Real men have dicks, and balls too.

I could get a press pass, based on my writing still archived at Grim's, it doesn't actually make me any more press than you guys and your MMO fansite are.

My original question tho is whether this was gloating or actually wanting people to write "decent content" here or if it was gloating? Is this site becoming a commnuity submission "fansite", or if this place was actually putting more people on staff? It's not me taking anything you said the wrong way Schild, it's you not saying things clearly enough.
And who are you? wow 1683 posts that means you lurk forums alot, but other than that it means nada except you don't have a real life and spend all your time posting to forums.

Post counts don't exactly mean anything, but if we start comparing post counts, what's next? Us seeing who has a bigger dick? Or who can be the bigger dick?

I think you missed something at some point.  Schild has always encouraged community driven content. 

Why are you so angry?  Do you need a hug?

I think he was talking to people who have been around for previous discussions of this nature.  That's why he said "you know the drill".  If you do not in fact know the drill, you can safely assume he wasn't talking to you in the first place.

PS: You're a dick.  But I'll give you a hug anyway because you do sound like you need one.

I was responding about writing something, and the drill including a "press" title so you can get access to a game industry only thing is part of the reason why E3 is being "downsized". I may have known "the drill", but not cared about whatever "submission" thing you do here, but now that I know you let people impersonate press using community submissions I'm thinking it makes you less press, and more fansite to me. Maybe the conferences will want to know these things.

By the way, I first was asking if this was a "contest" where maybe Schild was giving away stuff, and was insulted for it. Then after one of your community members started, the mods and writers decided to join in. Maybe you should save those hugs for each other in your man love fest mentally masturbating all over the forums, posting to a forum all day, and insulting people makes you even less press, and twice as pathetic.

I'd say you all need hugs, with the way the hostility began here, but I wouldn't want you to get the wrong idea that I actually like you.

I was going to try to explain to taolurker exactly how the "hostility" began, but if I've learned anything from the internet it's that replying to a socially retarded troll never does anyone any good.  All in favor of a split-and-den?

Did it have something to do with his opening post's first sentence being an insult based on ignorance and an inability to understand context only to be followed by his second sentence where he comes off as an arrogant, self-righteous turd who thinks he should get hundreds of dollars worth of expenses if he blesses us with one of the "articles" he pumps out?

And split and den at your own peril, as he has stated half a dozen times he has some articles at Grimwell you could find if you scour the archives, therefore he is quite clearly a powerful man and could grind you into dust if it tickles his fancy.

One of the problems?  it's football weekend or something that week of Sept.  Nothing is available now, and nothing was available earlier (outside the convention days).  I booked my room in June, but still had to find another hotel near the airport for the Fri night I need before catching a continental wide haul ass flight home.  Meaning: its costs dough.  Buddy of mine who's coming with registered late and had some trouble finding a room anywhere's near the convention center for those days.  So again: it costs dough.

Sarcastic comedy with my asking questions mentioning I "write" isn't ignorance or not understanding context, and I don't see how was it arrogant? My second post might've been, defending my forum "history" to a guy named after orange cheese, but no the attacks didn't stop there, and the staff here joined in. Yah, but I'm the one who's being arrogant.

I may have mentioned "gloating" but, other than that I was making an innocuous joke, that led to flames from all involved (myself included). I had no expectation that my writings would be accepted here, nor would I even submit something, but if you think it's self-righteous, then OK.

We could keep going on this for a long time if you really want to, but trolls who lurk under bridges do respond to attacks with attacks so maybe that would be a clue to stop doing it.

Yep, lots of dough... I was gonna maybe stay with relatives in Austin, if I can swing the time off of work and airfare. I'll buy you a drink, seeing as you're at least not involving yourself in attacking me for daring to post to the insular little clique here.

Third Party Community Sites, What Can They Do For You?
There are hundreds of websites out there, all clamoring to deliver news and information about your game to your audience. How do you best build a relationship with them in order to publicize the core messages of your game? What do the people behind those sites need in order to better serve the community? What are PR teams doing right to build these relationships? What are they doing wrong?

He's also the one that made the comment in the panel that he expects anything put on f13 to get blasted.  I thought he always got a very good reception here due to the fact that EQ2 has improved dramatically.

Anyhow, Blackguard was one of the cooler people I met at AGC.  Very laid back, easy going individual even when I said something negative about SWG before I looked at the company name on his shirt.  The SOE guys are very honest in person about how badly they fucked up with NGE.

I don't notice a great deal of chatter from CMs here about anything but direct questions they can actually answer about their game. Those that come here at least.  I think Cal occasionally will jump in a UO topic.  I'd imagine Brenlo (nice guy too) is too fightened to come near our SWG threads.. I would be.  People here aren't exactly polite when it comes to games they've been burned by.

The nature of their jobs prevent them from interacting too freely with us, I'd imagine.  From the few community specific panels I attended at AGC, you get a feeling that they're honestly too busy to shoot the shit with us while protecting the public face they have to maintain. And some consider us too small time or too hostile to interact with.  I may (in fact I believe I'm inclined to) write an article about what I gathered from these panels but it might come off as something too blantantly obvious and not all that insightful.

My apologies then.  I don't play EQ2 (unless you count WoW) so I had no idea who he was.

Saying a blanket "Won't Post on F13 Because They're Mean" is a little silly.  Raph still manages to post here despite us barracking SWG at every opportunity.
