Why do we need to stop him? It's not as if he's arguing anything. He just calls everybody who doesn't agree with him a moron.

My question is whether there is enough intelligent power to stop the Codex from taking Volourn serious.

Volourn said:
DEAD is when is a game gone. Buried. Irrelevant. Period.

A classic game is also a DEAD game. To me, the Fos and BGs are classics but also DEAD.

NWN is a classic; but it is not DEAD *yet*. It will be; but not yet.

I'm now confused by your *DEAD* Status of games. On the obsidian forums you state:

Overall Thoughts: I love this game thus far. NWN2 is gonna need to accomplish a lot to beat this for GOTY for me. That's pretty aamzing consideirng that FF12 wasn't even on my radar 'til this week and I've been anxiously awaiting NWN2 for 2+ years now. Yes, FF12 is that good - thus far. Best FF since FF8, imo. Only two hours in though. LOL My non apologizes for those who loathed FF8.

FF8 (Sep 07, 1999) is OLDER than BGII (Sep 24, 2000). But for some reason BGII is DEAD but FF8 is not?? o.O

Are you disabled? As much as I hate Volourn, usually, you might notice - or not - that he only MENTIONS FF8. Nothing is said about its dead/not_dead status. Just because he /mentions/ that game that doesn't mean it isn't dead as per Vollie's definition. I might say "Dark Heart of Uukrul had better puzzles than [insert RPG here that is not Wizardry 4]", and it would be true, even if DHoU IS dead.

Didn't Volourn complain earlier about comparing games to to DEAD games?
So if he thinks FF8 is dead he is comparing FF12 to a DEAD game, if it is not he needs to explain why that is so.

Stop trying to hold Volourn to standards of rational thought and disputation.

PERIOD.
