Will you use Blizzard forums or stick with Diablofans?
I just posted this as to show appreciation for this community. Never change guys. I just took a trip over to the official forums, and have been stopping by there lately, but after today i probably won't be going back.
The most popular posts seem to be the most ignorant posts, very few people want to have a discussion about the game, and i just went into a thread about a game i'm looking forward to playing for months/years (not Diablo 3, but another "appetizer" game I've been anxious for) and much to my surprise, the thread wasn't excited fans, or people wanting to chat about the game, or players to meet up for multiplayer with, but it instead was was one fan (who made the thread) who was excited like i am, and the rest of the thread was haters hating, people chiming in how horrible the game was, and the kicker was one guy thought it'd be hilarious to post multiple times in the thread, the biggest spoiler in the game. Yeah it's not a huge deal, but that kind of turned me off from being a part of that "community"
So with that said, its looking more and more like i'm going to be a lifer here. I dont like incgamers for personal reasons, but mainly because if you were to take all the posts over at incgamers and put them all in a blender, they'd be slightly the color of "whine" and "complain". Here however, there's a marked lack of whining, the mods are on top of their game, and i'd almost swear most of the people here are legitimately excited for Diablo 3 and legitimately wanna talk about it. Dont change guys and gals and mods, thanks for makin this place awesome!

Sigh...yeah it looks like i'm a lifer here. I dont like incgamers either cause theres too much whining. Here however, there's a marked lack of whining and i'd almost swear most of the people here are legitimately excited for the game and legitimately wanna talk about it. Dont change.
[edit] sorry...venting.
Why would the official diablo 3 forums be any different then the WoW forums?
Big franchise always have a mass of ignorant followers, that is why don'tnt bother with them
I get the exact same impression whenever I look through some of their threads. Diablofans truly does have a great community here and I'm glad to be back

I like the forums here though.
Yeah, up until this point i'd hoped they would be a good resource for info/debate etc. I logged into them the moment they opened up and had high hopes. But now it's turning into a similar situation to seeing growing up with someone, whom later throws their life away to drugs, or worse: second life and you just watch the descent and theres nothing you can do.
But really im not going to make my posts in this thread become infected with depression, the point i'd like to make is that this is quite the awesome community.
I agree. Anything bnet related is full of WoW players and pointless threads.
Diablo Fans is where its at. The mods here are also really good about locking down pointless threads. I should know I've had a few of mine locked down, and for good reason!
you should idle in the irc chat and subscribe to their youtube channels

No doubt I'll stay here. Only reason I'd post on the official forums was to try to get a blue's attention on something. Which would be unlikely to happen anyway.
I'm staying here the official forums are too full of trolls and the mods here close troll-threads here as if it were a game of whack-a-mole. That and the player base here actually is capable of (gasp) logical discussion.
Ugh dude I feel the same way. I get discouraged just reading the blue tracker, and their responses to people. I actually stopped watching youtube vids of the fnf, because I swear to god if I hear another person ask where their attribute points went, or if they can change the angle of the camera, I'm going to implode and create a singularity Oo
Side note, yep this website is where i go for mah news =D only joined / knew about it a month ago tomorrow, but in a way I'm glad, because if I had to sit in here for like 5 years like I do now, refeshing 435 times a day, I think my brain would have killed me out of pity.

HELL YEA WE DO!!!!!!!!!
That one made my day lol...No doubt I'll be here playing whack-a-mole for D3!

Definitely sticking around here. The official forums very rarely have a great must-read post. But mostly it is a bunch of screaming and yelling... once you sift out the whining and complaining.
I'm staying right here...YOU CANT MAKE ME MOVE!!!!!!!!!

If you want to arrange it
This world you can change it
If we could somehow make this
Christmas thing last
By helping a neighbor
Or even a stranger
And to know who needs help
You need only just ask
And, there is no mod on this earth that can make Desmondtiny move.

sticking here for sure. Anyone who actually uses the bliz forums is doing it wrong. Even when I played WoW I still used MMO. Bliz forums are just troll troll troll, noob noob noob, troll troll troll, noob noob noob, herp derp, derp herp, herpderpderpherp.
That is all.

Hopefully we will all still be here in this community...
Mainly being the elitist viewpoint and attitude on blizzards official forums, along with the kiddies that are present.
I'm sure I'll lurk over there, but I will definitly be staying with Diablofans.com Formerly Diablo3.com
