Do you have any idea what a large part of the players on the server think of this forum?
Few people want to sign up on the forum and get involved in the factions because their in-game presence very often radiate of negativity, and that hostile negativity is so predominant on the forum too. Yesterday I told a guy that had saved up and was just about to buy a Storta that there was a cheap used one for sale here, and he answered me (like I was a total fool) that he wouldn't go on the forum even to save 30 million (and this is coming from a guy who's total net worth is 200 million).
At least the guy above is honest and don't try to silence discussions arrogantly. That makes him more of a rolemodel to me than most of the guys who seem to like to perceive themselves as such.
Then you see the point I am trying to make.
But why do I bother? I'm the ridiculed Keysword King of Gallia. Why would anyone listen to me? Why should I bother when all I get is like the above by Anaximander?
Alte was the one saying we Official Faction Leaders have to be rolemodels. His words. I called him out on not living up to them.
Now you all see? If we can't even get the forums to look decent, how the Hell can we clean up our acts?
But hey, I'm just that Kingdom Hearts guy, that guy who leads a struggling faction in a hated House. I'm just that guy who is sick of the bullshit here and sick of the attitudes. The guy who is wasting his time trying to get people to at least act SOMEWHAT RESPECTFUL to each other.
The answer to why is simple.
I'm tired of you people living up to SWAT-OP's, Karlotta's, and other people's expectations of this place.
Stop being the Mos Eisley of the Freelancer.
I dare you all.
Edit: And I said I'm no saint. I'm not a rolemodel like I should be. But I at least try.
