Kickstarter Update #85 - Release approaches / New Playable

I did not know that. Not been posting as much as I should have been, and I am also tragically easily distracted by negativity, much to my shame.

What worse sin(s) is(are) here like (unto) this?

Pure Miriam  Don't waste any more valuable time and digital ink in this nonsense, most of the users in this forum have already done everything possible to explain to him that Kickstarter is a bet and a risk , so sometimes things may not went as one would like, and don't worry: he's harmless (for now), just ignore him and let it continue with his"crusade.", so don't try to reason with him again, he's a lost cause.

Btw, great analysis as always.

With all due respect, Mike, this doesn't help either.

browren has basically been on a insult and defamation campaign against 505 in these forums non-stop since the Linux version got cancelled.

He's entitled to his opinion, people are entitled to agree or disagree with him - sympathize with him, even - but he's not entitled to hate on 505 non-stop every time there's an update. It's not as if we don't know how he feels, and there are separate threads for that.

At the end of the day, he's not here simply share his thoughts on the project - he's in the forums to spread hate on the game, and hopefully sour people on it to undermine its chances of success.

This attitude is the ultimate show of disrespect to you and every other backer who's spent time and effort cultivating a positive environment where people can agree to disagree.

True, many otherwise respectful members of the community have responded negatively to him, as well - but only because of his own hostility to the project. He may not use vulgar language, but calling 505 thieves is not exactly being respectful either.

Bottom line, if mods want to ban someone, ban him.

There, I said it.

It would not be suppressing someone for feeling cheated and expressing it - his conduct has gone far beyond that. There is ample justification to do it if you so choose, on the basis of him showing disrespect to the entire community through his conduct.

Now, I'm sure he'll proceed to quote each and every last sentence in this post and go on about how the cheaters are 505 and they're the ones showing disrespect to the customers, etc.

I'll ignore him, because what he wants is attention. I suggest everyone ignore him as well.

I'm also cognizant that this post might get me in trouble, as well, but I've seen and had enough at this point. Mods need to step up and do their job without trying to be "fair to both sides" - the one that's full of spite and the one that's just looking forward to the game -  or I'll gladly leave these forums myself.

saberwolf94 I knew Hayter was playing Zangetsu, I was referring to his VO sounding different in the demo I played last year, but I think I'm just remembering it differently. I have been playing MGS3 more recently, so my ears are re calibrated.

Amen!

I know that at least for me seeing him here trickles down on the whole atmosphere of this place and makes me not want to visit anymore. This has gone way beyond a “trolls gonna troll” situation and nothing and no one has been able to reason with him and he won’t stop, he’s been very clear on that. I also wish he was dealt with once and for all, there’s no reason why mods should put up with this. I know this place has always been about trying to be inclusive and accept all opinions but there has to be a limit and enough is enough. 

But hey that’s just my opinion. 

And my axe.


Sidenote, wow, Browen or however it's spelled, is still at it on here? Maybe I didn't take long enough a hiatus to work on my home, after all.....Anywho....Crate Boss is the true mastermind of the events in Bloodstained and we're just the pawns in it's sick little game of pick up sticks.

I don't want to ban ANYONE, even temporarily. Why do I even need to be the one to address this? Why can't 505 ban him? Because it's easier to ignore him than to ban him and give him more legitimate reason to say something like, "first they refused to talk to me for months, then they ban me."

I don't even disagree with browren's complaint. He SHOULD get a refund. As should all Linux/Mac backers. It's his right to complain, but those complaints have been heard and it's time to understand that nothing good will come from browren spending so much time here complaining without getting a resolution (that he wants or not). If that resolution is banning him, let 505 do it.
