need more spongebobs

shirlnt

Someone on lodestone was quoting the Krusty Krab Pizza song and it got me to LOLing.   Then it got me to thinking about that episode of Spongebob.  There they are in a bad situation and Spongebob is singing and staying positive.  Squidward is being negative.  Here we are at the launch window of a new MMO and things are not going as smoothly as we would like and we are getting a variety of reactions as a result.  I think most of us are hoping the issues get addressed and wish things were going better.  No matter how positive we feel about the game itself, we all understand and can experience frustration when we are unable to log in or progress due to the issues.  The thing with the "squidwards" though, is Squidward can find the negative in almost anything and can turn even positive experiences into negative ones....or make a negative experience even more negative.  While we do not need to be as unrealistically positive as Spongebob, we could also use a little less of overly negative attitude of Squidward.....but then again, at the next launch of the next MMO, I'm sure the forum of that game will be filled with the same stuff.  Hopefully, a few months down the road, all the issues with launch for this game will be the war stories and remember whens that we are talking about and laughing over.  MMOs almost need an "I survived launch" achievement, but I guess that what those preorder bonuses are for.
