Agreed
The reality of this forum is..
A) negative comments can kill a product
B) positive comments can prolog a product
As someone who wants to see CoD make it
I think it is important for the newcomers to this forum to know the difference between a real and false negative comment.
And by newcomer I mean, not only the people who have recently joined and post from time to time, but all the people out there that recently purchased CoD, or are thinking about it but have not joined the forum and only read what is in it. You know the types, people with jobs and kids and such that only have a few minutes a week to check up on the status of the game and have no interest let alone time to post anything
With that said
Can you imagine the impression a new comer would walk away with if they were to see a typical Tree_UK post, and all of Tree_UK supports agreeing with him.. That is to say a post where NO ONE disagrees with him. Chances are that newcomer will probably walk away with a view that this game is doomed.
That is one of the reasons I question statements like Tree_UK.. To provide some BALANCE!!
There is another
I belive if you ask people to explain, in more detail, what it is they are basing their statements on
I think that in the process of doing so they will realize how little of what they said is based on facts and how much of it was based on emotions
Sadly.. Most never take up the challenge
Why?
Well human nature for one, where:
Code:
CASE 1) Most start to, realize their response is emotionally driven, but are too proud to admit they are wrong.
CASE 2) Are pissed off at the devs for <insert reason> and just want to make trouble for the devs
There are more, but most fall into one of these two categories.
As for CASE 1, There is a chance these types will eventually be adult enough to admit they were wrong
As for CASE 2, There is no helping or chancing the mind of those types, they are pissed and will remain so.
Its a dream I know!
But as long as we keep in clean and follow the rules there is no reason we can not exchange ideas and points of view in this forum!
