Its A shame really because I feel MWO has and still has a lot of potential, Even with its flaws its still Mechwarrior. I can also understand adding A new IP even if its a little familiar to other games, it could be just as good if not better, but the way you treat your community sometimes seems disrespectful. You ask people to follow your forum rules then violate the conditions of another site because you don't like what was said to you and seemed surprised to be disciplined.

On another note I will continue to support MWO for its good, but I apologize I have no interest in Transverse,. I wish the best of luck in another IP as long as MWO gets the attention it desperately deserves. I feel once Com warfare is fully launched and we can fight our planet wars and a little more balance is in the game most of us will be happy. :) at least I hope.

how did pgi get banned, and why does it even matter? (its reddit - not the MWO site anyway)

also, why are they posting it on here as if it's some big announcement?

I don't quite get it either... maybe I'm missing something...


They created a sub for their own game (against Reddit rules) and then over-moderated that sub by deleting any negative posts (against reddit rules). Reddit has a massive reach, and are VERY strict on using that reach to further your own product/company.

Only if you have a time machine to go back two years to when Founders still played.


Damn, that's a good point. They should just fire Niko right now.

Reddit is basically the THE internet discussion plataform. "Anyone who's anyone is on reddit" pretty much explains it.

They got banned for moderating the subreddit for their own product, a big no-no as it goes against neutrality of discussion.

Sorry I down sized your text... didn't want to muck the thread up!

Personally, I don't know or care who niko is... MY grief is directly aimed at PGI. Though people trolling someone who is by all accounts an egocentric ****** is fine by me.

Pssssst. PGI, if you're still reading this, you could use this unprecedented opportunity to reach out to a huge chunk of your alienated community and take a step towards bringing them a step back to your game. Just saying, you have people who dropped over $100 on your game paying attention to you right now.

P.S. I think a free Urbanmech for all would do it.

Don't forget Niko trying to get MWO users to brigade reddit to give it back. Which is also against the rules. He's pretty much in "Oh **** save my job" mode.

Refunding my god damned founders pledge like I asked them to do within the first 6 months when things were really not shaping up would do it thanks.

Can you elaborate? Like if I am begged to play the game and then spend ridiculous amounts of time to patch it and miss the people who initially asked me to play can that be counted for or against?

That's debatable... Perhaps we should invite him to the island for a debate?

At least he'd acknowledge the invite. Not sure he'd take it though.
