Diablo2 doesnt fit in here. This forum is more about pure rpgs as bg and wizardry8.
And if you really want to talk about it there are plenty of good forums around.


From Grojlach:

I'm with Dreamer128 on this one... And Glycerine, like you already mentioned, Diablo 2 attracks more immature posters than the forums we already have at Ironworks. Do we really need those?
And calling Diablo 2 an rpg is almost an insult to some of the posters here...
Put my name on the "against D2" list.


First off: Whether Diablo 2 is or isn't an RPG is a matter of debate, not fact. The fact that we have forums here for Darkstone and Wizards & Warriors should indicate that not every game IW caters to is an AD&D Infinity Engine game. So drop the elitist cr*p, please!

Secondly, the maturity of the posters has far less to do with the games than it does with the degree of moderation and self-policing that goes on here. Forums are only as good as the posters and mods allow them to be. There are plenty of BG/BG2 forums out there as well that are riddled with immature posters and flamers. Not a tenable argument, guys.

Thirdly: Our own webmaster, Ziroc, plays Diablo 2. Not really a point, but careful with the comments, there!

(and, no, I'm not a D2 player...but in the interest of fairness I felt I needed to speak up on this issue. If Ziroc feels a forum is warranted for Diablo 2, then I imagine he'd be ok with creating one.)
