These forums are weird

9 months of literally no content because the developers could not keep them hands to themselves, which they then blamed on the players? Doesn't seem likely to me, Macchi!

Let's be real, everybody on this board is weird.

Except me. I'm built different.

When you remember that 6.2 dropped over nine months ago with barely anything of value, and we're being blamed for not taking enough breaks...bad omen!

Personally speaking, 6.2 has been my fav Patch since 5.3. Fantastic MSQ, Pandemonium, Island Sanctuary ect. Lots of stuff which kept me hooked, and I am sure I was not alone. Just sucks that no patch can please everyone all the time.

Then I come here and it seems like every topic on the front page is just negative, angry, or bitter.

What's the deal?

Sounds like you have never met the bad side of the RP community then XD

Don't even start with the RP community. Don't even make eyecontact with them.

But seriously RP community needs to step their game up too. I'm sick of bartending and seeing mary sue characters who've "slayed thousands of goblins", or the edgy broody characters that don't want you to speak to them but want you to pay attention to them anyway. Please, just go to Balmung and have them... whip you into shape.

But this is also the internet so even as I write this, no matter what, forum culture will always be forum culture anyway.

"Forum culture" is what the moderators make it. Allowing people to openly criticise the game itself is not the same thing as allowing personal attacks on those who disagree, or allowing the same person to flood the forum with multiple threads on slightly different versions of the same complaint.

Active moderators could be managing the forum so much better without having any impact on people's ability to post criticism of the game itself.

My character has factually killed thousands of coblyns and doblyns.... Because that was one of the best ways to level in 1.0 while solo.

From mythflox and Alexander I've probably killed thousands of goblins by now as well.

I've also had the "kill 200k enemies" achievement since it was added like what, 8 years ago now, so my count must be way higher now.

I don't RP tho so it's more just curiosity.
