Quoted from f3honda4me:So you're allowed to post about your issues as many times as you want, but I'm not allowed to post about my lack of issues?
I post this because newcomers or others who haven't been following get this idea that JJ POTC is some massively problem ridden shit show of a pin that is unreliable and has nothing but a ton of issues. The reality is the opposite. From launch through recent weeks, that never crossed anyone's minds. People posted issues - IF they found any, as just like any complex machine, sporadic issues crop up and if someone gets the pin they might have a similar issue and the info was consolidated by zaphx so people could find the answer in case they had a repeat problem that someone else had a solution for.
Fast forward to today, and because of a handful of people beating a dead horse, posting the same things over and over, and in some cases even trying to seemingly manufacture more people having issues than actually are, there is this notion that JJPOTC is a problem ridden pin and the sky is falling.
You're allowed to post whatever and wherever you wish. But I...am...saying you go out of your way, weekly, to inform people that feel they have issues, that their concerns are invalid. That's a crap attitude to take, not just once, but frequently.
Your stance isn't accurate. I haven't told you not to state anything at all. What I am saying is how you vocalize your lack of issues is purposefully worded in a way that's diminishing to others. You actively go out of your way to tell people that feel they have issues, that those issues have no validity. That would be akin to me saying, "oh, of course you've had problems all along" every time you state you haven't. (And from what I recall reading...you do have sling damage, bit it just doesn't bother you.) Why on earth would I go out of my way, to actively tell you your own words are hollow?
It's funny you mention zaphX as half of my bookmarked posts from before buying the game, were by him. Four months back, he littered that thread daily with half a dozen issues he was experiencing. I didn't post then, and tell him not to be concerned. I've messaged him multiple times thanking him for the problem solving he underwent to every owner's potential benefit. So how are these current issues being raised, any less valuable in being heard, weighed, and problem solved?
Regarding potential owners, as I stated above, I read the terror storm of posts from multiple owners for months prior to buying, and I STILL did. Were you concerned for me as a buyer then? Should I not speak out if I get my new game, and can't even lower the playfield properly? Isn't that something I should ask about on here, and speak directly with JJP about? Man, if you're so concerned with my quality or lack of quality control issues regarding my game, maybe you could alleviate some of my anxiety in coming and working the overtime I've undertaken to afford this game? Otherwise, please allow me to vocalize my concerns, sans feeling anxious about your approval, or anyone else's for that matter.
