I'm not fighting with you. As a blanket statement your premise, "MMOs suck the life and soul out of you" is mistaken, misleading, which I told you in my very first reply, and flat wrong and you are giving bad advice. Maybe you and others can't control your MMO urges, but there are lots who can, who can manage it, and enjoy it immensely. I'm done explaining this to you. You've broadcast your warning about MMOs. I do agree that for some it's a good warning, but not for all, and that is what I disagreed with. This happens to be a pro- MMO thread, with most participants looking forward to new offerings. I'm moving forward from there.
First of all. My hyperbole was a conclusion, not a premise. Save your pop-phil remarks for someone that has no clue. You have no idea what my actual premises are about MMOs. However I'm here and can tell you. If you were intellectually honest, you would simply ask me what they were instead of saying ridiculous things like, 'your premise is wrong'.
Secondly, I do have plenty of reservations about the emergent strategies of the MMO genre and if you are trying to say I'm wrong about them (even though you have no idea what they are because I haven't voiced many of them), then you have to explain yourself.
Thirdly, you claimed that I didn't know how MMOs function. So again, you have to tell me how you think they function, and explain to me how I'm wrong about that.
