I have literally no other place on the internet to discuss Bioware games. Every other social media platform is absolutely useless for open in-depth discussions. Out of my IRL gamer friends, only one of them really cares about Bioware lore, and we usually have the same exact opinions/train of thought, and therefore discussions do not get more interesting or insightful than the ones I have here. It's a sad day for Bioware fans.
Well, when people are continuing to paint this place as a terrible location that needs to die, it doesn't help matters.

as much as i dislike a lot of the rampant trolls in these parts, i'm gonna miss a lot of genuine and respectable people on here (despite not talking to them much, just thinking they're really cool.) so i think it's a....

^I do not have anything nice to say in regards to him saying that, so I won't say anything at all.
I appreciate those that came here looking to grieve with us and understand our frustrations and hopes for a reversal in this decision.
I do not appreciate people with poor histories continuing to add to their poor history.
Oh, now that's just...crap. Utter tripe. What a crappy, stupid tweet to make.

Hearing Gaider say that really puts things in perspective. I wonder what the other staff members are thinking about the shutdown? Probably celebrating.

As of that tweet David Gaider is now Anita Sarkeesian-tier for me. Even though I already knew he felt that way considering the sole existence for his tumblr was to talk to people who wouldn't ever come here.

I'd hope not. I have pleasant memories of being aided on this forum by Sheryl Chee, Mary Kirby, Fernando Melo, and others.

I'm pretty sure they even bothered to suspend a few names to make their point too.
Lol, someone feels insecure.

That's funny, because didn't tumblr chase him away after painting him as a problematic white devil?

We're the outcast nerds of nerd-dom. Even the cosplayers are too cool for us.Yeah well thanks to that I'm at the head of that nasty place where the worst of Bioware's fans go to talk endlessly about this or that nonsense that rational people don't care about.
Or so the story goes across the internet.
Its probably why you never see forum posters from here invited to sit and speak at conventions or whatever with the cosplayers and such.

He ran away from tumblr because the SJWs did what SJWs do and attack people for literally anything. Which is why you're NEVER supposed to give SJWs what they want.
Open minded design decisions in gaming are great. But catering to the SJW mindset is not. There's a difference. He learned that the hard way, if he learned anything from that experience at all.

Rude
Quite. Responses and statements like that are what keep us here and keep us away from other places. Because other places don't want us as a result of statements like that.
But what can we do? Bioware's throwing us out and expecting us to live with the wolves. Wolves who are starving.

"They were loyal. Now they're starving."
Oh god. Is Bioware our Ramsay Stark Bolton?

Ramsay Bolton you mean. But no. If anything, Bioware's portrayed as Sansa Stark and we're portrayed as Ramsay Bolton, our dogs being Twitter, Facebook, Youtube, Reddit, Tumblr, and the rest of the web.
We're guaranteed to get our faces eaten off, all because of the narrative spun by tweets like that and the media.
We'll forever be seen as the toxic location that needs to die. And for what? Having an opinion that a couple of games were subpar. Wonderful.

*Smacks face* I was thinking of Sansa while I was writing Ramsay and my brain conflated the two. I swear I'm not an idiot

The short answer is yes (with work), but none of the member info or threads would be there. You would have to transfer this forum's database into the new forum.
But of course if BioWare were willing to transfer the info in the first place then I suppose it would be easier to just change the domain name and hand the keys over to whoever agreed to pay Invision Power Services for the software and use of the servers. I assume BioWare is paying them to host the forums based on my investigations. If so, then it would be a simple question of who is paying the bill, and a name change for the domain.

Yeah the worst is it wasn't just happening on the BSN.Even Neogaf had a main DA2 troll thread where everyone said it was crappy http://www.neogaf.co...ad.php?t=422971
Everyone on the internet was also mocking ME3 ending.
There were some altercation between fans and Bioware employee on Twitter , D. Gaider got chased away from Tumblr.
But somehow the BSN is that toxic cesspool where people are strangely negative about Bioware.Sure , like an isolated island.
Second widespread mockery about BSN is the fans are degenerate with their weird fetish about romance...Bioware ..."Ride the Bull"?
It wasn't the fan that did this.

And we're expected to go to these places. The logic is nonsensical
