That Which He Does Not Play

[Theodric]

What exactly does "Aveyond is misogynist" contribute to THIS DEBATE, precisely? Aside from the usual motive of, "ignore this person no matter what the topic, they're evil".

I personally just roll my eyes and shrug whenever I see such accusations flung around. Someone else posting in this thread tried to claim that those taking issue with Venat only did so because they were 'misogynistic'. They're probably used to people backing off when such heavy handed terms are thrown around but some of us are wise to their tactics and the more such words are used incorrectly the less power they end up having.

Are you joking right now? Or are YOU the joke? You can see who made what thread, and choose to never visit any of Aveyond's threads if he, as you say, "has no valid points".

The onus is on YOU, to take responsibility and avoid a poster you hate so much. The ignore button isn't necessary, no I get the feeling you'd rather he disappear and not be able to post at all, huh?

Your actions give credence to the theory that those on here just want to shut Aveyond's thoughts and opinions out. Use common sense, if you would kindly please.

There are people who don't notice or read who's written a thread and just pop into a thread solely based on the title. It's how some necros of threads happen as people have just gone and done a search of some kind about a topic and not see that a thread might be a few years old. Other times you can have a person on ignore and not understand a person's reply to said ignored poster so you then are then in need of unhiding that person's posts.

There was a poster in the past who I had on ignore where trying to follow any of the various people's replies to them didn't make enough sense as to what they were disagreeing with. So I just ended up taking them off ignore. They weren't even the op of the thread even.

I dont hate him, I just disagree with his opinion which he states as fact. And you guys also choose to engage us lol. Most of the time I comment on the topic at hand, you guys derail it first.

You'll note I don't tend to post in threads that make valid objections. I have nothing to add to those. Or things like Male Viera and Female Hroth, which everyone supports.

You can play something and be unhappy about the game because there are no better options.

Those who don't farm Blue Cowrie on Island Sanctuary really missed the chance to sell the dyes and materias. It's literally free money and way better than getting the dyes from Firmament.

That's pretty sad, because OP sounds profoundly unhappy about the state of the game, and yet cannot find something that they enjoy more than a game that makes them THAT unhappy?

He's spoken up many times about the aspects of the game he finds appealing, some just choose to ignore that and concern troll over clashing personality types and cultural differences.

Furthermore, some of us have seen WoW go through this exact same song and dance. Thus we weigh in with feedback - given that this forum is first and foremost a place to leave it.

Can't say I blame him, I haven't touched Island Sanctuary either, never plan to.

No game is perfect. There will always be room for improvement, and it's up to players to let the developers know what they want, what they like, and what they don't like. Positive change is unlikely to happen if people stay silent about their grievances. While it's true no game will cater to every want of an individual (nor should a game developer attempt to), some things can be improved upon by hearing negative feedback from the community. There is no shame in putting these things to voice, as one never knows when enough other voices will join to turn one lone cry into a roaring chorus. Sometimes one doesn't even need many voices. Meaningful change can also be brought about by an individual's words, although it's far rarer.

Offering criticism nearly always means someone cares about the person, place, or thing whose flaws are being discussed. They would say nothing at all if they did not.
