Not trying to have anything both ways. I’m not one of the anti-AI brigade. I’ve never complained about folks using a bit of AI to brush up or spell check their writing, John.

What I was really getting at was his making up a word to try and sound ‘intelligent’. Just struck me as funny.

I see you’re frustrated with the game and lashing out at the players and devs about it.

The game’s development does indeed seem to be struggling with the current crew in charge. I get frustrated when a game I enjoy isn’t living up to its potential. However, dismissing the developers as “losers” or the player base as “idiots” doesn’t help address the issues.

I prefer to give the developers my opinions, but they apparently don’t listen to constructive criticism – like discussing balance problems, design flaws, or community issues – is more likely you could promote positive change by voting in a CSM who listens to you.

You seem passionate enough about the game, you should consider sharing specific issues or engaging with the community in a more positive way. The old moral addage about this is you will attract more bees with sugar than you do with vinegar.

You’re saying this to a guy who got banned from the forums for:

Is it your opinion, my words are wasted? It seems you read my words, others will too. I am sure that player can see them as well. However, I don’t think anyone at FC will bother to read or take it to heart. That is where I fear, all our words fall upon deaf ears.

On him, yes. But not in general. They were good words, never wasted. If the intended recipient doesn’t heed them, then still good to put that out there.

Fenris, for their reasons, don’t read the forums it seems. Maybe that will change at some point when all this superficial one-liner-emoji communication style runs its course and people will, again, want more out of it.
