..."Quasi-snobs?"
It's OK to say it that way, because you're only quasi-insulting people, right?

I don't think "AMERICANS" are being targeted by this post. It's just that we, being the superpower and world leader *ahem, I want to ****** off Europeans*, got the game first. In our exuberance, some of our countrymen are leaking info and it's hitting the eyes of our Euro counterparts.
This is a plea for restraint.
I understand. It's like the little kid who found out a juicy secret. He can't keep his mouth shut in spite of himself.
Actually Asia got it first. lol They got it yesterday. Officially today is US release.

"Character so-and-so dies when X happens." That is a spoiler.
"I think character so-and-so is hot!" This is not a spoiler.
"The game is buggy and the graphics are wonky." Also not a spoiler.
The fact that we shattered your precious illusion that the game was going to be some sort of divine gift to you... is not a spoiler.
I address two things, spoilers and the right for people to enjoy a spoiler-free thread.
What I also mentioned, perhaps it should have been in a reply, is that (and others agreed with me) it really sucks when you're so so excited for a game, as we all were (we were all in the same boat) and then it comes out in one place and not the other - then the thread gets overtaken by discussions about how bad this is, and that is, no balanced takes bar a few peoples posts.
There is just one forum that is spoiler-free and there are other forums for technical support, for story elements etc... I'm just putting it out there- why here? Why cut into our excitement?
I competely agree with you, decided i was going to try and stay away from BSN until i get my copy but i'm already avoiding youtube ME Wiki and google searches so why shouldn't i be able to come here and keep my excitement up without being spoiled. Would be a totally different story if the UK got the game first and posted everything we have been seeing.

If you take issue with the general discussions going on in the general discussion forum, why post here?

Dude the game is AMAZING, the only reason people are saying that stuff is because this is friggin' BSN! Check the reviews from major gaming publications or on metacritic! This community is garbage when it comes to non-biased, decent critique of games. Absolute trash.

Oh geez, I didn't know I was capable of forming my own opinion - look maybe I didn't put it across as well as I could have. I want to play ME3 untainted by what others are saying, I don't want spoilers and I want to enjoy the excitement I have been experiencing leading up to this launch.
I don't want those complaints people have put on a spoiler-free forum to be creeping into my thoughts when I play my copy on Friday, I'm quite OCD when it comes to it I guess. I want it to be a pure experience - my first reactions I want to be my own and not me thinking back to what I've come across, on here, when that stuff shouldn't have been posted in the first place.
spoilers do not belong here , and people should be considerate. That being said I do not know how you could expect to come to bsn and not hear other people's opinions. If the boards do not want any negative input they should post rules and moderate.
Spoilers are story line. people are more than within the rules to come here and state thier opinions on gameplay, graphics , sound , score etc....as long as its general and does not include story elements.
Didn't asia get unlocked first?, in fact anyone with a copy could have proxied hong kong and opened the game early, sccording to what i have read on other forums. people just love to ****** on americans, like they are all the same.
Yes but it's Americans posting spoilers. I'm not raging about it, I'm just pleading - to just keep it to a minimum. Also, as we discussed before - in Europe we're still hyped and excited and this negativity has done its damage, although its minute - it's certainly made me a little worried about the final product. I'm sure I'll be satisfied come friday - it just means that over the next few days, when I thought I could come here and still talk about Mass Effect and how excited I am, I now can't because threads that belong on other forums are flooding over into this one.
Did you ask ALL of them what nationality they are? No you assume they are all Americans. And you know what they say when you ASSUME, right?
When someone says Amazon.com posted their collectors edition etc when they say Gamestop did this and Gamestop did that, when they spell things with an American Dictionary spelling, yeah - I'll assume you're American.
Ahh assumption , the mother of all screwups.
I work for a huge multi national. we have a gamers club at our office. 80 percent of the 24 people in it are not americans. they bought thier games through amazon , and i am sure a few did through gamespot.
You see how easy it is to be wrong when you rag on people from another country. Why didnt you just say it generally and keep the politics out of it. That's all i'm saying...........

Spoilers should go into the spoiler section of the boards, that is why they are there. I don't want to read them yet, hence why i'm staying put in this section of the board. I'm not policing anyone, thus not asking you to stop expressing opinions. Just make sure they go into the correct sections of the boards.

Everyones argument against me is off topic? This isn't about Americans. I'm assuming that most of the people posting are American - but that's because they're typing in American-English, so show me some data that disproves me and I'll gladly accept it - I actually don't care. I didn't intend to insult Americans (I didn't know it would be so easy) I haven't written anything inflammetory - my complaints against people posting what they are, isn't because they are American - that's just context - it's because they ARE posting what they are posting. It's simply that. If I saw the majority of posts written in French, I'd say "Frenchies, stop it!"
I agree 100% and Bioware mods should lock/delete/move spolier theads in this section on BSN with a quickness.Jimez wrote...

Well I have looked everywhere including ******* and had no luck,but
hopefully I'll be able to sell the PS3 copy I bought from ******
unopened then pay the silly asking price for one on ebay for my xbox,but
it's ridiculous that these are so hard to get,it's like trying to find
water in a desert it's mad and is driving me mad,maybe God is trying to
tell me something or it isn't meant to be.
So in the above, what is the nationality of the author? I only took out the name of the store as it will give it away.

What ARE you talking about? You asked me what indicated posters as American. That got twisted into (somehow) me finding Gamespot as a spoiler, that is well and truly stupid. No, I'm not saying Americans are stupid. I'm saying this is getting stupid and off-topic.

You said you can tell what nationality people are by what they type. So go for it. If you can't, just say so and that you just tried to cause a flame thread in disguise.
