Lunarionsilver does this look familiar? "I am a long standing member and fan of Bioware. Both the company and
community have been great over the years. I'm looking to add my talents
into the modding community of Bioware. My respect for the talented and
creative modders holds no equal."
It should it's on your page.... Yet you still give them a bad name.


How is Lunarion giving the Bioware modding community a bad name? Posted Image

wasnt that a quote from a movie? btw where do you get that banner, I NEED IT SO MUCH (im just being hyperbolic so please dont hate me)


Maybe, I'm not sure. It just popped into my head, so who knows. I thought it sounded catchy.

Just right click the image and save it. Then upload it to whatever image host you want and enjoy.

Oh yes, and that doesn't change. Just because I enjoy the games that Bioware produces and respect the work they do doesn't mean I have to like everything they do, now does it?

I didn't think so.

My respect for Bioware has dwindled lately, but that doesn't change the fact I enjoy their work. Besides, if you read that information correct, it states my 'respect for the talented and creative modders holds no equal.

The only thing i can think of is:

"Remember Terra Firma on election day! Because Terra Firma, remembers you."

From Mass Effect 1, when you're grounded on the Citadel.

Bahhh! Baahhhh!


It's really unfair to make fun of the eligible people, it's not our fault BioWare, rather EA made these dumb rules. If you were eligible, you know you'd be doing the exact same thing.


I live in Maryland, U.S.A. I am very much eligible. I refuse to take part in this marketing ploy. Its insulting to 90% of the community as a whole. I dont blame BioWare as much as I do EA. Regardless its a mockery of intelligent loyal fans.

Amen to that.(Refusing)  Its just a cheap $60,000 marketing tool.  You know how much commericial time costs. Their just trying to save money and make members do the work also.

so did bioware respond at all today? Ive been at work for the past 14 hours.
Edit: Dude i was so pissed about this it i was actually thinking about it today. There must be a ****storm going on at HQ.
"Can you feel it? The ****-winds are coming, Bubbles."


I would also like to know how they're responding.  Any kind of response would be better than silence.  Even a simple "we're sorry to have built up everyone's expectations for something that didn't include everyone" would suffice.

And because I particularly love this banner: Posted Image

Really Bioware/EA, you've trolled the community for long enough, haven't you?



You might want to announce just when similar contest(s) will become available for the rest of the community, before all respect bleeds out and history only remembers the memes birthed from it.

Good for you, but it still isn't their fault. Rage against the machine all you want, but you can't force everyone to care about your little crusade. Let the people have their fun, and take out your fustration on the people that deserve it.

I feel bad that many people got cut from this and I know they feel betrayed, but that doesn't change the fact that this thing is happening and I'm going to compete. BioWare/EA isn't going to change anything about this, so life goes on. It's not healthy to dwell over this.

And I know it's been less than 24 hours since this news broke and it's still shocking and upsetting to everyone, but if everyone was eligible than everyone would be posting up ther url's.

Me doing so isn't in a disrepectful way, I'm just trying to gain as many tokens as I can so I can win an N7 Hoody. I don't have the money to buy one right now, so I'm looking at this as a perfect opportunity to get one. One man's loss is another man's fortune.

Unexcited. Can't use any of my 2500tokens, because I live in europe. If this is celebrating their fan base, it's not celebrating a large area of it ...
Guess I'm not an elligable fan<_<

Bioware aren't responding for one of two reasons, or possibly, both:

The first is that they do not wish to address the community whilst tempers are high. The community is angry, and anything they say (even if it's intended to placate people) will just end in more angry posts. Bioware are probably still internally asking questions themselves as to how this actually happened, who is responsible, and how they can go about not repeating this farce in the future. As others have said, this is probably the result of Bioware being a facade for their owners, EA.

The second is that it seems to be completely standard for Bioware to ignore its community. Chris Priestly and Stanley Woo will, on occasion, chip in to inflame or mislead people in obscure ways - but never will you get a straight answer from either of them. They've both had decades of experience dealing with people over the internet, and their speech is always shrouded in political hyperbole. The more unfortunate thing is that the community managers would have been directed not to say anything. As much as I’m sure both Chris and Stanley sympathise with the situation, they’re powerless to change it and are more than likely not in any position to respond in any way as advocates for Bioware as a whole.

So, when you take this whole situation in to consideration and look at Biowares' history with such matters, we've got two chances of receiving a response at this point: somewhere between stuff-all and none. Don’t expect one.
