Kein offizielles Warhammer Forum

In einem doch eher ungewöhnlichen Beitrag erklärt Mark Jacobs, warum es für Warhammer Online : Age of Reckoning kein offizielles Forum gibt und sehr wahrscheinlich auch nicht geben wird.

Whether it was SOE, Blizzard or us, official or semi-official forums are exactly like I described above for every successful MMORPG that I have played or watched from afar (and that is *most* of them). The unsuccessful ones were even worse. The problem is that most people who read the boards are looking for information and a reasonable number of people want to cause trouble, &quot;grief&quot; the forums or simply get their jollies by saying and doing things that they wouldn`t do in real life. As usual, a small percentage of people make life more difficult for everyone else. Back when games had hundreds of people playing, well, no big deal. We ban those guys and life returns to normal. With millions of subs for WoW and hopefully lots and lots for WAR, well, it becomes much more complicated, difficult and soul-sucking for the devs and the community people. I wouldn`t want anyone to go through what Sanya and I had to go through (and she had it worse since she is a woman and that brought out the worst in some people) in the early days of DAoC. How she and other community managers put up with the kind of name calling, insults, vulgarity, profanity without losing their minds is amazing.</div></td></tr></table></ul>

Für mich klingt es so, als ob sie hier Angst hätte, das Leute / Spieler irgendwas im offiziellen Forum aussagen könnten, was das Spiel schlecht macht. Dann es lieber in einem Forum lesen, was nicht offiziell ist, wo man es noch dementieren kann, als im eigenen wo man solche Aussagen dann womöglich zugeständnisse macht? Ich schätze mal das dieser Beitrag von Jacobs nicht ganz wohl überlegt statt gefunden hat.

Wenn ich das richtig verstanden habe, dann hat er Ansgt die Zensur nicht mehr im eigenen Forum richtig durch führen zu können, wenn es zu viele Spieler werden?
