Originally posted by Vutar Heh... I gotta admit I was thinking the same thing.
I mean at least one of these people posting those kind of threads has to re-read it and then think... you know... perhaps I should take my own advice.
These forums are what they are... if they upset you so much, just don't read them. Problem solved.
I'll be taking a break from posting for awhile anyway though, so something for some to be happy about I suppose. I'll still be lurking from time to time though. I'll get a bit more active again closer to the end of Feb. Please show where I am being a fanboi.
Comprehension FTL... I did not call you a fanboi directly. However you should take your own advise since you sem to give it so liberally... If you do not like what is being posted on these forums you should refraine from viewing them. Complaining about people complaining is simply idiotic.

Please show where I am being a fanboi. Actually I don't believe YOU were called a fanboi. Although if you are feeling defensive about it.... |

Go ahead and review my post history on here or the official forums. Same name. Feel free to post anything as to why I would feel guilty. |

Anyway, all of you enjoy your hating. Heh if I was aventurine or tasos I would keep doing what they are doing just to piss you off. |

Heh... for not being defensive or guilty... you sure are taking offense to something that nobody has stated you are. |

Originally posted by Vutar Last comment aside. I am not at all upset about a single thing Tasos declared/promised/guaranteed/said/proclaimed about Darkfall. I simply think they are going to rip the mmo world blind followed by claims of how much great stuff is yet to come because (insert excuse here) just so they can continue to rip the mmo world blind. I don't really care what the legion of fans calls me either, it isn't about them, they are sold, and will allow themselves to be ripped for months (starting with a pre-order I might add). As for everyone else, the newcomers that is, they deserve to hear both sides. Basically, I am treating Darkfall like SWG:NGE. Afterall, the only thing that started my inspection of Darkfall was a blitz of negative ratings, and a splash of Drakfall trolling in the SWG refugee forums here on mmorpg.com. So, you got my attention, now you can deal with my opinion of the "game." Played (more than a month): SWG, Second Life, Tabula Rasa, Lineage 2, Everquest 2, EvE, MxO, Ryzom. Tried: WoW, Shadowbane, Anarchy Online, Everquest, WWII Online, Planetside Beta: Lotro, Tabula Rasa, WAR. |

They have invested more than you could ever understand, and at this point they are just hating to hate. I seriously wonder what they are going to do with their free time once this game is released... I believe for at least a week their lives will feel pretty hollow. |

I think that was your 20th post! You are not aventurtine or tasos. So, from the way I see it, your preview of the game is about as good as anyone elses. The only difference is that you are buying the promises hook-line-sinker-and-worm. No one here (mmorpg) is pissed off as far as I know. We just refuse to find common ground with posters who haven't a minute experience with what they are advocating. It's pretty simple to be honest, and has generated quite the number of funny-as-hell posts on the forums.

I'd love to know how much is it costing for the people creating topics such as "please stop posting unless it's for praising", I've seen quite some of them by now. If it's breaking the forum rules, report it. If it bothers you but it's legit, ignore. If you can't take the criticism at a game (well in this case it's more about a company's development process and it's PR), there's a place where anything remotely negative is blocked right away, it's called Forumfall. |

Fans of the game have a rational reason to care about negative press for the game. It may depress the eventual population and have real impact on their personal enjoyment when the game does released.
I'm having trouble seeing any rational reason for a hater to post frequently. |

Then they should actually care about what Aventurine is doing and the run around BS they spouting. They should also care about the lack of any press, be it good or bad, surrounding the game at this point. No previews from independant sources No gameplay vids that show actual gameplay (save for the same 7 vids they keep showing over and over and over...) Bad press is better than no press at all. Sadly the only press this game gets is vague press releases from 1 guy, which just happens to be the same press release that was posted a month ago, a month before that, 6 months before that one and 2 years before that. |

Originally posted by Vutar That is funny. It seems that if you headed Aventurine it would lose more money than its already losing. And yes, it is losing money because with every lie, delay, etc.... more and more people and losing interest in the game. |

yeah hi, how are you? i'm doing good, thanks for asking. how much are darkfaIlers getting paid to spam the internet promoting this game? because i know it's not costing me anything to get really aggravated with darkfaIler poastings on forums that have NOTHING to do with darkfaIl and that spam is really quite annoying. so maybe if rabid fanbois would leave other people alone....
could we please get correspondent writers and moderators, on the eve forum at mmorpg.com, who are well-versed on eve-online and aren't just passersby pushing buttons? pretty please? |

seriously, if you're here to do damage control or viral poastings on behalf of darkfall (i.e. they're paying you)... you're not going about it correctly.

Naw, pretty sure once (or rather, if ever) DF releases there will be plenty of comedy that weil ensure lively forum posting for quite some time to come. Then of course, it will fade into obscurity, as all games eventually do.

It's because there's no way we'll miss a release date and we're not going to just set a date as a goal, and either postpone or be forced to release something unfinished. We resolve to stick with our release date because we know how people tend to plan around this as far as organization, time and hardware goes when they're looking to make a commitment to an MMORPG, especially a competitive one like Darkfall." I will give Tasos this much - at least he likely understands, even if you dont. |
