I believe in life before death... So dont forget to enjoy it while you still can. |
I havent been posting on the MMORPG.com website regularly for quite some time now. Seeing all the negativisme about GW2 on these boards made me think a lot. I am still enjoying the game very much. But since the same people that attackked all the other MMo´s released in recent years tried to make me beleive that GW2 was a really bad game (which it isnt) i realised that the majorrity of posters on this board is negative beyound reason.
Everyone enjoy whatever game you are playing, and i will spend my time online in a more friendly envoronment with people that still enjoy MMO´s.
I just tought i had to share this on these boards making a statement that most MMO´s including GW2 are much better games then the majorrity of people try to make you beleive on these boards.
I am done... Best MMO experiences : EQ(PvE), DAoC(PvP), WoW(total package) |

Originally posted by Lord.Bachus To be honest, it's a bit discouraging to me as well. Intentional misinformation posted again and again about more than just GW2 starts to make me believe that boards can sometimes be counter productive to the genre. I hope the community wakes up and realizes that they may be possibly killing their own favorite kinds of games by being so negative and attacking everything under the sun. Take care! If in 1982 we played with the current mentality, we would have burned down all the pac man games since the red ghost was clearly OP. Instead we just got better at the game. |

We'll welcome you back as soon as you realize GW2 really is as bad as the worst of us believe. See you soon. |

Originally posted by Lord.Bachus Agreed, I am enjoying GW2 a lot. I hope you enjoy whereever you go for a forum/community. I don't post on here as much as I use. I am simply enjoying the games I am playing :) |

Originally posted by grndzro Case in point. Thank you for illustrating what the OP was talking about. Instead of discussing the merits of the game, you simply bash it. This does nothing to advance the ongoing GW2 discussion nor is it helpful. If yoru post was deleted by mods, you'd simply claim that it was because you said something bad about GW2. The real reason is that you simply post something negative as an absolute fact with no room for debate. If in 1982 we played with the current mentality, we would have burned down all the pac man games since the red ghost was clearly OP. Instead we just got better at the game. |

Feeling exactly the same as you. the amount of hate, missinformation and desire for MMOs to FAIL is beyond ridiculous on this forum. Let them hate it, I am glad I have MMO that I enjoy and that I will enjoy in years to come...... |

Try not to let it get to you so much. Easier said than done, I know.....but I (somehow) found a way even though SWTOR is public enemy #1 on these boards.
Release a game with a very large established fanbase from 10+ years of bnet history when the market was still emerging and the casual base had not yet been established, thus ripe for harvesting a momentious self perpetuating playerbase people never leave because they have X hours invested in their characters, and their friends and everyone else plays anyway. Not discounting Blizzard quality... but WoW's success is as much about perfect timing as it is quality, if not more so. - Derros |

Originally posted by Lord.Bachus You can't let people get to you, hopefully that's a lesson you can learn from leaving. There are a bunch of big swingin' dicks around here who really love to stir shit up for no particular reason, but no matter which community you enter, people like them will be there to ruin your good time, or they'll find you eventually. While I respectfully disagree with your sentiment regarding the most recently released MMO's, in particular GW2, I think most posters here wouldn't want you to stop playing a game you enjoyed, or even convince you to, if that's how you felt.

I can't speek for "WE" but I can say that the OP echos a larger segment of these boards than you may think. If in 1982 we played with the current mentality, we would have burned down all the pac man games since the red ghost was clearly OP. Instead we just got better at the game. |

The best thing about it all, the actual trolls dont get punished, just those trying to defend against them do. The infractions I have gotten have all been defensive replies, mostly with ACTUAL DETAILED refutes in them along with a "youre just trolling", my posts get deleted, their replies with nothing more than attacks and no actual refutes remain.

Originally posted by Lord.Bachus I agree with you, that's why I rarely discuss anything on this subforums lately... Even on this thread I bet some people will say something like.... expect to see you soon, gw2 is really bad, etc.. etc... when 90% of those who claim it never even played the game...

Originally posted by grndzro This is the attitude he was talking about. Just because YOU don't like it, doesn't mean it is a bad game. Ever think you may be in the minority?
To the OP - I consider the source and move on. |

Everyone has their own opinion, might differ from your own but that happens wherever you go, there will always be people who don't have the same opinion of things that you do. While i don't think GW2 is a bad game exactly, i just dont consider it to be that good of a game either, but only because it doesnt support the type of gameplay that i enjoy, likewise, im pretty sure that i play a game or two that you would feel are not worth your time, not everyone enjoys Eve after all

I am like you, but instead of the posters making me quit, its this site moderation like people on this thread have pointed it out
But good luck for you mate

Originally posted by FuryV The point of this thread is to echo a growing opinion about the tone of an increasing number of posts on this website. There is nothing wrong with no liking a game, but using MMORPG.COM as a platform in an attemmpt to derail a game and/or spread misinformation is a big issue. The mods can only do so much. Sooner or later you have to decide whether or not you fit in with the community, and he's decided he doesn't fit in if the community is just going to keep posting negative 'facts' with no room for debate or discussion. If in 1982 we played with the current mentality, we would have burned down all the pac man games since the red ghost was clearly OP. Instead we just got better at the game. |

Originally posted by FuryV I feel the same about the haters - they have to announce it to the world that GW2 is going down, BECAUSE THEY HATE IT. Go on get over yourself. If the haters can post, so can the OP. |

Originally posted by grndzro I agree with OP. The negativity borders on idiocy (for most not all) comments. As to the above... when will YOU realize that what you THINK is bad could be fun for someone else. This blatent push of opinion as fact is discouraging. Just say YOU dont like GW2 and why (if you can articulate it). But let those who enjoy the game enjoy it. |
