Why are forums dwellers so negative?

[Brinebarrel-windseeker]

That’s a heck of a good question!

Gotta stop accepting that kind of behavior.

[Confidence-kromcrush]

Which is exactly what he’s doing to all the horrible regular forumgoers, giving them a dose of their own toxicity, albeit just once, unlike the way they are in every thread. I’m sorry he struck a nerve, maybe you can reflect.

Publicly call the bully miserable and you’re the real bully, it wasn’t HIS fault.

[Sabetha-grobbulus]

All that’s going to happen is people laugh and not take the thread seriously, which is what I did.

I’m sorry if treating the troll like a troll offended you =P

[Confidence-kromcrush]

Every post I’ve seen of yours in this thread is “I’m rubber you’re glue.”

He’s simply just saying what everyone thinks. Does anyone really like Akston? Outside of the other forumgoers who all rub each other’s backs, no one cares for the jaded viewpoint and cynical quasihumor of the forum regulars.

It’s an observation on human behavior, and you’re mad about it for God knows why. Like the OP said, they likely are fairly miserable.

[Warzagg-incendius]

Why is the internet a cesspool in general? The structures which people inhabit, be they buildings or websites, are reflections of said people. Misery loves company, and what better way to spread misery than through whining constantly in front of a huge audience?

Did you walk into his web on purpose? I thought you were better at this ???

[Reboen-bonechewer]

Maybe because Blizzard released this game with a billion bugs in it and that includes letting people cheat / exploit, and they did nothing about it? And that ruined server economies and game balance entirely?

They released a buggy game and even lied to people by saying that layering couldn’t be exploited so there is going to be negativity.

If people hate this place they’re free to leave. Nobody is forced to be here as far as I know.

Otherwise I’m sorry that me suggesting people not be part of a problem they’re complaining about and not blindly agreeing about the community being toxic garbage has apparently upset you so much.

I gotta do something while I wand enemies down =P

You’re the only one who seems upset or emotional.

You can try to reframe this all you want, but he’s not claiming to be a victim who hates the forums, he’s simply making a true statement about the jaded regulars.

[Plopss-smolderweb]

Whenever I see a new topic the first few replies are always by people with 300+ posts and they always have something negative to say. Are their lives just that bad? Go play the actual game every once and a while and hop off the forums.

I’m guessing that if someone is on the forums it’s because they are unable to play, such as being at one of those “job” things people keep mentioning. In which case, they probably are mad that they can’t play

As a jaded regular, I’m actually really happy with Classic. There’s a few issues, but for the most part I’m enjoying it more than I even expected to. So far pretty much every issue I’ve had with Classic, a blue post talked about it and how it’d be resolved - like layering boss reset abuse or the Hunter FD issues.

Said the person who seems to have a grudge against all the regulars =P

Anyway since I’m apparently not supposed to point out people’s hypocrisy, and I’m apparently not supposed to use my sarcastic “quasihumour”, what am I supposed to be posting?

I’m curious to know.

has there been a blue post about the hunter FD issues?

[Azula-grobbulus]

This did it.

Feign Death + Trap Bug

Hey everybody, I wanted to take a minute to talk about Feign Death. Hunters are understandably very concerned about the behavior of such an iconic ability, with a variety of important uses, and I want to assure you that we’re aware of your reports and we’re investigating. This one isn’t easy at all. In our reference builds, many of the same behaviors that players are reporting do occur, but sometimes with slight differences in timing or consistency, which makes it really difficult to even ide…

I paid to watch the Dungeons & Dragons movie at the theatre.

I can top that. I saw the original Star Wars movie in the theater in 1977. But I have never watched any of the sequels. It would be too much of a letdown, like playing retail.

[Bigbaneus-remulos]

Because; as is the case with most reviews and whatnot, people very rarely post anything if they’re happy with a product.

The people that are happy and post, are the exception, not the rule.

[Kinvarra-earthen-ring]

I mean, it’s a game forum. In my experience those are generally mostly frequented by people who have a thing or two they aren’t happy about.

Most threads in general seem to start off with some kind of complaint that people generally share, disagree with, or don’t care about. And a lot of people seem to feel pretty strongly about those opinions. Doesn’t necessarily mean they have miserable lives or whatever, in a lot of cases it probably just means that they care about what they’re talking about.

Or they’re bored.

People didn’t like your Classic+ ideas?
