on, and even with people comming on the promote their game of choice and put down other they would be able to spread misinformation to the guests. I am also very surprised that the number would only be 5% considering that forums make up a majority of the site, but I have been surprised by many things in the past so it wouldn't be anything new.

Remember Rabbids cant play MMO's, but they can dance!

Yes there are. A good example is SignusM of the Darkfall forums who is also revealed to be a Darkfall forum moderater. They are amoung us people.....be very afaraid.......

(AAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHH..... hides in the bushes waiting to ambush Trolls and fanbois alike)

The ONLY opinion that matters if I like or dislike about a game is mine and mine alone.

Playing: SWTOR and World of Tanks.

Your point is? We have known that for a long time. This is not a shocking new revalation. As has been said, we have found DF forum mods posting here, SOE employees posting here and so on. I personally could care less. I dont use posts on a forum to sway my views, I form them on my own.

I do not believe that picture at all... Seriously no conspiracy theorist would openly take a picture of himself in a aluminum foil hat. Would just make him easier for the government or the aliens to find and eliminate. The cat even looks like it knows this photo is a bad idea.

Lol, the cat in the tinfoil hat is pretty. Yeah, conspiracies theories are usually a function of over active imginations.

Dude, im amazed you would question the integrity of forum trolls. Most haters/fanboys do actually conduct themselves by very high standards of whatever their own personal wacked view of ethics is. Really, how much would you pay someone to troll a forum? Do you give them a productivity bonus for posts produced or do you limit their posting so they will be well liked?

Yea, once in a while a viral campaign may stray in here but trolls pretty much pick their bones clean.

Edit; Ive seen that cat before, I think he works for homeland security...

Just to make things clear...
I speak for myself and no one else, unless i state otherwise mine is just an opinion. A fact is something that can be independently verified, you may challenge such but with proof. You have every right to disagree with me through sound argument, i believe in constructive debate, but baseless aggression will warrant an unkind response.
