    I am sorry to see there are bad feelings about this and I would agree I don't probably fit in with the Line crowd who are more deserving. I would give up a stone for one of them if that could be arranged. Personally I feel @BlackBoltRocks does a great service also with what he tracks for MPQ and @Daredevil217 kept a character ranking system that has helped so many players visiting the forum. @KGB is crazy full of knowledge. @rainkingucd @Godzillafan67 and @MegaBee among others make me laugh. @SaltnPeppa always posts suggested covers for new releases which I enjoy a lot. @Hammer3001 gives us lots of ideas about new characters which are fun. @entrailbucket never bends in his love of the game. The Mods here are also top notch - this is one of the best communities I have ever been a part of and really so many people make it so. I read all posts and there are probably plenty more I have forgotten outside those already in the thread who deserve mentioning. Guys like those are MPQ elites in my book. There are lots of posters we haven't seen in a long time too all of which are missed, whether that is because they have quit or prefer other places to share wisdom, they all are missed. Personally I love the Forum but I am a bit old school that way, it is difficult to follow Discord as the majority of traffic is US time based so this is where I come for my fix and I really enjoy the community here, sometimes more than I enjoy the game itself - I really don't see that as being any different to the tight communities MPQ has on other platforms. Long live the Forum. ☺️

    You just provided the exact reason why you're deserving.

    Send me a link and I'll try it out.

    I'll just name one with a large enough team, you can look up Deus Ex Human Revolution. Doesn't match all your reqs but probably still more than you expected. Have fun, I think it held pretty well.

    That surprise aside, we'll just have to agree to disagree on the optics of this celebration. My "negatively" (negativity?) is an expression of 9+ months of worsening rewards met by yet another tonedeaf-for-99%ofplayers circle jerk.

    Pretty sure they knew the reception for this would be awful too since it's literally the only pinned message that didnt get it's own message in news channels.

    You made Deus Ex??? Crazy!

    If the "optics" of this celebration or whatever make you mad then I really think you're taking MPQ too seriously. This is a superhero version of Candy Crush meant to be played while you're in the toilet, it's not politics or religion or anything that actually matters.

    I said in a large team, purposefully not naming games with less staff on team ... I contributed to it for 3 years, no single person "made Deux Ex".

    @Blackstone said:
    Regardless... Would it have been so difficult to remain positive on this thread and vent in another page? [..]

    I default to "I'd rather do without echochambers" but I'll give you I could have better phrased my first post so my frustration doesn't spill over the winners.
    You can delete your thread, I'll make one myself when it's all compiled

    sadly you'll have to because if you don't want me to just lash out, I need to actually summerize points and data. But I promise it'll be worth the wait, possibly instructive on some level. Pinkie promess I'll tag you when its done.

    I mean it seems like you have purposely left me out but yes to everything else.
    Thank god my mom thinks I'm cool.

    I knew the best way of honouring you was to not mention you so that you could remind us how awesome you are! Although I hear your Mom thinks I'm pretty cool too! 😉

    I've always appreciated this forum, especially as someone who doesn't use Discord, Reddit or most of the social media platforms (I do hunt bots on FB and YT, but that's about it). It's been my main source of info on this game for about 10 years now, so thanks to anyone who has helped in one way or another!

    Also, if you only use this forum to get likes, you're definitely in the wrong place!
