First part of what you quote is
Feel free to see GOG as only a store. The same way as a Pop & Mom is a store, or the same way as a Mall is a store. You see them both as store, no personal interaction. I do make the distinction between an impersonal store and a more personal one.

The same place I see "Trivia time!" and "Trading offers!" and "What I'm going to do now!" parts.
Most discussions in the GOG forums ebb and flow like the conversation in a pub. While we may start talking about the recent football match, the discussion may turn towards what car the main striker drives, then complains about the damages my car has had, then back to the fact that the penalty that was awarded to the home team wasn't one. The discussion was (and is) still about the football match, even if cars came into it. If the other participants think cars is not something of that discussion, they ignore it and continue talking about the football game

Again, I'm not asking a store owner if I should get the games here or elsewhere (though you may be interested in the "Cheaper Price Guarantee" some stores use), I am accepting the discussion between gamers that some good games are on sale, and unfortunately GOG doesn't have them.

I buy my games on GOG because they are on GOG. Not because of their price. But then again, I don't see GOG as a store, so it's people loyalty, not store loyalty. If someone is interested in what store gives him the better deal, then he may be interested in getting the cheaper price.

So as I said at first, GOG isn't just a store. They do offer more, part of which is their community. A community that is open minded and can rationally discuss any matter, gaming or not, and not a rigid community that cuts posts out of a thread for being Off-Topic, or that doesn't allow discussing specific matters. As long as the community behaves, all kind of discussions are tolerated.

Aren't they?
