Players Make Too Many Assumptions, Grimm Responds

Thradia · 29th November 2005, 08:04 AM

Some players need to remember that they don't know what goes on behind the scenes, and shouldn't be quick to jump to conclusions...

~~~~~~~

Player: Because EA has refused to spend the money nessessary to pay REAL artists to do the art. Instead they use programmers who MIGHT have had one class in art back in college... once.

Unfortunate... the lost potential that is UO.

But then again, how many of us actully live to our potential.

Grimm: And exactly how much development work have you done for UO?
Don't get me wrong, I got no problem with criticism - but folks please try to adhere to the first rule of writing - stick to what you know.

I'm sure this poster had good intentions, and actually I agree with the later comments, but I for one would really appreciate that we all not try to make assumptions about motives or explanations and then post as if they were fact.

It's just a good rule of thumb and helps to maintain your credibility on boards such as these.

I promise I'll try not to as well.

Cheers,
-Grimm

That really needed saying. Too bad it can't jump right in the faces of those who do that sort of posting.
