Originally posted by Cecropia I have a love of offroading so I like to talk about all sorts of offroad vehicles of all sorts, offroad gear, offroad locations, and activities that one does while offroading. Why the fuck would I only talk about pickups in offroading when there is so much more. The end of this bizarre age of derp and throwing out meaningless memes like "entitlement" cannot come soon enough. |

Why not? Its already hard enough to sift through the CORPGs listed as MMOs on here.

It would probably be easier to just call all games MMOs than to get people to understand why we have categories.

I with the majority that MMORPG.com already covers a lot of MMORTS games and for that I'm thankful!
Thanks, |

Originally posted by nethervoid As stupid as that is, I think you're 100% correct. La la land is something to behold so close up. "I agree that "unimaginable complexity" is absurd, but so is comparing a single player game to an mmo. It's like comparing masturbation to sex, they are similar in some respects, but really are not comparable." -jimdandy26 |

Originally posted by Torvaldr You make so little sense its actually embarassing. I will TRY to explain. On the internet there are sites that are dedicated to certain topics. For this example lets say, cars. So you go to a car site to talk about any and all cars. But lets say you wanted to focus just on Ford, a normal person would assume that an actual Ford site/forum would probably have MUCH better Ford specific information than a Dodge, Honda or Toyota site. These specific sites do actually provide more detailed information! A Honda site isn't going to help you find that missing piece from an old Ford as easily as a Ford enthusiast website. This is where people who share a specific interest meet to share and gather information. In gaming there are many genres. Someone who likes an FPS may not like a Strategy game and vice-versa. So, what we have been doing for a long time as a society is categorizing things, kind of like in a library. This has been applied to games. So years ago what happened was a bunch of people found a common interest in a genre of gaming called MMORPG's. They created a website that was different from your general gaming websites in that it concentrates solely on MMORPGs. Over time the genre has grown, and we have accepted that MMO's in general are covered here. I for one like it. But the person you are defending is suggesting that we no longer focus on MMO's and instead focus on any multiplayer game. Now, if there are already sites that cover multiplayer games in general, why does this MMO site need to be the same as them? Why can't this one site focus on a specifc genre of games? You remind me of a lady I read of in the news just recently. She went to a barbershop that was advertised as "Men only" and was upset when she was turned down. She then tried to sue the barbershop owner!!!! Thing is, next door to him is a hair salon, and down the street are one of those dime a dozen hair cutter places. Why does she feel entitled to take this away from us? Afterall, just 2-3 blocks down from this barbershop is a womens only gym. I don't care about that. I understand why they want their own gym and respect it. This barbershop could close down and she would have just gone next door anyway. Let this site be. People on here argue, disagree, disrespect each other, work together, make friends and much more, and all because we share one common interest (MMO's in case its not getting through). Now you are trying to dilute that and turn it into something bland and tasteless. Go to gamespot.com if that is what you want. The end of this bizarre age of entitlement cannot come soon enough. |

I'm pretty much an exclusive fan of MMORPGS and I come to this site for that info. I'm ok with other genres invading this site as long as they aren't the majority...but I still voted no. Definitely not a fan of MOBA'S DOTA's RTS or whatever you want to call them this week. Looking for a virtual world not strategy games.

Most of the MMORTS games have RPG elements, so I really don't see why not.

I don't even think there are a lot of pure virtual world MMOs anymore. Many MMOs have an element of lobby co-op instance gaming. And many players play MMOs like a lobby game. This site obviously cover those, and even straight non-MMO like Diablo 3 because the play style is so close. I am all for widening the net. There is no reason why we cannot talk about all these online games with some RPG elements. |
