Anyone could easily see that except the pussies who are actually hurt because someone insulted my computer genereated guy I run around! No matter how ignorant you want to be this site leaves people very anonymous. If your getting all butthurt about having your character made fun of you need couseling.

First off I want to say Ishbu is a complete ass who flames the fuck out of people just for disagree'ing with his Tier 8 crusade or anything regarding raiding.
Having said that, he is 100% right about be anonymous.
The second part however is incorrect. How can you of all people, who post with the passion/anger/frequency that you do not understand how people get butthurt. I could ask you why you get all buthurt the contents not hard enouph for you, or butthurt cause itemization sucks, after all its just a bunch of digital crap on your digital character why get upset about it?

Re: Freedom of Expression - let's talk
The complaints lodged are an excuse. The class boards have been extremely helpful. Show me a thread where someone asked a question and was flammed off the site in those sections?

Re: Freedom of Expression - let's talk
Both you people are actually kind of dumb, I post here, I dont get upset and say Im afraid to post here because people are mean or disagree with me. Ill tell they are a fucking moron instead.
How you can say that is anything like people getting their feelings hurt so they are afraid to post here is just plain stupid on your part.
Coyote, its evident though that your the one trying to fool people. Are you saying I know anything about you in the real world right now because you post here? Are you? If your not, then its because this site allowed you to remain anonymous while still posting on it. Get a clue, Im sorry your too stupid to see this, but seriously try and figure out. Maybe go ask your friends because I dont think you have the actual brain capacity for it.

That sounds like the right kind of reply from someone who realizes how fucking wrong they were the whole time.

I never said you where afraid to post. I said you got upset. Some people when theyget upset withdraw, other people when they get upset call people "fucking moron".
In any case, I think your a self-centered blowhard, but I in no why think you, or anything you say should be moderated in any way shape or form.

Of course Im self centered, you would have to be fucking stupid to think I play this game for anyone else but myself. Anyone who claims they are, is lieing.

He always starts out strong and runs out of gas.
The one liners mean he's out of things to say. The only thing we need now are his right and left nuts to show up.
Saying that? His opinion is still important just like everyone elses. He's definitely not fooling anyone though.

Not flamed off the site, but a fun discussion quashed by the exact type of behaviour I believe is being discussed in this topic:
http://eq2flames.com/showthread.php?t=4652
Nearly all the class forums have similar discussions, yet you have a few folks that bring nothing to the discussion chime in and it dies from lack of participation. You have everything in that example this thread is discussing. An avid poster that is typically full of insightful and useful information, a member of a guild that is recognized (if not loved) by the raiding community to be among the best WW, and *gasp* the forum leader. All proceed to speak out against the topic even being discussed at all. Result? Dead thread.
Yeah, it's my post. You wanted an example and it was the first that came to mind for the purpose of this discussion.

Forum Utopia would be nice. The flames kept where they belong and the honest, informative posts where they belong. The inherent nature of da intarweb prevents this from existing in the same place. You want civil discussion on the 'net? Moderate heavy and often. You want freedom to speak out against 'the man' in his face? Welcome to EQ2Flames.
|
Oh no, no ones asking for a utopia, I love lively, argumentative discussion as much as anyone else. However why would I or anyone else interested in relevant discussion want to continue to post when we would be harrasses or our threads derailed by the idiot trolls? One of the things the site owner LFG has continually promoted is diversity of opinions here. How can this be accomplished when anyone that thinks differently is constantly treated in that way? They can be tough as nails but explain to me why they would continue to post here and contribute if they are met with nothing but trolling and stupidity?
I'll be honest I dont know what the answer will be. I will say that the best discussions about games and gaming I have are on moderated sites like MMORPG and WOWLadies. They are moderated but not as anally (from what I have seen) as SOE. And they are far from utopias. I have tried many times to have discussions here and in about 75 percent of the cases have been met with the same idiots and their same stupidity. How much longer must one try?
