He has made it clear many times over where he stood before, it would troll anyone with a bad opinion of the game. Well guess he dosent like this change and is only the other side of the fence for once.	Posted by IceM#0840 on Mar 11, 2014, 11:34:13 PM Quote this Post
They could still make the items BoP since nobody is anywhere near getting them atm. GGG banning all political discussion shortly after getting acquired by China is a weird coincidence.	Posted by Xavderion#3432 on Mar 11, 2014, 11:42:10 PM Quote this Post

Sure it is, If I was all White we would be friends and you would stick up for me, to me this is simple and pathetic. I post my real opinions dont give 1 shit what other people think about it. I have said it before, I could have joined the "gang" last year but you people make me sick. I could have easily joined the gang, but you people only beat down everyone that said any "REAL" feedback of the game. Dismissing anything and almost everything. I made a choice a long time ago to post real opinions the white knights be damned, and in the process u all made me post like a complete asshole most of the time because one eventually gets used to only responding to attacks. The problem is now its not just me, majority of the forum has topics that I onece created only to be pissed on, deal with it.	Posted by IceM#0840 on Mar 11, 2014, 11:42:47 PM Quote this Post

Whether you call those tones 'right' and 'wrong', 'us' and 'them', or 'me' and 'you', it is an utterly untenable, juvenile position. It's simply not worth responding to. Something must have gone wrong for these people not to realise that everyone is a spectrum, that we will agree on some things but not others, that anyone can be wrong, and anyone can be right. Each situation that arises requires fresh judgment. At the heart of the matter, declaring someone completely 'white' or 'black' in terms of their position is to display strong ignorance to the complexities of what it is to be human. I cannot but pity such people. __ My position remains clear, and tightly bound (all puns intended) to the last few sentences of my main post: I'm not saying PoE should have Binding; it's clear to me that GGG don't want that and fair enough. I am saying that PoE should not have items that are inspired by games that do. It is neither against GGG nor for them; it is merely an expression of concern that they may have fucked up in this case. Not the first time, won't be the last. Charan I have never cared what you think, from day 1 you had a sig belittling anyone that didnt agree with you, you post on the forums more then you play the game, you donated tons of money and are a celebrity on the forums almost, yet have less game experience then myself. I know that you are not a complete white knight, but if oy actually put time in like alot of the people that complain do, you outlook would be completely differnt. I have money myself you status dosent impress me. Last edited by IceM#0840 on Mar 11, 2014, 11:49:08 PM	Posted by IceM#0840 on Mar 11, 2014, 11:47:43 PM Quote this Post
" IceM wrote: I could have easily joined the gang, but you people only beat down everyone that said any "REAL" feedback of the game. That's bullshit. If someone gives good negative feedback, I say 'good feedback' even if I don't agree with it. 'Us people' only beat the constant QQers down who suck at giving feedback. Most of them aren't even interested in giving feedback, they just want to vent and try to find like-minded whiners who are willing to jump the bandwagon.

I'm really disappointed that something like these gloves is going live. Granted, I'll probably never see a pair, but their in no shape, form, or way balanced. GGG went to all the trouble to nerf Leech, then throws these gloves into the mix, with ZERO drawbacks? I don't even know what to say. I honestly wouldn't be surprised though with this outlash if they get nerfed before a single pair is able to drop. The legacy stuff on standard is getting old.

Dont think so, I have put real time into the game. I am not just a whiner, I have said many times the good parts of the game along with the bad parts. Problem is all the bad parts seem to be GGG's priority and what I like about the game continues to dwindle. Actually all the bashing from the white knights to myself and many others by the same group of people over the last year, if not longer, has made the problems I have had compounded. White knights dont help the game, they only fuel a person's rage, making a person that has problems with game play design, have out right disdain for the community and eventually the game as well.

There's obviously a problem on both sides. The ridiculously negative attitude of 'your' side doesn't help the game much either. And I'm not really much better than you when it comes to judging people and classifying them into strictly black or white, but I never claimed the opposite ö_ö GGG banning all political discussion shortly after getting acquired by China is a weird coincidence.
