I liked the vlog but I could never get into SoI. when i played the codebase regarding inventory was incredibly frustrating. It was especially bad wth handling money.
i heard they fixed that but it was long after i left. A shame because the setting seemed good.

For some reason the vid would stop around 13 mins for me.
I liked what he was saying about the player base missing plot hooks or reacting in a completely different way than expected. It's one of the biggest joys and pains of staffing.

I think we end up getting fixated on the negative stuff, because there is such an incredible, suffocating level of harmful censorship that goes on at the regular boards. Not only are posts outright deleted or mocked, but people are often leery of weighing in at the risk to their karma or, rather more more likely, getting blacklisted.
There has been evident corruption displayed by the game's top shot callers. When you combine that with heavy-handed censorship, you get...well, this shadow forum.
You're going to find a lot of negativity on this board, because its primary reason for existence is to give voice to that which would otherwise be suppressed. You're not really going to alleviate the 'cycle of hate', until either A) More people simply stop caring about the game's direction and their sole continuing motivation is a bit of mild, mellow socializing and reminiscing, or B) The GDB becomes viewed once more as a fair and valid forum to air one's legitimate grievances without risk of reprisal.
Most healthy games and for that matter, RL institutions, take 'B' for granted.
In other words, you can't have one side doing all the positive thinking and acting benevolent, while the other side, with all the actual power to enact change, remains either ignorant or malevolently obstructionist.

I wasn't talking about Arm though. Just in general is all. You can choose to be negative or positive every day and if you come here to bitch and moan about shit going on in game in the past year or something you're just doing it out of spite.

There has been evident corruption displayed by the game's top shot callers. When you combine that with heavy-handed censorship, you get...well, this shadow forum. So much truth in that post. I can remember more than a few occasions where I'd wanted to say something on the GDB only to decide against it because I knew there was a real possibility of it being censored or mocked. The day I discovered the shadow forums I felt that there had been a step in the right direction in regards to the freedom to express opinions and discuss topics without fear of reprisal. Though it doesn't really hit me in the kidneys with joy so to speak, it's nice. I imagine that for some more vocal, prolific posters it's far more of a big deal. We really should remember that we all have the love of the game in common and that the negativity should not be directed at the players. It should be directed at at certain bullshit policies and actions from staff. And sometimes Delerak. You killed the kanks, you bastard.
