Thank you for the heads up.dzorro said:
Interestingly enough, I was aware of this thread and almost responded. Then, as I am wont to do, I asked myself "to what end, and is it worth the effort?". I could not come up with a valid reason to spend an hour or more articulating a compelling diatribe in a reply.. so I mentally made a note of the participants and elected not to engage.
Best,

Personally whenever I see one guy who dosen't like M&B, or any mod made for it, I look at the 10000+ people who actually love it to bits, and would just say "If you don't like it, go play another game, nobody is forcing you to play this."

Good call. People like that can rarely if ever actually be reasoned with, and even if he was one of the few that posted something like that without actually thinking it through, so many other people have jumped on it that now it is just the same points being repeated, with the occasional needless insult. No point in getting involved.

hehe yeah. i replied to him and he just picked out a part of what i said and used it as if that was the whole thing i said. What really made me laugh was that he thought this: "M&B mods are all the same ****ty stuff just **** it" was constructive criticism.
I'm going to stick with not feeding trolls from now on.

It's a difficult thing to resist, but yes, it is never worth the effort, even if they aren't just trolling for fun and actually have some kind of mental block about how to give suggestions / criticism.
"Don't feed the troll".
I agree to that.
BUT!!! but, but, but... People have a nasty habit of flameraping everybody who speaks critically. You see it in the M&B forums, on youtube, everywhere.
We do have a certain degree of freedom of speech, and as long somebody are not trolls, they should be allowed to point out things they don't like, og suggest things that are against the opinion of the majority, without beeing burned on a stake.
You are right that this guy seems like some kind of whiner who wants M&B to be an indie-version of oblivion. But he does have a point when he says that native and many mods have a quite weak storyline. And so what?
about the whining: enjoy your meal
but don't let the core disappere too.
