Purkake Posted August 22, 2009 Author Share Posted August 22, 2009 I was trying to get MY thread back on topic by making you stop whining about the Bioware boards. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gromnir Posted August 22, 2009 Share Posted August 22, 2009 Because preemptive action is the best kind! What's with all the hate? If you don't like the Bio boards don't go there. actually, preemptive IS best. once it becomes norm that every 10th thread is a romance thread... and that every romance thread necessarily needs become a gay-romance thread, it is too late to stop. you can imagine "hate" all you want. hate is a nice charged word, ain't it? am disappointed when we see peoples use it so easily. mildly annoyed? yeah. btw, Gromnir Doesn't go to bio boards no more... and one reason is the ubiquitous romance threads. HA! Good Fun!

Bos_hybrid Posted August 22, 2009 Share Posted August 22, 2009 (edited) I was bitching about your bitching to make it stop. Bitching is bitching. Hell I would of only had that one post if you stopped adding things. The last reply was for Gromnir, not you. Well I assumed it was also directed at me. Assumption wrong. btw, Gromnir Doesn't go to bio boards no more... and one reason is the ubiquitous romance threads. The other being you were banned?

Purkake Posted August 22, 2009 Author Share Posted August 22, 2009 (edited) So can you all put your "mild annoyance" at romances and Bioware boards aside and get back to the subject at hand eg. ME2? @Gromnir: If there will ever be a romance thread here, you can complain there. This is the somewhat official ME2 thread.

Gromnir Posted August 22, 2009 Share Posted August 22, 2009 (edited) I was bitching about your bitching to make it stop. sweet irony. shoulda' just stayed quiet then, 'cause Gromnir were onto other subjects... like tinker bell n' such. were your "bitching" that brought Gromnir back into the mix. congrats. "@Gromnir: If there will ever be a romance thread here, you can complain there. This is the somewhat official ME2 thread. " eh? perhaps you should review thread. the me2 thread seemed to get focused on M&M romance... which is what prompted our reply. in any event, your clumsy moderating attempts has sorta backfired... which should serve as some kinda lesson.

I've been trying to forget about her, thank you. She is the worst designed character in Mass Effect. Stupid looking suit and hat, bad (also predictable) writing and terrible voice acting. Every other character I liked or didn't mind, but she just gets on my nerves whenever she's on screen. I've actually started not bringing Liara along for Noveria only so I don't have to listen to any additional lines from her. HAAAAAATE. "Alright, I've been thinking.

Wrath of Dagon Posted August 22, 2009 Share Posted August 22, 2009 I guess now is a good time to mention again that Bioware romances are completely optional. The start of this discussion was that many on the bio boards thought they weren't optional but essential. If you saying there is an anti-gay sentiment here, I pretty sure your wrong. That's quite a leap you made there. "Moral indignation is a standard strategy for endowing the idiot with dignity." Marshall McLuhan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bos_hybrid Posted August 22, 2009 Share Posted August 22, 2009 That's quite a leap you made there. No not really. No one said anything about not wanting romances, there was talk about M/M romance and that is the respone by those on the bio boards when someone posts something derogatory in those threads.

There was a discussion about badly done romances and people being obsessed with romances. I simply pointed out that all romances can be skipped, which is what I usually do.

RPGmasterBoo Posted August 22, 2009 Share Posted August 22, 2009 actually, preemptive IS best. once it becomes norm that every 10th thread is a romance thread... and that every romance thread necessarily needs become a gay-romance thread, it is too late to stop. That's right. btw, Gromnir Doesn't go to bio boards no more... and one reason is the ubiquitous romance threads. The other being you were banned? Dunno what you did to get banned.

Probably said something intelligent and spot on, that kind of thing doesnt pay off at all there. worthy of note: 1) banning does not preclude our ability to read the bio boards 2) banning Gromnir does not prevent us from simply creating an alt account regardless, our banning didn't change our visiting o' the bio boards. am not gonna revisit the cause o' our banning, but Gromnir alternatively defends and criticizes bioware as much now as he did previous to banning. our banning does not in any way increase or diminish the quality o' bio games... am not so petty as to allow priestly to alter our perspective of bio games. and to stay on-topic... no Pinocchio for me2.

Volourn Posted August 22, 2009 Share Posted August 22, 2009 You don't (usually) get banned for criticizing BIO games or even BIO themselves. It's how one does it.

ME > KOTOR and ME2 > KOTOR2 it was once the case that criticism o' bio games was okie dokie. is not so much the case anymore. biowarians will lock threads real fast if there is too much criticism. is not like olden days... which ain't necessary bad, just different. *shrug* again, ain't gonna get into details, but in point o' fact, we had hardly posted at bio for more than 6 months previous to our ban. is not the ban that decreased our interest in bio boards. actually, we posted at bio more in the 6 months after After our ban as 'posed to before. had genuine questions 'bout motb and later soz. little new info was coming out regarding da... and we had said all we needed to say 'bout me.

WILL THE ALMIGHTY Posted August 22, 2009 Share Posted August 22, 2009 Carth was an interesting, well-written character and I look forward to his reincarnation in Mass Effect 2 as a "new" character in your party. On a more serious note, I think I'll enjoy ME2 a lot more than Dragon Age. At least it doesn't have a weird ad campaign. "Alright, I've been thinking.
