How to play teh VN.

First rule about VN is there are no rules in VN. (Except swearing and trolling).

Put on your flame retardant and retard retardant suit before entering the VN.

Peruse the general board for a topic that you are emotional about. Read all the posts. Find something that someone said that you disagree with.

Instead of posting something that is logical and concise, tell everything that what you say is fact and that everyone else in the world feels the same way as you. All while completely ridiculing the person who you disagree with and call them stupid or an idiot.

Defend your post and yourself from all of the other people doing the same thing to you.

Once you get bored of this you can create your own post telling Mythic how you think (with all your gaming genius) they should have made their game. Which will draw new posts from the people you were just defending your other posts from and other people who disagree with what you say.

Ensure that your post count gradually increases so that your VN rank can increase so more people will take you more seriously, which won't happen anyways because people will realize you have no life and all you do all day is post on VN boards complaining and defending your complaints about a video game from which you probably don't play that much anyways because VN is more fun to you.

Once your post count is high wait for MarkJacobsEA to make a post so that you may post something on his thread so he might possibly read what you have to say. When in all honesty he probably sits there and laughs about how stupid his playerbase is and how worked up they get about anything inconsequential. Then he makes a random post quoting someone, which creates more stupid assinine posts of people trying to be heard by the man.

VN is a nasty beast, but if you can get through all the crap and can find that little gem that actually helps you in the game then it's all worth it. Plus it keeps you busy at work if you're bored. Just don't get caught up in the RvR of the VN. When you make posts make then logical and concise and ensure that people realize that what you are posting is of your own opinion and that you're not trying to speak for the masses that don't exist.
