Nooo...however will I find new people to randomly party with? >:/

Besides, that just means those people will be quiet for two weeks. Then a random new player will say something about energy and bam, let's start it again.

I do kind of know why they're not imposing law on the topics right now, trying to allow free speech and whatnot, but they might just want to take a lock all energy topics stance for awhile instead. We DO have other topics to write about. But they're getting buried.

Change General Discussion to Energy Discussion.

Ban anybody that posts there.

Problem, solved.

i feel like the forum is just making things worse, and theres too much fighting going on (which was fun for me to start crap in at first, but now its just exhausting). im sure two weeks isn't long enough, but I need a break from all the energy threads, and I'm sure others feel the same way. i like the normal stuff thats posted on the forums (or used to be), but those posts are (to paraphase the /b phrase) "the cancer that is killing spiral knights"..

The vast majority of players don't even visit the forums.

Eventually people will be sick of just saying crap about energy left and right. It's how all early controversies in MMO's work.

I sure hope so, but looking at some of these threads... certain users are really capable of hammering the exact same points home in every single post using the most offensive language possible. I'm not sure it's possible to tire them out when they seem to do nothing but sit at their computer and rant. War of attrition is always a tenuous tactic.

New players don't need to visit the forums to be turned off from the game. There is a cancer killing Spiral Knights and it's not the energy threads on the forum.

But, alas, I know that when it comes to making changes to a system which directly affects a companies income (even if this change would be beneficial in the long run), companies will just ignore it until the proverbial #$%^ hits the fan but by then it's most likely too late.

well good luck to ya mate, they'll probably go easy on ya

Stardrinker, by "walking in randomly" I mean "posting something off-topic"; basically, gate-crashing a thread.

I don't really think I went off-topic at all, especially since this was pretty much a joke thread.

But you know, I'm a mite, really; what do you or anyone else care about what I think of a post of yours? I find it quite strange that you felt you had to respond. Then again, I'm responding, and I really should stop.

You really should work on that self-esteem of yours. Actually, it's quite strange that someone would come out onto an open forum and belittle themselves. Unless, of course, that person was just seeking attention, but I'm sure you're not that kind of person.

*finishes cupcakes*

I would like to take this time to apologize to YOU guys the ones who got my rage from Anis.

I realize that her and I really got into it but I apologize to you guys because you had to see it, I also apologize for my rash language and overall piss poor attitude.

I really do believe there is a problem with things currently how they are however, that was no reason for me to behave.

I mean I am like that, rough around the edges and stubborn, but yah I went way over the line.

*wonders how many strikes he has now..*

I enjoy the game to a certain extent but I fear for the longevity of it with the current broken economy and lack of deep content.

Oh FYI I"m very touchy about my condition so you succeeded.

djbiznatch - a forum wipe would be better! Seriously, the amount of narrowminds, like the one below... is really causing an issue. I don't even see any decent threads now. They're all tainted and ruined! Implode the forums! The big red button~ Selfdestruct? Anything works.

zazabar - When you stop letting your money do your talking, only then would you be worth listening to. Is it really annoying for people to give the staff feedback or even complain? User complaints can change a game. Proof? It changed Mabinogi. A 'free' game that was given 'classes' and restricted everything, reverted to boosts instead of restrictions. We're the players, if they really didn't want us to say anything, then why do we have a suggestions forum? Or even "General" Discussion? So you're saying we should just play the game and say nothing? You know nothing of developers, do you? They're people, too. Guess you don't understand the same people you're trying to bring up, huh?

And, 75 cents isn't exactly recouping the cost for this game. Yet, many people can't even get that. And simply a bit harder? The prices slowly approach 5k, and 2 days of play may not even be enough to make that up for a new player. It's the inevitable truth. For new players, it's going to become unplayable. And, CE isn't the only way they can make money.

GodofSkype1 - the longevity of this game, huh... at this rate, it'd probably last a year, 3 years tops. Maybe it's a bit ominous that SEGA is part of it, since SEGA killed off PSO/PSU. Granted, those were P2P, but still.
@NegimaSonic - we do have other threads, but they either get ignored or caught in the crossfire. Besides, even if new players did, that's a good thing. Here's a different way to look at it - we're getting input from new players.

It's hard to be part of a community when it's not really a community. Couldn't even bother to post anything because there'd be another troll or two, or some spoiled brat going on about how they have money to blow on energy, and that "if no one else can get it, too bad".

@Gator
but in two weeks, those same spoiled brats and/or trolls will still be there for the second a new player says anything, so they can offer their tired advice in favor or against energy. Some who may have even been using that time to "perfect" their arguments. I like the suggestion from another thread, merge everything into one topic, delete/lock any further discussions. Keep the free speech while keeping it in one spot.

Also curse you for bringing me back into this topic and it having nothing to do with cupcakes...the cake is supposed to be a lie...not the cupcake >:/

Please do, and post pics on general discussion. I think we SERIOUSLY need some random happy threads now. About anything.
