You know... I don't post often here. I bought Interstate 76 here after discovering this site, and I read the the threads every so often, and I'd like to be more active but I just don't get as much time as I'd like for forums.
But I just went over to 2K's forums to read up about Civ 5. Wow. There are some serious jerks over there. I mean, I know most YouTube comments transcend moronic. I realize a lot of political blogs just degrade into left/right bashing. But I didn't expect the Civ 5 community to be so... full of (insert profanity here).
And I like a good fight. I'm not really a stranger to flamewars. But I like a fight about something that matters, and I like to leave people's mothers out of it... you know?
Well, it made me notice something I thought I'd take a minute to say... This is a good community. It's fun, smart, active, and civil. I'm glad I found this place. I'm going to try to make more time to hang out here.
GOG does more than gaming right... they do community right.
