alright, a bit of backround info. i will not get VG, for several reasons that are irrelevent, moving on. although i can sense your frustration with their community, and i have nothing against most of your posts, what was the point of this one? what did you hope to prove by posting a topic that in essence calls a certain community ____ and not much else? If the Original post had some merit towards another aspect of this topic, then i could see your goal more clearly, but as it is, this just seems like a flame post without a point? is it to hit them on their noses? say "bad" and hope they'll realize the error of their ways? or to warn the rest of the MMOG community of a potentially hostile group of people? or to incite more rabid responses from them, towards you?
Why?
Because i want to do a favor to my fellow mmo player by informing them , and do not throw pink sunglases at them.
And I have been doing it for several years now. And i will continue doing it.
Be it for vanguard, eve,wow, or dance online
Yes , i am fool like that

EQ2/WoW was just as bad at launch. Poor performance on machines that met or exceeded the MINIMUM System REQUIREMENTS. I have the same PC i did back when they were launched but I get great performance now on almost high across the board settings.
Vaguard is a great game with awesome potential. Give it some time to shake off its newborn wobbles and start running like the champ it is

WoW could be played on mom's old Dell at launch, EQII was the system hog. Vanguard might be decent in 4 or 5 months assuming everyone is not playing LoTRO by then. Anyway I wonder how many of the fanboys are on a game company payroll, SOE has bet the farm on this one I think. It would not do for them to have another mediocre game launch.

Wows problem was and is to some extent still is with its crappy servers. My point was that MMOs get better. The end of Beta is not the end of development or improvment.

Do you have a vested interesting in seeing Vanguard fail. its just as easy to say all those who slam Vanguard are on the competitons payroll and are encouraged to bash.

Jack the way people where flaming vanguard saying the same stuff over and over in every tread they could , you might think the same thing of them. And ive spent 5000 $ building a new computer and monitor this week , wouldnt hurt my feelings one bit if they offered to pay me lol
I do have a thing against Fanbois of any game. I love UO to death, but I'm not a fanboi of it. Fanbois are people that see no problems at ALL in there game...and that is inevitable. Every game has flaws, if it didn't, then I would be playing it. I understand where Jack is coming from on this one, they defend the games to NO end. Even if it's about the littlest things, like graphics. The escuse alot over the years at the vanguard forums was "Go back to WoW." If your computer can't handle it, go back to wow. If you don't have 2 gigs, go back to wow. Blah blah blah.
The fact is that Vanguard is a system hog right now. There is no escuse for me to upgrade to 2 gigs, when I know in a couple of months my 1 gig will rock the house. We've seen the same kind of treatment in EQ2, I used to not be able to run the game, now it runs like cake.
So, all in all, if you don't feel likg reading this....I pretty much just said that Fanbois need to lay off. your game sucks in a way.
See you all in Telon =D

Total time played:9125 Days, 21 Hours, 29 Minutes, 27 Seconds Time played this level: 39 Days, 1 Hour, 24 Minutes, 5 Seconds
But the main reason people just dismiss it entirelly is the Vanguard community. I seriously hope they all stay in vanguard because such a childish, immature.....
Ok Harafnir, let's see some of the gems you have posted....

No its not. But you wont see that, because of all the pink fluff in front of your eyes. A fan boy is always blind and deaf, and always see diamonds in the dog turds.

Being a lying arrogant twat though.. not so much.
You know, I could have gone on for another month, but you get the picture. Harafnir, all you do is bereate people. I have seen some asshats in my life, but you have got to be the worst. You have no right to call anyone else immature, you are the leader of the fanclub.
Any game you dislike has got to be fantastic, if just for the absence of your gleaming personality.
As to Rattrap, I'm sorry you have run into so many bad people but I assure you, once in the game you can put the bad ones on ignore. I will always stand by the Vanguard community I have met in game. Particularly members of the Elder Dragons are just some of the best people you could ever hope to play with.
Here's to hoping we do get to play along side each other some day.
Ditto Shadrak . Havent seen any games that were perfect or even close at start up. EQ2 was terrible but I loved it. You all can vote with your wallets. If ya dont like a game dont play but dont put down the guy that wants to play. See SOME of you in Vanguard. The others just do what you always do put down others to try to make yourself feel better.

Nah I have a vested interest in being honest. Sigil and SOE are doing quite well by themselves to try and make Vanguard fall on it's ass. On other (small) boards that I visit maybe 4 out of appx 50 people that tried Vanguard are planning on purchasing at release. One thread I got a real kick out of yesterday on the Vanguard forums was the solo thread and fanboys screaming "yes yes Vanguard is a great solo game" to which I have to raise the bullshit flag.
I wonder if fan boys ever consider the backlash from customers who feel as if they have been cheated? Although Vanguard is in much better shape than Dark and Light look what happened to it's rating after people saw what they had payed for. If some guy with a Nvidia 5700 buys Vanguard on fanboys advice and finds out it plays like crap on his machine he will back here looking for blood. Same with people who expect WoW like solo quests. I am real curious to see what happens after release myself. I expect to see a ton of pissed off people looking for some fanboys to open a can of butt whip on.
Okay for everyone bashing the current state of the Vanguard "community". Keep in mind that the game is still in beta (aka free). Little kids and immature people alike are drawn to games in beta. I can 100% guarantee once VG goes P2P this will fix itself in no time. I haven't had a chance to play Vanguard yet but I'll most likely be picking up my copy on the 30th nonetheless.

good god man, the beta card was out of play a week or two back . Now you are not playing unless you are paying.

Anarchy , you are the only Vanboy that is actually benefiting Vanguard community. You do give me some hope that not all is lost.
As for VG , i am keeping my eyes closely on it. I will surely not drop it after i waited for it so long.
But until I start hearing some news about engine optimisations , and clients not crushing , i will wait.
I reinstated my WoW account , so i have something to play until that. ( I know , shallow ... but i was desperate for something fun and casual to play )
