I'm casually observing the collapse of this game, at the same time that they just banned someone for saying some words. Think about it. Even if the poll is favorable, you can see from this thread, at least 10-20% of people here saying GGG overstepped. How many players is that? 1000? 2000? 10000? The game is losing players like crazy right now, for all sorts of reasons, why you can't let it slide and just deal with the fact that people are upset about your vision? Why compound the issue? Having said that I realize how most of you feel about POM, I'm surely talking to people who don't care about this at all. I'm sort of just pointing it out to you so you might think about it. I think you'll be ok if I do that. I don't think I'm harming you by talking words, am I?	Posted by Soulsucka#5124 on Aug 26, 2022, 6:47:52 PM Quote this Post
I love pathofmath as much as the next man but he shouldn't say bad word about the guy who owns the game he's playing lol	Posted by CAPSLOCK_ON#7907 on Aug 26, 2022, 6:48:01 PM Quote this Post
Doomerism The worst part is that it takes a long enough time for you to be proven wrong that I just have to say "OK" and smile.

So sure, that is one person who was banned. I'm sure that affects him. Now everyone is sort of implying that GGG has every right to do it, but forgetting that THEY also will suffer the consequences of their actions. If someone out there who does not even play the game, decides to make a video talking about how GGG bans their own most dedicated players for badmouthing... how does GGG stop that? If only even 10% of the playerbase doesn't like this decision, then that is like 10,000 players who don't like it. GGG could have just let this slide, but no, they chose consequences. Meanwhile, I'm so glad that you feel that it was all worth it to ban one guy who is going to end up being twice as famous after this whole thing, and also probably get more twitch viewers in the end. You know how the internet works, and so does GGG. No one should be surprised when there is a backlash to this. They chose this. i cant decide if the ban was ok or not. not trying to defent ggg or that streamer. when its comes to choose a site i allways pick my site ^^in fact did not even know him til this ban. what i try to say is action have consequences that counts for us all no exception. and most probly we will never know if the ban was ok or not. but when i call ppl names and other stuff i have to expect consequences.

"The collapse of the game" I'm not uninvested in this game. I want it to have a future. Your prophecy is offensive to me. DOOOOOOM DOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOM It's laughable and I've gotten so many good laughs today from the screamers. What is the value of my own life when it is taken from others so easily?

But yeah you asked nice, so I'm just going to leave this thread now capslock. I really don't want to ruin the game for anyone who loves it. I promise you that. I'm just going to say one thing: I'm not the bad guy here. Neither is POM. This all started when they put in archnemesis, and decided their old game sucked. A lot of people liked that old game and they created a reality where no one can go back and play that game. That is the real issue here, everything else is just the latest 10 minute drama. I hope you guys find something to enjoy in this league, I really do.	Posted by Soulsucka#5124 on Aug 26, 2022, 7:11:23 PM Quote this Post
