most threads defending this game : V - Skyrim

Most "praise" threads are actually complaining the complaints threads, so........

People just can't post a thread that only praises the game. They always have to say like "There are too many negative threads." before starting the praising part.

i disagree. i have enjoyed the cool screenshots threads, or song covers. but these are drowning behind the repetitive complaints.

in a perfect world yea. but these people will post in a nasty way to vent so a complaint forum sounds more appropriate no?

Would be nice to see a more positive atmosphere around here yeah but then complainers would complain about about feeling isolated and pushed out of the way and while that might be some other companies tactics, I don't think it is Bethesda's. :shrug:

Free speech and all that.

You cant limit people's expectations. Why would you be disrupted with the game when somebody voices his/her concerns? If you love the game you love the game, its simple. Is it because when somebody points out a flaw you didnt know it was there and that now you see it? Just curious.

Can't make people more realistic, educated or coherant either. Br patient and they will fade away to complain about the next big thing and the saner will remain.

People complaining about the game are complaining *about the game*.

People complaining about the complaints and the people complaining are not posting regarding the game. They are posting about the complaints and the people, not the game.

If all you are doing is ranting about the negative threads in the forum, the thread will get locked as off-topic, and usually end up being condescending, derogatory, insulting, and rather flamey as well.

If you don't want to deal with the complaints, ignore the threads. It takes far less effort to ignore something than to post about it.
