Personally I think I can do with less "What game is for me?" threads. I'm guilty of doing it, this is why I came here. The question is valid and it takes time to look over every game listed in the left panel here (even assuming it was a complete list). But there's a lot of such threads. What is needed is a questionaire or wizard people can use to get an accurate list of games they might like.
If I say the devs behind your game are scammers, liars, and thieves; you'd better listen.
Also, pie is the preferred forum dessert. No cookies, no cake, only pie.
No matter what, I am always right, even if I'm wrong.
If I admit to being wrong, it's because you are incapable of understanding the profound reasons behind the obvious point that I am indeed right. You should not be ashamed if it comes to this, however. Being inferior does not make you a bad person. I will not view you in any light lesser than I already do.
1. If you hate World of Warcraft, you are not alone. In fact, if you choose to post a thread detailing the reasons you hate World of Warcraft you will more than likely create a long thread where no one listens to anyone else and someone eventually says a bunch of curse words and is banned. If at all possible, please only reply to anti-WoW threads rather than creating your own. 2. There is a list of FREE MMORPGs at the top of the forum. Each one is uniquely crappy and contains just about the same features. Posting a thread that asks for the best free MMO or for a suggestion will only result in someone from a free MMO company advertising, or someone trying to get you to play Runescape. Run while you can. 3. Yes, we already know about Cry Gaia, Dragonball Online, and Harry Potter online. There have been 5345354 threads for each. No, we don't know anything else. Asking for our opinion will result in wild speculations and almost zero helpful information. 4. Most of us know that SoE sucks. If you create a thread detailing the ways in which SoE sucks most people will skim your post and then write their own whine post in hopes that someone will finally read about their jedi who sucks now, or that they really wish EQ1 would release another progression server which they wouldn't sign up for anyway. 5. The following topics have been run into the ground more times that Scrooge McDuck's cane: - Permadeath -Free for all PvP -Full loot PvP -Skill vs. Level based progression -Casual vs. Hardcore -Twitch combat -WE NEED A WESTERN/SCIFI/CYBERPUNK/MAD MAX etc etc etc MMORPG with lasers and pew pew -I got banned for _____ but I didn't do it!!!!!!!!! Oh wait yes I did lol. -I didn't win any of the contests =( -I wish WoW had <insert impossible game mechanic like flying tanks that shoot turtles and candy>
Feel free to add more.

-If you plan on posting a "What MMO should I play?" thread, please refrain from posts like the following:
"im lookin 4 a game wit elfs n lasers ok some mounts 2 thx"
The creation of such a thread will only result in players suggesting whatever MMO they play and EVE. Be more specific!!!
-I know that forums are not your 8th grade classrooms, but please use paragraphs and some punctuation. A thread which contains a page worth of text with no place to pause will result in most users ignoring your post. These posts are also known as "wall o text". Be aware that all they do is hurt us.
Another type of post that some need to be aware of... This is the one where some shlube says something like.... I just ordered this system from UberRig.Com, will it play X?... Dude, we know that you know it will play the damned game... thats why you spent 4K on it. What your really doing here is fishing for idiots who will think you're cool because you have this computer. It's really no different than people who have their computer specs listed in their Sig...A shallow and transparent plea for attention.
-This forum contains many text formating tools. That being said, posting a reply in XX-LARGE does not cause users to find your post any more intelligent than it is. The attention it brings is much like that of Nancy Grace screaming at everyone she disagrees with.

-Also, asking if specs for a rig that came out in 1993 will play _______. It won't. I'm sorry. I'm sure you can find a download for the demo of DOOM or Duke Nukem.
-There is no such thing as an unbiased post. You will always formulate a review based upon experiences and the opinions you've created based on those experiences. Considering the "other side" of an argument merely proves that you have an opinion to refute. Instead, just reply to another Vanguard post with your observations. If you're lucky, the post will be ignored, and you won't be banned for calling someone a @#%^@&;^.
- The User Interface (UI) that most games adopt has been around in 3D and 2D gaming for a long time. Saying that game X copied game Y is futile. A health bar is a health bar. This argument holds no ground.
so... your trolling? you are blaming wow with xxxxx subscribers?
... great post, but think, lot of people, dont understand some sarcasm, and, dont have any humor sense on theirself. Almost, a fanboi always answer with rage trying to kill you just because you dont love his god, Blizzard!

Yeah, sarcasm is too much for some. And no, I am not blaming any game. These are all pretty basic things I've noticed.

Would this thread be considered an anti-WoW thread? I'm not sure whether I should post to it or not. LOL
Good stuff.
- Stop beating the dead horse that is Vanguard's release and all of its flaws. I just don't care what is/was/will be wrong with this game anymore.
Or any other game that has or will come out. Some posts have the attitude "Why wait for the release lets kill it now!"
You broke one of your own rules by bashing WoW extensively. Other than that, well said, sir.
So what are we supposed to discuss?
I like turtles.

6. If I reply to your post, I will try to make it a single sentence whenever possible.

before you post here you should know:
1) most people here play LOTRO but for some reason bash WoW even tho LOTRO == WoW
2) most people that post here hate PVP thus LOTRO is #1.
3) mentioning anything different from WoW/LOTRO is just stupid
-Using the term "carebear" doesn't make you seem tougher or more authoritative.
-Darkfall will never come out, so stop making posts about how awesome it's going to be.
