because kanonyuki, people want to believe their
opinion is right and true...
"gee I hate <x> thing..."
"how can these people like <x> thing..."
"well they're wrong and I'm going to tell them why they're wrong.."
and / or
"this isn't the best way to do it! this is crap!"
and once that mentality sets in it's all down hill, because just as people will defend an opinion as though it were etched in steel fact... others will defend something they enjoy like it's a religion.
the world would be much simpler if people were to just let crap go and move on and for the most part leave each other alone...
if you don't like EQ2.. ok, fine, that's why there's tons of MMO's now.. choices are out there, find one that fits.. no sense in berating those who enjoy the game repeatedly because they don't share in your opinion... as it was so nicely put:

Yes, you can make suggestion and have the right to express your opinion, but you should also learn when to stop.
plus putting suggestions here will do nothing.. I seriously doubt the SOE dev's read these forums. And as comforting as it is to say "if you don't like it you don't have to read it." I can pretty safetly say most people are not as dispassonate as I am.. so I can take an "i hate X" sounding topic with a grain of salt.. but I'm the exception not the rule... however ask yourself this.. what are you "REALLY" trying to gain through posting rant number 543? You're want to hurt the company that supposedly hurt you by converting the masses away from playing it.
if you want to make a difference, quit the game.. leave the community.. and stop shooting your credibility in the foot.. honestly there are several people on this forum who's post I won't bother reading 'cause I feel the probabability of it being yet another "I hate SOE" rant is too high to merit the 60 seconds of my life it would take to read it... they may actually have a legit question that I just might have the answer to or even a valuable credible opinion on good ideas for the future of the game.... but rant after rant has pigeon-holed them in my eyes.
as for those of us who enjoy EQ2.. simply need to learn to ignore the posters who insist on hammering the boards time and time again with the same old song of how SOE has done them wrong and let the post simply fade away to the back of the page archive, and don't pour oil on the flames they're trying to spread by just not responding to post specifically designed to get you upset.
sounds simple.. but as I said.. few people are as dispassonate as I am...
