So I visited Reddit... Compared to PoE Forums

I'm not sure if the majority of the population of the world is single because reddit is really more for those that have nothing better to do then talk about how awesome someone is while whoever posted could be a freaking serial killer. I have my pictures posted on Instagram, not afraid to let people know who I am... Nothing to hide. I can't say the same for some people... Some people are just freaking weird.

You are weird also but fun at the same time.


I check reddit and often I find interesting information with a lot of other less informative stuff. Honestly on the forum there is no difference a part the qq.

There is a lot more qq on the forum
Have fun! And go buy my stuff...

This forum is essentially dead to me. The changes to the forum policy are pie-in-the-sky moderation style with a heavy hand. I know plenty of people in-game who are of the same mindset.

Reddit might be hostile, but at least the conversation there isn't trimmed into oblivion by moderation...it's trimmed into oblivion by users upvoting/downvoting good/bad stuff. Something this forum could desperately use....

For me, this forum currently only has the following uses:

- online access to my characters
- store fronts
- patch notes (usually get posted on reddit)
- the rare news post (that can be gotten on reddit)
- beta forums (short lived and frankly mostly useless)

So in essence, I could abandon this forum completely save poe.trade storefronts and online character access. I think I might even be able to do the storefronts without this forum anymore.

I'm only in this thread out of sheer luck, and a link from reddit for a different topic.

Reddit is massively superior for me. Oh yeah, and GGG actually post there, unlike here. The only thing they post here are essentially official announcements. You'd think they would communicate at least with thier beta players....nope.

To each his own.

There's somewhere else you can go now too http://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/1288967. It doesn't currently support store fronts but will in the near future (alongside a scraper similar to poe.trade). There's only one mod there and he has a full time job, two dogs, and a girlfriend so he couldn't moderate that much even if he wanted to, which he doesn't. :p

Why are you advertising in my thread or for that matter hijacking it? Isn't that against forum rules?

I didn't mean to hijack anything, I thought it was a pretty relevant response to the post I was responding to. Feel free to call for someone to come and edit/delete/move my post if it upsets you....

It doesn't upset me, as of matter of fact out of the two years I've been on these forums you're the first I have reported. Granted you don't like the new moderation rules, you created a site etc... But to come into my thread be apart of it while you have this innate dissatisfaction with PoE forums doesn't slide with me... Again if anyone has common sense they would know exactly what you're up to.

Stop fueling the flames... If you don't like PoE forums stop being a hypocrite and advertising your site.., GGG can't really say what they really feel but I'm sure someone in the moderation team agrees with me... Hopefully.

I'll let moderation decide what to do... At least I have a little bit of dignity and respect... Regardless of the nonsense I post. This goes for anyone... I will call you out on it...

I think you're confused. I like the forums, I'm still here...... It's not like you can't use two websites at once. They serve different purposes. Now you're just derailing your own thread with total nonsense.

Oh, and they absolutely can say what they really feel. Chris has me on Skype and I've been trading emails back and forth with Bex for a fair while. I checked it out with Bex thoroughly before even making the damn site. They were very supportive, gave me permission to use their art, and there was no suggestion of anyone being salty about anything.

I'm not getting into this conversation, I know everyones antics... Especially yours. You're going to sit behind your PC and try to justify this conversation... Ha.. I don't think you have been paying attention to the rest of the community. And btw yes, since you offered please go ahead and remove your advertising unless...

Edit: everyone im confused LOL... 5:51am here in Florida probably!!! lol...
