The State of Games

grrarg: Feb 14, 2011; Don't lose your head over it.

Drama in a MMO? I am shocked and appalled.

Someone link the source thread please since any MMO could have caused that meltdown, and my first three guesses were wrong.

Edit: Context for top of page.

This might might earn me a ban or probation but gently caress it.

gently caress all of you, there's petty, and then there's this poo poo, you are all children, my own fault for associating with you pieces of poo poo.

Since you seem to be sweet on me central, gently caress you, I have no idea what your deal is with me.

As for the avatar buyer, congrats, you won, this is what you wanted right? Make me rage in the forums? Well here you go, enjoy your prize you worthless piece of poo poo, even then I don't wish horrible things on you, just pity that's you would take this far, and for what? Because I find creepy images, creepy? Because I can point flaws in the game you all love so much? Because I think your stupid jokes are old and tired? For that? Really?

And you know what its not even about the avatar, I'm always trying to find a spot to fit in, I thought I found that here, silly me, its for reminding me of what I don't have anymore, about how the one person who truly made me feel like I belonged is loving dead, that's what's this all bullshit reminds me off, I wish it was as simple as a stupid avatar, you wouldn't be the first, but probably the last.

I'll be 30 in a month and its like I never left highschool whenever I use the net, but mostly when I get involved with goons, exceptions of course, Kazoo, Ashley, Goshawk, all wonderful people, a few I didn't mention.

So gently caress it, congrats, really congrats, you pushed me over the edge. Enjoy friends, quote and laugh, enjoy my ban.

And no worries, I have 0 intention of escalating this in any capacity, this and what I said guild chat are the long and short of it.

Hope you all have a swell day, I truly do.

He's a mod, so there was never a question of sanity in the first place.

I appreciate the kind words about the Twitch news thread but I just want to point something out - posts like this still happen:

Blister posted:

That'd be nice, every so often something like Twitch's policy change happens that is game related but not a game and there really isn't a good place to talk about it unless you can find the right giant megathread talking about it at the moment

And it's not Blister's fault, don't get me wrong, but what I saw happen with the Twitch thread was that it got three pages of discussion, but like five or so pages each were dedicated to the news in megathreads for games that are actually affected by the changes. Because there are like, five major huge games affected by these, the Twitch thread was pretty immediately buried off of the first page, and we all know nobody reads page 2. At the same time, though, I don't want a forums police being like "[x] IS NOT APPROPRIATE FOR THIS MEGATHREAD AS [y] THREAD ALREADY EXISTS, DISCUSS IN THERE."

It's a problem I don't really know a solution to.

Robin Williams turned his back on gaming when he ceded his responsibility to voice Genie in Kingdom Hearts to Homer Simpson. He shall not be mourned by this forum.

gently caress him, if he had been voicing Genie then this might've meant we wouldn't have to go to Agrabah again in Kingdom Hearts III.

jk I loving love Aladdin. If only the character models for Genie and Iago weren't so dead eyed and terrifying.
