FAIR, is a word, that not seems to count very much these days in business...

:cry:

It's not so complicated. Subsim.com wants to keep good relations with Ubisoft. So you can't use subsim.com as a vehicle to inflict any financial damage to Ubisoft.

true, but I learned very young in life that you dont always get what you want.... nor do you always get exactly what you thought you were going to get.

All im saying is walking into the SH5 forum is like walking into an out of control kindergarten class room.

Some of the kids are merrily playing with the building blocks or coloring, the rest are crying and stomping up and down because of a hundred different reasons.

it only takes five seconds to sit up straight and tall, and say to yourself "Im going to be a grown man about this and reserve my judgements until all of the evidence is available."

sadly, thats WAY too much for some folks to do.

Wow. Over-reacting much?

I can perfectly well understand why Subsim is shutting down stupid "boycott" threads, and Subsim is a private forum, free to be run as it pleases the owner.

Calling for Boycott is too much.
Not buying the game, buying it and not being happy about some of its limitations (or seen as such) or delaying the buy until there's a Subsim review is a matter of personnal choice.

Calling for boycott is like.. trying to impose what you think is right to others, which I do think is wrong. Let each person choose and that's it.

Calling for a boycott and telling someone to boycott a game are two different things. I don't recall reading any post telling (aka demanding) people to boycott SH5.

I simply point you here

Under that logic Subsim could never give a negative game review.

an honest in depth review is one thing.

a full on boycott war is a total other issue:salute:

But SubSim wouldn't be waging such a war.

No more than subsim is waging a war against 'political party x' when
someone in General Topics says people shouldn't vote for them.

This discussion ends here for me.

I'm sorry but I fail to see how a personal opinion of a subsim member applies to my comment. Also IMHO it seems pretty obvious at times what Ubisoft marketing thinks of their "good relations" with subsim.com

Wow, you wanna job? :up:

Simply this, guys: boycotts are the nuclear weapon of community activism. People as individuals can determine for themselves if they want to buy a game or not.

You are right, but the core mission statement for Subsim has always been, to support sub game developers and the people who play subsims. Politics and sub games are apples and oranges.

Exactly....so why the need for censorship?

Subsim is Ubisoft's bitch. :DL
