Anyone who goes beyond Madden (the game) and takes it to Ian or Phil (the person) needs to come back to reality. It is indeed a game.
Couldn't Have said it better myself!

If I was running MaddenMania, I'd be ashamed to call that guy a member.

Re: Exactly why I stopped going to MaddenMania

Believe it or not, that's actually pretty mild stuff by current MM standards. That sort of personal attack is the reason I too have pretty much given up on what was once the premier site for Madden discussion.

Pity.

Re: Exactly why I stopped going to MaddenMania

I've been registered over there for a few years but I rarely visit. Like someone else said there is a reason for that.

The thing is, it's not inconceivable that some idiot could come and spew that kind of garbage over here. But if they do, you can guarantee they won't be around for long.

Great job cleaning this place up, mods.

Re: Exactly why I stopped going to MaddenMania

Thats the reason why I only post in 2 forums, Os and Footballfreaks. In both of these forusm everything is done with class, and if someone doesnt agree with you it doesnt get personal.

When I was reading that I was like "who the hell said all that in here", then I read what ian said and I was pleased to see it wasnt here.

Re: Exactly why I stopped going to MaddenMania

Ian, there are idiots (and haters) everywhere, you can't let them affect you. I have just as many complaints about Madden as the next guy, but I understand you guys are working hard and have already made tremendous strides from where the game was at when you guys took over. If people just blindly complain and don't actually bring anything constructive to the table, don't let yourself get bothered by them. Just keep working hard and shut them up with a great product.
