daft Posted June 13, 2001 Share Posted June 13, 2001 Is it just me or does CM have the happiest community on the net? Everyone seems to be getting along great. Was there ever any flamefests or anything like that here? Quite a contrast to the current WW2OL forum. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Panzer Leader Posted June 13, 2001 Share Posted June 13, 2001 Happy companies that make happy games make for happy communities. You won't see any of our tanks flying or getting knocked over by a breeze-wafting branch. We all play a well-made game, released AFTER all the bugs (well most) were taken care of. We have a dialogue with the owners and designers and we know what to expect and that when we get it, it will WORK. So, the two keys to success on the internet are: Quality Product Customer Support Whil the game you mentioned has vast potential, it is destroying both itself and all future attempts to do a similar game by the ineptitude of its designers, its lack of beta-testing, and the "Release it NOW attitude of its marketing partners." Big Time Software suffers none of those ills. Hence, a successful company and a happy community. Now, where's the milk and cookies? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

daft Posted June 13, 2001 Author Share Posted June 13, 2001 Honestly I wasn't trying to stir things up or anything, it was a genuine question. I really enjoy this forum and hope to do so for a while yet. So please don't BBQ this quite innocent Swede. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arzenal Posted June 13, 2001 Share Posted June 13, 2001 you guys have no idea how good you have it.. I am a total newbie to CMBO, and Im loving playing it. But my online life revolves around Unreal Tournament. And its a goddamn miserable community. Everyone flames everyone else all the time. Its a hatred fest. Its amazing that I still love the game so much Here everyone seems nice and no flame wars Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There was a "survey" done a while back on this forum, and the average age is around 35. (heh heh I quote my age here because it's more convenient, I don't have to look up the right answer.) :eek: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Triumvir Posted June 13, 2001 Share Posted June 13, 2001 Or just a muthalover? 8P The CM forum is amazingly well-behaved compared to USENET -- it's nothing to do with age because there are 40 year old wankers running around USENET trolling their hearts out. It's because we all know and love this game and its designers... GROUP HUG! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

boy_Recon Posted June 13, 2001 Share Posted June 13, 2001 I've always liked to think that the large English presence in the CM fraternity has inparted a more cultured, gentlemanly, and refined tone than one tends to find in the forums left to the colonials and Europeans.

Of course Ugly Americans are just as bad as Ugly Brits, but the idea that the denizens of that particular island (17th class system and 18th century plumbing notwithstanding) have a monopoly on culture and civility is silly.
