Randomizer Law Bringer Member # 6785	written Monday, August 14 2006 17:53 Profile #0 quote: Originally written by Jeff Vogel: First, people who inhabit online forums are idiotic losers. Oh, my God. Where do they get these people? Are they bred in vats? Is there a giant, invisible conspiracy of married cousins with DSL? What is it about game company online forums that makes people so dumb... that makes it so even the simplest, most obvious comment or complaint is met with arguments and flames? What do you think? This is only part of his rant and in context it makes more sense, but are we idiotic losers. More importantly does he count on his gang of idiots to fund his children's college education.

Goldenking Agent Member # 4574	written Monday, August 14 2006 18:06 Profile #1 Look at it from his point of view. We got one look at Avernum IV and said it was crap. We got to the end of Avernum III and said that he totally misused the Vahnatai. Also think not of yourself, but of others. People like Ed must make him want to take down the forums. It's a miracle the TM hasn't gotten a permanent ban. So to answer your question, yes and no. Oh and this thread is a good example of "... that makes it so even the simplest, most obvious comment or complaint is met with arguments and flames?" -------------------- Constitutional monarchies are the in monarchies.

Spidweb Board Administrator Member # 1	written Tuesday, August 15 2006 13:08 Profile Homepage #3 I will also point out that the article was specifically about MMORPGs. I defy anyone to go to the official World of Warcraft or Everquest forums and find that that are a generally useful and intelligent place. The people on the Spiderweb forums are generally friendly and useful, and I engage them on and off for actual feedback. Anyone who's been in the Geneforge 4 forum know that I have been taking and implementing actual suggestions from the community. Avernum 5 will incorporate suggestions from Avernum 4. But anyone who wants to take quotes out of context from a humor column and turn it into a big emo drama is welcome to, I suppose. - Jeff Vogel -------------------- Official Board Admin spidweb@spiderwebsoftware.com Posts: 960 \| Registered: Tuesday, September 18 2001 07:00
