It happens on Game Forums that have lost touch with their playerbase and who think the BanHammer is an appropriate substitute from properly addressing the concerns of the PlayerBase.
It is almost always an indicator of a game in player-retention meltdown.

Yeah, it seems that some people think that "Corporate Image" is more important than a "Happy Playerbase".
Which seems to overlook that a Happy Playerbase is just about the best thing possible for Corporate Image.
But hey, what do I know.

I have been excited for an MMO that I can not only play on my console, but one that will support a controller well and one that I can play with friends who don't have a decent setup - and this is the thing that I have to walk into. I know it's really hip these days to complain about mods, roll your eyes and say "oh, we're not doing anything" but by starting and participating in a thread like this - you know exactly what you're doing.
Real nice introduction to the community guys.
LOL
Double lol indeed.

I'm a PC and console guy, I played ESO beta and played at launch/early release through about August 2014 (stopped really playing a lot closer to July). I loved the game, but yes, it was broken from the get go and still hasn't been fixed.
I understand being upset about the lack of attention to the PC platform. Especially since said lack of attention, especially to PvP has ruined end game and also paying a monthly sub before the game went F2P.
My question to all of the PC players in here is: Why? Why did you continue to force yourselves to suffer through all the [snip]? Why not just cancel your sub and not play the game? Why waste your time?
And yes, it's your time and money to do with as you please. Not jumping on any of you guys at all. Personally, when I had enough of the [snip], I cancelled my sub and dabbled around some other MMORPGs and console games. I'd periodically check the forums on here, usually about once a month or so, to see if anything had changed. Hoping it had to come back.
[snip]
You should want the consoles to work smoothly, then PC might get attention again and hopefully fixed. That's what I'm hoping for at least.

HUH so you mean waiting over a year and helping pay for the console work and then expecting just a little love and understanding with a few words to us what will happen now with US the PC/MAC players is being a moron. LOL OK RIGHT!
Case in point, yesterday PC/MAC was having major lag issues even the forums went down, not one word about PC/MAC every word was about consoles when it was affecting us ALL!

But a note of apology. At launch, millions of players around the world were eager to explore Tamriel. The overwhelming demand caused delays for some players trying to log in. We jumped on the problem, but we’re truly sorry for any frustration or inconvenience any of you are experiencing. We are working around the clock to address these issues.
and
Server Capacity: While we have established large data centers to support a huge player population, the millions of active players now in ESOTU may require increased server capacity to reduce queues and alleviate any server performance issues. This is being investigated as a priority for us.

One thing that also has bothered me/we as in PC/MAC players have posted great ideas in the last year. Granted if they would of taken part in these threads it would of helped a lot. But it saddens me that not one of those great posts have ever become a sticky in here!

Don't worry about it - I wouldn't take it that way because you didn't do it that way.
What I take issue with is the odd inability of a lot of people to understand how a forum works in regards to content management. The way that people handle things that get removed? Usually warrants some kind of reaction - I've seen it in almost every community that I have joined in regards to a game with an online element and it is kind of worrying. There's a sense of entitlement that is hard to get over and it only gets worse as the player base ages and new people come in. I don't want to start a whole lol, millennials thing but it IS a relatively standard issue that I have seen across the board.
I'm sure things will change that I don't like - but I can't ever see myself reacting in a way that would warrant a ban or deletion in any case and I have never really been the type to take issue with things in such a major way. If something changes in the game and I don't like it, I just tend to roll on and focus with the things that I do like. What has happened around here? I'd like to honestly decide for myself - because walking in and seeing people arguing with tame and reasonable requests from a moderation staff is kind of off putting.

100% correct. Though a lot of the things they edit/remove/ban for make zero sense majority of the time lol Just have to stick around and find out. I really do wish you the greatest experience on consoles! maybe one day you will come join us on pc and experience eso with addons
