i think they would be better if replaced by some actual user references....

they could be rotated daily/weekly....

I'll start;

I actually thought it was good to see that the people here have a sense of humour and after playing nearly 1 full season worth of time it's been good to see that the BB team is professional while still retaining a healthy sense of humour.

I like that the BB team can do some friendly mud slinging about their favourite teams or have a joke etc while maintaining the game. I get a chuckle out of things like the quotes on the main page.

It's meant to be a joke.

If a parody quote is going to stop someone from playing a game, then they didn't really want to play anyways.

It really is a non-issue.

RIP88 has pointed out that these "quotes" do indeed give an impression on the game's editors and their conception on the game. They do leave an impression and they are ment to.

And indeed, I agree with RIP88. I read them and thought that I at least don't share the sense of humor this game represents. So we are talking about Corporate Identity ("you never get a second chance to make a first impression").

Of course this is nothing important and I don't think RIP88 claimed so. But why not accept the hint, that these quotes might be countereffective? We have a customer here, giving his opinion on sth he thinks could be improved!

I stand by my original opinion that it's a non-issue, and that if someone reads those quotes and it causes them not to play, then they most likely didn't want to play anyways.

We're talking about two humor-bases quotes on a sports game website - this isn't Congressional policy.

I can light-heartedly agree that we disagree. It is not a matter of importance, so far we even agree.

It is of equal importance as the background-colour of the game, the type of player-faces we supporters can see, any logo that is used by BB and so on...

It is part of the face, the image BB has. And I believe image to be important in order to gain new users. So as a final remark let me stress my point: I do not care about these "quotes" but I do care about the way comments by users on the BB-Image are treated.

Cheers

Are they inside jokes?

Laugh-in was funny when it came out.

Is laugh-in still funny? probably only to its creators...
