    True colours Simon...shameful. The guy was being honest and felt that he was getting the shaft from Nordeus. And all you can say is basically: "get the **** out". Nice. Classy.

    GTFO Craig, you're not in a position to throw 'shameless' or sarky 'classy' insults at me

    The guy has made two identical posts essentially trying to advertise to people to quit the game. And why? Because he spent some money and didn't sweep all before him. My heart bleeds

    I was harsh because if he wanted to complain, then his first post did so. If someone starts to spam the forum board with the same comments, they'll get my short shrift

    Mate, just because a guy puts a post TEN times all over the board doesnt mean you can lower yourself and tell him to sling his hooks in a less classy way. Seriously, he wants people to know his experience and feelings on the matter and he has every right to. If you want to flame someone, you open yourself up to the same thing while lowering your standards.

    As this is a forum where people have the freedom to express whatever they want, within reason of course, you also have the right to do so, but dude, that was a bit low.

    On reflection, my post was a little bit '4am harsh', so for that I apologise - the general point still stands though, freedom of expression is one thing but certainly ten posts on the same negative subject destroys the forum for users who enjoy the game and conversation about the game

    Two is probably not that excessive on the other hand...

    Mate, I always try to show respect unless the guy is a total assclown. I am not better than you: I have my own faults and that what makes me human.

    There are a ton of assclowns on here and I have to pick and choose which ones to address with smartass posts. I have made it to an age where Flaming on forums is juvenile and worse than sarcasm. I know you are smarter than that and hey, it happens. I think I lost it once on here and had to apologize.

    You and me both tend to post frequently and not just crap either. Often we tend to disagree but at least it is with respect. Others on here tend to let anger and frustration rule their minds and they tend to get banned or ridiculed.

    Believe it or not, I am interested in this game and I want to see where this is going....like a 100 car pile-up on the autobahn. I just know that not all things are above board. I cant prove it, but I have the gut feeling. It does tend to diminish the enjoyment of the game, but I put the fault at the feet of Nordeus, for being so negligent in their actions of addressing legitimate customer concerns.

    and yes, 10 posts is a bit much for anyone to want to read, but still a much better read than that assclown that posts adverts and spam....Now that is a POS.

    I have made it to an age, or level of ignorance, where I'm not even sure what flaming is. So I'm guessing I 'flamed' by being antagonistic? And how is that different from trolling?

    Sarcasm, by the way, is a wonderful thing - it just doesn't translate too well over the internet

    Oh and by the way, being 'honest about how you feel' and 'the truth' are often different things, and ultimately only one matters. We live in a world where it seems to be enough to say 'because that's how I feel' - you can't deny how someone feels, but it doesn't make them right to feel that way
