What planet do some of these people come from? (UIC at OOTP Boards)

From here.

I didn't pre-order... they're not getting my money until I get my game.
I'll pay a few extra dollars and keep my dignity. It's the principle.

Since you pre-order morons sent you're payment in, they're not rushing to get this game out anymore. The entire company is probably kickin' it in cancun right now, sippin' frozen drinks, and watching the donkey show instead of coding... all paid for by the pre-order payments you sent in. I believe it was around the time pre-ordering became available that dreams of having the game "on the shelves" by opening day began to fade. Hmmmm.

Since they are not giving us a release date, but only restating over and over "release is not imminant"... I wonder if they could give us a date when the release will be imminent?

Judging by the screenshots, this game doesn't look all that different from ootp5... looks like the menus changed colors... whoopie! But, I won't judge until I play it - especially since this company has rarely let me down in the past. Just an observation, that's all.

Does this guy truly believe this, or is he just trolling? I really hope he's just trolling...

We should bring that guy over here. He'd be the best thing since HM.

That language seems native to the OOTP planet.

Ben E Lou · 04-07-2004, 07:57 AM

When I first read it, the "kickin' it in Cancun" thing stood out. However, upon further review the "keep my dignity" comment actually has me sitting here giggling.

What is UIC?

Personally I thought it was a funny post.

un-intentional comedy

If I had to guess. It's probably a little of both. There is probably a little annoyance from him that the game isn't out yet, he's probably sick of people asking when it will be released. He also probably wanted to provoke some reaction, so he decided to post everything, making thigs a bit more over the top to provoke a reaction.

Ben E Lou · 04-07-2004, 08:07 AM

The other funny thing is that the only reaction he got was sarcasm.

jetpunk2000 · 04-07-2004, 08:38 AM

What I don't understand, (and I'm not complaning) is why don't we get so many of these morons over here? It's amazing sifting through the boards at .400 and OOTP that there are so many people like this on those boards. The TEW boards lately have been great fun for that reason alone.

They aren't true grognards like us.

Rizon · 04-07-2004, 12:47 PM

I'm glad I don't post there!

I hope he's not a Half-Life 2 fan

Firstly, you guys have enough idiots here - real, class A dumbasses. Secondly, I think the limits on aliases here keeps some of the stupid stuff down as well. Thirdly, OOTP seems to be branching out more than FOF- you get the 14 year old, while here you dont.
