[QUOTE="payn, post: 9211116, member: 90374"] Yeah, im the type that stops short of telling people what their preferences ought to be, even if I think they don't know what their preferences are. This does sound like you are trying to tell folks you know better, which is probably why you are getting those responses. It's pretty difficult to argue the game is being held back when its more popular than ever. I know you are tired of hearing that, but you keep making an argument that it needs improvement in spite of it. This is what im talking about. It's exaggerated and very alarmist. What is worse is the air of pretention that folks get it finally, but are not going to take it seriously. Yes, its an issue that could be improved, no its not wrecking the game to go without correction to your satisfaction. I know the next stop is thousands online think so too, but keep in mind there are millions of players. After that, it will go to them not knowing they shouldn't want extra chunky spaghetti sauce and round and round we go. My two cents, if you want to get away from these tiresome circular arguments, stop trying to drag everyone into them. You are a smart individual and I really appreciate your perspectives. Making the case that a legion is behind you, or that folks ought to be behind you, but cant understand it, is just going to result in an incendiary interaction. You dont need numbers of people/customers to support your ideas, they are good enough on their own. [/QUOTE]
