For anyone keeping track, it's been a full month since Casey Hudson has updated his twitter.

Hopefully that means he's got is head down with the rest of the team in an attempt to appease at least a large part of the fan base, they are certainly not going to please everyone, that's pretty evident in just Retake alone.

They'll never be able to please everyone but they can at least create something that will please the majority as a compromise.

Good morning all, it seems there has been some interesting discussion while I was away. Everyone well?

I have been aware of it a few hours now, I'm surprised it was allowed to go on as long as it did.

So was I but for me this forum isn't as bad as others.  I'm a Whovian and the venom on DW forums has even shocked me between pro and anti Moffat.  Last night I finally had enough and will take a long break from being active on it.

Hey Kyria~!

[Goodwood]

Welcome back, Phoenix! *big hug*

It does indeed seem as though it's been an interesting night. I'll give the community (in this thread, at least) one big win for: we're certainly not above admitting when we're incorrect or have made an error.

Oh, and Miranda has nice...well, you know...

I haven't played NWN2 in so long, should find where I put my copy....

Hmm interesting. My advice would be to live in the dorms with as many random people as you can. It will give you a wide support base until you can find people you don't want to strangle =p.

^this

Do the dorms at least one year.  You will meet tons of people, some good, some annoying.  But it wil, give you a base of people to work with!

Be sure to enjoy a bit of school outside the classroom!  I did my undergrad in less than 4 years and my masters plus teaching credential in 13 months.  Despite that, I still had a reeeeally good time after class!

Enjoy college!  It will never come again and I am willing to bet a lot of us miss it!  (ummm, look at my gamer tag...)

*sigh* They don't have dorms for this college, college in New Zealand is very like college in the UK. You go, spend however many hours there, then you go home.

As for having fun after class that wouldn't be hard for me seeing as how my fun is, reading, gaming and watching DVD's. Anyways it's not really important for now I probably won't be going to do my course until October anyway.

(just got back home from college) *looks at post and nods* Yep, that's exactly like me~! 

I find it hard to believe you don't have any friends  (or many) and I do not believe you are stupid (unlike me), but I am amazed that you don't like parties....I rarely meet people who are like me in that respect

I hope you're feeling better today, at any rate.

Just out of the blue, I happen to have some Internet friends who live in the Netherlands; one of them's a window cleaner and the other's in university. I got to know them at a site called Darthipedia, which is a repository of Star Wars humor (WARNING: Most of it can be considered rude/crass). So yeah, I like the Dutch. :happy:

I've got like 10 friends total, and they're all from HS and earlier... I'm stupid at just about everything that isn't either Math or Ancient European/Mediveal History(or just History in general)... And would it surprise you all if I said that I've never been to a party, outside of those ones that you go to as a kid...

This might surprise you, but it's pretty well considered normal for any given person to have no more than one or two really close friends (aside from their spouse and/or family, of course). Most of the people we consider friends tend toward familiar acquaintances, such as fellow students that we see a lot or co-workers. Hell, I have more Internet friends than real-life ones, but I can hold forth in just about any social environment (except for church for obvious reasons).

And I can assure the both of you that, if your postings here are any indication, you are not stupid by anyone's measure.

Looked but couldn't find it.  Also disproving one or two cases as a misunderstanding does not change the pattern.  The article was more about the pattern than any specific case.  Many who have monitored this thread have seen people post about other threads being locked and not always for violations of forum rules.

Huh, sorry, it was a little further back than I thought. Posting the quote here with apologies for any pyramiding:

Hold the line!

We've had Rob in here, the story is not completely accurate.

Coming back in to back up double 07.

The banning was just an accident and a misunderstanding, I worked everything out with the mod team. 

I'm not sure about the patterns being reported in that article but if that's a valid point then that's fine, I guess just that that article should be considered alongside this disclaimer out of respect for Rob and whoever caused the accident.

What is the overall point of this thread? I mean not to be rude or anything I just don't understand why this particular thread has so many posts. *snip*

I wonder that sometimes. The reason it got so large in the first place was because when the slew of ending-related threads started appearing, they encouraged us to gather in one place. At this point people do use it to hang out, and we still do discuss the ending. There's just not much more to do at this point. I don't know if/how we could use this to get BioWare's attention. They do have their own thread for gathering feedback, and we don't know how exactly feedback is being taken on board right now.

OK I officially hate having insomnia... alright that's not a new thing, but when it gets to be more than a couple nights in a row... /sigh

So anyway, back and holding the line again

Welcome back, and sorry to hear about the insomnia.

I think the worst part of all this is that I have now become famous, something I never wanted to be. haha

I like being a nerd everyone can approach and relate to, not "Oh look, it's Rob! The guy who was banned for no RAISON!"

I would insert a witty quote from FONV : Old World Blues, most likely from either your brain, or from Dr. Mobious.... But for the life of me I can't think of one...

I'm not trying to rain on your parade but instead to help you avoid the mistakes of others.

Back in the old Tali thread (when they hit 10,000 pages. That's right, 10,000), moderators locked and ultimately banned the recreation of a Tali fan thread because the fans made a habit to use the thread as almost a chat thread. This pissed other fans off because it continued to kick other, more serious threads, off the first page.

The moderators specifically cited this as a major reason they would not allow fans to create a new thread. They don't like it.

And I would hate to see this thread die for the same reason. It's too important.

So please, try to keep the off topic and chat-like posts to a minimum. I know what this thread is to you all and I know how much it means as a source for friendly discourse.

I would suggest you move this sort of discussion to the group discussion of the Retake Mass Effect 3 group. You're allowed to do that sort of thing there.

100% agree. This thread should be for the ending, the side chat has a place in the group.

I thought the reason why they locked it down was because there was a lot of bashing against posters, as well as other characters and other things of that nature...

Wow 10 friends? that's amazing....I have 3 .
Oohh you're good at math? awesome...I am always amazed by people who are good at math since I am really really bad at it!, I am interested in History but I wouldn't say I am smart in anything really. You don't sound stupid to me at all 

As for never been to a party from my perspective you aren't missing anything lol. I didn't even like those parties you go to as a kid

I didn't know that about friends, though it does make some sense. I have one really close friend, in fact I consider her my family  I do have a few internet friends though. I tend to find cool people online more often than in real life haha.

Awww that's sweet of you to say, but I can assure you...I always seem a tad smarter online than I really am lol.
