So we all see them from time to time on our feeds kicking and screaming their troll lololo and causing others more than discomfort yet driving others away. Some of us delete them and still yet others feed them, and in my case I like to bring them out in the light and show them for who they really are.
Case in point; this last April Fools we saw many great articles abounding on MMOSite with all kinds of subjects and different levels of writing, yet in all they were in good taste and good humor. Alas some of us and our friends and/or family were subject to trolling in response to our sincere appreciation of this wacky holiday the world shares.
A forum friend of mine Pelagato wrote a nice article that was short and sweet, easy to tell it was a April Fools joke yet for some reason people just ra

Salem is a fantastical crafting mmo set in the era of New England, with players taking the role of intrepid colonists from the Old World seeking to make lives for themselves in America. Salem offers unique crafting, farming and building systems inspired by the mid 17th century Alchemy Gothic.

This game features: Massive Multiplayer Online Role Playing Game structures, Persistent and mutable world that can be shaped and sculpted by the players directly, Crafting, Farming, player made structures with the unique building system, and of course the Open World PvP combat with permanent death... what is the catch? None it is completely free to play!

So you ask where can you get it? Well the beta sign up is right here!

I found the Crime and Punishment segment for people wondering about how it

Hey everyone,

I was getting a team together for conducting some Wakfu LP's and guides for the NA Nox launch this coming February 29th. I have a crew of 3 already and need more. We ideally would have one person to represent the best of each class that would assist watchers in understanding class mechanics, builds and utilization.

If you are interested in joining the team please Private Message me with the following information:

Your reserved In Game Name, that you will be using when you start on the 29th.

What class you would prefer to main.

What classes you would enjoy as alternates that you are both knowledgeable of and familiar with.

I will keep an eye here and post updates in the comments as the list fills up. I look forward to having a great time with you all online soon :3

So for those of you looking forward to this game we have some great news coming your way! Recently it was announced during the Red 5 Studios Destructoid Interview that there was a 6th Battleframe still yet to be released to the public. However, in the creation of the CosPlay it was inadvertently leaked that the Frame used by the CosPlayer Morningstar is wearing the top secret unreleased frame yet to be announced publicly.

There is a lot of grins and smiles as the Dev’s continue to dangle things just out of reach as we grasp for more information. If you missed the interview you can take a look at it here: Q and A with the Firefall Devs.

Taking a moment to look into this we see the leak in the second CP vid below.

The buzz is in the air and gamers around the world are up in digital arms against the coroprate masses that look to profit from PIPA and SOPA, namely the ESA. Currently in the corporate world ESA has positioned itself as the main representative of the online gaming community world wide... without the consent of, well, us the gaming community.

So now comes the call to the gaming community to ask our favorite gaming sites, bloggers and news feeders to take the Pledge. That pledge is to not attend the E3 for 2012 unless ESA changes its stance and opposes SOPA and PIPA directly. Since E3 is the main funding source for ESA the boycott of its money machine is the greatest tool of leverage we have against this corporate giant stealing our thunder.

SO, if you are for the gaming commun

Mid afternoon on January 16th Grummz, Red 5 CEO, made a community announcement that they will be joining the League For Gamers movement in Washington D.C. In his commentary Grummz stated:

"If ever there was a time to have the Firefall army rise up. this is it!
If your are pissed about SOPA, PIPA and how the ESA has turned its back on gamers by supporting this legislation, join us. We just founded LFG, or League For Gamers. it is a non-profit group dedicated to representing gamers and like minded devs in Washington.
To kick it off, Red 5 has donated $50,000 to the cause. Sign up on the site, like our Facebook page, and sign the petition to stop the ESA from supporting Protect IP which is still going up for vote.

Recently FadedPez, Community Coordinator for Firefall Forums, announced an up and coming live stream event:
