Finding a Needle in a Haystack
Let's face it: it's hard to separate the good information from the bad
on game forums. Darkgolem talks about his mistakes and successes in
finding the truth on the official Dungeons & Dragons Online:
Stormreach (DDO) official forums. He also offers us surefire way to cut
through the chaff and get to the good stuff:
The forums in DDO are full of opinions. Negative and
positive, everyone
finds it necessary to present his opinions of what other people write.
Unfortunately, people too often take these views to be fact. This
problem is compounded when people present their opinions as fact.
Frankly, it drives me up the wall. Its important, in my opinion (heh),
to make sure its clear that you're presenting an opinion--to make
certain people know what you're saying might be wrong.
