EDIT: Actually, not as whole. It was going fine with the honest reviews, etc, but when it turned into the keyboard armies charging at each other over fucking trivial issues about a the morals of a clan in an online risk-clone, and how it somehow links to genocide, and war, is what makes me want to take a table and slam my head on it repeatedly, until I were to develop amnesia and forget the incident, or die from the brute force.

That is true. I suppose they are not happy with how a lot of people disapprove of how they call Guiroma "Bigus Dickus", and similar games with similar names.

yeah, finally reported him. Petty arguments on the forums can be considered the norm but his slurs against the disabled are just so wrong and certainly don't belong on here.
'Retard' isn't a slur, it's a clinical term.

Homosexual is an accurate word for someone who is sexually attracted to the same sex. Do people (SJWs) actually find 'homosexual' offensive now? Have we regressed that far?

I don't care who disapproves of me calling my games Bigus Dickus, it's given me a chance to meet some fellow Monty Python fans on warlight. If anything's offensive about those games it's that some people haven't seen Life of Brian

This is another example of the need for mod tools. If we had them, we could split all this talk that doesn't really relate to Poon Squad into a separate thread.

Well, I sort of get it. I mean a forum overhaul wouldn't attract any new players probably. But it might prevent a lot of good players from getting tired of the site and leaving. I know most of them don't bother with the forums anymore. In fact WG used to be pretty active on here and I barely see anyone but me and Gnuffone on here now.
I just wish they could allow us developers outside of WL to help them. But, this is a discussion for another thread (we already have one derailment in here)...one that has probably been really buried already.

@Chris: at this point, if you care about it enough, the best option might be to just make your own alternative. There's nothing that makes Fizzer uniquely technically qualified to run this.
