[QUOTE="Imaro, post: 7090693, member: 48965"] Okay I'm a little lost here... how am I framing my arguments aggressively?? I am contrasting and critiquing (and have even invited those that prefer the indie playstyle to critique them from their perspective as well, and basically was told those who don't prefer them should critique) but where have I been aggressive? I am speaking to what I feel are the strengths and advantages of my playstyle while also speaking to what I feel are the disadvanatages of the indie playstyle(s) being presented... in the same way you have. Should I take offense you implied traditional playstyles are in-authentic? I didn't... just asked for an explanation on what exactly the claim means. Who am I trying to shame and where is an example of this because again I'm lost as to where this is coming from? 1. It doesn't matter to me, I don't play with you. If you enjoy it by all means yes, if you don't then I'd recommend stopping but it doesn't have a practical effect on me or my gaming 2. Again it doesn't matter to me. 3. Huh? When did I assert anything like this? Apparently not since people with various playstyles have been participating... 4. Shouldn't I as well... this is all about preferences, right? 5. I'm getting the impression it's only ok if we discuss it as long as you can critique my playstyle but I can't give my own critiques as far as your playstyle is concerned. Is that the case? [/QUOTE]
