human catchers...st 2

absent1 · Post by **absent1** » Tue Mar 01, 2005 11:39 pm

but if a team is bad in leagues and in tourneys they should be rebalanced a little

of course absent, i'm not saying we shouldn't try to balance teams as much as possible. i'm just saying that the perfect balance is an utopy, IMHO.

on the topic at hand, we simply disagree on the "need" to rebalance anything, but i have given you my opinion nevertheless =)

and gus, you have helped me see why str 3 human catchers is a terrible idea, so i appretiate that.

OK Gus, this kind of personal attack is uncalled for and definately against the forum rules (please re-read the sticky on forum ettiquite). Take this as a friendly warning, the next one will be an official one. Let's keep things civil in here.

Alright the issue of everyone fighting is over there was some heat between members names do not need to be given. I am a moderator at another forum and know from my experience there that this type of thing needs to end as peacefully as possible.

Gus what I meant though about ultimate balance is something like all elves have the ability to do their AG4. There has to be something that can be done. I have no idea really but I am saying equally matched coaches using any 2 races you want at TR 100 should be competitive with each other.

gus...never called you any names just said your idea was silly.

and so now you say that all humans need to be st3 and drop the ogre. ....but just before u said the catchers were good at st2...please make up your mind.

he did say if humans got str 3 catchers they would have to drop the ogre, which is a fair statement. so he prefers str 2 catchers.

which is the whole point of this topic....

but he attacks visciously when someone says somehting opposite of him.

gus does say things that i don't think he really means, as he is a non-native speaker and misses some things that most native speakers find offensive, i beleive. When he says "you are stupid" many times it's meaning more like "i don't understand how you could say that" but it just mistranslates i think. I'm kinda used to it from here and in the vault, so thats what i think, but maybe i'm wrong.

he's british--or at least from london.....i think english is first language

absent1 · Post by **absent1** » Wed Mar 02, 2005 2:54 am

i thought on bb.com it said france

well, if he's british he shouldn't be saying half the things he does.

edit: your right, i must be thinking of someone else, woops.

Ok, no need to keep flogging this dead horse, Gus has been warned and consider the "friendly warning" to extend to everyone else here....play nice people. Drop it and get back on topic please.

Gus · Post by **Gus** » Wed Mar 02, 2005 4:21 am

ok............

- i'm not british, i currently live in london, been living there less than one year.

- ok gken, so your telling me my idea is stupid is ok and friendly, but me calling you stupid is not. very great.

- i give up trying to make you understand how i can say those two things: (a) the human team is ok atm (b) if you really wanted to change them, there would be my change. seriously, i can hardly see how you can still keep on arguing on that when you're plain wrong.

- why aren't a couple of others warned as well ? for feeding the flames ? because, afaik, when you say to someone "your comment is stupid" (when it is not) and "your comment is off-topic" (when it is not), you are to expect the person you "attack" in this way will get upset. it is too easy to just go around, saying BULLSHIT, and then complaining when you get beaten at your own game.

don't expect me to react differently the next time people attack my posts without reasons, as gken and skummy did.

edit: saw your last post, forget about the fourth point.

Woah now everyone should just chill and calm down a little bit.

Remember folks we all play this game for the purpose of having fun. After some experience with a team or playing style we are able to give an opinion on them. I myself never playing a human team in competition can't give an arguement from experience only from observations.

But keep things friendly. If any 2 people disagree on a point respect thier opinion but you don't have to agree with it. Also if anyone here isnt a native English speaker and its a second language be happy they can understand what we are talking about. Any person that hasn't spoken this language as a native tongue or on a regular basis might not understand some of the slang or things that might be offensive.

A good point for everyone to remember is he who flames first gets in the most trouble. If you don't retaliate then you look like a mature adult and the other guy looks like an idiot. When one flame happens its natural to fight back then it turns into a "Your an idiot and stupid thread" instead of being about the topic at hand.

The whole threadjacking thing is not entirelly true. In order to change one player on this team the rest of the team might have to be rearranged. Its when the topic goes off on Nurgle, Orcs or any other teams changes that this can be considered threadjacking.

Hey I am not saying we should all get along and be friends but just respect each others knowlege and opinion or yours will not be.

Gus, you went right for the jugular.

For what it's worth, I'm willing to apologize and bury the hatchet if you are.

My points may not have been as succinct as I would have wished, but quite simply they are:

1. Humans are currently very competitive.

2. There will be little support for changing/removing two positionals on human teams.
