onrpg has definetly changed

[rhandorei]

ive noticed that a whole lot more of the members on onrpg have become a bit childish, not sure if this is in the wrong section or not but, i feel some ppl here need to hear this. Alot of ppl look at mmo's now and say "OOH GRAPHICS ARE GOOD SO IT MUST BE AWESOME!" and hype up the game more then it deserves. Then the game ends up being another clicking grinder. And then the process starts over again with the next game to come out. Also u guys need to make much better arguments, for example, why bash "wow" so much? Most of the arguments i see for wow are like, "ITS ANOTHER GRINDER AND IT SUCKS CUZ ITS WOW" i dont mind if a game gets bashed, but plz, whats so great about soem other MMO? Seriously? Say anotehr mmo is fun cuz u click on stuff and it dies or soemthing. Im not taking sides with WOW either. Im just sick of seeing rlly bad arguments. So plz have more logic to ur arguments plz, better arguments then soemthing like "GRAPHICZ SUCKZ LOLZ". And sorry for the wall of text.

A lot of Onrpg's members have always been pretty childish, there's not much anyone can do about that. :\
Good news about it though is that we always have something to laugh at around here.

[Meteo]

am I childish...? btw Age of Conan is awesome! I got to level 13 today =P
Pirates of burning sea is very fun too

[sathie]

Well since I've been reading* the boards at Onrpg it's always seemed a bit of a fight between people who like WoW and people who don't.

It doesn't seem that bad right now. I'd say the "X game is gonna rule!" hype is far worse than the WoW arguing. Most of the time people who say this are going on nothing more than screenshots, videos, and what the developer says the game is like. I think we can all agree that what we're fed by developers as "in game" is often just a lure to get people to play, and hope that they wont realise that promised features are missing.

Hype is far worse than WoW, because for most people it's far better to be surprised by a mediocre MMO than be let down by the same one because everyone on Onrpg declared it to be the bee's-knees without ever actually playing it.

As for logical arguments it's quite difficult to logically argue why you like something when someone else hates it, when it's often the features you like that the other person hates. It's just taste. Like our literal sense of taste, you often like or dislike the taste of something for no reason that you can explain to others. But yes, relating those likes and dislikes in a more adult way would be a start, wouldn't it.

thank you sathie and elazulblack, i completely agree with you that its fine to argue, hell i agrued in my first post, but i just hate it when ppl have rlly stupid arguments and attack the other persons opinion based off of rlly chidish ideas. I like arguing, just make it worth reading, i dont want a flame war, i want a debate. All i ask is for non stupid comments, unless its a joke, then yeh, tahts fine. Just hate it when ppl make themselves look like asses for no real reason.

[Meteo]

btw Age of Conan is rly different than all other mmorpgs
it's kinda like a console game, gfx is kinda like Elder Scroll: Oblivion

Pirates of burning sea is a little bit like voyage century but much much more detailed in every aspect. its fighting system is rly unique too
and awesome customization :3

I will give out some p2p mmo beta accounts on curse soon
when the beta account distribution system is implemented on curse.com

warhammer Online, age of conan, pirates of burning sea, hellgate london... u name it =)

back to the topic... I dun have much to say... just treat others the way u want ppl to treat you...
it's a forum, just dun flame others... I dun care about anything else much

[Meteo]

ya everybody knows WoW... but WoW is getting old...

[pseudonatural]

I think people are always looking for the next MMORPG and hyping it up because the market as it stands today is extremely homogenized. Every game is the same, and the formula that is being used today of grind, level, grind is not very fun.

Every game that's on the horizon promises to be something different, then it comes out and it's the same. You can't fault people for hoping.

As far as WoW goes, it is the MMORPG equivalent to the Evil Empire. It's what the frat boys play. It's what my not nerdy sister plays. It's what my roommates play. It's the most popular game. It's the mainstay of the genre. It's also p2p, and while it is high quality it still uses the same formula most of us have grown tired of.

I am always looking for the next game, because I like the social aspects of the MMORPG and the immersive nature of the platform. But like many of you, I am tired of the repetition and lack of innovation that plagues the genre.

So let's hear it for hope?

Well i can say that WoW suck because u cant really reach ur stat, ull be the same as other ppl .. so u cant really make the difference between the ppl, correct me if i am wrong, but thats what happened to me and thats why i stopped playing it, since i couldnt reach the stat on my own way . which is *** the fact that i will have the same stats as other ppl do.

hmm well ur arguing about ppl that just judges games by graphics,.. then if u dont pay attention to graphics . go play .. i dont know, tibia ?... sometimes i make post about how good its a game, ffor example shaiya , it doesnt have that nice graphics, but its gameplay is really good. , i love the pvp system , AND U CAN rEACH ur stat on ur own way

[karakter]

for the record guys, the Mabinogi Hype is no joke
Hyping mabinogi actually makes sense.

Its a well loved game

[Silentstorm]

For the record thier is a way to stop immaturity. But it takes more proactive kicking ass moderators to do that.

[Stabkiller0]

This is the internet. Get over yourselves all you mature-freaks and go to a tech forum.I don't care if you spell poorly or make silly posts I won't judge. Maturity can kiss my ass. I love how they expect 14year olds to act like 16th century nobles.

Oh and calling someone ******ed on the internet is basically an oxymoron.

No you expect 14 year olds to act like 14 year olds. And not under developed 5 years olds with no parents. Guess thats too much too ask in your book huh.

I think it's the general tendency that hits MMOs. The past years we've seen a massive influct of teenagers and pre-teenagers.
So yeah childish ? for sure. But that's because they are kids.

Just my 2 cents.

Then punish them until they learn better. Ban them from the forums. It's never too early to learn to be at least some-what civil.

[Krunkmasta Flex]

i respect the op because he's a freddie fan.
i agree F2P's shouldn't be compared to P2P's
such as 2moons vs WoW threads,not very fair.

[Stabkiller0]

Yeah, pretty much. There raging hormones and the fact they would rather do something more productive than go on an internet forum means they are better than what we ask.

In fact they're more superior. How exactly do you call someone civil judging from letters from a post?

One of my best friends and best guys in the world happens to type like this everywhere "u all no what time it is ite?"

[tartan]

Lol now you know why I dont visit onrpg nearly as much as before.

[refraxion]

Truly agree with the OP.

That's why I rarely visit this site, tons of immature kids who don't know what a real game is and has nothing to back it up with, but WoW (Waiting on War? haha, the game isnt even out yet and they think it's a WoW killer.) No substance to back up their claims, pathetic.

[sircusa]

i understand what you mean but seriously this is a forum for discussion as long as its about games why not discuss it?

If we didnt have the idiots that say wow is the best game on the earth or say this game sucks cause of its graphics OR even hype about games that turn out to be shit...wouldnt the boards start getting boring? theres like 2-5 new threads a day 3 end up being about random stuff and 2 end up being something intresting...

i like this board cause the really dumb people are good to get a laugh out of and then the people who are like hella smart and have arguments about the dummest stuff is funny cause i like reading their flames.

all in all onrpg is fine.......even though it has changed alot

There's a lot more interesting than just flaming WoW like flaming every other game or discussion of new games. (There's Zu Online, Shaiya and other topics to discuss)

The thing is that a discussion wont change the ''problem''.

We have all been like ''hyped'' out guys. Its normal. its called joy and hope...

I doubt this thread was created to fix the problem. And I did point out that it's rather normal already <_< (I say that because you're telling me that... I think XP)
