I will miss random new members showing up and posting. Not sure that will happen here w/o the corporate sponsorship and name recognition. I just googled 'mass effect forums' and this place was eighth on the list. Whether that's biased as I come here already, i don't know, but it's not too bad if it's legit

I took a look at the search results again and when I type "mass effect forums" there also show up some german only ones (which probably don't show up when you do the same).

- Botmods that failed at their work in a way that usually end up with companies going bankrupt.
- Rules that didn't make sense.
- People, insulting everyone, within the boundaries of those rules.
- People from 3 not being handed bananas because 1.
- Drama seekers, misinformation spreaders and the like being protected, while people pointing out their bullshit were being banned left and right.
- Pornomancer's perma-we'll-delete-your-ass-ban.
And many, many more.

Sadly, I missed that. Was there a rivalry going on between them? It was more that people like Cyonan and Dragonracer (who are both here) were a couple of the most helpful people on the forum; guides, analysis and so on... ... Cassandra well ... wasn't I'd say that those two were THE most helpful BSNers (in the MP section at least). The second part is the biggest understatement in human history, you should get that sarcasm checked out 😉. I will miss random new members showing up and posting. Not sure that will happen here w/o the corporate sponsorship and name recognition. I just googled 'mass effect forums' and this place was eighth on the list. Whether that's biased as I come here already, i don't know, but it's not too bad if it's legit I did the same thing. 1,2 BSN 3 something in french 4,5 Steam 6 Forbes about BSN closing 7 Neoseeker 8 bsn.boards.net So it's first thing that from its name is BioWare related that isn't currently being under orbital bombardment. Typing "bioware forums" resulted in 3 links to BSN, then ~20 "BSN is closing" articles (with swtor.com slapped in the middle) and first relevant link is this site's Twitter account, followed by fextralife. Not bad. Edit: From computer and IP that was never here, it's BSN, BSN, massrelay.cz (local forum) and bsn.boards.net. Better than expected.

I was banned for telling the truth about CS.
I knew that the entire thing, that thing, was phoniness personified, and shockingly I was right.
But you know, detective work is hard if you have a massive built-in bias. That was the issue with the old BioMods - they had personal drives guiding their moderation, rather than policy.

I honestly can't remember if I knew this thread existed. I've only skimmed it, but the general consensus does seem to be the decision to dump volunteer mods in favour of killbots programmed in the Nth nebula. I was banned for telling the truth about CS. When I did the big info dump in the last few days as things were heating up, I fully expected to get banned. I definitely expected a lot of pushback from the people raging at the MP section for trying to inform them about superblaze. I got some, but less than expected, and skirted the ban (somehow.) I do remember, before posting, going over it with the mentality "If I was a lawyer, what would I change to avoid getting sued." That probably helped. I also spent about 2 hours establishing links to the still-existing threads that hadn't been deleted by the mods (and that provided evidence of the story, which definitely helped.) I think there were about ten links to long sessions of classic insanity. I did get some responses from people who had been raging who said they had reconsidered once they actually read some of the shit superblaze said over the years. But I guess nothing was going to ultimately move the needle as much as simply watching what happened once superblaze was actually in charge of something. They had to see it for themselves, I guess.

HiddenKing "What a tool he was!" And that guy who wouldn't shut up about how perfect Yvonne Strahovski and Miranda Lawson are by extension. And some of the more popular and prone to drama type people, I departed long before Citadel released for this particular reason, and BSN and irl related trauma to be perfectly honest.

That time right when Dragon age inquisition dropped and the Mass Effect 3 multiplayer section was barely moderated. My god it was like the wild west, I think I had a dick pic on there for like a couple of days before they found it.

I won't miss the constant bashing of MShep the FemShep thread would do. Most at least try both, and if not, play who you like! But for a series where there's "no canon choices", they sure loved to insist that FemShep was the "canon" choice. Like, every third post was about how Mark Meer sucked. Not just Sheploo, but also Mark Meer. It was kinda sad.
It was a very toxic place....which is why I hardly posted, mostly lurked. But I saw names there I recognized here so I felt a bit more comfortable. Hell, I know I've posted here way more than I did on the Old BSN....still sorta lurk, but I post here way more often.

I won't miss the developers preaching about how wonderful Twitter is and how much better it is than BSN. Or the "sucks to suck" kick-while-you're-down nature of the tweets that some of them had going on for a while after the closure was confirmed. Still just a weeeeee bit bitter about it. At the end of the day this forum, and it's predecessors, exists because passionate people with a common interest have formed a community around what they've produced. Deriving satisfaction from that being taken away was just gross. But w/e, we recouped and guess what the first few results are when you google anything bioware plus 'forum' or 'discussion.'
