BKGaming: My only question is why the hell do we still have to contact GOG support to change a username. Considering our login is our email this feature should be in our account settings and it's little ridiculous that were still have to do this in this day and age honestly. Even if you want to limit the amount you can change it or something in a given month/year ect would even be acceptable.

Wishbone: Well, other users can't see your login, only your user name, so... Personally, I'm quite happy that every scammer and troll can't just change their outward identity with a few mouse clicks. Also, if people kept changing their user names, I wouldn't know who anybody was, scammers and trolls or not.
True, but as I said limit it. Allow like 1 change a month or every 6 months. I mean you can contact GOG support right now and they will change it for you, so this would simply eliminate the middle man which is GOG support. So even without doing this, anyone can technically change there name it's just slower and more of a pain. If someone is a scammer/ troll I'd imagine GOG bans them by IP if there that big of an issue when reported, and limiting should mostly solve the problem of constant changing.

Some people get tired of having the same old name forever, and now that Galaxy is being released you are forced to use your GOG identity when playing online... should we be stuck with crappy names we selected for a forum while playing online or having to go through the pain that is GOG support? I think a lot of us would like some quick easy way to change it, like Steam...even if it's limited.

Just my 2 cents. :P

That's neat and all, but ever since this site update GOG has slowly felt like its going into the dumps.

I've been around since the beta site, and every single update since has had a bit of hate but ultimately not been bad at all, and as a matter a fact I thought the previous version was just fine. But this version is just terrible. It looks worse than the previous version and it functions like ass. Whats going on over there?

This forum on the other hand has ALWAYS been terrible though. Does anyone remember how long it took them to just add a PM system?

Get your priorities straight! These long time members are mad (and rightfully so) because we expect better of you!

Edit: I can't even change my avatar right now, and the site is constantly asking me to log in even though I already am.

Will the resulting merged forum be moderated, have more rules than /b/ and an off topic section?

The forums will not be merged. Only the account system is being merged.
(See edit point 3 of the OP)

Oh. That would have been a nice excuse for them to get it together at last.

Oh well.
Yesterday there were over 500 spam threads in the Witcher 2 subforum. If you're so buddy-buddy with the REDs, maybe you should think about doing something to keep the subforum devoted to their game usable.

Pull it. Maybe it will put TheJoe out of his misery. XD Jesus that guy makes Robert Smith sound upbeat. :P

For those of you younger folks, Robert Smith was like Radiohead way before Radiohead ever existed. :D

tinyE: Can someone explain to me in small words that I will understand what CD PROJEKT RED is how, if at all, it effects me?

Ciris: If you don't have a CD PROJEKT RED account - this does not affect you.

In short, CD PROJEKT RED is our "sister company", if I may - we are parts of the same business group. We share an office building and do Witcher-y stuff together from time to time, and generally are good friends. :)
Ahh Haa so I caught JudasIscariot lies

You team is doing Witcher-y stuff from time to time, especially in the motion capture studio

Thanks. I've been happy maybe 2 or 3 times in my entire life.

Did it onvolve crudely cut out pictures of Margaret Thatcher and some unbranded butter substitute by any chance? - I ask because you are entirely the market for that with your moderation fixation and all - and right now I'm trying to market a new unbranded butter substitute to weird moderation obsessives!
So the merge seems to have broken their forums a bit. Tried to check my unlocked achievements and it led to an "invalid action" page, and if their thread about it is any indication, some people are suddenly suffering from the forum recognizing them as logged out when they're logged in (sound familiar?).

I'm not even mad. It takes skill to break something as foolproof as a simple vBulletin forum.

doesnt surprise me - now please take your Thatcher fascination back to your own forums (of which you are all too fond of reminding us are so superior to this one) and quit this one (that only requires moderation when we end up with someone begging for moderation - when we do not need moderation by someone such as yourself because thats the most moderate thing that can be done)!

Also, Geoff says "Hello" and "He is a buffoon!" (in regards to you).
