I imagine that can happen to any online community. Eventually the polite, reasonable folks stop feeling like it’s a group of people they want to hang around. So they leave, and those who remain start to see only those who agree with them— and, because that’s all they see, they think that’s all there is. Everyone feels as they do, according to them. Once the tipping point is passed, you’re left with the extremes… those who hate, and those who dislike the haters enough to endure the toxic atmosphere to try and combat them. Each clash between those groups drives more of the others away.

so true

and btw, dear CM´s, totally ONtopic...

You all are a bunch of hypocrites. Not a damn one of you listens to what anybody else has to say on this or any other forum. Everybody talks over everybody else, and everybody else's opinions are not only wrong, but the opinions owners must be mentally deficient, ugly, fat, never get laid, have a neckbeard, and so on. None of you listen to anybody else, but you expect the game devs to listen to you? Then you ***** more about how if they'd only listened to you on the forums. Get over yourselves.

And don't give me that 'but we're supposed to be testing! How can we test if they don't listen?' BS, open and closed betas are publicity stunts these days, nothing more.

I am no fan of bioware, to be sure. But that game dev is spot on.

And SWTOR sucked big time.

(obviously, I dont literally mean 'all of you' I mean more like 95% of you)

I'm sorry...did you say something?

Yup...just like MWLL, Mektek, DSC to name a few in this community....

...this place is clearly heading that way. Personally I think a lot of the idiots making utterly false inflammatory statements ought to be handed temporary (game and forum) bans....

...sit them in the corner wearing a dunce cap and let the settle down for a few days the first time, a couple weeks the second, a month any other time.

You have something similar here, an ECM absolut nobody asked for, poor lightmech hit detection,
a pure 8 man mode with no matchmaking nobody asked for ... and so on.

Every single thing you mentioned was demanded by people like you with the exception of the netcode. The reasons the net code broke has be very clearly explained and they've pretty clearly explained what they're doing about it and why it will take time.

Can you possibly be anymore disconnected from reality.

This..right here..prime example of someone telling PGI 'do this or fail!' without a single bit of evidence beyond their own opinion. In CB, the majority of the people DEMANDED the 8v8 drop ability..yet no one wanted it..same with Conquest and Assault..in CB the majority demanded Conquest, we get it and suddenly NO ONE EVER ASKED FOR IT! You have no idea what the majority want, you only know what YOU want and it seems to be in opposition to what the masses want..so..who should PGI listen to?

Don't argue with an *****. He'll drag you down to his level and beat you with his vast experience.
