Petition to MMORPG.com - create a seperate beta weekend/review/feedback forum

BadSpockBadSpock Member UncommonPosts: 7,979

Dear MMORPG.com mods, I ask you with humility to please create a seperate sub-forum for all beta/weekend feedback/review/discussion etc. otherwise this forum and tons of other forums like The Pub will be over run by Monday.

Agree?

    I concur... similar to what they did with Tera, have a separate "reviews" section.

    Why should guild wars 2 get this special privledge?

    This isnt an Areanet forum, we dont need a special feedback forum for guild wars 2, guild wars 2 should already have a forum just for that purpose once the weekend starts if they are a good company.

    Because the forums are about to get swamped.

    +1 for supporting this

    Not needed. I don't need 5 different tabs open in my browser for a single game.

    Although I agree with the idea, most people will still post in the general anyway because they wont take the time to read/care...

     I have to agree. May as well create a review/feedback section now to get things going.

     Not so much for this weekend as in more for general purposes from here on out.

    1. For god's sake mmo gamers, enough with the analogies. They're unnecessary and your comparisons are terrible, dissimilar, and illogical.

    2. To posters feeling the need to state how f2p really isn't f2p: Players understand the concept. You aren't privy to some secret the rest are missing. You're embarrassing yourself.

    3. Yes, Cpt. Obvious, we're not industry experts. Now run along and let the big people use the forums for their purpose.

    The forum should be up now. You SHOULD be able to see it, but not post yet. If anyone wants to test this and post back here.

    We got a special section for SKYRIM also when it was flooded here for weeks on end.

    Excellent, good thinking :)

     Awesome. You're alright for an SWTOR fanboy :P. I kid...I kid...

    Still not sure why you didn't name it simply reviews/feedback rather than pigeonhole it into being specifically for the beta weekends but suppose you guys can always rename it later.

    Not Mike B from GBTV. :) We get confused a lot! We are friends though, I'll be sure to pass your thoughts along!

    Grr now I need 2 tabs...

    Well, nothing much to report for now, except that the login screen music is great, and that the graphic/sound settings are working flawlessly ;)

    We'll have a separate forum for that when the game comes out and basically archive this one.

    I say no on this and I'll tell ya why, because beta isn't forever, there is no point in creating a seperate forum section just for something that isn't going to be around for more than a couple of months with weekends done perhaps once a week, not to mention we have our own forums right in the heart of GW2's website itself, we shouldn't have to resort to going to other forums all the time to give our spill there.  If anyone is interested they'll seak the forums they wish to read and go there.  Sure it would probably help the traffic on this section of the forums but tbh I don't see this area of MMORPG.com being anything else but spammed with people's feedback during the beta so it may as well just stay as it is.

    Awesome thanks Mike, sorry I didn't see the note earlier this week. Please close/lock and/or delete thread! Thanks!

    Agreed for the sake of organization.  Why make people who aren't interested in other players' reviews have to sift through pages of reviews just so they can find topics they are interested in?  Likewise, why make players who are looking exclusively for player feedback sift through pages of other topics to find what they are looking for?
