Have you ever created a discussion on the ESO forums you didn't think through and regret it

bloodthirstyvampire · June 2017

Like maybe you where ranting and it was in fact whining. That sort of thing, try to keep it ESO related

Walties99 · June 2017

No

Danikat · June 2017

Yes.

I tried suggesting that ZOS could add the option to sell items by auction through guild traders - meaning you simply offer an item for sale without specifying a price and let people offer whatever they think it's worth, then after a set period of time the item is sold to the highest bidder for whatever they offered to pay.

At the time I didn't appreciate how many MMO players associate that word solely with WOW's auction house (I've never played WoW) and seemed totally unable (or unwilling) to understand that the two are not inherently linked and you can have that method of selling an item without also having a game-wide, automated trade system.

Needless to say the topic quickly descended into the usual shouting match and after about 2 pages I gave up trying to explain that they were disagreeing with something I'd never suggested to begin with because I'd have more success shouting at the wall.

On the plus side a few people who did read more than the one word pointed me towards some guilds who organise real-time auctions in-game (unfortunately I can rarely attend, but it's nice to know the option is there) and 3rd party websites which offer this option.

Is that what this is?

SantieClaws · June 2017

Only one.

There were a number of threads begging for large sums of coin.

So this one made one also as a joke - it seemed to be an obvious joke to this one who would never ask for coin - only booze.

Khajiit is sure that everyone who saw it must have understood the joke too yes.

However the thread it was removed - strangely the original and very serious ones they remained that day.

In conclusion, if the doubt were ever there, Khajiit she does not want your money (but she will take it perhaps if you leave your pocket open for too long!).

Yes, and it was ESO related, but I won't elaborate because I don't want to get your post scrubbed.

No, but there's been a ton of threads I started reading and then regretted it.

Rohamad_Ali · June 2017

No remorse . No regrets .

Loralai_907 · June 2017

Nope. I have only started 1 thread. And that was for the AK guild. Half of what I think about posting as comments I end up not posting as comments too. I probably have a crapton of drafts out there lol.

Bouldercleave · June 2017

Nope - I usually just try and fuel the fire....

Nestor · June 2017

Hmm, Regrets......

Threads I have made? No

Posts in some other person's thread? Yes

Imo the only reason people usually feel that way is because of the response to threads. Even with the most logical and modest of complaints/requests you always get somebody who pops up in the thread with the exclusive intention of bashing you or making you feel bad.

I regret most topics I try to discuss here because you always get that vile and cruel response instead of a decent adult conversation... really makes you question how many 'adults' are playing this rated M game -_-

That being said I'm also equally guilty of it some cases... it's hard not to sometimes be vile when something seems so dumb in your own mind. I think alot of people go the extra mile though with their swearing and name calling.

Turelus · June 2017

Oh yeah, that time I made one saying the $1mil should go to charity, that one got some hell of back lash and left me feeling pretty stupid.

Anlace · June 2017

No, but I haven't been here long. Give me a minute.

Tryxus · June 2017

Once

Pretty much out of frustration after IC launched when ppl raged at me in Cyro for being a NB. Ended up creating a wall of text trying to prove that NB weren't so bad after all

And yes, I really regret making that one

ArchMikem · June 2017

I regret making threads that expressed any opposition to whats the norm in game. The forum has a tendency to engage bully mode and quickly jump down your throat over it.

Avran_Sylt · June 2017

"Didn't Think through?" Many
"Regret It?" None, Cause even the ones I didn't think through lead to useful information.

Enslaved · June 2017

I enjoy reading/responding to other ppl threads. Out of staggering 2 threads I made so far, I regret none.

Warraxx · June 2017

No, but if i did, it would look something like this thread...

ShedsHisTail · June 2017

I reported a Bug that turned out not to be a Bug and just me being an idiot...

That's about as close as I get.

malcolmhagger · June 2017

i started a GoFundMe for morrowind and posted a thread about it

Sadly I almost never question the age of the posters because I've had to deal with exactly the same, or worse, in real life from people I know for a fact are adults. In many cases supposedly mature adults too - good jobs, own their home, married with kids etc. but throwing a tantrum like a small child if they think they won't get their own way. And over the most trivial things too.

Mazbt · June 2017

I will never actually start a thread unless it's meaningful and related to ESO (storyline, mechanics, balance). Some people like to use the forums as a space for their bad jokes and whining.

Prof_Bawbag · June 2017

Posted a few threads when I've been drunk, but I've woken up to a lot worse the morning after than some thread I've posted on the net.

Don't let them bother you. If it's a valid and well constructed post, then those who love to white knight ZoS are the ones doing more damage to the game they're playing than you are giving valid criticism. I'd love to see the complete mess and stagnation of the game we'd be playing if some people around here were listened to. Everything is perfect, no need for change. Well, at least until Zos do it, then it becomes the best thing since sliced bread. Every game has those people, so don't let them get to you.

Interesting. I read through the post you quoted several times and could find no mention of him/her stating anything about "White Knights". In fact, you kind of proved his point.

bloodthirstyvampire · June 2017

Also very few people judge a thread based on the title, without ever reading the description, then reply like they know everything .

A lot of mature successful adults may have a superiority complex. Like they know whats best, talking down to people who are just as successful as they are.
