During these ongoing events, it is good to look back at history and see how we reached the state we are at today.

The coolant one is the only one I have ever cared about. Its not so much that im worried about it in everyday play, but it will provide an edge in 8 man competitions.

This latest one wins it for me, personally. The other stuff, I could tolerate, and hold out hope that it'd be fixed. I'd poke at some of them every once in a while to make sure PGI knew there was something there that needed to be addressed, but I was never worried to the extent that I am now. If pay to win goes live as announced, I think I'll be out.

3rd person was bad but this is actually worse, I'd say that the development time invested and potential revenue from it. Its not going to be pulled like 3rd person.

They didnt just merge coolant flush threads they merged ALL the threads that have anything to do with consumables, and the new P2W system.

Cannot wait for the fallout of patchmageddon 2013 once we realize how OP and how P2W the fuzzy dice are.

I don't view netcode as a "rage" topic, because it's something that is broken as opposed to a design decision by the devs. All the poll options are decisions that the development team (or the moderation team) has made or talked about.

In other words, the devs didn't INTEND to put broken netcode in. They just didn't get it right. They intended on doing the things in the poll.

Voted other:

GOLD MEDAL: Trollmando before speedcap (Think 200+KPH lag shield with an XL300)

SILVER MEDAL: HBK-4P before the hardpoint nerf and engine cap(had 11 or 12 energy hardpoints, not 9...Could mount 11 SL and could go like 95+KPH lol)

BRONZE MEDAL: A1 Catapult raidboss (before ECM obviously)

Streak cats aren't even on the list, neither are gauss/dual ac20 cats...Removal of CN9-AH, hero 'mechs in general aren't on the list...

the coolant flush rage so far has been so great that PGI had to roll out the terminator series of moderators to delete them all...no seriously.

it also eclipses all the other rage forums to date.

voted other,
right now it's the wide angle lock on cone for Streaks. Thats what really makes 3L's the FOTM. ECM or no ECM, you could laser one to submission if it weren't for the insta-kill streaks.

Most users dont remember this, but one of the biggest rages was back when PGI told us we could not use canon names for Mercenary units. There were at least 100 people on the MWO chat room talking with Garth and Paul and complaining about how they had to change the name of their unit after their websites were already established.

May seem small now, but the forums were a mess

I voted for ecm as a whole. Mainly because they relate to streaks, the haves and the have nots. When artemis was introduced that was the worst week in the game however.
