Sweeping generality about newer players today.
Suggestion of being in good with one of the Devs and thus knowing more than the mere riffraff posting on the boards.
Pompous dismissal of all other possible viewpoints as therefore lacking legitimacy.
"How do you know you are on the side of good?" a Paragon citizen asked him. "How can we even know what is 'good'?"
"The Most High has spoken, even with His own blood," Melancton replied. "Surely we know."

Sweeping generality about the old folks today.
Ill-mannered, erotic interpretation of player's claimed relationship with one of the Devs.
Offer to borrow hamster commented upon in earlier post to assist with consummation of player-dev relations.
Clever quip.

Passing remark about the poster's pathetic use of ad hominem attacks
Immediate usage of ad hominem attacks on poster in return, ultimately comparing him unfavorably to a whiny child
Pious assertion of sticking to the matter at hand, no matter the provocation
Invocation of "Lrn2play" and its ilk

Out of context misquotation of developer comment to prove game's imminent demise.

Gratingly snarky comment about the poster for having any concern whatsoever for the longevity of the game
Pompous declaration about having played the game during beta and ever since
Haughty assertion that had CuppaJo remained, the banstick would be clobbering the poster and all others expressing such opinions; this conclusion is derived from close association with CuppaJo developed during (you guessed it) Beta Back In The Day
Curt remark regarding the quoted developer's low standing in the overall pantheon of red names with Bonus Implication that their opinion on anything is therefore worthless
"How do you know you are on the side of good?" a Paragon citizen asked him. "How can we even know what is 'good'?"
"The Most High has spoken, even with His own blood," Melancton replied. "Surely we know."
Sarcastic comment that gets taken seriously and provokes many angry responses.

Much *fist shaking*; both literal and figurative
Offer to meet up in a PvP Zone
Unflattering intimations about poster's manhood and resulting unlikely appearance in said PvP Zone
"How do you know you are on the side of good?" a Paragon citizen asked him. "How can we even know what is 'good'?"
"The Most High has spoken, even with His own blood," Melancton replied. "Surely we know."
Expression of surprise that thread still exists.
Almost humorous one-liner.

Returning player commenting about how back in there day there was never rants like this. Personal view that up coming content is the only thing bring this game back from the brink of failure. Random comment about how the OP got it all wrong and must be playing to long to see the 'truth' and just needs a brake.
Random request and questions that even new players should know suggesting 'returning' player might be old and senile and/or mistaking this game for an unrelated game.

Usual excuse of not searching properly, but figuring this would be the best place to rant;

Promises of rage quitting if this keeps up!!! angry face angry face angry face!!! First the rikti and then the mitos and then the then the then the !!!!

i17 Update:
Sneering reference to market interface. Use of brackets and the words 'golf clap' in reference to Ultra Mode. Harsh invective regarding marketing! Notation of empty servers!
Use of bold-face to emphasize lack of content! Sober reminder that the game engine is over six years old and thus obsolete.
Personal attack aimed at forum contributors who laud the game's achievements! A scathing indictment!
References to upcoming MMOs and their inevitable superiority!
Aside pointing out knowledge of customer service!
An angry salutation.

Rude comment about interaction with dev's mama.....bold-type to represent yelling to GET THIS FIXED NAO!...compare-oranges-to-apples statement siting that 'another' game is somehow superior....another bold-type demand, including a two-sentence whine. Attack and name call any other forum poster who disagrees, even politely. Rude comment about interaction with posters' mamas.....calls the devs more names, comparing them to brainless, overpaid do-nothing slackers who ignore players. Last bold-type demand to fix the game or else.

Generic Response citing that could not be bothered reading entire thread.
Nonsensical comment about rnadom posts throughout the thread.
Obscure reference meant as a joke but will likely confuse people.
Likening of several posters to historical figures.
Obscure discussion of whether or not Likening is an actual word.
