I post twice now on accident. I just had twins in June, maybe it's a thing now.

I wasn't talking about you. I wouldn't believe Priestly if he said the sun is hot.

Also, LOL @ all the people overjoyed at seeing him back to make a post right before he started mocking the closure on twatter.

Wow, go away for a few hours and had to read through twenty pages. Some good heartfelt messages, some good jokes, some anger and recrimination. Just like old times.

I've never understood how third party sites are easier to control than your own. If that really is the case then perhaps you need to build a better forum, using some of the ideas that those other sites employ.

Personally I don't believe that Bioware saw this as a difficult decision. It's been clear for a long time now that they had no interest in the place, with only Jesse Reid making effort to communicate with people on here.

Which is the perfect example. Speak to people with politeness and respect and 99% of the time you'll have the same returned to you, even if they don't like the answer that they've been given. It's a shame that a handful of people have tarnished the reputation of this place to such a degree that Reddit of all places doesn't want new members from here.

I just don't see how Bioware hope to foster community by scattering it to the wind.

Let's say Cassandra's lying about her history. Why should we care about that?

 

I have avoided addressing this broader topic for a wide variety of reasons, most of which involve my friends being banned for legitimately questioning the motives of someone's whose various outlier characteristics exist solely as sources of their own aggrandizement.

 

But the more important question would be: Why would you start the process of establishing a rational alternative to BSN by handing leadership over to someone whose narcissism is well known to result in vindictive behaviour towards those who fail to directly endorse or support the narcissist?

 

I feel weird at this particular juncture of history that it is necessary to point out the failings in said approach.

That is ****** retarded. Guess I'll need to save Josephine with a mustache pictures and go dig up the Wrex and Shepard tea party thread where Tali had Legion as a pet dog

It was all epic. They need to create a series where All Might and Escanor teams up to fight crime.

 

The Son God and Symbol of Peace together?

 

One could not imagine the magnanimity of such a marvellous,meeting of mighty manly heroes!

 

It would blind us with its glory.

Felicia tweeted about getting a free dessert from a manager at a restaurant she was eating at. Chris tweeted back that she might have gotten more than a dessert if she had not been wearing a shirt. 

 

His tweet got slammed as being sexist - which he admitted to and apologized for - soon after he was no longer employed by BW and went on to CDPR where he made the infamous Gamergate/KKK comparison.

 CP said the head honchos for ME3 and DA2 wanted the BSN taken down (as such) after the DA2 and ME3 backlash, but were convinced to keep it up. 

 

Now, there has been ranting going on against BioWare devs on twitter and here as well because of the teeny tiny bit of info revealed about MEA doesn't suit them. See the devs have to be forced to make a game that suits only these types... 

 

https://twitter.com/...711281076310016

 

 

BTW^ that's one of the bsn'ers saying this...the jawline dude. He also went off on a black tweeter, defending the so-called Mexican femRyder, about white supremacy. He also has gone on rants on BSN about sjw, then suddenly about lesbians are lesbians because they were sexually abused as children, stated that gay men were pedos, and BioWare doesn't care about its core fanbase and people who want to raise families...uh???

 

This is a preemptive strike against their harshest critics before MEA material is dropped, probably around late-September the first bits. I mean it was just going to get worse anyway. But now we all suffer.

 

I remember, not but 2-3 months ago, the forum lit up blue with multiple mods after a certain poster threatened BioWare if quarians (females to be specific) weren't in the game. 

 

 

Yeeaaah, but he's crazy. I mean like legit crazy. I've seen him tweet, and on occasion post here.

 

BSN has it's share of grouse and cynicism, but this guy is not really..representative of the usual grouse, cynicism and agenda pushing that goes on from all corners. And I daresay that all of that, too, is more indicative of issues with which the larger society is wrestling.

 

The best preemptive strike against harsh critics is to make a bomb azz game; that's how you shut them down, by delivering the goods. There will still be critics, and harsh ones at that, regardless of what you do. That's just life.

 

Also understanding that it's a fairly large fandom, not the biggest, but a good amount of fans. There are necessarily going to be some unstable people that are a part of it. This is precisely when you start looking for mods to get rid of the real crazy ones, not just the usual suspects.

 

It saddens me to learn that some "big wigs" over at BW/EA wanted to shut down the site after DA2 and ME3 backlash. It saddens me because both games had some fundamental issues. They had a charm, but there were problems. However, this makes it feel like to them it's just the fans are being jerks.

There's no point in the community moving into a forum with a high chance of turning into a huge mess.
It's going to be complicated enough for people to move , avoiding drama is the best way to keep things going somewhat smoothly.


Perhaps. So the problem is that a bunch of idiots are going to freak out about Cassandra's bio and make drama?

This makes more sense. So the bio's irrelevant; it's other behaviors.

IKR? Last I'd heard, he was just forced to apologize. I was really unhappy with CDPR. Looks like it turns out he was apologizing on his own in a failed effort not to get fired.

As an outsider who has no idea who any of these people are, I have no idea how you took that away from that post.
