[QUOTE="Mistwell, post: 6296852, member: 2525"] First, I doubt that was your intent behind what you posted. It wasn't you speculating about something - you assumed that something already existed it seemed. I'm guessing you hadn't even read the article when you posted? If you had, then they wrote an article outright saying "here are some non-mechanical things", and your honest reaction wasn't just to make up "there will be mechanical benefits", but then you jumped another step beyond that and claimed there would be an imbalance in the mechanical benefits offered and you were actively worried about it? No. Just no. That's completely fabricating stuff, and then putting a fabrication on top of your fabrication, just to crap on something for the game. You're not even pretending to discuss what they wrote anymore. That would mean we've now officially gotten to the point where there is nothing they can write that you won't crap on - because you've just admitted you will simply make up something bad, and then something else bad on top of that, no matter what they say. So, I think it actually looks better if you just say you hadn't read the article and thought it was saying something about mechanical benefits it hadn't. Because the alternative - that looks much worse. [/QUOTE]
