Most of us here share a passion, wich is mmorpgs, and even more, for the most part, we're eager to play CU if kickstarter funds, and even still, we still have a long way to go before the eventual launch.

For the past 6 weeks, we had more and more people joining on the conversations here, and we'll have plenty more in the next 2 and a half years. But slowly but surely, there is also more hostities that can be read.  

Everyone has a right to have different opinions, thoughts, how they see CU, their past MMO experiences etc. If everyone were alike, there would be ONE mmo and everybody who likes mmorpg would play it, and thank God we're all different. But there has to be one thing that we should all share.

Respect.

It would be nice if everyone could respect other people's opinion without hostilities, swearing and jumping at each other's digital throat :P Lets keep the hostilities (sane ones) for when CU launch, then it'll be time to slit each other's throat !

meanwhile lets respect each other's opinion. if hostility climbs, one must let it die, not put oil on an already burning fire.

We're in for a long ride, so lets keep it cool !

Funnily enough, I was thinking the opposite, BowBow.  I'm beginning to recognise names, and understand people's styles of writing. There are people I tend to agree with, and people I tend to disagree with.  

I think we're building a community, right here on the board, that will carry over to the backers forums and eventually the game.

When there's a mix of people there's always a mix of ideas and fights will break out, but the feel of this board is one of community. :)

Incidentally and by the by, I downloaded DAoC and started a new character tonight after 11 years away.  Level 12 in less than two hours! Wow, that's different from the first time!

I must say, it's stood the test of time extremely well and the music.. oh the music. It's like coming home :)

Hehe this just reminds me of how different ex-daoc players are from modern mmo players. Love your post and agree!

sad thing is modern mmo players would flame this kind of post cause they just don't get it... Fortunately I think cu will bring back accountability for your actions by the community.  Disrespectful players in game will witness fist hand the consequences of thir actions

I agree that mix of ideas can separate people on 2 sides of a fence, i'm not saying it shouldnt happen, just suggesting that respecting each other's opinion without telling them to STFU and stuff like that would make our community here more fun to be around.

As soon as i see language like that, i stop reading, and i'm probably not alone. And its too bad because sometimes good ideas could be mentionned in those posts, but it wont necessarly be read, and that is unfortunate.

This forum has been packed with creativity and mostly constructive feedback so far and Ive really enjoyed it.

I suppose there is.  I highly doubt that the Kickstarter on this will fail.  So, when/if this game gets back, it'll be interesting to see how the pre-game community moves to alpha backers, beta testers, and then to actual players.  Hopefully soon, we'll have an official site.   There's a lot of great insight (both constructive and respectfully destructive) out there spread out amongst a few boards.  Reminds a bit of the old VN boards.   One of my favorite quotes of how people should act en masse comes from a late 80's movie, "Be excellent to each other."  Sometimes that's all it takes.

As for the ideas, there's definitely been a lot of that.  There's been a lot of bravery behind for some of them.  It's amazing what you'll see when you know the devs are looking.  Ya know, who knows if thing you've always wanted to see in your 1-10+ year mmo career might get picked up.

Great post, BowBowDAOC.

I couldn't agree more.  Although we all will disagree at times, it's important to give the person on the other end of the post the respect they deserve.  As Ellya pointed out, you begin to get a feel for people's writing styles, personalities, and overall attitudes.

I've been pleasantly surprised by this community, thus far.  Overwhelmingly positive.  Yes, there are a few heated debates with some vitriol here and there, but this is the interwebs and that is to be expected.

I'm pretty confident that if the in-game community is half as positive as this board, it will be a great experience.

All of you can diaf!

Seriously though...

...I'm joking

DIE YOU DIRTY HIBBIE!!!!

Er...I mean yes...its good to see old friends and foe's from DAOC and meet new one's.  One of my best friends in RL now is somebody I met playing DAOC.  Heck, last night playing Rift I was talking to some random person who turned out to be an old DAOCer and I pointed them towards Camelot Unchained info. 

As much as the VN server boards has their loads of smack talk, it was almost an extension of the RvR in game.  Their were plenty of good fight, congrat posts, as well as OMG MIDNIGHT RELIC RAID posts.  Fun times.

^^^This.

Oh, and die with festering boils, you aurochs-butt-smelling Mid!

Cheerio chaps! Self-righteous Albion here. :p

I've posted elsewhere how much I love the community in DAoC. I'm all for creating a great community based on respect here. I guess I hope to get to know you guys well enough that I want to play the next MMO to take up my time with you. Perhaps I'll find a guild here? I for one will do my part to make the community for CU an inviting and flameless one.

Out of all the other MMOs I have played, DAoC always had a strong community and it felt like they really listened to you.  I remember there was a suggestion feature on the Herald and it seemed like they took the player's feedback into making the game better overall.  Sure, there was the "Nerf this class!" or "I am too nerfed!" battles, but that is the fun and annoying of these types of games--extremely hard to balance.

Agree BowbowDAoC part of my fondest DAOC memories were the kindness of strangers. Who can recall getting a drive by buff as I call them.
