On one hand, I don't seen schild as ever having been a SOE fanboi. On the other hand, no MMO (and only some games) get my money without some kind of trial. Even if that trial is buying it from EB games.

Wow, that is some amazing crack you are smoking.  Can you introduce me to your dealer?

As an assist for your reading comprehension:

SOE stands for Sony Online Entertainment. ie Everquest. Everquest 2. Star Wars Galaxies. Etc.

Not Sony Computer Entertainment. Those of the Playstation. That's SCE. SCEA/SCEE/SCEJ. He's the world's biggest fanboi for that arm of the company. That's not the Smedtown SOE.

You must have missed the 100+ page thread that started when schild was exposed to the SWG NGE before it came out and declared it Robot Jesus.

No, I remember that. I was pretty sure it helped him learn his lesson. Wasn't that also about 18 months ago now? I'm also not sure if it made him a SOE fanboi, or someone who was easily suckered by friendly devs. Did they fly him out to that, too, or was he in Houston for some other reason anyway?

Anyway, if he were a SOE fanboi, he'd be all over POTBS, EQ1/2, still hard for SWG, and possibly even Vanguard and MXO. I'm not seeing any of that, currently.

For fuck's sake. I'm defending schild. Please stop.

Okie dokie.  After playing Pirates of the Caribbean, I realized I wanted to play this for reals.  So I bought the game.

Azazel, don't feed the troll.

Once again, I did not resub to SWG, all the other people that think READING IS HARD did.

Meh, whatever. I've been over this countless times. Clean server, no lag, game handled perfectly, and even then - No CD No Sub.

The environment I wrote about was not indicative of the SWG that it was launched... into (?). Anyway, whatever, apparently people think I'm an SOE fanboi. I should stop wearing that cape that says SOE fanboi.

Just to show that you're not full of shit.

You know how it goes, if you make accusations, be prepared to back them up. That kind of thing. The stuff we teach elementary schoolkids.

If you walk into a physics convention and shout "I don't believe this thermodynamics stuff, someone prove it to me" you'll get the same response I'm about to give:

I'm supposed to care enough about some guy on the internet that I should spend my time searching forums for proof of something that everyone else here already knows to be the truth?

You must spend most of your time disappointed if you really think your opinion is that important.

Actually, he's saying don't be an accusatory punk without any support to back up your claims.

I like my modified response better. :)

And, uhh.. again I'll ask:

Why?

EDIT:  And for the record, it took a month for me to troll you into a justifying your SWG review yet again, so I really do consider this to be a fail.  I'm out of practice.

Cool, so a bunch of frontin' bullshit, no balls to back up your claims, a straw man, and some weak, weak smack talk.

Well, I still do enjoy this game, and actually am playing multiple classes, on different servers, enjoying it in small doses, and not grinding myself or trying to burn out... but the buddy key program and recent changes plus server merges isn't helping... So:
