Sawyer and Barter

[DarkUnderlord]

This is precisely why he needs to get off his ass and get away from that den of idiocy that is the IPLY forum. I'm not talking about heading to SomethingAwful's forum, either, as anyone that would pay a monthly fee for forum access can't be the sharpest tool in the shed.

Just because you were banned there doesn't mean that other FO fans can't use the IPLY forums to post their ideas. Why aren't they?

Probably because they've been banned as well. Killzig and a few others have been booted along with Saint. I usually pop over there from time to time, but mostly don't read the 15 pages of a thread just to find out thet J.E. has already decided that combining throwing, gambling and making a kick-boxer skill are all good ideas.

Something needs to be done, that much is correct. I have posted a lot of ideas for VB that could probably use some (or a lot of) tweaking, yet few people remain there who are capable of handling a serious debate.

J.E. knows what Fallout fans like and what they don't like. He'd have to be retarded not to realise that. There are umpteen posts all over DaC and NMA (especially in the old NMA boards) that all quite clearly detail what Fallout fans think about Fallout and where we want the series to go.

J.E.'s made it pretty clear that he's ignoring all of that.

He still hasn't split the list of FO2 weapons into his idea of how they'd fit in Small Guns vs Big Guns. He's let that hang because we don't agree with him.

The answer is not to require Sawyer to leave the official forums of his parent company, but to start participating. Dialectics is the best method for imporvement, after all. Briosafreak is doing a good job pasting NMA posts at IPLY, but it would be much more productive if he didn't have to do that.

He has to do that because as you know, Saint and others aer teh Ba|\||\|3d.
