Price elasticity??? WHat's that? Doesn't everyone want to pay as much as possible so they can show their friends how rich and cool they are?
Quoted from JWJr:So far, I haven't told anyone (other than She Who Must Be Obeyed) what I paid for my DI/LE...in large part because nobody's asked.
That's even cooler yet! That means people know it's so much that it would be offensive to ask! Well done!
Gary Stern is going to say exactly what he thinks will sell more games. Truth is completely irrelevant.
Quoted from jfh:I think it may be time to close this thread..
Quoted from jfh:First, that's not what the tread was and is supposed to be about.
Second, I had previously asked mods to close it when it got derailed before with burritos and underwear. I have no issue with discussing video games, but that discussion has nothing to do with the topic at hand and is not one I'm particularly interested in. Feel free to open up a thread to talk about anything you want, but have the courtesy not to thread crap.
If no one has anything more to say about how Stern (or JJP) can improve to meet the demands of the operators and enthusiasts who buy their games or related issues then this thread has indeed run its course.
Then drain it. Buh-bye. You don't own the threads you start. If they veer off course, leave them. Stop trying to be a boss on am internet forum.
CRAP!
Quoted from jfh:..
If you can't be civil and courteous enough to stay within bounds, you probably aren't mature enough to participate in the conversation. That SadSack called me out pretty much demonstrates that.
Why do you feel entitled to stifle others? You are the one who has strayed out of bounds.
Quoted from jfh:I'm not stifling anyone, just asking that comments and discussion be posted in the appropriate threads.
This really shouldn't be a difficult concept for an intelligent person to understand.
Tanks fer heppin me ot! Pleez let me no again win its OK ta thimk sumtin differnt.
Quoted from jfh:...If any mods see this, I’d like to close the thread and see new discussion in new/other threads.
I've seen this several times on this board and I'm always disappointed by it. You may have started this thread, but you don't own it. If you are disappointed how this has gone, drain it. It's no big deal, but a lot of people are probably having conversations that have no need whatsoever for you, the OP. You're not their Mommy or Daddy. There's just something really weird about OPs trying to tell others to shut up when the thread goes off track.
To be honest, I haven't read more than 5% of the posts in this thread. I think it brings back memories of the neighborhood kid taking his ball home when a call doesn't go his way.
Quoted from jfh:...If you think the thread is still relevant than contribute to the discussion.
- not Mommy or Daddy
