As almost everyone on this forum is aware, today some very bad things happen. An ignorant person did some very ignorant things that hurt, and yes I mean hurt, a lot of us. We've all been victimized, not only the community, but also the good people who spent *months* of their lives working to bring us this game. But what's done is done, and it can't be undone. I know a lot of you are angry, hell I am furious. So where do we go from here?

First things first Mass Effect 2 is still going to be a fantastic game. Fantastic is an understatement. Mass Effect 2 is going to be one of if not the best RPG's ever made. Regardless of what was spoiled for people today, nothing can change that fact. So don't give the ignorant bastard who decided to take time out of his pitty life to make others unhappy the statisfaction of not enjoying Mass Effect 2.
 
Secondly, as much as I love the wonderful people at Bioware I think we deserve some kind of apology for this. What went on went on for far too long, and got way out of hand before something was done about it. When we come to this social site we expect it to be a safe, nonthreatening enviroment for people to inteligently discuss the games Bioware makes. It is BIowares responsibility to keep it so. I don't know about anyone else, but I didn't feel like this was a safe enviorment today. So, while I acknowledge that Bioware is as much a victim in this as everyone else, I still would appreciate some form of apology.

Finally, I saw something in a few threads about doing acual harm to the person responsible for todays attack. Not cool. As much as I hate the ****** it is never acceptable to do or even talk about some of the things I've seen people talking about. Spam his myspace, delete his Facebook, ruin his Amazon book sales for christ sake, but end it there. We are all mature people here (OK...mostly mature *fart noise* ) so lets act like it.

Thats all I have to say. Have a great day.

True, they gave no proof what-so ever.  guess we will just have to wait and see.

As much as I would like to believe that, you're wrong.  At least some of the spoilers are true,  particularly the one about the collectors.  Don't worry, I won't repeat any of them for those who managed to stay away but the person who did spoil the game proved they were legitimate spoilers because he proved he has a copy of the game.

[danbarrett]

Agree with OP. Addicted to these forums, so its impossible lately to avoid these spoilers!

[SkywardDescent]

I just left the forums for a bit, been coming on a lot less since people got their hands on it.



Yes I saw some of the posts, the second I did, I stopped reading and shut off my browser. Got through unspoiled. Besides, I heard the alleged spoilers were fake.

[iLoveDragons]

You made my day Sir. Come in for a hug...

Seriously though. Regardless, it was a very rude and uncool thing that happened.

Edit: Also, I would like to thank Chirstina and anyone else at Bioware who helped to clean the mess up. I don't think I did that in my original post.

woah.... deja vu.

[Willowhugger]

Some, not all.



Let's not confirm what is true and not.

[Borschtbeet]

I second what the Original Poster said.



Bioware owes us an apology for what happened. This website was flooded with spoilers for hours before any response was taken.

[TudorWolf]

I seriously hope those spoilers weren't true. I seriously don't want the ending spoiled in any way...



And I have to agree about the way were reacting to the guys behind it all. That was a bit overboard.

[Gorn Kregore]

Successfully trolled I assume.

[javierabegazo]

I don't think Bioware needs to apologize to anyone for this. I'm totally down with people worrying about spoilers, but if you're insistent on getting a 1st time glimpse of ME2 when you play it, you should stay away from the game's forums no matter what.

PM me, what spoiler you are on about because I hope the one I read was a lie. But its a good twist that I fear true.


Oh and no apology is needed, you new the risk, the spoilers would happen if the devs were online, want it to be unspoiled leave.

Yeah, let's not confirm, and keep it at that, I agree. BioWare and the mods who helped deserve a HUGE pat on the back and a Thank you letter, really.

Wait....wasnt it you that made another thread saying that none of them are true?

They go through the Omega-4 relay.



That's true.

I've recieved a lot of PMs asking about what I said.  Suffice to say, don't worry guys.

[Aradace]

Aye, some of the things were indeed true unfortunately. Not all though. I already had an inkling about the "major" one anyway so it really wasnt a spoiler for me so much as it was confirming what I felt in my gut anyway lol.

[Krytheos]

Captain Obvious strikes again! xP But seriously. Spoilers should be kept down to like..nill, imo.

[Sledgehammer44mm]

So what you all seem to be implying is that the spoiler is true?

I thought there were different endings and if you wanted to save all your friends that are squad mates you could?

[iLoveDragons]

Again, Chirstina and the Mods did a great job cleaning up, and I thank them for that. What upsets me is that it took so long for the clean up to happen. There were plenty of warning signs that those people were posting things they shouldn't be.

Actually, I said very much a lot was untrue.

Really, people should just let it die.

GJ ****ing retard, don't say what is or isn't, people who haven't played DONT WANT TO KNOW!

As grateful as I am for the moderator coming in and putting a stop to this, I am extremely disappointed that it went on as long as it did.

We've waited so long for this game to come out and this happens the weekend before release. Not only is it a good possibility that a major plotline has been spoiled, it was spammed in such a way that there was no way to avoid seeing it.

If someone had been on duty when this happened, then this could have been prevented and stamped out immediately. Instead it was allowed to continue unabated for an unacceptable period of time.

I would say that the moderators have really let down some of Bioware's biggest fans with this fiasco.

I not only think we should be given an apology, but that heads should roll.
