Enough Already....

This is where you can discuss your homework, family, just about anything, make strange sounds and otherwise discuss things which are really not related to the Lancer-series. Yes that means you can discuss other games.

Enough Already....

I first want to thank and applaude the MANY people at the Egosoft forum for admonishing the FEW people causing trouble. I'm sorry your site is getting a bad rap here. Most of you seem to be good people who enjoy the space flight genre, and there's no doubt that X2 looks like an interesting game. I'm going to give it a try.

Like it or not, we all serve as "ambassadors" for the sites we call home, whether expressed or implied. It's a shame that a few people are coming here and implying they're from your fine site. It hurts all of you. I took some time and read many of your threads at your site, and seems most of you feel this way too.

I'm truly happy that so many people are joining up here. Do we always respond to newcomers with grace and gratitude: No, but forgive us, we're humans behind the text one reads. I do know that MOST of the time, we welcome people with open arms. I also know that a FEW times, we've erred.

Having never played X2, I feel I have no right to post any opinions about it. If I did, it would be out of speculation and ignorance. Saying something on the basis of "my game is better than yours", well, let's put it this way: My 10 year old daughter often tells my 5 year old son not to do that.

Finally, can our sites peacefully co-exist? Of course. We don't want to blame or judge an entire community on the actions of a few of its people, and especially since the community is not only not supporting, but admonishing, those people. Hat's off to you for this! Intelligent cross communication can only enhance both sites. Although we may have gotten off the a bad start, I look forward to sharing ideas, thoughts, and the like with all the fine people at the Egosoft site.

Boscoe, now i know why I respect you so much!
You would be a great TLR delegate

Hey all! I was chatting with Tach last night. I warned him that a moderator/forum war was brewing. And it has. A week ago things were fun and alot of great forum topics were appearing. Now look what is happening. This makes me quite angry and sad.

I came. I saw. I conquered. And sometimes get conquered.

Good points Boscoe... Ready to put all this behind us as well.

And if we (X'ers) could just calm down some of the stuff on our own forum then prehaps life could get back to normal although perhaps with more friendly interaction between the forums.

Looking forward to hanging around to see what FL brings (at least while the boss aint looking!)

Precisely... agreed Boscoe... as I said before... there's more in life to worry about people... lets enjoy our hobby in peace.

All hail Boscoe! Head of TLR Diplomatic core

hehe, The Capturer, so I see I'm not the only one who visits forum boards while at work.
