Kind of funny that they assume mmorpg.com has somehow singled out Mortal Online to bitch and moan about, or as they call it "post negative comments".
Of course this community will bitch and moan about Mortal Online. No shit dude! The mmorpg crowd bitches and moans about EVERY game out there.
A good game needs no defence, a bad game has no defence.

IF THE ONLY DEFENCE FOR CRITICISM OF A GAME IS CALLING SOMEONE A TROLL OR HATER, THAT SAYS A LOT ABOUT THE QUALITY OF THE GAME
Are there any sites that have POSITIVE coverage of Mortal Online since release? If people want to live in a bubble that's exactly what the highly censored official forums are for...
I guess Massively is part of the "consipracy" too....

I wouldn't even know where to begin commenting on such paranoia. Most of the posts here are made by people who actually purchased MO, played it and share their opinions. Truth is one doesn't need to look any further than the MO official forums to find similar feedback although it's forum tends to delete many posts. A recent post tonight that hasn't been deleted yet is as follows...

Getting tired of the fail......*A Myrm Rage Post*
A Story:
I sat here tonight at my computer just about ready to double click my MO icon...but I didn't. I just looked at it and went...bleh. No motivation; no reason to play. This has been a fairly bad weekend, in regards to moderation from SV. Players have been punished without being told why and yet we still sit here with constant crashes, unbalanced mechanics, and poor communication from SV. I mean really? Sure, now we have someone to reboot the server, but we still don't have 24/7 GM support. To say otherwise is an outright lie. Just look at IRC, or ask in game how long people have been stuck on the weekends at night. IF GM's are on, they continue to support their biased perspectives and unfairly punish anyone they want.
Consider Kootenay's response in this thread.

They punished players...then told one of their guildies that the rest of them got punished? In essence..."pass it on". I would use the B word (Ban) to describe some of the actions...but that would get this thread immediately locked. Hell, it will probably get immediately locked anyway. (Note: I was neither involved nor punished.)
Sadly, the moderation from SV has taken a massive nose-dive. If you speak out against them, or discuss something they dont like. They remove the conversation. Essentially, they have become forum gestapo. I personally, think this not the way to "Win friends and Influence people"; in reality, they are telling the customers to deal with it.
I checked out my guild vent recently as well. In general, some hardcore MO supporters all throughout beta. From closed beta to launch we have had a fairly strong showing until recently. After the vendor crash bug (which took a week to fix in a launched and pay for play game) most of them stopped logging on. Most are tired of the "Soon" promises. Like the awesome weapon stances....for spears....for the already over powered and over used spears. No other weapon yet. Or the magic balance...make mages in non-combat mode as fast as melee in combat mode. Oh, make the reagents cheaper too....Just as bad as the Open Beta naked brawlers now. Do you guys even understand what balance really means? What about the armor balance you guys implemented? Now everyone just wears lighter shit. We still all wear the SAME SHIT as each other. No variety, you have only changed our one viable option to something besides plate. Instead of running in plate, we run in scale. No alternate play styles, you just changed what everyone is using. Your lack of...well...everything has essentially driven most of the community away.
Seriously SV; what the fuck are you doing to this game that so many of us love to support? You guys have been talking about this damn epic patch being the "Messiah Patch". It's going to turn water into wine, fix PvE, improve inventory...blah blah blah....I don't think anyone believes you anymore. You guys said months ago that you were going to balance combat....how did that turn out? How about magic? Ah, cant fix the rendering/load issues.....just make horses slower. Hrm...new patch crashed 95% of the user base when they talk to a vendor...give us a week to fix it. Really? That's a damn pathetic attempt to compensate for your lack of programming skill. Learn to test, learn to plan. Get out of the tactical bullshit and use some strategic thinking in running your company and planning your game.
The server population is dying.
The game mechanics are still broken.
The in-game support is nearly non-existent during non-peak hours.
Communication in regards to punishment is non-existent.
This is what we call...a lack of fundamentals.
Fix your fundamentals and take note. Most of us are looking for something else to play because we are tired of this bullshit you call management and support. Give us a reason to WANT to play this game and learn to test your patches before you launch them.[/quote]

Sums up the current state of things..unfortunatly.
I've decided to give MO 4 more payments before wiping it from my memory.[/quote]
and that's just the first 5 posts on the thread. It appears the sentiments expressed by many here are not much different from MO's own players who are currently subscribed.

And now the source thread you linked is deleted. I certainly hope the mods at MMORPG do not allow this forum to now be manipulated by the actions of another forum.

haha, MO mods have already deleted the disturbing thread.
It looks like the thread in question has been removed.
Since the thread no longer exists, I'll be closing this up.
Fortune favours the bold.
