The Devs need a much needed thanks!

I predicted you two specifically, out of literally everyone, would respond to that GIF with eerily similar responses to what you did. >_>

Am I a prophet from lord Zodiark, out here predicting the future?



Nah, he stole the hay from yours



It's an older woman thing. My grandmother is the same way. They think that because books were the major source of information in their time, that you MUST read books to get information these days. Of course that's no longer true as the internet offers far more information than a book every could, and is far easier to access, but they're from a different time. Although, at least when my grandmother tells me that she's at least trying to be helpful even though she's wrong. Silverbane's just trying desperately flailing around screaming things like "nazi" and "1984" in an attempt to get people to side with her. After all, siding with an unhinged person is better than siding with a nazi right?



Absolutely nothing. For all her talk about 'haters', she's a hateful person herself.



Remember this:


Yeah, she just proved that statement to be 100% true.









THAT WAS THE ONE GUY WHO WAS ON YOUR SIDE AND YOU STILL ARE MAD AT HIM LOL (EDIT: I read an 'it' between 'ignore' and 'Silver'. This way my bad. Happens to everyone and I'll admit that it happened to me this time)



Agreed. I'd honestly rather have the forums be a place where we can praise the devs when they deserve it, and be critical when its deserved. That's always been my position on this topic. People who praise the game aren't white knights. People who are critical aren't haters. White knights are people who go around shutting down criticism, and haters are people who complain with the intention of having the game self implode. I genuinely don't think we have too many actual haters on the forums if I have to be honest. The vast majority of the people I've encountered that are critical of the game give their feedback out of a desire that the game would improve. However, I do believe the forums do have a serious problem with white knights who pretend that forums meant for feedback are meant to be social media platforms for them to have a positive echo chamber in.

if you intention is to give the development team feedback, it would really be appreciated if people could stick to that rather than wandering into ageist diatribes which have nothing to do with the topic at hand and just promote dated stereotypes. Might have been unintentional, but a few of this posts have wandered down that path not just this one).

Not to mention, all of this back and forth regarding personal vendettas. Cmon people - stick them on an "ignore" list . Some people just love to stir up sh*t, the more you respond they happier they are. Just ignore them, if anything, for the rest of us.

If they have the right to call anyone who doesn't kiss SE's boot a 'hater' (not talking about giving the dev team praise when they earn it, I'm talking about dev worship), I can call them out for all of the times they've been a drama baiter. Let's be real, the critics aren't the ones who derailed the thread, we're just participating in it.

Yet you're fueling the fire by responding in kind. The drama baiters aren't just the ones who start it - it's also the ones who keep it going.

Thank you.

I really don't understand how she's still going around and about despite insulting half the people in this thread by this point. She really feels like a landmine. Best to do really is to just ignore that she's at all here and carry on.

She does have a point. At some point, someone needs to do something about people like this. It's not just her harassment that's the problem, as that really does need to be reported at this point. It's the fact that we tolerate people coming over, flip the table and then when you try to set it back, they see it as an opportunity to make the situation worse. One thing I will say though is that at least she didn't throw any insults.

And honestly, saying "keep to the topic" is kind of moot anyway. At least on this thread. I mean, this is such a bait topic, isn't it? It's drama-stirring as it is. But everything's already been said, all the crap's already been thrown. There's a thread going on for people to not only express gratitude to the devs but also provide feedback as to what is actually interesting about the game that shouldn't be changed and people often take for granted. And it was born out of this thread. Both out of snark (I wanted to test and see how long it took for it to be dead in comparison to this one), but also out of a genuine concern. Because, I think it was Deveryn who said it? If not, then he's living rent-free in my head But I remember someone saying that there are people who work in retail and aren't appreciated at all. And I agreed. So hasn't this thread fulfilled its purpose?

This thread kind of outlives its purpose, really. It's just here to keep fuelling stupid drama that we frankly don't need.
