[QUOTE="swrushing, post: 1651632, member: 14140"] [/QUOTE] Do we all need a group hug? I think this is the first thread of yours i ever read. I remember seeing you have a marvel thing or something but i dont usually get into character interpretation threads. If i had to hazard a guess, and based on what i saw here, you probably garner about the same amount of discussion and disagreement as most anybody does. Every gamer is different and has different focuses. Most people who agree tend to just say "great", "thanks" etc and are rathe r short. Most who disagree dont just want to plug in and say "well its not good" or "i dont like it." without giving reasons. Its that whole sense of criticism vs fussing. Saying "i dont like it" and leaving it at that is unproductive. Saying why you dont like something, even giving examples or references from experience, is often preferred to just saying that you do not prefer. So, i would expect that people will give you their reasons, more often than not. if that bothers you, thats something for you to think about before posting to a "discussion" board as opposed to just posting to a web page people can read but not respond to. Do you notice how you just dismissed the contrary posts as coming from closed minded people, people who have "already made up their mind"? The defensiveness you showed in the thread sort of makes the whole "I dont really mind either way" thing lack emphasis. If you dont care, dont get so defensive and mildly antagonistic in responses. I think the obvious response here is that clearly, not everyone agrees with that appraisal. If it was your goal to create such, then some people figure there are some issues needing to be dealt with and, surprisingly, they chose to try and discuss it, here on this discussion board. You really should have expected that. Well, given your statement about those people who annoy you with their "negative opinions of everything", I am very glad you took the high road and decided to not go negative. [/QUOTE]
