Let's fix the game!

[Bat420maN]

I still wouldn't be a part of this place if it wasn't for the few here that I know and enjoy conversing with. My vids get no respect here, nor does the work I put in. I could care less what you guys think of the newcomers(it's pretty obvious now). Not all of us are willing to sit around and watch a game we enjoy die. If that's what you OG's are about(sitting around getting butt fucked)so be it. I ain't into anal, and I was taught that if I want something, fight for it.

Side note: It's funny I read a post in here the other day about getting more members here, is that so you guys got more people to treat like they don't belong?

[NotedDerk]

I understand what the others are saying, but this time batman, I applaud your efforts.

[Antwan]

Who are you really mad at bat? We arent EA.. to be an activist you would probably want to convince others to help rather than stirring up shit be a little more open minded and maybe even apologize.

[Bat420maN]

I ain't mad at anyone. And if it appears it's me stirring up shit you need to take a look at your OG's coming in here for no other reason then that, or possibly a mirror would suite you. I am done with all of your newcomer crap shove it up your asses, I don't care about it. I am here to try to get this dam game fixed. If your not into the cause, fuck off, it's really that simple. I shouldn't need to convince any one here to be ready to fight for something we all put so much time into. Apologize? For not being a pussy and willing to take it up the ass? Again, fuck off.

I'll be making my calls at 8:00 am and again at 1:00 pm(pacific time)anyone else feel free to help me clog up the phone lines.

bother the higher up's on facebook:

this is sean sherwin, he was one of the main developers, and still works for e.a.

i messaged him when the servers were screwed up before, the next day everything was working.

flood him with messages.

I'm the only one who said anything about newcomers I think. And Bo is the only one giving you shit in here. Don't be so shallow and maybe some would take you seriously.

[Ohmidineffect]

The only reason I'm against is because this isn't like a political protest or a strike at a job, if you harass customer support lines they're just going to cut service to the game. Which will lose them alot of fans but save them money that they won't have to spend on fixing the servers etc. Business is business and time is indeed money so if we're wasting time they can be spending elsewhere they're going to kill off the thing wasting it, which is the servers for Skate as a whole. Where as if we come up with a more reasonable approach to it they might be willing to do something. If you wanna be serious start a petition and email it to EA. collect multiple emails from devoted members and tell EA that there are still quite a few of us playing the game. That's more respectable than badgering at the tech support guys. They offered bat420man a refund because he's one person but they're not gunna refund EVERYONE for a 60 dollar game and DLC. Think in terms of reasoning. Just whatever you do don't flood the phone lines it's the easiest way to get the game axed.

adda Thanks for that link, will do. I think I am the only person in the world without a Facebook account, so I got to do that first I guess.

signguy Put a leash on your OG's. All they want to do is run off at the keyboard, all I want to do is fix the game, yet I am shallow. Funny how that works.

8 am call coming in 20 minutes.

Ohmid The deal with everyone needing to call tech is the fact that most first time callers will be told they don't even know there is a problem. We need to make it known that the crap servers are fucking with more then just myself.

[Ohmidineffect]

Cool. I see you didn't even read what I said. These are people who have shown a pattern of not giving a fuck about fans. The more you annoy them is the more they think "Hey our phones/ lives would be much easier if we just drop all the servers instead of working to fix a server for a game thats been held on to for a year with no sign of a new release. If you wanna make it a real thing respond in an organized REAL way with documentation. Or as I said before you can just keep calling them everyday along with 30 other people until they "Fuck this game" and drop the ax. I'm not an OG but I am a sensible human who realizes that you're risking the game by doing this.

[bengrover]

There is nothing I want more from this game than for it to run smoothly. But I'm pretty sure the odd phonecall won't change that. You can say "if evryone does it.." but the fact is they wont. And when you actually think about the population of the active community on here and similar places, even if everybody from here called, it wouldn't be enough to even make a dent in EA's thought proces of the Skate series.

So it's not the fact I or we don't want to get all this games flaws perfected, but more the fact that in reality, the likelihood of anything major happening is slim. I imagine they will fix this major server issue eventually, but I've give up on the hope of the servers ever running perfect.

Maybe I'm just cranky cause I just found out I failed my A Levels, but thats my thoughts on the situation.

signguy Put a leash on your OG's.

And comments like that probably won't help up your respect you recieve.

you are VERY shallow for lumping all the old head's in with flix

this thread had credibility until you started talking about the core of fluckit "being a pussy and willing to take it up the ass?" tone it down a bit. give respect and you shall receive respect.

last warning. Do i have to remind everyone of this

yeah your right I brought it off course

[Bat420maN]

Now go back and quote what that was in response too.

Better yet don't bother, just stay on topic.

Not saying who cares about the new guys or anything. But for a lot of guys its been like 4 years of the community, the vids, the games, its been a fun ride, but its coming to an end. )



Can you read?

[Bat420maN]

Can you? Seems way off of the subject matter to me. Seems you would rather be off topic though.

ITT: More reasons the internet sucks as a communications tool.

Bats has an idea which is all with good intent, Bohemian acts like an asshole (just calling a spade a spade), Bats gets defensive and makes a statement that's a little too broad about the OG's, the OG's come back at him in a very condesending manor, and fuck all gets done to help any of us out.

There's plenty of people I consider my e-buddies on both sides of this fence, and I'm just going to say ya'll should step back, grab a cup of coffee, count to ten, and see if you're here to contribute or just fuel the flames.

Again, Bats is working with good intent. If you want to support him, do so. I'm not going to lie, I'm in the "I gave up a long time ago" boat, but I'm sure as shit not going to be a dick to Bats if he wants to try to Andy Dufrane the situation in the rest of our behalf.

Even the non-malicous but unsupportive posts are simply deconstructive. If you've given up, that's fine, but there's no need to shit on a guy for wanting to keep fighting the good fight.

Sorry to sound like everyone's dad, but I'm disappointed in a lot of folks I like and/or respect right now...

[bohemian]

i try to be polite

and honest


but by all means, keep up your 'fight'. keep calling ea. i wont tho. sorry.
