Close this one thread, and guess what will happen. Yes, you guessed it.

Having one thread on this topic is reasonable in my opinion.

I did consider locking the thread for a while but I think it's still a valid topic providing people stick to it. If it degenerates any further into personnel comments then we are going to have issues......and you don't want me to have issues do you :evil:

As long as commanders have outstanding issues with E: D regarding the offline mode, it's a valid topic/thread.

Closing the thread because some people choose to become personal or argue that the topic/thread is boring would be misunderstanding the issue. Reprimanding those very people to stay on target or stay away from the thread would in my opinion be more relevant.

I will continue to visit this thread as long as I have an outstanding issue with E: D and FD regarding the offline mode.

Yeah, keep this thread open. If people fall out they fall out but I think on these forums it can be dealt with anyway. Sometimes things can be taken too personally and I am one who has fallen victim to my own sensitivities in the past so I'm not pointing fingers.

The offline issue has really upset people and although I'm not so pissed off with it I can see the reasons for their narked stance and think if anything this is a good place to sound off.

I haven't read through everything here, but:

Maybe they're slick enough to try to create a "double-sale" by offering you to buy the game again as a single player game when the servers close?

Had I not been so lazy I'd have created a Meme with Frontier wearing a " Scumbag-Steve" Meme-hat to prove my point ;P

Even if it happens, it won't be any time soon. Better you guys just move on.
