Double Standard of PW complainers

Funny is the thought that comes to mind at first when you read the lists of woes that people have against GMs, PW, evil guilds, and for the sake of being over-evaluative: evil manbearpigs. The idea is that the game is supposed to protect the rights of gamers everywhere, and it is up to the complainers to bring the game closer to level 3 communism, a state of kisses, lollipops, and sunshine unicorns.
Life isn't fair though, PW has too many complainers and its starting to sound like the same old waltz played to the tune of "I know a song that gets on everybuddy's nerves!". Very much like this:
(GMs/ Guild / Someone ) does something.
(Players/Guild/Person) feels threatened and post threads of their feelings.
(Other players/guilds/person) feels that this post is right/wrong and spawn additional posted threads
(Even more players/guilds/person) suddenly has an opinion on the matter and the battle spills unto the general chat in long lists.
(Threads get locked/fade into obscurity/official thread made)
Although I am not saying you shouldn't complain, infact I love how whiners change the system for the better (sometimes). I am not so happy whenever it is done in a self righteous manner. It is not imperative for example to bash the GMs over moderatorship, yet a loud minority create a fuss that otherwise is not a big deal, for example, if you go up to a average player in the game and ask them to name 3 GMs and 1 Moderator for you, you will probably hit: "I don't know" ... oh wait "i dun no" would be the actual response.
Yet, complainers will often times be the first ones to make problems themselves simply by stirring controversy. It just doesn't make sense. Why would you create problems unless you are a problem to be dealt with ? Oh no, I believe there is a need for a Deux Ex Machina.
Chuck Norris: In conclusion, if your going to complain, PLEASE complain about something useful like the usury of the gold system and the obvious bugs in the game , not complain about random generic **** such as GM corruption, How RQ is killing everyone, and how people are choosing stupid names (although I must say that anyone called xXSepherothXx13376969 can get on your nerves, especially if he/she speaks broken english) but those arn't important, because at the end of the day all MMOrpgs will always have GM partiality (its a given, if your nice to someone, they will be nice to you), always have a powerful guild that steps on everyone else, and they will always have people who need to make names that are subpar.

That made my day. I found this post^ quite entertaining to read.
Hmm I guess I belong in the "(Even more players/guilds/person) suddenly has an opinion on the matter and the battle spills unto the general chat in long lists." category.0 -
Id like to see a not so **** chat system in game and allowing me to respect in game without using their stupid cash shop to buy some note. The game itself has some flaws but plays well overall.0

The problem with our PKing isn't that we stomp everyone. I mean, we do. But it's that nobody realizes we stomp everyone. Everyone thinks we stomp only them and they get all offended. They take it personally and think we are specifically hunting their guild - which isn't the case at all. We just kill everyone. We don't really pick favorites.
Anyway, on topic, complaining is just negative feedback. Some of it is less polite than others.[SIGPIC][/SIGPIC]
