Is this all message boards are used for now? (Plus my "Defiance So Far" opinion)

You mean mods? Because those are already in the game. In fact I think I've seen mods that are almost exactly like the examples you gave and they cost like 500 scrip (not bits) from a vendor. Or do you mean über mods that can only be purchased with bits from the cash store?

No, im talking about straight up bonuses, like when you max out a gun.

So decided to come to these boards and see what's what. Turns out it's just full of people with nothing better to do than to register and complain. I remember 6 years ago in WoW's hayday, there were complainers, but not to this extent. What the heck has happened to the internet in the past half-decade? Where did all the semblance of normalcy and sanity go and what is up with the majority of the whole internet being one big troll playground now?

Aww, your naivete is adorable. Don't ever change.

But seriously, tho, yeah, welcome to The New Age, as the commercial goes. For years and years now, most MMO forums have been a noisome, caustic cesspit of whiny kids, obnoxious jerks, complete jackholes and malignant trolls... punctuated by the occasional bright spot of a coherent thought every great once in a while.

If you're just returning the digital fold, you'll learn quickly enough how to ignore to chaff and zero in on the wheat -- if you have the patience for it, that is. Personally, I'd only found one MMO forum in the last decade worth immersing myself in very much (aside from checking on patch notes, etc), and this one certainly ain't it.

Well one thing I do find if someone actually uses the voice chat, is some young boy usually with a southern accent saying racist things and acting all ******ed(xbox btw). So it is pretty good when they dont talk.lol
