I've used all the things they said they're removing but I won't lose sleep if they're gone, no. But even for those who would, all the cries that they just need to "come clean" I really think are a little crass and premature at best. I don't know the full extent of the changes yet but it must be because bioware is cheap, lazy and/or hate certain sectors of the site, is what it says. You really don't have the grounds to make that claim IMO.

Notice you don't have any Projects on your account.

Excuse me, I did not say any of the things you just wrote here. I never said any of them. O_o

It's more one thing that implies the others, but they've all been said here, more or less. And if you weren't making any of those assumptions, I guess...

This comment doesn't really effect you.

I've downloaded a few, haha. It seemed a bit redundant with the nexus site. I suppose if you have 400 of them it would be upsetting, granted. That is an investment. Being more personally affected doesn't give anyone special insight into the reason bioware did this, however... especially when we don't even know what 'this' is really.

We've been suspecting changes to the BSN were in the pipeline for a long time now, as I recall.

You know what this reminds me of? That robot in Fallout 3 that amputated the leg of that woman who broke her toe.

As stated several times in this thread...Nexus doesn't support Mass Effect mods.

Played this the other day.

Andy amputated Beatrice's leg and she bled to death; it's already happened by the time the PC arrives.

Can we use "it's just the minority" complaining on BSN (lololol ironic lololol), or is it too soon?

"It's not even like traditional game forums, where you can say how many polls there are, or whether you got project A, B or C..." Image IPB

Kidding aside, I would like to hear more about these new features after the fallout.

The year after, you can't post unless you have nice things to say about BW/EA or their products. The year after, it's five cents per post.

70,000 is a good sample size in fact so you're wrong. 

FFS. No.

A poll without a random sample is statistically useless if you want to generalise to the larger population.

The sample size is *irrelevant*.

Please, please read these before you say anything else about polling.

It is though, this thread has been open for a day and it only has 21 pages. If a thread about gender politics or playersexuality stayed open that long it would have at least 60 pages.

Of course. When EAware says they are dedicated to the things that make the BSN a great place w/ lots of intelligent discussion and whatnot, they're talking about the bolded sentence.

The fact that it's a good sample gives it alot of weight. 

Yes, I agree, it has weight.  Being the statistician/scientist that I am, but I'm not convinced that the method is entirely sound.  Random polls in places like gaming sites (and websites in general) are notoriously unreliable.  But it seems across gaming sites the results are similar in regard to the ending, that can't be discounted as part of a general consensus.

edit: just wanted to add there are several kinds of bias these sorts of polls can have, but I won't bore you!


If you're a statistician or a scientist then the first thing you should be doing is dismissing nonrepresentative, non random sampling with these sorts of questions as completely junk.

Self-selection bias? Errors in the question wording? None of that rings alarm bells?
