    Trenches stories are somewhat amusing, of late a lot seem to be "LOL my job in QA sucks!". http://trenchescomic.com/tales/post/one-of-those-people this one is funny, probably because I doubt it actually happened.

    They'd just make another thread, why waste the effort.
  5. Malcador
    Why was this worthy of a thread again ?
  6. Malcador
    What's the law's definition of a troll ?
  7. Malcador
    Surely there's more benefit than that, a dignified figurehead isn't all that much to crow about
  8. Malcador
    Did he ever say "Look at the non-rich person!" and then cackle in a upper-class manner ?
  9. Malcador
    Tch, that sucks.
  10. Malcador
    Not bad, oby, not bad.

    Got into work as so far reading - http://chrishernandezauthor.com/2013/07/09/working-with-the-french-army/ - has been the only interesting thing.

    It is, really, they can jaw as long as they want and if you ignore them they get no rise, no hurt feelings in you and if you do it right you can just cease to see them as people. It's more fun to hit back and hard, though (guy teases you for a while, retort by making a joke about his recently dead father, for example ).

    I've gotten nicer as I've aged, sadly.

    Problem with a lot of the schemes to prevent nastiness is they are open to abuse, as the investigations aren't exactly such. So you can get griefed that way. Heh, one good thing about user owned dedicated servers - admins around to boot griefers or harassers.

    Cool story, bro. I agree that this is an issue. I'd like to see software/hardware developers take better steps to improving this in a proactive way. Mangling your post a bit, but I agree with that assessment of twitter. People can just drive by flame you, forums you tend to get more stuck in. May be the nature of the format and how that one liner looks on your screen rather than the twitter space For abuse in MP games, well other than providing mute functionality, what more could they do ? Speech recognition to check for bad words and auto-ban you ? Not a super fan of enforced politeness, even if you are forced to deal with mean people.

    Hah, seriously ? Well for a forum, you can write more, is easy to moderate and I imagine it's not as naggy as Twitter can be for developers (though I assume this is notifying them on a phone in this case). Probably reduced contact as well, many people have Twitter accounts but not many will bother registering with a forum to blather out some abuse to a developer. Essentially is easier to be detached from the consumer.

    Hm, her response was also kind of unimpressive, but can't think of anything better to strike back with. I still think developers shouldn't waste their time on social media like twitter or something similar to interact with their customers. Forums are good enough for that, no ?
  18. Malcador
    Certainly could have been more cutting. "Whatever, ****ing moron" is pretty weak.
  19. Malcador
    Well for one who knows what was said to upset him so, could be 'die in a fire for nerfing my gun you moron!' or 'I am going to kill you for this!'. First one, in an online context, is shrug worthy to me, the latter has more room to warrant further action. That's a pretty funny story though, Amentep. Good revenge on him
  20. Malcador
    For the target, equal abuse back, I'd say.
  21. Malcador
    Need some one that's pro-abusive comments, else this thread is going to get mighty boring.

    PC Gamer fell short with 'too horrible to quote' to be honest, I'd like to see what nasty things people wrote to him to judge. I suppose insults stating one should DIAF or something like that shouldn't probably be made, so that is on the fans to be a little less vitriolic. If it's just them stating the developers are clueless or stupid or so on, the developers should just harden up. Forums self policing, well, heh, you can end up with a groupthink that way pretty easily.
  23. Malcador
    In NA, certainly. Elsewhere, maybe not so much.

    At this point, every answer to why it shouldn't be in or should be in has already been stated. I'm sure some Obsidian staffer reads this for a decent laugh.

    Bah, that's not fun. Aim to get involved in a scandal where you secretly fund and supply some Third World guerillas.
