Thread: I'm in the minority it seems...

    Default I'm in the minority it seems...

    I actually really like Evony, I think it's a great game.
    I've made some good friends in the Alliance I chose who have been very supportive and helpful.
    3 cheers for Evony!

    More people like Evony than one might think, readin' the forums.
    Problem is that people who don't like somethin' kick up much more of a fuss than those who do like it.

    no, many of us really do like Evony, just alot of us want to make it better as well. I have made some great friends in game, and here on these forums, but I do want to make things better. The trick is to come to your own decisions and see things how you want to. Unfortunately alot of anger is here, and insults fly around more then they should, but the community is fairly decent, its just there are people who know things can be even better. But yeah, I encourage you to stay around, and join in on some interesting discussions, just don't let people draw you into pointless conflicts.

    Well, I'm tired of these forums. Very little humor in them anymore. Adios all.

    That's kind of why I started this thread, I thought it'd be nice to see something positive for a change

    When you think about it, the Evony people haven't done much of anything wrong. Right and wrong being subjective matters, leads one to wonder what people truly think is "wrong" with Evony.

    What is right with Evony is it's a good game.

    I get your intentions and honestly do think it's a good thing you're tryin' to do...but I wouldn't be surprised in the slightest if/when the haters roll in and start spammin' up about how crap/unbalanced/unfair/borin'/crap [whatever] they think the game is until the thread gets locked... :/

    That's why you don't take the initiative against the haters. The things they say often have no backing, but it doesn't help Evony when people on these forums jump on them as they do. Overall, if we just politely point out the mistakes of their arguments while trying to "connect" to them, You can calm them down and make a friend in the process. To often anymore though we start attacking people right out of the gate, and it hurts things around here. Let them make the (insert word here) of themselves. Don't let them make yourself look like the (insert word here).

    I try that..hell, did it on another thread of this page..you can keep any discussion civil and then they wind up jus' commentin' that you're a loser/have bad grammar/noob or w/e else.

    I mean...s'not the end of the world, but they pretty much jus' voice their opinion and ignore all else. The majority (get that; not all) jus' don't want to hear anythin' else. As good as it is when some do, most of them jus' don't want reason.

    Sayin' that, I'm in no way tryin' to demotivate this thread and it's purpose....I jus' like to try and be realistic about my expectations..I mean...the thread next to this is called "This game is Stupid!!" so what should we really expect, here?

    Although, more i the spirit of the topic; w/ a lot of decent contributors in the Suggestion Forum, and (in my opinion it's definitely a good thing that; ) Thalin frequents those boards and often enough makes his own input, then w/ Age II jus' around the corner, I think that, w/ luck, we're lookin' at a serious of improvements, or in the very least somethin' to spice it up all the more.

    Edit: we should all get capes.

    Sadly this is common on pretty much any message board for pretty much any popular game. Most of the people who have problems with any aspect of it are very loud and rude and annoying and seem to think their grievance, legitimate or not, gives them free reign to troll and break rules. On the other side you have people who try to defend the game getting more and more frustrated and they start getting into flame wars and end up looking like typical fanboys. Everyone else gets stuck in the middle and eventually gets so sick of what's going on that they stop posting and all were left with is flaming and trolling.

    That's why we mods try to be more strict than usual in how we uphold the rules. Kinda like Batman in a way. Except most of us don't wear tights or have cool utility belts. Or capes. Well I have a cape but I don't wear it while modding. Usually.

    Ok I lost track of what I was saying.

    Short version: I'm giving you rep for this topic. I wish more people would be positive and patient. I apparently think I'm Batman.
