Taleworlds.com is a site that primarily exists to whore out the Mount&Blade series of games. Unsurprisingly, this function of the site isn't very lulzworthy, as no one could give a fuck less about shitty indie games made by a handful of unwashed Turks.
Forums
Cue the forums to bridge the lulz gap. Populated exclusively by butthurt liberals, raging feminazis, aging eurotrash, and people who desperately want to put on their robes and wizard hats for you, it doesn't take much to plunge the community into the perfect shitstorm. It is useful to think of the place as a slightly less failtastic Reddit: a bit less moralfaggotry, mod abuse, enraged politicking, general ignorance, and desperate cries for peer approval, all with a much more readable interface. Thus, it provides 100% of the daily recommended intake of lulz without the risk of irreversible brain damage.
User Classes
Much like the characters they play as in their craptacular games, forum users, without exception, fall into one of several archetypes.
- Modder: Vaunted as "pillars of the community," these fine, upstanding jackasses create modules for use in the games in an attempt to make them just a bit less shitty. Naturally, the inverse is often the outcome. That being the case, there is always a backlash of constructive criticism, leading modders to respond in the best way they know: "GTFO!" Additionally, modders attract fanboys who are more than eager to flame those who would dare offer critique. This situation is only exacerbated by the fact that modders of note (i.e., the ones who can con someone into downloading their manifestations of stark failure) are granted moderator rights over their own subforums, where they may silence dissent and revise history with impunity in a most Orwellian fashion.
- Sycophant: With these, modders wouldn't exist. Why bother with code if no one is going to fellate your e-peen for it? They are a classic example of the accidental troll; they patrol their preferred modules subforum to answer noob questions with "STFU and figure it out yourself," while spamming every other forum with signatures advertising what you should really be playing. Butthurt is prevalent among them, as any criticism of the work of their personal modder god is met with profound indignation and vicious flaming.
- Sex Fiend: Being a primarily European forum, it won't take long to find one of these. They
