WE DON'T WANT PEOPLE TO HATE DWARF FORTRESS BECAUSE OF US I full heartedly second the locking of "DF is better than X" threads as routine.

[Kingbodz]

Also all creators of these threads should get a message from a mod saying if they do it again they'll be banned. DF is niche enough without people thinking its fans are mean. We need the community to grow not stagnate.

What do you people have against stagnant things...

A stagnant community will soon be a dead community. No offense to you.

I know. I saw the opportunity to make a poorly put joke about my name, so I took it.

[Urist McVoyager]

Joke accepted, truth established. 

[Kingbodz]

I should make a thread on this. Where would be a good place?

[Urist McVoyager]

Submit a message to ThreeToe about it and get his thoughts. He should be able to find a proper place to post it.

Will do. Thanks.

Minecraft is single-unit 3D game and DF is multi-unit top-down view game. That's all the difference for me. And I'm more into strategy type of games, so regardless of modding capabilities, graphics quality or community, I just neither want to play this type of game with first-person view nor want to control only one character. So it's totally impossible to compare them.

[Urist McVoyager]

You just did.

Okay, nobody likes these threads but this seems a little hyperactive.

I feel everyone should be banned for everything. Innocence proves nothing, after all.

Not really. Hell, let's face it. The rivalries between all fandoms are part of the reason games in general are still seen as the realm of idiotic manchildren living in their parents' basements. Stomping the shit out of that will go a long way to building up credibility. It'll certainly help us gain more players and readers.

Gamers aren't seen like that anymore.  Threads like this are rare (where is the most recent one other than this?).  Anyway a more gentle response would be a lot more in the spirit of the inclusive community  than "stomping" on people is.
