Yes, and my point was that all of those reasons that you think people are "mad" (I put that in quotes because I don't think anyone is actually mad, more frustrated and/or tired of hearing the comments) are wrong, and actually the fact that those are the reasons you believe people get upset when you post is pretty offensive.

+1.

It's frustrating to hear people say that things are poorly designed or an NPE or whatever when they don't even play that game and haven't in years. I don't play your format so I don't make comments on what is bad in it, it would be nice to get the same respect. Or at least not have EVERY post you make be about something bad about the official format.

When you are exclusively negative it goes from giving constructive criticism to trolling, and when the way you react to people disagreeing with your comments is by saying that they are wrong and dumb it goes to just flaming.

Oh it's coming.....I feel it. Another locked thread....

Wait Bill can ban people? Who gave him that power? Why wasn't I consulted?

gonna pull a page out of bills book, and respond after saying I would leave it alone:

no I am not saying that you can ban me or do anything to me, I am saying go ahead and message all the designers to rally to have me banned or my posts deleted.

I know bill can't ban or delete people's posts or no one that ever disagrees with him would have an account or be able to say anything lol.

We would most definitely be interested in what you had to say.
As far as not playing standard in a while, this is something that Legacy players have discussed and some of us already joined up for the NZ tournament. I have been trying to find a time to playtest with sithbot for epic III stuff but its a bad time for sithbot. So I, at least, am still interested in playing Standard and will give most new sets a few chances to see if it has evolved to a place that my personal tastes like. That is why I stay on the boards.

So the interest is there and will remain there.

since bill or leshippy isn't here to do it, I will break my vow one last time. this is something DeathsBaine just posted on Jawajuice, I thought I would share:

I find the discussion on bloomilk very interesting about this topic, especially since I am banned and cannot talk on there lol. Anyways, thinking about it more and more and, I personally do not care what the people on bloomilk think about me, but I do like having more people to play against on vassal, and in tournaments and what not so here are some of my thoughts:

1. I am suggesting that we just stay away from bloomilk except to posts links to tournaments or to set up games on vassal, or to use the squad builder, and custom pieces sections. Basically I am calling for a drop of their forum section. I am suggesting that we do not comment on their stuff at all anymore, and just let their version of the game be.

2. If we are dropping the v-sets pieces all together we need to make list of the V-set pieces that are designed well and remake versions of them to replace them in our set, some are quite important like the sep Cad Bane, who I think can be left just the way he is.

3. If we do drop the v-set stuff altogether I am for making new factions after movies start getting released and stuff.



I am suggesting these things because I do not want the relationship that Spry, Pego, and some others have to be strained as they want to be able to function in both versions, and that is their right. the majority of us do not need bloomilk other then for things listed above, so lets make it easier on those that do want to participate in both.

just my thoughts.

I am going to write something trying to not be offensive

Lou posted a thread about struggling with the game. Where would it have gone if I did not keep the talk going? The same thing was going to happen. the same core of people where giving stump speeches about the game and how it has found balance and things. All fine, but no one was listening. Lou had to to come back to the thread to show them exactly what he was talking about like three times because all people were doing was trying to deflect and defend and cast the game in a different light.

If not forced by someone, the point would fall on deaf ears, again. That formula is very annoying to someone like me who has very similar views to Lou.

So, with that said, I wish that in the future I will not be blunt and aggressive and others actually listen to other people when they make a claim/complaint and not rise to the defense all the time.

i think that will go a long way.

Deleted some posts. There was likley some collateral of posts that quoted the posts I deleted. This thread was on thin ice from the get go due to history. And what happens on other sites is irrelevant to this site.

Where can I find out more about what all this legacy/legends/standard business? Was there an announcement somewhere at one point? Is it being discussed currently? How many licks does it take to get to the center of a tootsie pop?
