After tonight's show of forum rage over various topics I just could not help but think how fun a live chat room would be with 100,000 fellow Mechwarriors .Tonight just shows PGI how much passion is still left for the MechWarrior IP among the fans old guard and new community.I probably would chat and laugh all night long in between matches like I did long ago on the MSN gamming Zone.

I feel that 90% of the posts would consist of the following phrases cycled over and over again:

**** P2W
**** PGI
I SHOULDN'T HAVE SPENT ANY MONEY ON THIS ****** GAME
THIS IS A PONZI SCHEME

If you use the term "Coolant Flush" bad things will happen.
Move along. Nothing to see here.

Hey Niko. :( No. We were not discussing "Coolant Flush" here.

Man I miss those days. I totally agree that MWO needs to get with the program with a good lobby system. You actually seem like part of a living community, instead of all the random drops against random people and games that mean nothing.

Yeah except people would just go make new names with different email addresses. So your banhammer was kinda pointless hehe

PGI would have to hire people, if not get some moderators @ all times of the day. That's the minimum required to handle such a thing (not that I liked the zone mods, but you had to have people there).

This is certainly coming, when Clan Warfare is around. I don't think this is a must-need at the very moment, but I'd rather they work on the communication part of the interface first (adding friends for one, or adding them after a match) and the current system they have as it is is a poor man's version of some really... bad IM system.

Holy hell, if people in DHB are pissed then PGI have definitely gone over a line.
