The Politics of Gaming (semi-rant/discussion)

[Cloudbringer]

I do agree Sazzie! All the games are just for fun, if someone takes them that seriously or worse yet takes other people's enjoyment less than seriously, then it's not worth hanging out where they post such things! [img]tongue.gif[/img]

if you like a game, play it, the only reason anyone would want to insult you for playing another game is because they, themselves, were lazy enoguh to not want to play or enjoy any other game than their game. By using such statemnts as that they are only saying "My game's better than your-oarse..."

9_9 sickening ain't it?

Take PSO for example, People play it, so what if it's hacker-ridden and the servers dont do a thing about it, the game's still playable and there seem to still be nice people around, every now and then someone gets on just to say YOU SUCK and leave.. it's scarry but people still play, Just look at the Japanese ships, they got 80000 people on RIGHT NOW and they're all playing using Dreamcast systems which came out... oh I dunnow... A GENERATION OF CONSOLES AGO @_@ infact peopel still play bomberman online too! and Anarchy online despite the fact some people dont like them doesnt mean that everyone has to hate them. For god's sake I played Warcraft 1 with someon! and I know a kid at school who likes to play PONG... o.0

I'm with you, Saz. I can't really talk 'cause I went on Black Isle just now 'cause I couldn't get on IW until 1 p.m. Texas time, or CST as they call it, elsewhere. Lord, it's depressing, all the black-and-navy boards. AND, they make you put spoilers in black or navy text to protect some poor innocent that doesn't know that

Imoen gets kidnapped. But, they do call Mods "Spoilers of Fun," so they do have a sense of humor. Plus, the Mod for the PS:T forum has the screenname "The Lady of Pain," and there's a really nice woman gamer who has "Imoen."
