I don't think he likes to do the Town Hall meeting. I could very well be wrong about this, but he sounds so frustrated and irritated with the questions during those Town Hall meetings. At the end of those meetings, he sounds like he's about to just flip the table. Maybe I'm wrong, maybe it's just because he's been having bad days or I'm misinterpreting his tone.

^This. So much this.

I would HATE doing the town hall meetings, especially when asked the same damn thing 30 ways on every form of media!
The key part is he keeps right on doing them anyways!

I am surprised they don't shut the forums down. No information is deciminated from here and they don't care what forumites have to say. PGI does not update the information on the website other than sales and challenges. They do not advertise to try and get more players. It is almost like they don't want their game to grow (with a larger player base they would have more money and it would remove the excuse for slow development).

Actually they do advertise. They just uploaded a new sort of 'intro' video on youtube last week I think it was.

I think the problem is that so many people outside the MWO community already have a very poor attitude towards the game. For what reason I can't even begin to imagine, probably from people that have left the game over the years and been spreading their hate for it to others.

Well the OP can't copy/paste so we don't know just how harmlessly it was done.

So we are to just take his word that Russ just "brushed" him off for a casual suggestion then? Ummm NOT!

These Forums have proven over time they are a waste of Dev time. Rage, Whines and QQ do not make for good conversations. Read any thread on here and see how quick they devolve in e-peen spewing trash, 99% of the time. Don't blame the Dev Team at all. Most on hear have stated they hate PGI, Russ and MWO and will not spend any monies ever. Why would a Dev see it as anything but a waste of their time.

You piss in my cornflakes once, shame on you. If I let you piss in them a second time, then shame on me and no one gets anymore cornflakes, for fear of them getting pissed in.

The Forums have made their bed. Now they lie in it, like it or not.

Yeah, if you want to complain about lack of communication on the forums, you can blame the toxic personal insult spewing forum goers.

Because you know, raging, whining, and insults is how adults solve their problems and get what they want. Forget intelligent, constructive conversation.

Cool. Saves me the trouble finding it. Thanks.

Looks to me like Russ is in the right this time. Answered all questions and then blocked you after you harrassed him. Complaining about his method of communication is futile, just be glad he's communicating at all.

Phase 2 took quite a lot longer than was expected but regardless the content delivered is exactly what was promised.

It's just as I thought. He was being an a-hole to Russ. Now that we can see what Russ really said, look at all the spin he put in the OP to make Russ look bad. I feel sorry for Russ for having to put up with disgruntled players like this one on Twitter.


Nothing to see here, move along folks.

So going back to the being political thing I was talking about, coming out and insulting the work they have done and being caustic is not the way to go about suggesting things.

OMG! New Forum rule. No more long winded Rants, QQ and Whines. A 139 character limit will be used so we can pretend we are on Twitter... Because obviously no one ever shits on MWO or the Company owner/Dev on Twitter, they always just ask all polite and the like. LOL

Sarcasm doesn't go over well on the internet.

I wish the forums could be just that, a place of civil discussion and brainstorming where Devs and players could speak together but you're right.

I'm not quite sure I understand this joke. Was it aimed at me, or was it just a general joke about the futility of choosing Twitter instead of the forum to avoid hostility, or something else entirely?

They use to be just that. Then "it" showed up. And like a bad case of the ****** virus, it just won't go away. lol

precisely why i will never ever feed this cow another penny again, and my wave 3 refund has already gone to another game. if i only i could go back in time and not have been so naive to spend so much $$ here.

Huh? What is why?

The president of the company is a human being and doesn't want to be publicly harassed by a gamer with an inflated sense of self worth? That doesn't seem like a very good reason.

not paying them monies has nothing to do with not playing here and there, and gas guzzler this game has gone no where in 3 years and absolutely no depth in CW at all, just my personal opinions. but when you play a game like war thunder and the maps are outstanding the gmae play is excellent the performance is outstanding and there is 40,000 plus players at any given time for obvious reasons just makes me more pissed off at the lack of anything except nice looking mechs.
