Ah, forums. Once again we wade right in and introduce a few of the best gems from various internet forums I frequent for the week. Better keep an eye out folks – there’s some real treasures out there to be found if you are looking for real, intelligent, mature discussion.
For some of the rest, you can come here! What do we have this week, I wonder…
“community managers, tho they have authority, are just like us. in a neighborhood, they could just as easily be your friendly neighbor. i do see ayase do it, and tamat, though very sloppy, is trying to join in. and about a community manager’s job, it’s to lead the community;it’s part of their job to be persecuted, we did it to brother christ when he amassed a small community of people with sand for brains. i hope you understand what i’m trying to say and is no way blatantly disagreeing with you. i just didnt like how your post came off as if you have balls made of gold.”
By God, I would like to see someone with balls of gold. Imagine the marketing opportunity! Still, it’s glad to see that someone thinks that community managers have to (literally) take a lot of shit every day, just like….Christ?
“What the fuck does becoming a “much better gamer” mean anyway? that he’s got better at grabbing his own ankles, that he supplies his own lube?”
I honestly thought it was more like “playing, practicing, and learning mechanics”. But I suppose other people have other methods for getting better at games. If lube is essential to your gaming habits, who am I to judge, right?
“Because I wasted 50 bucks on this game so now I’ll squeeze whatever meager fun out of it I can. I’ll write whatever I want wherever I damn well feel like it, especially if it makes neckbearded fanboys squeel in impotent rage. Besides, aren’t most of you SO BUSY! with all of Aion’s jampacked awesome endgame content to not have time to post?”
Well, at least fun is in what you make of it. I guess making fun of people who play a game is free, and is much better than making fun of yourself for wasting money on it. In this economy, folks, we all have to be able to tighten our belts and get some entertainment where we can, right?
Do you have a gem you’ve seen around the ‘Net? Drop a line my way – I’ll give you credit for the post so you can be mildly famous among the near-100 subscribers I have on this small little blog.
