They say a big thank you for nothing much really, just some broken crafting system (just look at other threads on mobo) and some boring p2p quest.
Can we at least here on the vault agree that people like these should be publicly hanged, their homes and families burned down to ashes?

No, it wouldn't. All it would mean is the bosses at WB would be able to afford a Maserati or Bugatti instead of "just" a Ferrari or Lamborghini.

OK I have reconsidered my stance. They should also be raped by spiced bonoboes before getting burned down to ashes.

Can we loot the houses first? They might have cool stuff.

Highly doubtful.

Still no pics Princess?   

What? you going to try and bullshit about fancy cars when you can't even afford the singles to post a picture of fistful of dollars?  Sure.. we want your poor broke ass opinion, you lousy 3rd world Puerto Potty. Only time you have sat in the front seat is when you were giving a gringo tourist a Handy from the passenger seat. 


Oh and before you try to post some comeback that will fail....     Still no pics Princess?  Bwahahahahahhahahhahahhaha!

It already did "get you" Princess! and it does every time you try to brag about cash, high living,.... etc nothing more painful for a weak liar such as yourself than to have his lies exposed again and again and again.... Every time you can't come up with the pics Flav showed how reminds everyone how you have been busted and couldn't back it up.

IT. IS. TOO. FUNNY.

And the way you act and try to hide from it is pure gravy.


Still no pics Princess?   

Still no pics of all that imaginary money Princess?  ROFLMFAO

I think we'd all be fine if you posted a picture of a few large denomination bills and something to prove you didn't just google it. Say... five or six good sized bills, with the vault forum in the background?

Seems like anyone can do that.

Even that is mostly Turbin's fault. You are right that some is a shift in gamer psychology, with "gaming with people I already know" surpassing "making new friends" somewhere in the early 2000s, but "making new friends" didn't disappear entirely, and they could make it much easier.

For example, a power gap discourages grouping with strangers unless you have a way to judge their power. It isn't fun for most people to be either carried through or to do all of the work. Most people who would group would do it to be part of a team. Power creep creates a wide power gap between players of similar levels, so a random group of similar level players is much more likely to be painful for some or all of them. That's Squarely on Turdbin's shoulders.

Another example is the tools they provide. They choose to work on new systems instead of improving the systems people use. What if the Friends list were more than a simple notepad like affair? It wouldn't be hard to come up with a system that shared information between your own characters, with friends you chose, in your guild, etc. And allow more than 50 characters of text - store rankings on play style, persnality, etc. what if they had a way to scale your character so you could run with a wider group? Or tools to deal with griefers? That would do much more to encourage grouping than yet another crafting system with a difficult grind.

And some of their choices are downright hostile to random grouping - look how long it took them to address the party death penalty, or Bravery bonus. And even when they finally addressed it, the answer was lame. You have to run to an NPC and pause it, and remember to un-pause it after? We're running on a compter ffs, just automatically pause and un-pause.
