You've just gotta have a tough skin.....

*shows his tough skin*

Tough Skin ??? or Callouses????

Well, I go there, because just occasionally there's a nugget of useful information, which I pass on to the more reasonable minded people on other boards such as this one. Several posters show as 'you are ignoring this poster' though
It was also the one place you might get some official attention if you had a real problem. Maybe that will change now this board has official backing too. I'd much rather post my concerns here.

That's the best feature Stratics could've added imo, "Ignore"
heh

I hope this doesntoffend anyone but the difference between stratics and here is like having a quick burger and a beer for dinner(stratics), or having filet mignone and a brandy here, stratics has no class

since this site is relatively new being 'recognized' and stratics has been around a lot longer, and not as many people are here because they're nicer here, maybe that's part of it Kultfire.
Don't try and say that uoforums doesn't 'help' people. i personally never even saw your question..as i don't read every single post that comes in...if i am not interested in the title i don't necessarily read it. And this may be the case with others.
So please be careful how you respond to posts here..uoforums is not as 'tolerant' as stratics.

Nicely put!:grin:

I prefer reading complaints about UO over reading complaints about UHall, personally.

Stratics isn't that much different than UOForums - they just have more people posting. Reduce the number of posters there, or increase the number of posters here, and they'd be the same place with different names.

that may and may not be true.. its kinda like generalizing and saying that any forum that has a lot of posters is going to have a lot of jerks.. Ive been to quite a few large forums and never have i come accross the "quality" of people ive seen at stratics...

it all comes down to the staff and what they allow.. stratics allows stupid people derailing posts and insulting posters and devs alike... Id like to think that UOF, if we ever get as big.. will be able to maintain the quality and community feel we currently have. I guess the catch is that it will take longer to grow because we are so determined to keep Asshats away.

exactly Dra'ki...
stratics doesn't have the people moderating that UOForums...here things are much more civilized and I believe that if we DID have as many people as stratics we'd still be better, 'cause we don't put up with all that stuff.
Go UOForums!

The mindless arguments and the petty b.s. are exactly why I don't read stratics anymore....it's not worth the time or effort involved.

one other thing I would like to point out, the occasional post ranting about UHall isn't the same as almost every post turning into some complaint, !!!!!, flame, rant.. about a game we voluntarily play for fun. at least if you don't want to read our one lil post you don't have to... over there you can't read anything with out running into their BS..
