Ag, don't bother to respond; it's a troll. I reported him/her for harassment of Vamp, too.

Yup. Reported.:police:

You could always just send people to other websites like "The Case for Cullen" or whichever. That seems like a good place to answer the question of "why do people want Cullen to be in DAI?"

That's true, but it could also be very handy for in the future if he is announced as a companion/NPC/seen in a video like GW guy and "Sera" before any official reveal.
The forum will get more and more busy the closer we get to release, that usually generates more genuine interest in, well, anything.

It'd be nice to just link a nice summary of as many frequent questions we all get to people who are curious, 'cause I know a lot of us get tired of repeating ourselves. Whether or not they decide to be catty afterwards is uncontrollable.

Like I said, it was just a thought I had. :D

It was removed! Yay, awesome mods! :wizard: Coming here and being belligerent and childish is one thing, but getting personal and harassing one of our fellow Cullenites is where I draw the line. I'll ignore the former... but not the latter.

No, it's a good idea. I worded what I meant poorly. Like I said, things sound clear in my brain, and come out jumbled when I try to convey what I mean, lol.

In conjunction to your idea, maybe adding links to other places such as "The Case for Cullen in DAI" would be beneficial as well.

Basically that vamp only likes Cullen because she is obvs just a silly, silly fangirl and lolwimminz.

Just a bored troll.

@Chanda

That sounds like a good idea too. :happy:

So... What kind of things do you think should go into the Cullen FAQ, and where will the Cullen FAQ be?

I guess the first thing would be a run down of his story arc so far, so that they can read at a glance what he's experienced across the two games. Then move onto why we find that interesting etc.

No offense guys, but sometimes I wonder , why even bother with such a thing as an FAQ (no offense to those who have suggested it) I'm just saying because if someone hates a character and refuses to see reason or a different perspective you will never be able to change the mind of such a person. Its gonna remain stubborn even if proven otherwise.As mmg has mentioned before if someone is truly interested in Cullen or any other character they wont just come in here and ask "why do u guys like him and why do u guys have 3000 pages of him" they would just simply join in with us without any harassment, as I did or as any other newcomer of this thread.

ag99: True, but we do also get people asking who are genuinely curious, so it would be worth writing one up for them. We could direct them to it and then they could ask any subsequent questions after.

Yeah, that's true, remember Xil? (Forget how to spell her whole name.) She was not a fan, but she was genuinely curious and very polite.

^Basically, also covering that his epilogue slides were retconned. Lots of people still ask about that.

If you want to be really simple, you can divide up many parts of his story so far.

ex. Cullen was so nice to my f!Amell but now he is so mean to mages!!
-insert a few lines about his torture by blood mages in DAO and how it affected him-

The only place I can think to post it is tumblr since apparently the BSN is going to get rid of blogs. I have no fracking idea how to use the site either.

I think she had an Asari for her avatar, right? She wasn't a fan of Cullen, didn't even like him and was very pro-mage and anti-templar if I remember correctly. Also very protective about Merrill.

That's the one, lol. Also, Danny wasn't a Cullen fan when he first came here and asked us why we liked him and he ended up becoming a fan himself, lol.

This was posted in that Cullen thread, I thought maybe it would be good to have handy:

Here is what Mr. Gaider says

"Cullen to me represents another side of Templars which is a side that we
need to keep active. Not all Templars are these heartless bastards who
would happily torture mages, that's not true, there are Templars who are
good people. I think Cullen is a good man who recognizes that there are
dangerous in magic, dangers that have to be dealt with, but he doesn't
lack for compassion and doesn't try to say "Well, let's take the hard
approach and kill everybody and let the Maker sort them out." At the end
of DA2 he's the person who sort of tries to put on the brakes, the
voice of sanity if you will. I think that's important to represent, so
in that respect I like the idea of Cullen reappearing, I like that
element of his character, so it's definitely a possibility."

Also,

But wasn't Cullen also torturing/raping mages in Kirkwall too?

From the word of God.

That is true Xil was not a fan but she didnt  come here and bash the fans. Its true that some of the ppl even if they are not fans are trying to make some sort of sense of why we like him but for the most part there are ppl  like in that other Cullen thread who only see the negative side and stick with it and refuse to see otherwise.  But  yea in the end I think the FAQ would be good for those who are TRULY  intrested and not just come here for trolling, or just boredom. There was also another post made by a girl a while back witch I think explained Cullen pretty well , I will see if I can find it

That Cullen turned Anders thread is just outright bizarre now.

I'm just loling so much now. :lol::lol:

This is why I don't like to finish all my school work early. I don't have anything else to do right now besides spamming today. B)

I wrote the entire first page of the Joker thread, and whenever someone came into the thread asking about Joker and WHY we liked him so much, it was my job to post the link to the first page.

"y u like joker he'll break"
"Here's the link, and here's an article on his disease. Have a nice day."

Even if the visitor did not actually look at the article, it was there in case someone did. I even linked it in my signature for a long time. If anything, it's a nice thing to have because we got tired of telling people too - especially since our reasons were on the first page!

EDIT:
Is it the full moon? There is an influx of Cullen hate in confessions, memes, and threads! It's like...everyone's afraid of Valentine's Day! :lol:

Honestly, I don't think anything will be reavealed on V-Day. *shrug*

I had not considered this possibility! But you make a good point, lol
