Ivanblood Posted February 17, 2012 Share Posted February 17, 2012 Is SWTOR Forum a war zone ? True Star Wars-scale battles occurs not in game, but in the forum. Right now, it´s like a warzone. A galactic scale war between Haters vs Hammer Legion vs Reasonable Moderators. If you post a thread there, it sums up dozens pages of comments in a few hours . I have an impression that there are more haters than hammer legion members, but the latters compensate its numbers with the sheer amount of fanaticism. One hammer legion member han easily take on ten haters. Epic battles occurs. And Reasonable Moderators are usually caught between the two factions´ war resulting in collateral damage . Amount of RAGE liberated in these battles is just epic. No Lord Sith can compete against a furious hater or hammer legion member . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
archifikoss Posted February 17, 2012 Share Posted February 17, 2012 Hahaha indeed, if the PvP in the game were even close to the PvP on the forums, TOR would have put even games like Counterstrike to shame Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pmiles Posted February 17, 2012 Share Posted February 17, 2012 Forums are fodder for such things because people are posting from school/work. Obviously if they are playing the game they'd be there and not here. Also, most players never even step one foot in the forums at all. So the people you see here, actually go out of their way to post on the forums... they're usually the same people posting on the other game forums as well... and usually the exact same things!

iRouven Posted February 17, 2012 Share Posted February 17, 2012 Very few exceptions from this (from what I have seen on different gaming forums). I'm not so sure what is hard about the concept of just discussing and talking about things. Then again a lot of TV shows are like that too. If you watch older shows there is a lot less snarkyness, nowadays everyone has to mouth off - or so it seems to me. No wonder a lot of kids (and I mean younger kids) seem to talk back often to their parents. Sorry I'm getting a bit off topic here - I just don't think it's a particular "online" phenomenon, more a social thing in general - perhaps amplified here. There is lot's of nice people here.

Completely agree. When I am at home, I am playing the game. When I am on a break at work or snacking at home, I am checking the forum. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
