Yeah pretty much my main issue is that people were attacking me from the get go, and then the downvoting system... you really need to remove that because it just encourages everyone to be hostile to each other...
I understand things got off to a bumpy start for you here. Sorry about that, but welcome back to the forums. Please realize that we do read forum threads like the beg list and we do look at the wanted list (even still!), so it's not like your vote doesn't count. Unfortunately, wanting doesn't always make it so. We are working hard to bring you guys all of the great classics you could hope for, but it takes time for any game to arrive here, and some games may never make it to the catalog. :(
Every forum has its own unwritten rules of behavior. I think you'll find the crowd here is a pretty good bunch if you try to meet them halfway. ;)
Edit: pursuant to that last point, continuing to quote a thread about necro posting on a different forum doesn't equate to a solid explanation on this one. Since I'm more or less the only mod on these forums--when I have time and am not running the Marketing department--let me clarify: post on old threads if you like. No one here minds that too much, as long as you're furthering a discussion. Resurrecting a dozen old threads in an hour with a post that is more or less "get this game!" has the same effect on a forum reader as starting a dozen threads on that topic in an hour, which is probably where the friction comes from. It's not the fact that you are posting want threads. It's that you have posted so many.
