But yeah... keep telling yourself that I'm a bad guy and it all must be PGI or IGPs fault. It can't be anything else, right?

You have a bird in your signature so it is impossible for you to be anything but a ****lord.

I still have to wonder

IF the OP ads are real

Why the change from

the previous ads which

I thought were pretty good?

I've done around 50 refreshes

on Sarna and it hasn't come up

and I've also visited sites where

I know I've seen an MWO/MWT ad before

memegenerator, Access developer forum

etc. Nothing.

Sooo.... I'm skeptical.

And going back and seeing that the OP

is a member of the KONG Dramaqueens

I'm doubly so.

Every patch or so we get a couple sentences that are badly translated from Russian and stick around for a bit. The tragic loss of a biplane is softened somewhat by the notification that "Plane burned down!"

they still haven't fixed that one

@Chronojam
Your post on the RSI forum, is the exact reason why I do believe in the possibility of haters creating these fake adverts.

You just had to turn my post into an attack against me. You simply had to make it personal, didn't you? This is such a moraly poor behavior, I'm at a loss for words. The sad part is: You probably don't even realize, that what you did there is wrong.

This looks like a real MWO add. Now compare it to the two in the OP. Pay special attention to the Mechwarrior Online logo.

If you compare them, you'll realize why I don't believe the two in the OP are made or ordered by PGI/IGP.

We covered this within the first few pages. The ads come from MMOtraffic.com, a web advertising company (specializing in MMOs) that is HQ'd in the Netherlands and has recently expanded into North America.

Don't know about you guys but my spider sense is tingling on this one and I think its best if it's best left to Shimmering Sword and for us to see what if anything happens.

So you guys rage on. I'm just gonna kick back, eat popcorn and be on troll patrol

Man, how do you think I get them to stick?

[Corvus Antaka]

Just remember, bad press is nearly as good as good press.

So really, whether it's IGP or "haters" doesnt matter. The ad takes them here. The battletech "images" still belong to battletech.

It's in my mind equally possible some {Dezgra} made a fake adwords account and created all this as it is that IGP hired some skeezy company to advertise and they where so amazingly lazy that they used fan made art, but until we hear an official statement from IGP the only thing this thread is worth right now is the fun speculation and name calling

I wouldn't put it pass some of the {Surat} on this forum to make stuff like this up.

Those ads look extrememly fake, even the logo is wrong.

Wait... Kong guys are posting this... nothing to see here

Get your head out of your ***. Kong probably cares more about this title than you could ever. You can only get burned so many times before you learn not to ******* touch the stove.
