Gotta love people who drink too much of the kool aid.
I am amazed with this new age trend of demanding PROOF for everything.
Let me challenge you, very simple:
I say that you dont exist. Can you prove me that you do ?
I don't think I would quite put it in those word but I've felt in recent years the standards of reporting and reviewing on this site have gone down hill quite a lot . There was a recent article about starwars falling to number 38 in a UK games chart but nowhere in it did it say it was a cross platform and all prices chart and point out in the PC games full price chart it had slipped only one place . To me thats sloppy journelism of the type you would see in a tabloid paper . I would normally say Massively do a better job but they also had a similar article . I think this site has probably got a bit too popular and its gone to the heads of the people that run it .
The forums are a bit of a mess theres a culture of tearing down a game in them as soon as its released . Quite frankly if I were a developer I would stop playing ball with them and remove my advertising revenue . Why would you want to iinvest in a site that will destroy what you are working on as soon as its released . I appreciate people should have the right to air thier views but much of what I see is blatent trolling . I've said this in the past that perhaps mmorpg.com should maybe have a policey of maybe members having to make 50 or a 100 posts in the forums before they can start a topic . Although this would be problematic and you could get a lot of spam .Or perhaps impliment a similar thing to youtube where you can vote a post off for trolling if it gets enough votes .
I'm starting to think more and more this site is actually very bad for the genre unless it really increases its standards and cleans up its act . I hope it does because it used to be a really good site .
the lesson here is: when you are working, be professional; we all know how the coin moves around, but your job is more important than a video game!!
Why would he? You make the claim, thus burden of proof is upon your shoulders.
I am amazed with this new age trend of lack of critical thinking...
Ya imagine that, people actually want proof for claims, you know what claims like this without proof are called? slander, maybe you just believe anything your tolr but smart people want proof.
This, good thing reality doesnt work like this guys world, or else everyone would be in jail, since no proof is required for anything.
Must have asucked to live in this suposed past wehre all you needed to do was accuse someone of something and it becamse fact.
Apparently stating the truth in my sig is "trolling"

All I know is - in my work - if I am given a particular piece of work to do for a set pay, went ahead and did it, but then decide to give that work away freely to others before the person paying me is even able to use it, I wouldn't just be fired; I'd be sued straight to the poor house and guaranteed to never work in my industry again.
Just sayin'.
They do.
Yes, smart people that exist.
But you are only speculation...
In fact I have more solid proof that Gerstman was fired because EDIOS debacle, than that you exist.
You see what I did ?
You demand proof for something that can not be proven.
In fact , if gamespot was dumb to leave any proof. Dont you think Gerstman would sue them for all they have ?
If you wish , i can cite you right now 10 facts that you believe to be true, but are never PROVEN
made youself look foolish? keep going, but the fact of the matter is theres no proof, only speculation, but i suppose your not bright enough to understand that, but please, keep making yourself look like a fool wiuth examples that dont make sense.
Your about to go to jail, since you stole 1 million dollars from me, i dont need proof so good luck.
The funniest part about this is in your post you say that smart people need proof, calling yourself stupid since you dont seem to see the need.

It's more likely that they did not want to release his article here. Then he posted it as a user. Just thinking.
I agree.
I'm no SWTOR fan, most know this, and I know what MMORPG.com is, I have been around here long enough to see how things work, but the guy was fired for pretty fair reasons.
The sad part is that he has invalidated his review by his actions, and it was a rare 'true' one IMO that had nothing to do with shilling or getting swept along in the hype.
Actually it looks more like proof that Danny Wojcicki is an unprofessional, attention-whoring dbag that very much deserved to be fired...

Irrefutable proof is not needed to be convicted of a crime.
Example:
guy 1 and guy 2 are in a room.
guy 1 shoots guy 2 and leaves the room.
guy 1 is spotted in the dark buy guy 3 leaving the room around the time of the crime.
guy 1 gets rid of all factual hard proof, the gun, this clothes ect.
guy 3 tells police what he saw.
guy 1 gets arrested and goes to court.
guy 1 will almost definitely be convicted for murder, yet there is no 'proof'.
Not knowing this simple concept only makes your posts invalid in their statements as you are not knowledgeable on the subject of 'proof'.
Ouch. Pointing others to the dictionary and not using it yourself? Not cool.
And? none of that has anything to do with my post, I never said anything about the kind of proof required to convict someone, but if no proof was required for anything, you would just accuse someone and they would go to jail
.
Reading comprehension, get some.

There is enough proof you are just ignoring facts. Go read articles about viral marketing and how internet sites, print magazines have been under pressure from big publishers why do you think sweatshop companies like EA and Activison can get away with all their crap?
They have influence on gaming sites and even connections with politics. Read the official review on this site again Graphics 9/10 really?
Just look at some "new members" before release they've been here since 3 month at best and easily reached 1.000 and more posts all praising a certain game and heavily flaming everyone with a different opinion...these are facts.
Viral marketers at some point will always make a mistake.
Yeah MMORPG.com has to make money but even they can't control honest opinions after the free month and thankfully €A can't either.
We need a MMORPG Cataclysm asap, finish the dark age of MMORPGS now!

"Then maybe MMORPGs aren't for you."
How am i n ot using it? or are you confusing a dictionary with spellcheck?

again, someone who doesnt know what proof is, "this happens out tehre!" isnt proof that anything specific happened anywhere, no ones arguing whether it happens or not, but you have no actual proof.

I spotted out the corner of my eye Lobotomist stealing 1 million dollars from warmaster670.
While i agree with his review, the way he went about pretty much forced em to let him go.
Review an mmorpg is kinda hard as 1st impression of the product is not enough to give em a fair score, you realy need dig deep and spend alot of time in em befor you get a good picture.
Only thing we as users can do is to study the review of those that make em and when they match ur own score over and over then you can start to pay attention to em. Befor that your better off just playing the game and have a look yourself as a review might not reflect your own view at all.
I know noone on this staff reflect my own view on pretty much every game they review so to me they are a waste to read.
and?did you just wake up?who cares!there are ton of private guys and girls reviewing lol!i said it in the past lobbying of all genre is huge business.it doesnt bring player in for the monthly you might pay your past due with the first month but if your game doesnt deliver people will go back to wow ,not because it is the best not because it became a chatroom in its own right.
and the next game that is popular is gona have instanced event(swtor has it)and non instance event ,it has some of it but doesnt have world raid pvp for some reason even tho it looks like the hardnes of the raid was calculated with pvp in mind!so maybe it is a futur thing dont know.
this game isnt far from it but it need one other thing it need to stop fragmenting people in group of 50 ,just double the amount gees
I do it old school hun
That spellcheck didn't magically appear out of thin air. It uses word out of a ..........
You get a cookie if you guess right.
so should this thread be closed ?the only thing you found to argue about is gramatical?patato,potato?who cares gees!
They didn't want to publish the review he wrote Bill clearly says it in the locked thread:
"I was prepared to post it here as "Why I Don't Like SWTOR", a piece that would give players who are not fans of BioWare's latest a viewpoint that they can sympathize with. Despite the article's somewhat one-sided deragatory nature, we were working out with Danny an article where he would debate against a fan of SWTOR the merits and demerits of the game. "
so if it isnt to your take everybody is forced to hate it to mr emperor?sorry but so far as i know only one nation has an emperor its china ,for now the miitary and their emperor might have a diverging opinion on whatever made the chasm between them in the past but china still has an emporor ,and it is the only nation i know that has one so sorry mr but a lot of player dont feel like they dont love the game.it is a rp biased raid pvp pve world and instanced game so if you dont like rp ,dont go but if you like a good story and the mood to go with it then you will love swtor.iv see lot of player playing with their own noise and then wonder what the fuss is about its a whole it isnt one thing ,the music is timed right the mood of it ,a catastrophe happen the music make you feel it at time ,sometime it is so annoying you re like wtf is there an assasin around etc etc
i wont say its for everybody but casual gamer will love it!
