This game looks to be damn fun. All this...RTS/action game with 64 player multiplayer, mod capable (steam workshop), and built in map editor and all for $9.99 I can't imagine why the hell I wouldn't want it! Before anyone says it, yes this has been other places, Game looks good and i want to make sure the servers are packed!

I can't figure out if this is spam or not. Previews and store links for a game that isn't out for another week. If I "need a Steam game" now, this is useless to me. It's so borderline that I'm going to report you on general principle. Please try not to behave like a spam bot or astroturfer in the future.

Edit: I do realize this kind of "lets get hyped up for something coming soon" post is standard operating practice on the Penny Arcade forums and similar places. Lets not do it here!

Trust me this place isn't exactly a melting pot of great intellect more of a copy PCGAMER nothing else. As for spam, No hype? yea.

Go back to one of the hundreds of post about Masseffect 3. Dont like it thats fine. Trolling however is counter productive

So tell me: What did you hope to achieve by antagonizing the very people you were hoping to rope in?

I'm going to do you a favour and give you a little advice.

Isn't going to earn you many friends, especially the first one. Attacking the community you're posting isn't a bright idea, you know?

I think you should relax and try to take things more easy because that attitude isn't a friendly one.
Look I'll even re-redact your first response to something more civilized, you might use it if you want:

Sorry if it seemed like spam. It wasn't my intention. I'm just hyped about this game and wanted to share it with like minded people. I'm sorry if you don't like this kind of posts but maybe other people are interested.

And before you jump. No, I'm not trolling you (at least not in this post). I'm just trying to give you advice in how not to behave. Because frankly, you weren't very nice with your first response.

Same thing People wanted when they made similar post...awareness. As for the response and typical PC-antisocial behavior, thats...not really my concern. Up there with asking advice on an imageboard. You get what you get.

Indeed. I only need to see the first response to get a general feel on how the forum carries itself. You initiate rude post, dont be shocked on the response.

The mature thing would have been to say" thx but ive seen it already" or "nah its not really my thing" Immidiate accusations on being a spambot is frankly a dick move. One Im not shocked by, because Ive lurked the forums longer than ive been a member, you can tell that on my article post.

PC-antisocial behavior? Like attacking an entire community because of a single post you didn't like?

Ok, nice to have met you then.

I'm aware you're kind of a dick.

Will that suffice?

See, I'm someone who takes issue with Bobtree's initial reply because I think it's fair enough to hype a game you're genuinely interested in. Afterall, isn't there another thread for Guild Wars 2, and a one for Diablo 3, Grim Dawn etc., none of which have been released? Simultaneously, I can't actually side with Brothabbear who's coming across as a bit of a prat.

Ah well. Back to my limited scope of the "What have you been playing?" and "What have you been reading?" threads.

Since you're clearly affiliated with the developer or publisher I think it's worth making it clear that these kind of spam-posts tend to put me off the game in question by default, and being an asshole for no reason doubly so.
