Just a general observation, not pointed at anyone!!!

Works also in conversations.

I have taken a course in "fanboi" speak, so allow me to translate.


"one can either post and prove to be a bit dense"

Translation: If you have any negative criticism even if it's posted in a non-threatening manner, you will be subjected to an onslaught of attacks on your intelligence because your hurting future sales of this game that isn't functioning properly.

"one can refrain from posting and stay in the shadow of doubt"

Translation: If you feel that you got ripped off for spending $50 on software that isn't usable for a year or two, then you lack the foresight to see how awesome this is going to be in 5 years. You should not complain and sit in silence, because your hurting future sales of this game that isn't functioning properly.

"Just a general observation, not pointed at anyone"

Translation: This is pointed at anyone that is not in my "fanboi" club, and has pointed out the fact the release was garbage and was a cash grab because they needed the money.

Hope that clears things up!

Thank you Force10,

I really appreciate that you made my point.

Btw, as you obviously don't know the meaning of the word "fanboy" (not fanboi), I'd refrain from using it in your place.

Let me help you out robtek.

1. fanboi
Someone who is hopelessly devoted to something and will like anything associated with their particular thing.

2. fanboi
Geek Term related to forum users who think a product/company/person can do no wrong.

"fanbois will not stop annoying other people until everyone they know is converted to their way of thinking."


Please refer to point number 1 of your post I quoted so you can avoid future embarrassment.

Force1o,

before you put your foot further in your mouth and prove my post #391 correct let me correct your misconception of the definition of a "fanboy".

A "fanboy" is a person who is not only devoted to something, but also can't find anything wrong with it.

This is where your misconception lays, as such a person still hasn't posted here, afaik.

I still have to read a post where the faults of CoD are denied, afaik there are none.

If you can't accept this, any communication with you is relly senseless and i'll refrain from continuing it.

Cheerio

Let me help you out....again. The word you are trying to spell is "really" not "relly"(lol...couldn't resist)

You might not fall into the exact definition of "fanboi", so what would you call somebody that tries to silence any negative discussion of your beloved (unplayable) sim?

When you come into the Crystal Ball thread that was created for "general moaning and complaints" by the mods and then say "one can either post and prove to be a bit dense, or one can refrain from posting and stay in the shadow of doubt." What are you hoping to accomplish?

I live in a Democratic country so I guess I'm spoiled with the ability read positive and negative views on products, politicians, etc. I don't know where everyone is from but maybe their desire to have only positive views be heard is a reflection on where they live.

So let me get this straight, your only allowed to post in this thread if your Crystal ball shows only gloom and doom.

You can post whatever you like, that's the point. Not just post whatever robtek likes or he will call you dense, see the difference?
