Still better than Red Ventures where admins just rubber stamped suspensions.
The developers asked unhappy players to leave negative review, hence the review bombing.
Yeah, this was a huge controversy at the time. It was near the height of WoW's popularity (on the tail end of it). Basically, in 2010 they had a system called "Real ID" which was a way for players to be friends between Blizzard games. The system was only for "real" friends who were allowed to know each others' real names.
It worked fine. Some of my IRL friends and even a few online ones were on my list.
The problem was that Blizzard wanted to "reduce toxicity" on the forums by forcing people to use their Real ID profile in order to post at all on the public forums.
This was very unpopular. People were extremely angry right away. The community managers tried to calm people down by pointing out that knowing someone's real name "wasn't a big deal," so in a show of good faith, they shared their real first and last name.
Almost immediately, this poor individual was subject to credit card applications, pizza deliveries, doxxing, etc.
Shortly after that, Blizzard walked back the decision.
I have no idea why people post troll posts from Twitter. Majority of them are just bots or dudes who have no life. Im sure theres the odd nutter out there who genuinely believe what they are saying but why give them a platform on here lol?

addddd the wnba realized their mistake.
Pirates was better before they turned all the audio into "Where's CAPTAIN Jack Sparrow!? Have you seen CAPTAIN Jack Sparrow!? We're looking for CAPTAIN Jack Sparrow!
They can flag the negative reviews for being "offtopic" and have them not visible by default.
They don't have any reason to drive engagement. Gamefaqs could have a million daily message board users and it wouldn't make them much money. Message boards are dying and are only viable if they're not for profit or are treated as a side benefit attached to something profitable like Steam. Unlike other forms of social media you can't data mine message boards, and owners are liable for toxic users. The hot new thing is killing all your forums and telling everyone to go to Discord, this is what Ubisoft and a few other publishers have done.

You need to condense your s***
I only have six pages
Pirates is better
I don't care one bit about clubs or bars, but if a theater had a no-phone policy I'd go see every film they showed. Yes, every one, just to show my support.
Fuck Tizzy, that guy a piece of shit
yall are straight up bad at poker lmao
you make it very obvious you've never played a high stakes game
Lmao, here's my quote buddy:
Why does no one here know how to read lol? I said you can empathize with those people specifically. Just don't be cringe and conflate 2 completely separate issues. One is significantly more valid than the other.
People? Are you talking about Fandom? Well from their PoV boards are useless, it's the guides that attract visitors and ads revenue not the boards.
People? I only remember the banner party guy.
I could see defending Sony if people had been illicitly avoiding the requirement and Sony was cracking down but the warning being what it was and a "click past and forget it" makes it feel like it wasn't a serious threat/warning.
It's especially scummy they sold the game to regions that they had to know wouldn't be able to get a PSN account. Unless they truly just make exceptions for those countries which proves the whole requirement is entirely arbitrary and has no basis in any safety or technology mandated reasoning
Won't speak for anyone else but for me it's less that I'm taking Sony's side and more shaking my head from how embarrassing other gamers are acting. Hits the front page of /r/all and it's all these people freaking out, people in this topic making references to comic books, all the review bombing and screams of "HOLD THE LINE FOR DEMOCRACY," etc.
It's not the first time a game has required you to sign up for their own service and it's not going to be the last. The way people are acting online it's like they think they're taking a hardline stance to prevent genocide instead of a company doing what companies always do.
It doesn't help that these fans are also spamming in other communities, mostly just copy and pasting large comments from other people. It's not "oh think of the poor billion dollar company" and more "these people are having meltdowns acting like children cause they were told they can only play with their new toy if they wash their hands first"
If they said not needing A PSN ID was temporary, then I dont see how anyone would act so surprised
What exactly does that have to do with you? My main point still stands, that if you're not in one of those countries, it's a non issue.
I imagine Steam is not very happy with all this. Imagine the number of refund requests they must be processing.
It's one fucking game! Shut the fuck up.
Thats DToast that did that, not Fandom. I realize most here equate them as one and the same, but its a mistake to do that.
I assure you, Fandom doesnt give 2 shits about you personally and hasnt earned any slack. Toast, however, is good people that does hear people out, so put the gratitude where it belongs.
I had to look up who Patrick warburton was, but honestly a pretty good one. Definitely rather have his voice than Gilbert Godfrey's.
What do you dislike about fandom? Personally besides the overwhelming amount of ads Im cool with them. Gamefaqs is a site that allows 13 year olds, frankly lot of the boards shouldve gone with the adult content on there.
Angel Reese has more followers than Caitlin Clark...
Nope. That's not how it works.
Your wife and kids don't get money in 10 years.
You have to check your phones in on arrival. If you're seen with one later, you are kicked out.
It is not. When inflation goes down that means the price in which things are rising slows down
A reversal in the price of goods is deflation.
And do you think inflation going down means that prices go lower?
What do you think inflation means?
I vote for the president who's policies I think are better. Not only fits Trump suck, but I think the Biden admin policies are better than Trump's. That's my standard, does this candidates policies lead the nation closer to where I think we should be going than the other candidate.
Inflation is down.
School staff aren't super human and this is the kind of behavior they're dealing with. And this isn't like 20 years ago where parents were supportive of teachers and were active in disciplining their children at home so that they were cooperative in school for teachers. The lawyer is demanding the world here.
I would like to see her bring a sledgehammer and break it to pieces, then throw it in his face.
Day 22:
What did the schizophrenic bookkeeper say?I hear invoices6/10, not bad.
What is the glicemix index of a sugar free tapioca pearl?
I actually bursted out laughing.
This. Holy shit that changes the context so much.
Example 1:
According to some Hindu nationalists, the Vatican originated as a Vedic priesthood (Vatican sounds similar to Vatika, you see) but at some point was misappropriated by Christians.
The only one I've seen that actually makes sense (from a tinfoil standpoint), and is a very obscure one, is that these are actually black magic curses, because in order for such curses to work, the sorceror has to inform the victim what he intends to do to them. (This falls apart with the 2004 Indonesian Tsunami, since plenty of the victims never consumed media.) This is why some hurricanes have pentagrams for hurricane eyes (they were created by the gubmit weather control machine, BTW)
Honestly, if not for all the people overreacting and closing their accounts, this has been a positive change. People have been on better behavior (generally,) hornyposting has been abolished (thank God), and now only the smartest, chillest topics are created.
Raise, that way maybe he'll raise again. If I go all in, he'll probably fold and I'll only get his $10,000 bet. If I call I only get his $10,000 bet.
Does this count as politics? I'm genuinely unsure
That's not a messageboard, little buddy.

yes, since at least 2019. so today's poll is just a coincidence.
Not to be that dude, but I feel like this is why we have climate change now lol
5 mil now, put it in a high-interest account, live very comfortably off of the interest payments.
