Have the flamers cooled down?

Is it just me or have these forums become more calm nowadays? Or are we just waiting for the next fail mmo? Not that it's a bad thing, I don't see the point of flaming other games, I think it's a waste of time you could spend on the game you prefer.
Maybe some people just got older

were all just patiently waiting for AION lol (Note : im not a flamer >_>)
My friend, there is still plenty of animosity to go around.
I just prefer to call it 'aggressive argumentationalism'.
Objectivity is delivered with a lack of personality made for the mainstream but never used for the mainstream.
Everyone is unable to flame anymore as we are all so excited for this new MMORPG!
people tell me its going to be a sweet experience
awesome!!!
Agree. I think some of the most frustrated players were PvP fans and both Darkfall and Aion have helped with that.

I like PvP and I would not touch either of those even with a long stick. Everything I hear from them is bad. Even the posts that praises those two sound bad! More likely everyone's waiting for the next decent game to come by. Calm before the storm. Just wait when people get disappointed.

School has started for most public education facilities. Even private ones like colleges.
I find it amazing that by 2020 first world countries will be competing to get immigrants.
I think the more recent, smoother mmo launches helps compared to the darkfall, WAR, AoC debacle. Some stuff is still going on though.
However I have to ask you, what is your definition of a "flamer"?
In my opinion these forums are overrun with zealous "fanboys" who feel threatened whenever you make a critical point of anything. If you don't like this or that or think some games are fundamentally flawed.
In general I find this whole "fanboy" and "flamer|hater|doomsayer" is simplistic and stupid. Time and time again I have been labelled "hater" or "doomsayer" for calling out things that are wrong with a game under development. And I still have to find myself not right. And more funny, usually the other half turns around after launch and agree that the game was indeed flawed.

Bad economy. Everyone is losing their office jobs and have to work at McDonalds with no internet access.
I agree whole heartedly. I've started to get warnings anytime I say anything negative at all and I'm getting pretty tired of it. I think it's time they remove that stupid report button and have the moderators *gasp* moderate.

yep.steer clear of wow .thats what i do lol
I am afraid it is a calm before the storm, when Aion releases things will get back to normal.
The only game that have benn released since Df is CO that just got out but superhero games don't seems to get as much trolling as other games. So once Aion releaes things should get back to normal.
Also MMO is not as popular in schools today as a year ago so maybe some of the worst flamers quit because of that.
I too have noticed a downward trend of vigorous flaming of newly released games. Champions Online seems to be somewhat calm. Aion I think will show some more lively discussion

LOL that is very funny & ironic coming from a WoW player.

Played: Anarchy Online, WoW, Warhammer, AoC, Ryzom. Aion
Strongly Recommend: Ryzom, EvE, Allods Online

Actually, Aion is made like Lineage, not WoW. The games may be similir because most MMO that are hack & slash are set up in a similiar manner.
The game is pretty good, better than WoW in almost every aspect. I doubt it would rival WoW's PvE endgame content, but that is not Aion's focus.

How does caling me a fanboy help your point? You do exactly what you criticize in your post and make yourself look like fanboy. Out of all the big releases last year, AoC is the biggest failure, so questioning your standards is completely valid. You yourself emphasise your critical opinion on fundamental flaws.
Oh, and as to my posting history, if you really check it you will find I consider WoW and EVE as the only two MMORPGs worth playing right now. It just happens I enjoy WoW, not EVE.
A war only got two losers, although one lost slightly more than the other.

If it's more like L2, I guess we'll see the a new race after launch....The Bots.

You are acting like a fanboy because you are extremely biased. While AoC was an epic fail launch, which is classic of Funcom, please do not act like WoW launch was without hiccups. In fact, it was VERY troublesome as almost all MMO launches run into serious problems. By today's standards, it would have been considered "FAIL" as well.
The fact is that AoC has come a long way and it is a solid PvP game with an interesting combat system, and good story. It is a deeper game than WoW, which is not exactly hard to be unless we're talking about Browser games. I've played it recently, have you? I chose not to stick with it as I have limited time and found games better in my opinion, but I would definitely revisit it.

Yeah, I am actually quite concerned about that and that will be a key point. But supposedly, NCSoft is taking a different approach with Western launch and will keep the botters out.

Aion is putting the flamers to rest, they have nothing to flame the game is amazing.
And i also agree, I hope that NC takes actions to prevent botters, L2 was bad.
