Nah, he was saying that if the detractors try stifling the words of thanks with their bitterness again, bans will be handed out...just as they would be if the roles were reversed.
So basically a contrary vew.

Well what's the point in explaining why I dislike a game when Bioware have heard the reason people may dislike DA2 a gazillion times already?

If you're civil in your disagreement, please, feel free to continue disagreeing. We've never banned someone for simple criticism or disagreement because, hey, that's what the forums are for - sharing your opinion in a respectful manner that contributes to a positive environment for discussion.
If you decide that the rules of civil discourse do not apply to you then, yes, you will probably be banned. Life is unfair. I suggest acceptance.

The problem is not people telling BioWare what they don't like about the game. The problem is that whenever someone makes a thread saying 'I love DA2 because of X,Y and Z' a bunch of people reply saying 'DA2 sucks' with no constructive comment. This is tedious, repetative and does not make for interesting discussion. (Especially since it is generally followed by people complaining about complaining, as I am doing now.)

I have to agree with the OP that Dragon Age 2 is a good game, I don't understand all the hate for it, but don't worry, just play and enjoy your game

Has any other game disappointed you so much that you complained about it on the developers' forums for a year?
Not being sarky, genuine question! If I had the internet when the fourth Spyro game was released I would have done the same.

When I play games, I either like them, or I just get bored of them and don't bother with them. With DA2, I was buoyed up on my love of DA:O, so I went in to it thinking "hell yeah, a continuation of the DA story!", y'know, expecting something great like Origins was.
Played DA2 (three times in fact, for each "personality"), thought it was pretty good at first (funnily enough, I actually told myself toward the end of my first playthrough to treasure this experience because it won't be repeated, oh how true that turned out to be), but then through starting to frequent BSN and reading peoples' views on it, and my enjoyment of Origins starting to fade (since I hadn't played it for a bit, so I wasn't as smitten as I was before), people would bring up some flaws and I'd think "hey, I agree with this", and I found that just happening constantly, and that these negative things regarding the game just built up, and I reflected on the positives and negatives of the game itself and found that it just had such an overwhelming number of negatives that my resentment of the game began to manifest itself (the motives behind the changes Bioware made in DA2 and thinking about what DA2 could have been were two huge factors behind this), and just grow
To the point that I have an almost psychotic hatred of DA2. I'm not even going to bother with saying that it's dumb because it's "just a game", because games can affect people quite strongly all the time.

I have got to say this is the weirdest reason to dislike a game I've ever seen, I really can't even begin to understand you.. I mean you enjoyed the game enough to play three times.. you had your misgivings with it (I think we all do) but because other people with the same misgivings hated it and didn't enjoy it... you yourself now hate it and don't enjoy it?
Fair enough, but.. well I dunno, I figure if you enjoy something you enjoy it and everyone else be damned.
Anyway, I like this thread, I 've seen too many forums (basically all of the ones I've seen and not excluding BSN) become breeding grounds for vitriol and holier than thou ness and it makes a nice so I tip my top hat to you OP (yes I have a top hat I'm English

I'd hardly say eventually being able to open my eyes to the faults in DA2 is a weird reason for hating the game. I did my two later playthroughs because I was hoping that things would change if I made different "decisions", but nothing did whatsoever. I was just playing along the storyline in my first playthrough, but then later I realised how Hawke is just manipulated by absolutely everyone, becoming everyone's b*tch and doesn't bother to try and include himself in affairs unless he is absolutely forced to, say I dunno, the entire city goes to sh*t (more than it currently is) with a Qunari invasion or a mage rebellion, I found the companions just one-dimensional and/or annoying, being forced down three personalities was annoying since there were times I just found the tones available inappropriate for a situation, and well when it comes to the combat, I didn't like that from the moment I played the demo.

The fact is there are people who've just tried the game and want to put in their two cents as well. You can't fault them for that. Had the game been better received, then you would have been exposed to less negative feedback.
Ha, that's a laugh. ME2 is Bioware's highest rated game of all time and people are still whining about things. The same things. Over and over and over again. Things that Bioware has flat out said are going to remain the same for ME3. Things that aren't going to change no matter how much they post about it.
No, the BSN is just filled with people who like to complain about stuff.

I think part of why I hate DAII is that it's the Cliffnotes version of what DAII should've been.

Ignore the posts that give no reason, but pay attention to those who do because the reasoning goes beyond the blind reaction to change. There is thought behind those posts. The same logic can and should be applied to posts where someone states, "I LOVE THIS GAME!" in big, bold letters with nothing else vs. ones that do hail a game but also provide a reasoning for why.
