Here's a good example:
I used to be a member of a now-defunct online poker forum. There was a particular member of the forum that would post thread after thread every year demanding that no one spoil who made the final table (when there was the 4 month gap between the first 7 days and the November 9) because he wanted to find out through the 3-4 month long ESPN coverage that showed 2 hours of highlights each week. He would post this in the one social area of the forum (everything else was solely dedicated to the business end of the site). Every year we would tell him that he's completely free to use the entirety of the rest of the forum as much as he wanted for staking and investing, but there was no way everyone was going to kowtow to his demands. He would continue to argue, bitch and moan constantly. He'd complain to mods and admins, and they'd basically tell him to shove it. Then when he continued to use the social forum, he'd get mad when he "accidentally" opened a thread about the final table.
That's the kind of shit I'm talking about.

SPOLIERS!.... dude, I haven't past Eos yet! You aren't missing out on much, unless you like the sound of SAM telling you about your life support status. Trust me, just rush to the ending, the final 2 or 3 quests are really quite good, especially if you don't dilute the story by wasting time with meaningless fetch quest garbage. I tried to 100% it, but 3 quests bugged out and thus that thrice-accursed 99% is stuck at the top of my galaxy map. Don't bother with that shit. Would be interesting to categorize BSN posts over time so we could watch the ebb and flow of whining vs. trolling vs. eDong. Does my above statement count as whining or trolling or both? We would need some definitions, and there will certainly be overlap... it might not be trolling but it's a gross over simplification and or misrepresentation of the games content.

It's possible that Blastoff was being sarcastic because he isn't a bit interested to continue the single player campaign ofcourse and he's just trolling. But there's a whole subforum dedicated about MEA where spoilers are allowed. I agree that you don't get to whine about spoilers when specifically going into a {SPOILER} forum/topic/whatever. That's like complaining about getting lungcancer while chainsmoking your entire life.

yeah I've heard qiute a bit about it too. I'm certainly tempted myself but with everything else I have going on I don't seem to find the time. I'm tempted too but might be hard with a kid around the house. Yeah there's a lot of stuff in that show that might scar a youngin' for life.

didn't bother to read all the posts debating the topic. The lithograph looks like it has five arks. I am certain there will be five arks. They mention the fifth ark at the end of the game. I doubt they would put up a lithograph with five arks if that fifth ark never really shows. I'm sure the ark dlc is in the works or mostly done. .

Minor artistic liberties like the Tempest being larger than the Arks?
EDIT: Whatever happened to all the pictures?

Seriously, google an image of an SX3/F-61Trident and hold them up next to the image.

It's just such a poor way to do business, to not plan for something that you actually made a point of mentioning in the game. I wouldn't care if it was more about the sales but knowing that this merger has shifted things so much, and that they had to know it was happening since before release, leaving a teaser to DLC in the game like that when it could just be removed would make them pretty bad in my book.

Maybe they did plan to but then the haters and all the negative press around the game happened. It still might happen but with Montreal gone and Edmonton with their hands full with both Anthem and DA4 our best hope is Austin.I'm not saying it definitely isn't going to happen but it is starting to look unlikely. All we can do is wait and see on this I'm afraid.

Yeah the game is out for a while, and it is only a light spoiler, but there is a perfectly good forum with spoilers allowed right below this one. I don't think it's unreasonable to complain when people don't use it.

Can I whine about nearly-impossible-to-avoid Game of Thrones season 7 spoilers when I'm still halfway season 6 to try and catch up? What about plot twists in certain older games, like who is Revan in Knights of the Old Republic... They're currently airing season 7, right? I'd say sure, if season 7 is getting spoiled, whine away, but if you're just now having season 6 spoiled (when it's a year old), then suck it up, kiddo. Look at it like this, if someone has never seen Star Wars, don't tell them who Darth Vader is. If that same person watches episode 4, then goes online and reads a bunch of forums and fan theories and what not about the entire series, feel free to tell them to fuck off when they whine that Vader's identity was spoiled. Buy EP4 that person would already know who Vader is cause he started with EP1....

No threads full of cherry picked images and sounds taken out of context with lots of people chanting : "Quarian DLC proved!". I still hope they are making one but there is really no evidence to back this since bioware is silent.

I'm concerned how BSN will react to that. Though it sounds like their starting to hatch out off their shell, because there being cryptic again and not silent, like pre-release cryptic.

I don't think it will be that bad. It's not like it would be the first time the most obvious DLC wasn't the first one out. ME2 made it obvious there was going to be a Shadow Broker DLC, but Overlord came out before it. ME3 made it obvious there was going to be an Omega DLC, but Leviathan came out before it.

I wouldn't be surprised if they were avoiding Quarians because of the photoshop thing. I doubt we'll ever see one with the helmet off now.
