Who Rules SEV..?

lithiumxsl · #1 April 14th, 2005, 08:13 PM

I thought this was a forum for SE.! I went to The SEV Forum and only a select few are allowed to give their rants. I know the game hasn�t been released (Beta); But It would of been nice for others to voice opinions. Those select few seem to voice almost all. Are they or are you the site managers..? Is shrapnel managing? If so how bout opening up the board so I can tell you how much I think this Game is Going to SUCK. I hear The New York Times is always hiring. Some should get a job there when they rant. Anything other than SE should be banned. Even Moderators. They're the biggest Problems. Look at their Posts, nearly have of them have nothing to do with SE. There are places called chat rooms or Email or IM for That. I look at the % posts that are there and it reminds me of a Sports channel explaining passing plays for 3 hours (shoot me).

Me thinks you left the smiley off the end of your post... at least I hope you did.

lithiumxsl, did anyone force you to read the off topic posts?

I have my favorites and I stick to those. As to any SEV rants, fire away. I'm curious about what you have to say (whether for enterainment value or thoughtful consideration remains to be seen.)

I may as well give you the benefit of the doubt, so I will mention it; Shrapnel is not publishing SE5. They have most kindly created an SE5 forum for us to use.
The forum is open, although perhaps you may have personally been banned from it. I wouldn't know about that.

By the way, Richard HIMSELF has repeately stated that Off-Topic threads are welcome.

If you don't like the space empires series, and have convinced yourself that SE5 will suck, then so be it: go and play something else.

PS:
If you care at all about post count, you are very very shallow. To most of us, possibly all of the regulars, post count means absolutely squat. Post quality, on the other hand, means everything.

PPS:
Actually, scratch that. Low post count means a new player. We LIKE those. It means more new SE4 ideas, discussions, and questions will be posted soon.

I'm pretty sure it's a joke; I've seen this guy before here and he's never acted like this.

I can tell from your profile that you've been posting to the board for 'bout a month now. I don't know how long you've been playing. But many of the people here have been playing SE4 for 2 or 3 years. A lot of what can be said about SE4 has already been said, so [OT] posts are bound to crop up.

What is the burning SE4 or SE5 topic that comes to mind for you? Share. We're listening.

This is a community forum of the SEIV players.

By Strat1st usual procedures the SEV forum will be setup by the developer Aaron Hall. From comments he has made in the past it will probably be more along the line of what you want.

Ok Ok....I was in a Zone. I had wrote about the game from my perspective and it didn't show. I was a little peeved . I'm more sober now. I swear I wasn't Flamin. . I am very disappointed about the new game though; I'll give my 2 cents in sometime soon. Hopefully there will be a better understandig. I've played for about 2yrs. without mods. I enjoy the game As Is.

Well, SE4 will remain the same.
The player base will naturally migrate, but that is a year or two away, and there will always be some players. SE4 is quite a solid game.
