why are people blocked or verbally beat up for bashing the game?

[Snake65]

I don't understand other than the use of the word (ret%^d) was a thread closed or people bashed for negative posts? I for one want this game to work. I like that I can choose all 30 teams so this way i can play the world series even if my Mets are out. But with all the time they have and all the gliches its a right to complain if one pays $60 for a game.

And the roster limit thing is insane. There are some great guys on here year after year that make this game and others awesome because they take the time to make the rosters 100% down to A ball.

I just hope that 2K had the foresight to leve the game "open end" so they can patch and correct these issues. Also I know they read this stuff and they should be right on with a statment along the lines "we will patch that asap"

So with that I don't understand other than foul language that peoples posts are closed or bashed for saying how they feel.

because a lot of people post just to rant. they have no constructive criticism in their posts, so all they are doing is taking up sapce.

To add to panthers_freak's post, there are usually stickied threads for you to post your displeasure of the game.(impressions, glitches, etc.) It becomes very annoying when people branch away from that and create a "Look At Me, I'm Upset" thread. For example, EVERYONE should know about the aggressive CPU batting by now, but some time this week, someone will create ANOTHER thread entitled "HOW CAN THE TESTERS NOT NOTICE THIS!!!!" It's totally overkill at that point. Right now, I'm only looking at threads that may contain a possible solution or workaround to these issues until a patch is released.

Geez, what message board are you reading. If the mods were blocking all negative posts about this game there would be about three threads on this board. I don't see any attempt to censor the negative about this game.

If anything, I've seen those supporting the game (or enjoying it) getting treated by those who hate the game like Michael Jackson at a clan rally.

Um, it's how well you present your complaint. If you want to kick your heels and stomp your feet, at OS, (no slight of OS, I like that) the thread will get closed. If you post your complaints constructively, your thread should remain open.

There are other message boards where you can kick your heels and stomp your feet.

It has been mentioned time and time again. The Forum Administrator even posted New Rules at the top of the forum about this subject.

We don't mind constructive criticism, and we certainly don't mind you not liking the game. We do however mind when users clutter the forums with new thread after new thread that basically says the same thing. That's why a lot of threads are closed/merged.

I suggest that if you have any problems with how things are run around here you take the time to send a PM to our Forum Administrator, Millennium.

Thanks!

^Exactly. It's mostly pointless garbage.

Has to be constructive criticism.
