Hahahaha, what if I had something to say to black people and not anyone else? 



You'd pick option A). Black People would still listen,white people wouldn't care, and you wouldn't rile anybody up. Hence, "Diplomacy".


The title conveys exactly what I mean - the page I posted within the topic gives the reader context, thus - if any of the people trying to coax something out of me bothered to read anything I had said and what others had said and agreed on, then this wouldnt have become about something entirely different. So far not one person has identified where anyone has bashed Americans. As for the title, it implies that Americans have the game, that they are posting what I have described...well, its the truth. 

Someone show me evidence that contradicts me...really.

By the Union Jack... if you don't understand that YOU COULD HAVE HANDLED IT BETTER, I give up.


Yes I could, I accept that. I also am so surprised that *this* gets so much aggression and spoilers don't. 


Because the spoilers is not what people disagreed with you on. Part of it is BW's fault for locking the spoiler area to registered users while we all wait to get it. Some are waiting for the 9th, some (like me) waiting on that damned UPS truck taking all day to get here lol, some waiting to get off work but passing the time on BSN instead of working, some didn't do overnight shipping, etc. So some people post it here in the non-spoiler area. I don't agree with them doing it but that's why they do it because they can't post in the proper place.

They should have let the spoiler area stay open to all to post until the 9th I say. That being the latest official release date on the planet.

Ignore the haters on here. I'm about 6 hours in and having a blast. It was worth the wait. A few complaints but nothing that changes my opinion of the game significantly.

@TheDeadYoshi

Wow, sucks to be you mate. Sorry to see your valid point attracted forum pond life.


I've indulged and humoured their arguments because I really don't like to offend anyone yet, it seems as though they take offense before I've even opened my virtual mouth - for instance the post above yours. What IS that boy talking about? The fact the game is out in America, the fact Americans use the spelling "mom" which is American-English and is used no where else to my knowledge - indicates pretty strongly that a post like that is by an American user, but people on here are so set on trying to coax some kind of admition out of me that I'm a hater. This post is about the individuals posting what they are, not the fact they're American - grow a ticker skin guys. No one really cares if you're American, Asari or a talking arse (or whether you're talking out your arse) 


Game was out in Asia yesterday. US today. And that quote you said, I know a Japanese girl that types the same way that lived her entire life in Japan. That's teenage text-type speak. It's in more than one country.

And you avoided that because you know you can't identify the person who typed that paragraph.

You're just butt hurt that it's being released in EU in 3 more days. Don't get mad about that and lash out at people. Is everyone in your country that immature?


Cant believe I'm still going on about this...look, I think you've been trying to get to me since page 2. Why not write exactly how I've bashed Americans and make me realise what I've done is wrong, I think you'll find I haven't said anything against any Americans - thats why the topic then turned to how I can tell the posters are American. C'mon...no really, c'mon...

Asia and Japan, you've mentioned, so we all think that all these posts are actually not Americans despite them all speaking American-English, they are in fact equal Americans and Japanese etc etc who speak one language, and use American spellings 


I showed you a post that looked American-English and yet the poster identified himself as an Aussie a few posts after it. Why? because people told him to get the US version of it but he said where he was from and it wouldn't work on his Xbox.

We have been telling you it wasn't only Americans but you have stood up all thread long trying to say it was even when pointing out other countries had it almost a day longer (officially).

So you refuse to acknowledge any other nationality could be involved and jump straight to your assumptions which you even admitted you assume but won't even think for a second your assumption was wrong in the slightest.


Ok, I *have* been saying for quite a few pages that there is nothing to be offended about when clearly some individuals are, but I did actually apologise for that - what I, and a few others identified, was that the real topic was going over some peoples heads - others were joining in not reading what has been discussed and presumed I was hating etc... Posters like you, I'm afraid to say (this has been your only fair argument so far) have just been trying to prod me into saying something that would be out of character for me.

Sure I could word things a little differently (like my title) but look, a newspaper has a heading that grabs attention, then an article that follows, my title conveys what I was going to express in length, I then did. 

I could have included every other person that has a copy of the game, yes you are absolutely right. But the people who are in Japan and speak American English and post spoilers, the Australian that imported an American copy and then posted a spoiler - they are the minority. I am talking about the majority because they are the bigger issue. Canadians, well, I overlooked. I didn't actually care who I was addressing - I cared about the issue I was addressing. If I could go back and rename this thread, it would be "Anyone in the world who has the game before us and is posting spoilers or posting topics not relevant to this forum, stop it!" 

Ok, can we be done with this now? Because it has been off-topic since page 3

houldendub - Are you completely unable to read? No-one said opinions were not allowed, either you cannot be bothered to read, or your too stupid to comprehend.

What was asked for was NO OPINIONS, not good ones, not bad ones. It is Totally unfair that we europeans have to wait 3days for absolutely no reason whatsoever.

So YES all your comments are classed as spoilers, It is up to us to decide how the game is. The point remains that people are posting Spoilers in a section designed and labelled for NON spoiler comments.

And your complaints about the game belong in technical support. Obviously just another child who can't get mommy's pc to work.

Thank you for the reassurance, I know I will enjoy the game, it's just a bit sad when you get so excited (along with the rest of the world) for a game and then you get it later than some and it gets slated on the only forum thats dedicated to the said game (which you can access)

I know I will enjoy it, because its Mass Effect and I want to know what happens. I just don't want to anticipate problems or remember spoilers. I want as fresh an experience as you guys are getting - because we're entitled to that too. We waited just as long :D

Jokes and lack of tact aside, the OP is correct, even if he displayed the subtlety of a nuclear blast. While the mods locking the other forums contributes greatly to this spoiler mess, people should try to keep a lid on things.

And to whomever requested clarification over Canada: Mentioning every State by name would take too much time.

Although if one of you can confirm you can kick Chobot off the Normandy (which I read somewhere on here) then I wouldn't complain about that, as I'm sure my fellow brits also wouldn't mind / any fan in their right mind.

Yep. You can choose to ignore her. Then she won't appear on the Normandy at all and you'll only hear one line from her the whole game.

One line is enough. I can't believe she's even on the Normandy while certain other characters aren't (I'm presuming) She should go back to licking PSPs

A fair comment, I will admit - my pure frustration due to spoilers and the abundance of threads on topics Id rather were put somewhere they belong, lead to my lack of tact on this occasion. :innocent:

I get it dude.

I was so tempted to watch Gametrailers ME3 review and then I thought...no, I might see something. So then I decided to listen to it. I got a few seconds in and Joker started to say something and I had to give up. Might have accidentally heard a joke or something and it would be less funny on my playthough.

Not strictly on topic but relevant. I don't want to hear anything about anything and it's often a minefield in this section and it shouldn't be.

I want Chakwas in a boob-tube not Chobot - that truly would be entertaining.

That's just it - to some, that wouldnt count as a spoiler, but I dont want to experience ANYTHING until the controller is in my hand. Some will say, so dont come here - but I was fooled by "Non-spoiler discussion" The amount of threads Ive seen now with spoilerish-titles...I certainly won't be coming back here after this post dies down
