Oddworld: Hand Of Odd: Canclled?

[Holy Sock]

If you answer their questions, they'll stop asking.

Fallacy.

Obviously, you've never seen Field of Dreams.

We should really force new members to read an article stating what OWI is doing at the moment and lists the names of games that have been canned. They then would have to answer a few questions about that article so we are sure they are up to date when they are actually allowed to post.

who is with me?

[Sekto Springs]

I think we should make a questionnaire asking the same questions that new members are always making whole new threads to ask, and disallow them from posting their own threads until they've done the research and gotten every answer correct.

[Holy Sock]

Or make a sticky thread telling everyone about the current status of Oddworld?

[Nath]

I'm with Xav on this one

Oddworld Questions and Answers is stickified, and we all see how well that works out.

In all fairness I've been here for fucking ever and oddmob is news to me. I'm a bad old member.

Oddworld Questions and Answers is stickified, and we all see how well that works out.

People aren't going to read numerous pages of Oddworld related questions and answers hoping their questions will pop up. I say make a specific thread dealing with the current activity of Oddworld, make it easy to read and update the op.

Then people can just direct people to that topic instead of all these long winded questions and answers regarding the current status of Oddworld.

I don't think you get it. Its not about reading it. Its about fucking using it. If they have a question, they should post it in there. Questions and Answers isn't an established FAQ, its a place to ask questions so you don't clutter up GD with threads like "WHEN NEXT OW GAME ALREADY THX LOL".

Even if there was an established FAQ, I still doubt they would read it. The proof is in the pudding, there's an established thread for asking questions, and people don't use it. Logic dictates that if you made an established thread on OM's sitrep, they still wouldn't read it.

Holy Sock's idea is a good one. It will get seen by some people, and those that don't see it can be readily redirected to it. Hell, there is already such a thread, but it needs updating.

It's just finding the time to do that.

[STM]

Wow, nice one Sock! You gave Max and idea!

[Holy Sock]

Good for me I guess.

[Nate]

We had the Citizen Siege thread stickified for that very reason. Too bad it fell out of date.

[ODDWORLDisTHEbest!]

why are people saying that new members should'nt post because they know nothing? yes i'm fairly new but i know alot about oddworld, just becuse i'm quite new at the forums doesn't make me a loser, nor any other new members.

[Josh]

We are saying look up your facts about cancelled games from about six years ago before posting up pointless threads.

[STM]

Everyone goes through the 'Noob' stage OitB I'm sorta still going through it after two years! Just check your knowledge.

Oops, just saw what Josh posted. great minds think a like.

[ODDWORLDisTHEbest!]

yes i'm new but i'm not inexperienced, i just didnt know about it being cancelled as my internets not been working for months.

[Josh]

It's okay baby, we all go through dry spells. Just close your eyes and relax. I'll show you some 'experience'.

[STM]

This kid reminds me so much of my first days! Remember my first blog posts? With's Havoc stranger erotica and all?

[OANST]

yes i'm new but i'm not inexperienced, i just didnt know about it being cancelled as my internets not been working for months.

My internets had spiders once.

[MeechMunchie]

Where are my fish?
In teh nets!

[Wil]

Don't make another thread get closed, you jerks. I've been without Internet for a few days, and I'm eager to infract some people.

[ODDWORLDisTHEbest!]

back to the topic.. well, there really isnt much topic left...

[Luskan]

what the hells going on...

[ODDWORLDisTHEbest!]

i dunno, hey whered you get that cool slig pic for your avatar?

[Wil]

Ask personal questions via PM. Well done, you got your own thread closed.

Don't worry, it wasn't a solo effort.
