A few users are discussing the fact that giving rep in Off-Topic is disabled: Should it be re-enabled and why?
Ralle's birthday was last month! Wish him a merry Christmas if you feel like it.
This will be the last news batch written by me. I do not know if another Staff member will continue the batches, but should you be interested in writing them, make a thread in Staff Contact about it.

Map Preview Images doesn't work for me and damn we only got 2 spells this month.

LastMessager · May 9, 2013

It's funny, you use so much icons and stuff from starcraft when making those batches, yet the game is basically absent from the site - if you look at the activity about it. It's not your fault though, it's funny how some running the site feel better having the place as a playerground for 13-17 year olds of a game that is too old and too dead to be played when even Dota is being replaced by Dota 2, LoL.

It's hilarious how the place is about new games, when all know this is nothing but a place for die hards such as Areoblyctos and a bunch of other names.

It's also pathetic how closed this community is - living in its own world, making its own maps that no one (pretty much) outside this community plays.

Hating maps such as Dota that have gained popularity unlike their very unpopular maps.

The more you keep this place so War3 oriented for n00bs who can't buy one damn game cause mommy didn't give enough pocket money, the more this place will fall apart.

I feel pleasure that I stopped using this community's forum, I do not want to post in the poor threads around, I was just observing the place and just had to give you, like one final eyes-opening message. The fact that you keep members like trolman, fladdermasken that have not been banned so far and tards of such kind with completely retarded threads in Offtopic - speaks for itself, this place is utter crap. So, Ralle does not have to worry about it because I have no intention to spam with accounts, nor waste my time with that, there won't be any other accounts for it.

This doesn't make any sense. This place is not for new games.

And yet there are still thousands of people playing your so called "old and dead" Warcraft. No, don't tell me they only play dota and td maps cause believe it or not those maps still need Warcraft to be played.

I wonder if you're the guy that keep saying he won't make a post anymore but keep posting just for some random attention.

LastMessager · May 9, 2013

^ You don't make sense, ok not only for new Blizz games but still...

The Hive is a WarCraft 3 and StarCraft 2 modding community.

D3 forum, if that's not new games what is it? - with such thinking no wonder the ignorance when someone expects this place to move on. I've been observing the place, the haters of new games that 'kill War3' pfhahaha - bs, can't accept that it is th years that kill it.

And yet there are still thousands of people playing your so called "old and dead" Warcraft.

Yes thousands Asians like you who are kids who can't buy one new game, I know I know. Cause even their war3 is not legit in most of those who you mention.

wonder if you're the guy that keep saying he won't make a post anymore but keep posting just for some random attention.

Those who need to know, know who I am. And I am not posting to be unknown, I am saying what I told Ralle in Admin contact but seeing how this place gets ridiculous I offered every normal person with common sense to change this place.

Not my fault that some search results redirected me to hiveworkshop only to see the same crappyness and this is like the last time Im gonna say it, then turn this into bigger crap with the community of WAR3 DIE HARD NoobZ - i will be just laughing from the side and not take part.

This was like final attempt to make you improve the place and kick out all th die-hards and put them in some old forums while making way for newer Blizz games but no - the die hards greatly outnumber. Also kick out all these shitty Offtopic threads and the ones who make them - Nooo - they must stay.

So suit yourself

Racist, as if you met/befriended an Asian before, not all have parents who give them money every time they want some. You base your opinion from the usual Asians in the internet. Not to mention that Asia is a big continent.

And for the main topic of your post. I'm not really one to speak as I'm not as active as I am before, but I still believe that the part of the forum who focus on the modding part of Warcraft 3 still looks bigger than many new(crappy, cliche) games that we see this days.

And if I prefer to join a community for a new game I'll most likely join a forum who just focus on that area instead of joining a forum who offers a room for a lot of games. Saves the time reading post who bash your game from other people who supports other game.

lol. Agreed Almia

Send you a VM regarding this :

This will be the last news batch written by me. I do not know if another Staff member will continue the batches, but should you be interested in writing them, make a thread in Staff Contact about it.

@SonofJay
Err.... What message are you quoting? Can't find them

sonofjay · May 9, 2013

They moved the posts on a more specific section. I don't really care about the leftovers of the conversation.

Do you think I'll be talking on myself here?

I'm sure it's somebody, but since you don't quote their names, I'm curious

Racist

Saying what statistically the majority of people in Garena and that still play War3 aka Asians and me pointing that out mkaes me a racist?

Listen up kid, learn to argue properly before you even start, cause that was dumb

as if you met/befriended an Asian before

As a matter of fact, I have met and befriended some, not gamers though. Still arguing unprepared...

Vengeancekael · May 9, 2013

Fixed Map Preview images and added Multi-Hut to Modeling Spotlight.

Messiah · May 9, 2013

Racist, as if you met/befriended an Asian before, not all have parents who give them money every time they want some.

Statistically the majority of players in Garena is Asians, the majority of them is playing war3 without even having the game, Racism? Because I point out the majority is from Asia I am racism, learn ti fucking argue.

Also Ive met and befriended Asians, not gamers though, so again you argue unprepared. Stop... kiddie
