Or, you could just not post it because it's something that's been posted a thousand times over. You are seriously degrading the signal-to-noise ratio. You hate DRM. You hate the fact that Ubi intentionally or not relies on modders for a finished game. We get it. Move on.

I agree 100%. I think World of Warcraft is dumb. I have no interest in purchasing it or playing it. But strangely enough, I don't feel any compulsion to register an account on the WoW forums and tell people that.

Going back to my first point - you can say "don't like it? don't read it." but then it's easy to counter that with "No, I don't like it, not because of the content of your message, but the fact that you're adding nothing to the forum. And messages that add nothing are pointless and spam. Quit that."

I frequent this board, as you call it to listen in on people's ideas and experiences, not just gameplay-wise but also their impressions, their "optimism", their enthusiasm, their modding skills, i certainly don't listen in on this board to have people dredge up stuff that was posted months ago.
I frequent it, to gather information from the owners that do have the game, to keep abreast of the latest developments and assist me in eventually purchasing this game, when the time is right.

And I don't think anyone has a problem with that. You're not detracting from the forum at all by doing that. It's the folks that don't have any intention of buying it that have made it their life's purpose to rail against Ubisoft, the developers, the DRM and worst of all, other members by in essence calling them scabs and flogging them for even buying the game, let alone enjoying it. That's the kind of crap I get tired of seeing.
