But I guess that's just the way. Wait until people get fed up, post on a blog and all hell breaks loose. The domino effect is definitely "working as intended".Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13266751.post-1148765121589778312006-05-27T17:25:00.000-04:002006-05-27T17:25:00.000-04:00Can we get an amen!

There must always be the rank-and-file players in a virtual universe. We that don't mind farming and crafting to maintain the economy beyond the phat loot. The days when and MMO can miss large portions of player populations is over. EQ1 was during a unique time and thus lasted without masses. I don't think that is possible again unless your EVE Online with an extremely unique game.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13266751.post-1148659277291246172006-05-26T12:01:00.000-04:002006-05-26T12:01:00.000-04:00So all in all, "legit" beta tester find V:SOH too ...So all in all, "legit" beta tester find V:SOH too much time consuming ?

I left and only came back recently.<BR/><BR/>I'm sorry but after reading tons of idiotic posts and ridiculous banter, I am turning right back around and going back where I came from.... with pleasure, too! Whatever is there is certainly NOT worth getting involved in. It's not gold. It's not even copper.<BR/><BR/>This is a sickness to me. While I commend those trying to instill some form of order in that place (VOH Forums), I see no one in authority telling them to STFU!<BR/><BR/>It's just a bunch of out-of-control people having a free-for-all, hating on those who are trying to help them.<BR/><BR/>I'm afraid the OP is correct. It will be the fans who kill off that game.<BR/><BR/>I won't be a part of it. It's just nauseating to read and certainly not a good community to want to be involved with if and when that game comes out.<BR/><BR/>Poor Heartless. I saw your posts too, but I'm afraid you're not going to get anywhere with those folks. They're on a feeding frenzy. Someone needs to yank their leashes, but it doesn't appear to be happening.<BR/><BR/>Sad! Just OH! Pathetic!!!<BR/><BR/>All this over one person's beta experience and because he/she pointed squarely at the fanbois (among other things).<BR/><BR/>Even worse, he/she stepped out of their domain to post it. How horrid? Oh please, spare me! Get a grip over there already!<BR/><BR/>Yet the person who it was written for, hasn't said one word.<BR/><BR/>Bye Vanguard! I wish you a lot of luck! You're going to need it.<BR/><BR/>MichelleAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
